States. There were disappointments, too, in the defeat of R. Norris Williams at tennis and the failure of Garrett Gilmore to repeat his victory over Jack Beresford in the single sculls. Two other American boats lost in the races on the Seine, but the day's average of American victories was a good one for our representatives. Meanwhile the American swimmers were breaking records in the Olympic pool. Johnny Weissmuller, winning the first heat of the semifinals of the 400-meter free style, 3<n anew Olympic mark of 5:13 6-10.

A., was put out of the women’s tennis singles today by Miss Katherine McKane, England, who defeated the Am-rican woman. 6-2, 6-0. Asa result of the Americans’ protest 'Wednesday in which they were solidly backed up by the British, the tennis players found the courts today decorated with shiny, galvanized water buckets, galvanized pitchers and pjenty of towels. The organizers. realizing that withdrawal of Miss Helen Wills and Miss McKane would mean breaking up the tournament, had rushed these improve-* ments. Consequently, as the weather was cooler, and ideal for tennis, the Americans and British agreed to waive the question of shower baths ■or the mcment and go ahead with tennis. The race for four-oared boats, with coxswain, was won by Switzerland, with France second and the United States third. The winners' time was 7:18 2-5.

In both the eleventh and fourteenth rounds Ledoux was knocked down, but he refused to quit. He was given a great hand for his gameness.

It is a freaid schedule that doesn’t fit in very wet] with the great race. Its peculiarity lies in the fact that with the season half over, a number of clubs have completed their list of games with each-other. For in stance; On July 6 Washington completed its home schedule of eleven games with New York. Senators Shouldn't Mind On that date the AYashington fans saw the Yankees for the last time. Incidentally Washington has already played eight of its eleven games at New York. At this writing the Yankees and Nationals are strong pennant contenders, yet only three of the twen-ty-two games scheduled between the clubs remain unplayed. That is unfortunate, because the fans in both cities would flock to any series between the two clubs. Case of Detroit, Cleveland , Detroit and Cleveland are great ri vals. Both are in the running for the American League pennant, yet the fans of these two cities have but little to enthuse over as far as seeing these two clubs oppose each other. On July 7 Detroit finished its schedule of eleven games in Cleveland. While Cleveland has only three more games to play in Detroit early in September. Thus four of the contending teams, natural rivals, have practically fin ished their season schedule with each other. This is to be regretted in a race that promises io many thrills before the finish. The 1924 schedule is certainly a freak one, far from befitting the close race.

PAUL, July 17. —Baseball fans of this city regretted the departure of the Indians Wednesday night. The Hoosiers were here five days and dropped four games to the Saints. Aside from enjoying the rush tactics of the home club, the fans were royally entertained by Ownie Bush’s scrappy outfit. Nearly every struggle produced some thrills.
The Tribesmen left here hurriedly Wednesday night and beat it for Kansas City, where they were to open a series with Doc Lavan’s team today. It was a long jump, bui the Hooriers were glad to leave these parts. Lost in Ninth The Saints won the Wednesday contest here when the Tribe hurlers “choked up” in the ninth. Three runs were rushed across and Nick Allen’s boys won, 8 to 7. Fitzsimmons and Petty were guilty. For the locals, the veteran Joe Riggert was the hero. He batted for Wade in the ninth and won the day’s laurels by cracking the fence with a solid swipe. Wade is a southpaw hitter and when he came up Fitzsimmons was jerked and Petty sent in. Manager Allen withdrew Wade and called for Riggert, a right-handed batter. Riggert delivered and drove two runs across. Louisville, St. Paul and Indianapolis are now battling in a near three-way tie. The Millers cut down the Colonels and the Saints checked the Hoosiers. It's a wild scramble. The Tribesmen have had several opportunies to take the lead recently, but they have slipped in the pinches. Ernie’s Two Homers Ernie Krueger poled two home runs Wednesday for the Tribe batting feature. His second circuit swat came in the eighth and placed his team out in front. The Indians scored five runs in that rally and it certainly was a pleasant shock to the fans when the Saints came from behind In the ninth. Christensen opened the Saint ninth and popped out. Morse singled, but was forced by Neun. Dressen singled, sending Neun to third. Haas beat out an infield hit, scoring Neun Petty relieved Fitzsimmons. Riggert batted for Wade. Bang! Manager Bush was banished by Umpire f’inneran in the sixth inning. Haas stole home and Bush claimed that Dixon, who was batting, interfered with Catcher Krueger. Bush appeared to be. correct in his contention, but Finneran stood pat and ordered Ownie off the field. Bush slipped into the bleachers and gave his “signs” from there until Umpire Connolly spotted him in the eighth and ordered him to go to the clubhouse. Markle Goes Astray By Times Special NEW YORK. July 17.—Pitcher Clift Markle. obtained by the Yankees from the St. Paul team, has gone astray. Manager Huggins says he doesn’t know where Markle has gone, but expresses the opinion the hurler will return. A musem¥nts
