MISS WILLS AND OTHERS AWAIT PLAY IN LONDON
Competition for Wightman Cup to Start at Wimbledon Courts —Suzanne Present to Gain Pointers. By HENRY FARRELL, United Press Staff Correspondent ♦ LONDON. June 17.—ller blush hidden beneath the brovnest of tanned cheeks, Helen Wills, American woman tennis champion, was ready for her tennis fight as she and her companions on the American team got in some final touches for the struggle for the Wightman cup which starts at Wimbledon Wednesday.
The enti - team, which includes Miss Wills, Molla Mallory, Miss Eleanor Goss, and Mrs. Marion, Z. Jessup, is in the finest physical condition although the players were hampered by poor weather recently from getting in all the training they would have liked. Mile. Suzanne Lenglen is due to arrive Wednesday to take a look at Miss Wills’ play in the Wightman cup matches. The French girl is scheduled to play several exhibition matches but has not yet promised to defend her singles title at Wimbledon. Lenglen will play in the doubles, but not in the singles, it is believed, unless she feels she can defeat Miss Wills. SHADE WINS ON POINTS Dave Outpoints Cowboy Smith at East Chicago.

GONZALES MAKING GOOD IN RETURN TO MAJORS Veteran Catcher Rejoins Cards After Long Sojourn on Other Clubs —Rickey Rates Cuban Real Star. By BILLY EVANS Wise men change their minds; fools never—or words to that effect. Anyway, Miguel A. Gonzales is a big league catcher once more. How many ball players have returned to the big circus on the brink of the 40-year mark? Not many.
Yet Mike Gonzales is back in the National League as a first string catcher for the St. Louis Cardinals. Branch Rickey, director of the Cardinals, is the one who fits the “Wise men change their minds; fools never” phrase. When Rickey decided to retire Jack Hendricks as manager at the close of the 1018 season and direct his club from the bench, his catching staff was composed of Gonzales and Frank Snyder. Shifted C atching Staff The Louisville Colonels had Vernon Clemons. Rickey wanted him and he acquired the husky catcher by trading Dixie Davis and Bruno Betzel to the Colonels. With Clembns installed as the first-string receiver Frank Snyder was traded to the Giants for Feedinand Schupp, while Gonzales was sold for 810,000 cash. For five years Clemons handled the bulk of the catching for the Cardinals. Gonzales became a benchwarmer for McGraw and later was sent to St. Paul In the American Association. Kates Gonzales a Star Time brings many changes. Clemons had lived his life as a b’g leaguer in Rickey’s opinion and another catcher was needed. He failed Us an effort to land Mickey O'Neil of the Braves and ‘‘Butch’’ Henline of the Phillies. What was next? All of Rickey's friends advised him to dicker for Gonzales and the Superbas, who had bought the Cuban during the winter from the Cincinnati Reds for SIO,OOO, grabbed the bait. Thus, Gonzales returned to the manager who had cast him aside five years ago. And Rickey now says that there isn’t a catcher in either big league who is more valuable than Gonzales.

CREW FROM FAR NORTHWEST PICK OF BOATSHARPS Six Universities Compete in Poughkeepsie’s Feature Event. r By FRANK GETTY, United Press Stn/T Correspondent POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y.. June 17. —Regatta day dawned fair with ideal rowing conditions for the fifteen crews of six universities who were to contest in three races over the Hudson today. All morning long. pennanted yachts moved about the smooth expanse of water beneath the towering bluffs opposite Poughkeepsie, gradually forming the race lanes. Between 50.000 and 75,000 spectators were expected, if the weather held fair. Favorites at 2 to 1 The Washmgton crew*, champions from the coast and winners at the twenty-sixth annual intercollegiate regatta here last year, was a favorite to repeat its triumph. The westerners were favorites at 2 to 1 over the big Penn crew, their strongest rivals. Others in the varsity race. whißb was to start at 6 p. m. daylight saving time, were Syracuse, Cornell, Columbia and Wisconsin. The Lucky I>ane Coach Callow's huskies are not the smooth-rowing aggregation that triumphed last year, but there appears to be even more pow*er in this year’s boat. The w*esterners drew* the lucky lane. No. 2. Jim Rice, coach of Penna, and Jim Ten Eyck. Syracuse mentor, reported their charges in good shape for the afternoon struggle. Dad Vail.

By MILTON BRONNER .VA’4 Service Writer IfTL’KLIN. June 17.—Paris and 11 the Parisians may be greatt ly excited this summer over thp Olympic games of 1924, but the residents of this capital of the Irish Free State are quite confident that their ancient city will be equally a world mecca for athletes from all over the globe—attending the Tailteann Games. The difference between Paris and Dublin will lie that the French city will have games open to people of all races, whereas the Tailteann Games are open only to men of Irish birth, descent or residence. It is intended to be a brilliant revival of a custom that preceded even the Greek Olympiad. In fact, these games were instituted in Ireland 600 years before the Christian era. In keeping with historical precedents, they will begin Aug. 1, with a great public ceremonial, and continue until Aug. 18. Competitions will be held in all lines of sports and the general committee, headed by J. J. Walsh, has received assurances that hundreds of athletes from all over the world will attend. Big teams will come from Ihe I’nited States, Canada. Australia and New Zealand. The Irish In the big industrial cities of England and Scotland are sending their crack athletes and there will even be teams from faraway Argentina. This town and the neighboring places expect more than 150,000 visitors during August and extensive preparations are being made to house and feed them. The Tailteann committee told me that from America alone they expected over 30,000 visitors. TUiMNEY TO BATTLE CARP Gene ind Georges to Meet in New York in July. By Ut ited Press NEW YORK.

THURSTON STAR OF CHICAGO SOX Pitcher Steps Into Breach for White Hose, By XI A Service CHICAGO, June 37.—fine of the biggest sensations of the early seai son in the American League has been j Hollis Thurston. White Sox pitcher, j Thurston's performance on the | mound has exceeded expectations, j And then some! At present he ranks as the one | best bet on the Comiskey twirling .staff. With Urban Faber ailing | Thurston has stepped into the breach j and made good with a vengeance. In a series with the Yankees the big fellow literally stood the Huggins outfit on its head. Ti >rstdu. came to the White Sox last ear from the Browns. F, a pitcher, Thurston is an exceptionally good batter. He hit .316 In 1923. l.'hle, Cleveland, and Walberg, Athletics, were the only hurlers to obtain a higher clouting average. Whether Thurston will keep up his good work is problematical. At any rate, his work has been one of the bright spots in the White Sox play j to date. STATE BICYCLE RACES Eliminations and Championships in Two' Classes at Fairground.

BA LTV LIGHTWEIGHT IS HERE TO START ANEW
IEON’ARD MAHONEY, lightweight boxer, of Baltimore, i- who is now in Indianapolis, j is one of those persons who believes I firmly in the old adage that you’ve ! got to go away.-fiom your home j town to make ■good. Mahoney arose |to prominence three, years ago in Baltimore. He was hailed as the | next lightweight champion, whipped | everyone that came along and then i suddenly fell out of the picture. Again Mahoney climbed to the heights and again he dropped out. He wasn't knocked out and he wasn't whipped very badly in any fight he ever had. Mahoney says it was his own i fault. His friends said the same, i Mahoney didn't pay strict enough attention to the ring game. Manj agers said he was hard to handle | because he wouldn't follow instrucI tions in training. Some days Mahoney didn't show up at all. The, managers couldn't get sore with him. for he’d sing them i a song and they would forgive him. But the point was they weren’t getting anywhere Mahoney and the j managers. Mahoney was the boy with too j many friends. It was the same way when Ma- ! honey went to Mt. St. Mary’s Col-

The Indians took a defeat Monday, 4 to 3, when Pitcher Hamilton, Miller southpaw*, slow-balled the home boys. The Tribesmen’s 1 washday performance was slightly offcolor. The old pep and dash was missing. Indians Weaken George Smith, Tribe starting pitcher, wasn’t very effective, but neither w*as his support. His mates were not on their toes. The Millers won the game in the sixth inning, when they scored three runs. A badly misjudged fly fell back of Jones for two bases and an error on the infield aided the Miller rally. Eller relieved Smith in this inning. The Indians got only six hits off Hamilton. He didn’t have much speed, but he teased the home talent with a southpaw- curve and change of pace. Krueger got two of the six hits, one being good for the circuit. Ernie Was Ready Hamilton tried to push one by Ernie, but Ernie w*as prepared and slapped the sphere to deep left. Rondeau lost the ball in the sun for a moment and ii took a high hop over the low* fence. B - ~“ URWELL and Hill w*ere to get the Tribe pitching assign ments in the double bill thii afternoon. Krueger w*as to catch one game and Otto Miller the other, It was to be Miller's first start bohand the bat for the Indians. Miller batted for Christenbury in the ninth Monday and singled Whelan who had batted for Eller permitted the third strike to pass unmolested. Bob Connery, scout for the New York Yankees and Charlie Stia Philly scout, viewed the Monday fracas. j Manager Mike Kelley of the Mil lers is expecting talent from the Cincy Reds. He has something coming in the Critz deal. The Indians fell back one position in the _race as a result of that Monlay defeat. Louisville beat the Saints and ousted the Tribe from second place.
