TILDEN, RICHARDS MTIIALIiET DIBLES TITLE Mrs. Mallory Again Defeats Miss Wilis, but Is Pushed, By United News LONGWOOD CRICKET CLUB GROUNDS, CHESTNUT .HILL, Mass., Aug. 30.—William T. Tilden II of Philadelphia and Vincent R.chards of Yonkers. N. Y., won the American lawn tenn.s championship in doubles for the third time here Tuesday. They decisively defeated Gerald L. Patter- | son and Pat O'Hara Wood of Austral.a in four fast sets in the final round of the tournament. The scores were: | 4-6, 6-1, 6-3, 6-4. The Australian team had placed its | hopes on the terrific speed of Patterj son s driving and the ferocity of his I service, but he was wild and erratic. | That the Australians won the first set was due in a large measure to O'Hara Wood’s sensational volleying and Richards' uncerta.n start. After the first set Richards settled down and gave Tilden able assistance in running out the match. Patterson's poor showing boded ill for the Australians' chances when they meet Tilden and Richards again In the doubles for the Davis cup. IJ had been planned to take Wood out of the Davis cup doubles If Tilden and Richards won Tuesday, but Wood’s showing was so good and Patterson’s so weak that it was believed advisable to substitute Anderson for Patterson instead, when the two teams clash for the international trophy. Anderson and Wood have proved i their ability to work together by win ning the doubles championship at Wimbledon this summer. Bill and Molla Win Mrs. Molla BJurstcdt Mallory of New York partnered Tilden to victory in the national mixed doubles. They defeated Miss Helen Wills of Berkeley. Cal., and Howard O. Kinsey of San Francisco, 8-4, 63. mainly through Tilden’s all court covering and his ter rific speed. Arnold W. Jones of Providence yield ed only one game in winning the national junior singles championship in straight se.ts from Lewis N White of Austin, Texas. Jones speeded away to take thirteen straight games. Little David O’Loughlin of Pitts burgh won the national boys’ singles championship front Malcolm T.

BASEBALL COMMENT, GOSSIP Indians in Midst of Late-Season Winning Streak— Baird Tops Flitters in Series at Louisvilie —Other Sport Notes. By EDDIE ASH Well, well! The Indians havo won six out of the last seven games. A late season winning streak, aa it were. Three out of four from the Senators, three out of three from the Colonels. The boys are wielding their bats for a lot of damage. They knocked the Louisville gang off twice In the Colonels’ own yard Tuesday, 5 to 4 an d 15 to i Causey and Cavet twirled the first and Petty the second. Petty's pitching was splendid, the southpaw not permitting a hit until the sixth inning.
Baird got six in the two games, one for the circuit. That boy apparently has taken anew lease on his 1922 dia rnond job. He poled out nine saftics in three games against the Colonels, and the other Indians caught the spirit and the Tribe batting has been of the early season variety. The Indians are about ready to spring back into third place again, and if they make it and their batting spree continues, they'll stand a good chance of moving into second. No game at Louisville today. The ponies were scheduled to open the fall meeting at Churchill Downs. Weather clea ; track heavy. A double-header will be staged Thursday, after which the Indians and Colonels will come to Indianapolis to open a series Saturday. Strange things happen, as Tom Simms says Doug Baird was hit or, the thumb while batting in the second inning of the second game Tuesday, j but Umpire Murray thought he was stalling and refused to allow him his base. Dough then cracked out a home 1 run, two mates scoring ahead of him. j The Saints bumped into more trouble at K. C Tuesday and took a I sev ere beat ng, 11 to 1. Wright and | Becker got homers. Circuit clouts by Wade and Mayer won for the Millers over the Brewers. Chick Galloway and Bing Miller got round trip blows Tuesday, Galloway's clout in the tenth winning the game.

Tho four were scheduled to meet in the Davis cup doubles next week, but the Aussies will probably re-arrange their forces for the world's competition.

In her defeat in Boston Tuesday M‘ss Wills gave Mrs. Mallory much more trouble than in their match in New York recently. The crowd continually applauded Miss Wills and Mrs. Mallory left the courts in a rage—a winner but a loser. Her star is fading.
