TOURNAMENT NOTES By nightfall of the sixty-four players wh, swung into action in the singles Mon- : day only eight will be !ri(. The general : oiiipion is that Big Bii: Tlld-n and Gerald Patterson, the hard-hitting Australian, will meet in the final round. ■ Ssg-alowsky had an "on " day and defeated his conqueror in the Bur Ten championship. Eddie Wilson of Chicago University. 6-2. 10-8. Wilson made a wonder-1 ful stand In the second set For sheer Kameiress and fighting ability he is unexcelled. Leo Kurxrock. the youthful Butler Collefe comer, proved the big surprise of the day with his splendid game against Brian ; I C. Norton, former South African Davis cup representative. Kurzrock stood the ; gaff in splendid shape and his hard driving was decidedly effective. Norton won. j 6-2. 6-4. but was foreed to use about all j he. had. Kurzrock's improvement has been phenomenal. Patterson had a lot of trouble solving the peculiar side wheel. shoulder high service of Frambes of Coltiml <• Apparently the Australian never had run j up against the style before He won deiytJL of his first returns into the net or of bounds. ■CThere was a lot of disappointment when th’e crowd learned that Zenzn Shimizu. thc| little Japanese star, who made such a hit; with the crowd two years ago. would be; unable to be here. The boys and junior* swung into action early today and the courts filled up with . the entrants and their gangs long before the hour set for play. Some mighty high-grade tennis was dis-! played when R. E Schlesinger. m-mber of the Australian Davis Cup team, and Ralph Burdick, the local hard hitter. clashed. Schlesinger won 6-4. 6-4. A trifle more I sieadiuess and slightly better control of the ball were the deciding factors. George Starbuek and Myron Knhn put up a surprisingly stiff ba'.r.e in the doub'-s against the Australian pa r Patterson and | Schlesinger. The final score si or 6-1. 7 6-2. the second set being a thriller from first to last. The local boys played some I flashy tennis to hold the Davis cup team as well as they did. To date there have been no upsets Dope has run true and the favorites have come ' through invariably. As usual Johnny Hennessey is the jy.g Indianapolis hope Johnny has been going ; - fast so far and his game is up to its old- j time high standard.

Feature Games of the Past July 2, 1885 HOW SAM THOMPSON BROKE IN
On July 2, 1885, Outfielder Moriarty of Detroit crashed against the fence and went down and out. Uniforms being scarce, Moriarty's outfit was donned by a gangling youngster named Sam Thompson, who made one hit and one run. Within the week Sam had driven out 11 safeties in 26 times up for an average of .423. and at the end of the season he led Detroit in batting. For the next dozen years Sam ranked high among the mighty hitters of the game, while poor Moriarty was never heard of in major league circles from the day he crashed into the fence. The score:

THIRD TOLEDO STRUGGLE LAST HERE FOR WEEKS Tribe Departs for Louisville Thursday Morning Petty Excites Major Scouts —Burwell Pitches Today, By EDDIE ASH Tribe fans were to get their last glimpse of their favorites today until July 25, when the Bushmen will return from a long road trip and battle the New York Americans, featuring Babe Ruth, in an exhibition game at Washington Park. As the curtain fell this afternoon on the Indians’ long home stay, the rubber struggle of the Toledo series was on the program.
Bill Burwell was believed to be Manager jßush’s choice for the flinging job today in the wind-up affair with Jimmy Burke’s Hens. He put over a winner in his last time out, which was Saturday, when he beat the Senators.

The TribeColonel double header in Louisville July 4 is expected to attract a number of local fans to Derbytown.

Jess Petty gave the fans something to rave over Tuesday, when he downed the Hens. 5 to 1. His southpaw flipper was “right” and he goose-egged the visitors until the ninth; It was Petty’s fourteenth victory of the season, and he has only three defeats charged against him. .Jess Attracts ’Em Big league scouts are excited over Petty's record. The St. Louis Curds, Boston Red Sox and Ciney Reds are eager to do business with the Indians for Jess’ services, but just at present Owner Smith is unwilling to place a price on him. Fans may rest assured, however, that Petty won’t be permitted to depart for the “big show” until after the 1924 season. mHE three A. A. front runners won Tuesday—Colonels, Indians and Saints. The Saints will have an advantage for a long period now, as they remain at home for an extended stretch. Petty stopped Paul Strand, the outfielder who hit .394 in the Pacific Coast League last season. Strand, now with the Hens, was up four times Tuesday. With three Hens aboard in the eighth Strand tried hard to clean the sacks, but
