Siiiiiiffiiiiiiiiiinnnmiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiinnniniinmiiiininniniiiinininin! TIRRIN’ the DOPE By VEDDER GARD t 1—

r" 1 UR prediction of PhiladelOphia in the American and ___ Pittsburgh in the National looks better every day, but we are not yet ready to boast about it. So many things can happen in the stretch and both clubs 'a the past have been known to .lop as the final test came. It does not look as though the Pirates can be headed because there is no one to turn the irick. The Giants are far from showing any signs of picking up the lost morale and punch which has characterized their play in recent years. They do not look like winners. The Gotham club is more wobbly than for many seasons. Some of the veterans are slipping, injuries have hurt, and the pitchers are finding the going extremely rough. The team, after losing Wednesday, is five and one-half games behind Pittsburgh, which is quite some ways to the rear at this stage of proceedings. The Reds look like a third-place outfit. The Athletics refuse to crack and have a two and one-half game advantage in the American League. They have punch and good pitching. Washington keetps close on their trail, however, and a slight let-down might mean the second pennant for the Senators. The race in (he younger major league fa is far from decided, but PhiladelW phi a, on present form, has the edge. * * * O' ' ‘ : ACROSS THE BOARD TODAY : o 0 Mud was king at Coney Island track on Wednesday, end Across the Board s name was the same. Two of the horses played. Ice and court Lady, "'-re scratched because of the change In track conditions, and the third. Accumulator, failed to accumulate any mono- for the bank roll. Accumulator ran like a real horse until the stretch and then quit. Fifteen doin'rs went with him in the also ran dans The B. R. Is now $439.25. We wish to sing a little today. ShamSoo. the horse we have Played twice efore and got the “air.” finished seconrt in th* race we had A ecu in ill at o r and paid $31.60 to place and *25.40 to show. We “almost” played Shampoo, but finally decided on the wrong one—as usual. . . . , Todav we can’t pass up a hunch in the first race at Devonshire. It is one nf those uncertain 2 -year-old affairs, hut Lou Shank is running. If it were “Lew.” instead of “Lou." we’d put $lO across the board on him. But Lou Shank ib so close we will plw S5 win. place and show. Our Indianapolis Shank is such a good runner (except for Governor) we can’t let this one ko by. At Coney we will play Blue Sprite in the first and Bridesmaid in the sixth—ss win and place on each. * * * What’s a conscientious “gatecrasher” to do in a situation that Will arise on Saturday night at 4091 Speedway Rd? The Beeson A. 0. is staging a boxing show of thirty-six rounds FREE OF CHARGE. * * * mUESDAY on the Circle Johnny Hennessey was welcomed home by proud Blndianapolis citizens. The mayor rand civic leaders told John how proud they were to have such a distinguished personage back home after doing his city proud in foreign lands. Friends, neighbors and admirers vied with one another in extending congratulations to the tennis star who represented the United States in the Wimbledon tourney in England. Hennessey gratefully acknowledged all the kind expressions, but he was evidently ill at ease and wished it was all over. He was even slightly embarrassed when his mother tried unsuccessfully to smooth hack liiis tousled hair before his picture was taken. That was one home-coming. The real homecoming will be later. A little after dusk some evening a young chap from a north side home will stroll down to the comer of Twenty-Fifth St. and Central Ave. A number of young men will be congregated there. As Johnny approaches with that rather gangling stride the bunch will look up with the air of having expected him about that time of evening. There will be a few casual “Lo’s”—no effusion whatever, and very little to indicate the newcomer has been absent from the comer lately. “How’d the Indians come out today?” Johnny will ask. And after receiving an answer the conversation will drift along on general Peoples. “Wallie get his flivver going yet?” “How’s things look at Butler for football this fail?” “Rice ever get around any more?” “Saw Ed Dietrich today.” “Hank still laying brick?” “John, you sure that was bad WATER in England that made you sick?” After an hour or so of this with TENNIS hardly ever mentioned Johnny will stroll back toward home and the old "Cockeye” gang of Twenty-Fifth St. and Central Ave. will scatter here and there. That will be the REAL JtiOMECOMING. • * • Ethel Lackfle, the Illinois A. O. Olympic 100-meter champion, who appears in the Ripple tournament tins week-end, is just over an attack of scarlet fever.

The second round of the junior doubles also went off without upsets.

JOHNSTON AGAIN IS WINNER Defeats Richards Second Time, but Davis Cup Rating in Doubt. By Henry L. Farrell United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK. Aug. 13.—After forcing Vincent Richards and Billy Johnston to play two hard test matches to decide the number two place on the American Davis cup singles tennis team, officials of the United States Lawn Tennis Association today reported a final decision must await an executive session. In a terrific five-set match last Saturday which nearly caused the collapse of the two stars, Johnston defeated Richards and again he proved his superiority over the youthful second ranking player by winning easily in straight sets Wednesday. Johnst&si proved beyond all doubt that he Is a better singles player right now than Richards and If the association should fail to nominate him as Bill Tilden’s helper in the singles matches, there would be a violent protest from the Johnston rooters and they are by no mean* confined to his home territory In California. In the test matches that were staged to decide the team that would play in the doubles match. TilJen and Johnston defeated Richards and Dick Williams, and now the committee is facing the doubt that Johnston is physically able to play in both the singles and the doubles matches. If so much had not been taken out of him In his singles tests against Richards there might have been no doubt about his ability to carry such a heavy burden. The committee has to name the team that will defend the cup on Aug. 20, but It does not have to name the actual line-up. The committee probably will tell the team privately how they are to play in the challenge round, but the announcement does not have to be made public until twenty-four hours before the matches.

Saints Trimmed in Double-Header Wednesday Four More Games Left in Series. By Eddie Ash The Indians got away to a flying start in their series with the Saints Wednesday and made a substantial gain in the struggle to bolster their second place position. A single contest was to be staged today and there will be only one game Friday. The series will close Saturday with a double-header, which will mark the last appearance of the Saints here this season.

Manager Bush and Pitcher Sche-1 manske are on the suspended list as a result of kidding Umpire Flnneran Tuesday when he made a joke decision at the plate In the wind-up of the Milwaukee series. The suspension af Schemanske places the Indians in a bad way for pitching strength. Hill and Burwell worked Wednesday and turned in victories, 6 to 1 and 4 to 3, and Henry was slated to twirl today. * Tribe Rallies Min The Tribesmen won the first contest Wednesday by rallying In the seventh for two runs, and again in the eighth for four markers. Fullerton was bumped hard when the Indians finally solved him. The Bushmen also came from behind In the second battle and won by knocking Beall off the rubber In the eighth. Beall threw a “mean” curve and looked like a winner until Burwell damaged him with a double after one out in the eighth Matthews and Allen followed with hits and McQuaid relieved Beall. Sicking then produced a single that drove in what proved to be the winning run. Klugrnan Snares Foul The games were thrillers from a local viewpoint and there was some keen fielding. Matthews had seven putouts in center in the first struggle. The game-ending out In the wind-up game was made by Klugrnan, who snared a high twisting foul near the Indians’ dugout. Koenig, first up in the ninth of the closing fray, hit a looping short fly to left on which Schreiber darted back and made a sparkling running catch with his back to the stands. Pug Allen poled two doubles in the second game. Eddie Sicking got a single and triple. Schmandt drove in the runs In the seventh Inning of the first contest that put the Indian in the lead. Durst was the day’s batting star for St. Paul, with a triple and single In the first contest and two doubles and a single In the closing game. The Card* nosed the Robins out of fourth place in the National League by a fraction of a point when they took a doubleheader from the Phillies. 9 to 2 and 8 to 4. Hornsby hit his thirtieth homer.
