INDIANS SOON TO GO ON ROAD-WEEKLY SPARRING AT FORT TONIGHT

JEN N IS MATCHES RESUMED Helen Wills Pitted Against Mrs. C. J. Hubbard in East Today. Pu United Press FOREST HILLS. L. 1., Aug. 18.— Survivors of the first round *of the women's national tennis .championship resumed play in the second round today at the West Side Tennis Club. The feature matches on today’s program were: Miss Mary K. Browne against Miss Margaret Blake and Miss Helen Wills, national champion, against Mrs. C. J. Hubbard, at 2 p. m. Mrs. Lambert Chambers against Miss Edith Sigourney and Miss Kathleen McKane against Mrs. Frank Godfrey at 3 p. m. , Wills and Browne Miss Wills and Miss Browne against Mrs. Molla Mallory and Miss Marion Williams, and Mrs. May Sutton Bundy and Miss Mary Ryan against Mrc. DeForest Candee and Mrs. S. *. Weaver, at 4 p. m. Mrs. Charlotte Hosmer and Miss Helen Jacobs against Miss McKane and Miss Evelyn Colyer, and Mrs. •ambers and Mrs. E. H. Harvey ainst Miss Eleanora Sears and Mrs. Godfrey, at 5 p. m. , The coarse squawk of the gallery which beset Miss Helen Wills, the defending champion in the final match of the Wightman Cup Tournament last was stilled and Miss Wills, the first woman so mistreated in an American tennis tournament since the, historic guying of* Mile. Suzanne Lenglen, emerged- from the episode more popular than ever. Only two of the seeded players, comprising the group of stars who are conceded to have the best chance to take the title, failed to win their opening matches in two straight sets. Mrsfl Lambert Chambers, captain of the British team, who held the British championship twenty-two years ago, dropped a set to Miss Molly Thayer, but won, 6-2, 63. Miss E. H. Harvey of Enland, lost her first set to Mrs. Bernard Stenz, but wbn, 5-7, 6-1, 6-1. Easy Games for Stars Miss Wills was not unduly exerted to win from Mrs. Helen Poliak Falk at 6-2. 6-3. For that matter none of the seeded players had to play their best, for it w-as arranged that all should have easy opponents for the warming-up spectacle. Mrs. Molla Mallory’s opponent was Miss Alice Francis, the girl's indoor champion, and Mrs. Mallory's triumph was measured by a score of 6-1, 6-2. + • Miss Eleanor Goss defeated Miss ancis Q. Bates. 6-0, 6-1. Miss Elizabeth Ryan didn't lose a single game to Miss Caroma Wynn. Miss Mary K. Browne won from Mrs. Theodore Short, 6-1, 6-1, and Mrs. Marion Jessup defeated Mrs. Harrison Smith, 6-0, 6-2. Miss Kitty McKane, the best of the English players, defeated Mrs. J. S. Taylor, 6-2, 6-0. Miss Eve Colyer of the English group of seeded players, won from Miss Elsi* Weymouth, also of England, but not seeded. 6-1, 6-0. Miss Joan Fry, youngest of the British seeded squad, dismissed Miss Peggy Loughmane frcm the tournament, 6-0, 6-0. This accounts for the entire seeded class. Helen Jacobs Shines Asa mild surprise for the --ciy meagre attendance of spectator? Miss Helen Jacobs of San Francisco, making her debut in the senior championships, defeated Mrs. Harry Bickle, <he former Canadian champion, a-0, 6-3. Although the opposition to the stars was so weak that no true idea of theiy relative form could be derived from this day's play, there is a pfersfetcn* hunch among the expert observers that Miss Wills is r j lose the championship. This probably is based solely cn the fact that there were an unusually large number of seeded athletes in the entry list of sixty-four and further fact that Miss Wills has been just barely superior in several of her matches with other leaders this season. EDDIE WELSH VICTOR Bu Timet Special LOUISVILLE, Ky„ Aug. 18.—Eddie Welsh decisively outpointed Harry Fay, in twelve rounds "here Monday night. Welsh had Fay groggy in the fourth and fifth rounds.

Games Today and Wednesday Close Present Home Stay—Team Walloped Monday by Millers. The Indians have two more games left with the Millers and after Wednesday the team will hit for a long trip. The pastimers need to get away from the home lot for a stretch and it wouldn’t surprise the team followers to see the Bushmen come out of the kinks when they invade enemy territory.

Outfielder Frank Walker, obtained from the New York Giants on a loan, reported to the Tribe late Monday afternoon and he was expected to be in uniform today. The Indians were drubbed Monday, 10 to 0. The home talent got only six hits off Bill Harris while the visitors pounded Buck Schemanske all over the lot after Ms arm weakened In the late innings. Buck looked good out there until he lost bis stuft, after which he was child's play for. the slugging Millers. In the ninth inning the first five men hit safely, two getting doubles, young Johnson, the frail rookie, relieved Schemanske and did better than the regular heaver. The indefinite suspension of Manager Bush has upset locals to the extent that they merely are going through the motions of baseball.

Bu Timet Special LONDON, Aug. 18—Meet Jack Hobbs, the British cricketer, who makes more “hornet runs” in a single game of cricket than Babe Ruth ever made in the two best seasons of his batting career. From the Prince of Wales, visiting for the moment in South America, to the lowliest subject among his father's people, Britishers were thrilled Monday when Hobbs swung his paddle shaped bat against the ball and completed what any Britisher from Picadilly to Hong Kong would describe as “a century-” That means that Hobbs scored lOC runs In one turn at bat. But what made the occasion one of special police reserves and the polite cheering in which British cricket crowds indulge thein selves when confronted with a feat of cricketing that cannot be adequately recognized by remarking “well hit, Hobbs,” in a conversational tone of voice, was that Monday's century was the 126th such score recorded by Hobbs. For. twenty years the record of 126 centuries had beckoned batsmen to fame, but only. Hobbs has equalled It, and as he now is at the prime of a career that promises to continue for many years, Hobbs probabjy will hike that record to a point where things will be dated from it something after this manner.

PIRATES TANGLE WITH N. Y. GIANTS THIS WEEK Leading Pittsburg Team Is Not Singing Outfit of Years Gone By—Crisis for McGraw. Bu Timet Special NE'W YORK, Aug. 18.—A few years ago the Pittsburgh Pirates, at that time known as a singing ball-club, came to the Polo Grounds, New \ ork, for a late season series with the Giants and devoted so much time and energy to their caroling, especially at night, that they couldn’t get around the minor task of defending a seven-game lead and winning- a pennant so-r B. Dreyfuss, owner of the Pittsburgh baseball property.

The Pittsburgh Pirates of 1925 will be here late this week to perform in a program of ball games with the Giants under reminiscent circumstances, but the personnel of the Pirates is no longer the same, and it is understood that any man who warbles as much as a gracenote will be- traded to the Sally League. Barney Dreyfuss used to reflect that a singing ball club was at least a happy ball club, and not frettting about the Wage question, which was a circumstance to make any magnate happy. Minds Off Their Work Not addicted to music himself, Dreyfuss was tolerant toward a muse which kept the minds of the athletes off the recurrent labor troubles of baseball, and hia tolerance endured until, too late, it transpired that the muse also diverted their minds from their work. To this day the surest..way to make Mr. B. Dreyfuss break down and cry Is to sing the opening bar to “Sweet Adeline” or “She Lives Down in Our Alley, ’’ two ballads which resounded through the Pirates' dressing room and even from their dugout in that sad season when they developed a whole herd of Charliehorses In the region of their tonsils and couldn't play ball for him. These new Pirates now stand possessed of a three-game lead over the Giants and this week will be a season of crisis for them and the lads of the prophet, McGraw. , Giants Make Gain The Giants and the Phils were the only teams In action in the National League Monday. The Giants won, 3-2 and gained half a game on the Pirates. The Pirates have lost three out of their last four games, which indicates that McGraw's force is doing itp job a littje more efficiently at the moment than the Pirates are performing theirs. . There was only one game Monday in the American, too. The White Sox beat the Tigers, 3 to 2. It didn’t matter. Neither team is bound anywhere. French tripled in the ninth with the bases filled and gave the Athletics a 9-to-o victory over the Pirates in an exhibition game.

DEMPSEY BOUT IS TALKED Efforts Made to Force Title Match Between Jack and Wills. By Henry L. Farrell, United Press Staff Corresuandent NEW YORK, Aug. 18.—Another lap—perhaps the final —In the long distance talking championship, was to be staged today before the New York boxing commission, when drastic efforts were to be made to force a heavyweight championship bout between Jack Dempsey and Harry Wills. With the threat that he would put Dempsey “in the bag” by signing him to an agreement to accept the Wills challenge and by posting a forfeit of $25,000, Jack Kearns said he would play his last card to force the champion into action and to get himself back into the good standing of the commission. Tex Rickard also prepared himself for a part in the final number by drawing up a check for $25,000 to present to the commission as evidence of his good faith In trying to arrange the match. No official comment has been heard from the members of the commission, but it is understood they will not take seriously the announcement of Floyd Fitzsimmons, Chicago promoter, that he has signed the match for next summer In “some middle western city.”
