July 24.—Conrie Mack is a glutton for punish ment. Despite his ante-season prediction that he would positively finish second, it looks as if he would again be last. Mack doesn’t care to get out of the managerial game with a failure on his hands. His present club is so rated. In an effort to get some new faces it is rumored that Mack intends parting with several of his veteran players, the most most notable being catcher “Cy” Perkins. Rated the best backstop In the league a few seasons back. Perkins is getting no better. He has apparently outlived his usefulness In Philadelphia, and it is said Mack intends to get rid of him while the trading is good. Other veterans who have failed are in the same basket. With A. A.

then observe closely what he is doing. There is a W’ay of hitting him the harder balls wrlth a twist on them that will in most cases reveal his faults. Then it's a case of building up the stroke by using what is best therein and adding to it what it lacks. Few average players know what keeps them back. They only go by the scores of their games. They can beat Brown, but Jones or Smith, as the case may be. can beat them. What is the main trouble with most of them? Suppose the question was sent out to all average players. Some would doubtless answer that they overhit, or that they didn’t keep their eyes on the hall, or that they always faced the net when they made their strokes. The Common Error The most common fault in tennis may be likened to pressing in golf. The chief fault In tennis, in short, holding the racket too lightly. The balls are forced over the net by strength of wrist and by muscle and brawn. If you will tally the number of outs In any set you will be able to see that there is some truth in this statement. -* Take the first serve of the average player. Does he get it into the service court with regularity? He does not and he doesn’t mind. He loves that first serve, for It Is his one chance to soak one ball with full power without the loss of a possible point. Get control first and then speed.
CRITICS BELIEVE IT’S GOODBY FOR GEORGESTONIGHT Tunney Big Favorite, and if Gene Wins Carp Probably Will Retire. V By FRANK GETTY, United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, July 24.—Dame Opportunity, who has knocked so loudly and so often at the door of Georges Carpentier, will give one last double-rap tonight—and if Georges doesn't rise to the occasion, it looks like curtains for the most picturesque ring career since that of John L. Sullivan. Women Don’t Count Carpentier ever has been the darling of the women, but on this particular visit Dame Opportunity is accompanied by quite a stalwart young man, one Gene Tunney of Greenwich Village, whom the Frenchman must sock on the button before the girl is his. The- soldier-fighter of France, who reached the heights of his fifteen years of fistic endeavor when he met Jack Dempsey in Jersey City three years ago, and who has been going down hill ever since, boxes' Tunney at the Polo Grounds in what ring followers believe will be his last appearance in an important contest — unless he wins. The odds are 3 to 2 that Georges won’t win. No Title at Stake The title held by Tunney is not at stake in this fifteen round bout, for the boxing commission will not recognize the Frenchman as an American champion, but both fighters have agreed to enter the ring within the light heavyweight limit of 175 pounds. Georges has promised to retire if Tunney beats him tonight. He can well afford to do so gracefully, for he has fought the best men of the ring from flyweights to super heavyweights.
