a great motion picture star. u- but he is a showman on the tennis courts. And some of these days he will get beat in an important match after letting his flair for the dramatic get the better of him. On Thursday Borotra won the first set apparently because Bill did not open up. The champion according to reports never used his terrific service, but just batted the ball over the net. N When Tilden started to bear down he found an opponent who met him at every turn. Tilden defeated the French ace not so much because of superiority of strokes, but because of superior endurance. Big Bill ought to keep his temperamental stuff for unimportant matches. The Davis Cup play is tile world series of tennis and the entire United States is interested. About next year Bill had better start In on the first serve and play, play, play. Those French youngsters are getting too dangerous to be fooled around with much. * * • Don’t laugh at that attendance •of 500 fans In Columbus on Thursday to see the doubleheader between Indians and Senators. One big league crowd was only 000—at the CincinnatiCubs game in Chicago. * * * Carl Mays finally pitched a full nlne-Lnning game, the first of the season. He performed his astounding feat against the Cubs who didn’t seem to understand what the submarine hall was all about. • * 1 c : ACROSS THE BOARD TODAY c Across The Board had one winner ami two seconds out of four selections on Thursday, but did not increase the hank roll a great deal. SlO.tft winnings wero picked op, Pettibocker won, San-S-ilk and Pam Mendel were second and Reputation ran out of tbe money. The B. R. \s now *3A4.7A. We will have to find another track loas Thursday was r oney Island's last day. I.atonla opens on Saturday. The Blue Bonnets course looks like the beet today. GIftMMKRTNG in tire first race is worth a $lO win and place play. In the seventh #lO goes across the hoard oo DEVOXITE which is In under a feather. • • Again we rise to remark that no typographical error is going to get the best of us. In Thursday's column the tennis player Bill Johnston’s name was spelled Johnson. We have known the “t” was in there ever since we can remember. That’s that. V• MANAGER BURKE of Toledo should write a story for l___J one of these magazines which feature the “perseverance always wins” articles. The Mud Hens finally won a game from the Louisville Colonels. It was the second In eighteen starts. • * • The college anti high school football teams are hard at it onc-e more, but one would never know it. There is a strange silence in the air. The grid enthusiasts are cowed as yet by the hot weather. * * * S ENNIS players must be different. How ran they drink all that iee-vvater between sets with the persperation dripping from them—and live. Tilden drinks 'ice-tea. They can’t be human. Haven’t we often been admonished by that old saying, “Many a man has gone to his sarcophagus front pouring cold waiter down a warm esophagus.” Yet the net stars ignore the warning with impunity. * * * .y .1 HAT'S In a name, anyv;ay? yy A ball player who looks —around when you say, “Herschel,” was responsible for putting the St. Louis Browns In third place, Thursday. Herschel Bennett's screaming triples won two games from the White Sox find the Mound City club has tho advantage in the three-cornered scrap for third place' in the American League between St. Louis. Detroit and Chicago. * • • /i | ROM latest repotts it looks I as though Mike Kelly’s l.—l Spartanburg club of the South Atlantic Association has the pennant. The team had a two and one-half game in mid-week averages. The season closes on Saturday. Charlotte is the team on the heels of the leaders. Spartanburg closes the season at Greenville, a team sixth in the standing. Mike, who lives in Indianapolis, has proved a great leader for Spartanburg and is very popular there. He has been playing first base. His hitting has been hard and timely. Everyone who knows Mike is glad of his success in the South Atlantic Pepper, fight and -vim ar© Kelly’s by-words and he has imparted ail of them to his team. * * * jOACH HUGHES of De Pai>w is making a favorable impression at the Greencastle school. Be believes in plenty of hard work and real . condition. The other day he had V some of his gridders down on the f ground hammering them in the “wind” to see how soft or hard they were. No flahhy fat In the Tiger camp this year! • * * r ‘I -IE last day’s sport at Coney I I Island paid some big prices 1 to those who stab the long hots. In the first race Lola Montez rewarded her few backers with $93.80 for a $2 ticket to win. $51.50 to place and $22 to show. In the feature event Supremus, which set anew track record, was a 25 to 1 shot. In the last event of . the meeting Seth’s Alibi came '’own in front as the surprise, paybetter than 11 to 1. But how ■” -ming to pick that kind?

AMERICA NEEDS ONE MORE VICTORY IN DAVIS NET CUP EVENT

BUSHMEN HIT HARD AND WIN Tribe Rallies After Senators Cop First of Thursday’s Double Bill. Bv Time . Special COLUMBUS, Ohia, Sept. 11.—The Indians managed to knock off the Senators in the second half of Tburs day’s double-header, 12 to 3, after dropping the first fracas of the day. 7 to 6, in eleven innings. The Trib passed up numerous chances to salt away the opening struggle, but they made it decisive in the wind-up contest by walloping the ball for four teen hits in seven innings, tne game being called on account of darkness. The fourth battle of the series was scheduled today and It was thought Maun would be used on the Hoosiei rnound. The Indians were leading, 6 to 4, in the ninth inning of the first conflict Thursday when Reb Russell poled a home run over the fence with one mate aboard and tied the score. In the eleventh Spud Campbell singled and drove in the winning run for the locals. An error helped Columbus to victory. Schemanske and Palmero were the opposing pitchers in the extra-inning fray and both went the full route. Bill Burwell went to the mound for the Tribe in the wind-up contest and allowed only four hits in the brief pastiming. Manager Bush was forced to send out a crippled line-up owing to the absence of Schmandt and the ailing legs of Rehg and Allen. Pitchers Hill and Henry divided the job of covering left field for the Indians. Ad St. Paul lost to Kansas City Thursday, the tie for second place was broken and the Indians were in sole possession of the runner-up position by a narrow margin today.

Williams and Richards Clash With French Stars in Doubles —Tilden and Johnston Deliver. By Henry L. Farrell United Pre*s Staff Correspondent PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 11.—With two victories in the opening matches and three more matches to be played, the United States practically has cinched a victory over France in the challenge round of the Davis cup tennis matches.

The title for another year’s possession of the trophy which has been in this country since the two Bills, Tilden and Johnston, went to Australia In 1920 and brought It home, probably will be passed over to the American team at the end of today’s doubles match. The hopes of the French team for victory were virtually shattered In Thursday’s play when . Bill Tilden and Bill Johnston won their matches Tilden frequently has been accused of "trifling with” and “grand standing," and it was thought In the first set Thursday that he was not extending himself, but it is now thought he was playing his very best. It took five sets for Bill to win, 4-6, 6-0, 2-6, 9-7, 6-4. Johnston had to go four sets to beat Rene Lacoste. the 20-year-old Wimbledbn champion, but he never had the gallery as nervous or as concerned about the result as Tilden did. Everyone seemed certain after he started that Johnston was going to win. ’The score: 6-1, 6-1, 6-8, 6-3. One match was to be played today —a doubles battle in which young Vincent Richards and the veteran, Oapt. Dick Williams, met Borotra and Lacoste, who are doing all the playing for France. If the American team takes today's match the cup will be won and the two matches Saturday will be only consolation affairs. SATURDAY_JNNG CARD RnreUe and Ketcheli Top Bill at Speedway A. C.
