TIRRIN’ the DOPE By VEDDfiB GAUD
■ AT WOODSTOCK MEET V The greatest tennis of the westBrn meet was uncorked at WoodBatqck on Thursday. George Lott ■of Chicago had the easiest time Fin reaching the semi-finals when l he defeated Sagalowsky of this I city in straight sets, f Although Chapin won without being forced into extra sets, Paul Kunkel of Cinc;y put up a battle. Chapin commented several times on Paul’s ability to get everything. “He must have a broom instead of a racquet,” * said the Springfield (Mass.) plaer after Kunkel had made a t remarkable “get.” That- Raymond Kunkel - Paul Kunkel doubles pair looks.formidable, and Chapin, along with Hennessey, had another opportunity to test out the reach of the rangy combination of brothers from Cincinnati i na doubles encounter today. But when ti conies to spreading all over the court Johnny Hennessey need not take a back seat to any of them. When John comes to the net one is reminded pf the French cry in the World War—They shall not pass! I <* ** * JOHN- “TIGHTENS UP" i Just like a race horse. j-iessey ldbked as though he needed that Bell match of Thursday to /"tighten” him up for the battles ito come. You know, the local court wizard can’t get a great deal of honest-to-goodnesS competition from any one in this city. Indianapolis tennis fans who i were pulling for John, in the I quarter-final encounter, were some- • what dumfounded -when young Berkeley Bell took the second and third sets. But they did not worry long after the intermission. Hennessey came back with determination in ills eye—and, well, that was all there was to it. Johnny got his Irish up. Bell’s backhand chop had the Indianapolis player “gplng” for a while. Bell’s weakness is not so much physical as mental. He is young and he has not yet learned to take the bad ’breaks” along with the good ones in the same equanamity of spirit. Ideal Temperament * | ; He should take a few lessons from B. I. C. Norton, whose temperament is ideal. It Is 'easy to get "sore” in tennis, but it* never does any good. One can not help but notice the ingrained sportsmanship of Norton. He appears to be truly sincere about wanting his opponent to have'an even break. His admiration of a good shot by an opponent is not forced. The Kunkel brothers were forced to the limit in their doubles battle against Pare and Sagalowsky, but pulled l out with three out of four sets. The tussle came in the second and third sets. "Sag” and partner took the second set, 6-4, and lost the third, 5- The first and last sets were fairly easy for the long boys, who won, 6-1 and 6-2. Chapin still works hfe crossword puzzles. After a match on Thursday he was discovered lying on the grass back of the fMfiicials’ tent engrossed in the ancient pastime. Willis Adams remarked: “I thought those things went out with the long skirts.” * * * Miss Stevenson and Miss Wolf of this city got a few thrills out of their dpubles encounter with Mrs. Chapin and Miss Leighton, two of the best women players in the tneet. The local girls won the first set, 8-6. That was enough glory for one day, so they proceeded to drop the next two, 6- 6-1. • • • FAIR ENOUGH In the match against Williams on Thursday the Chicago player was putting up a dazzling display in the second set. Norton was being out-played at every angle. On a game point a ball from another match rolled Into William’s side of the court, and Lucien netted his return. / f Immediately Norton asked WfPKanis if be had been bothered and insisted on playing the point over. Williams finally won the game and at the time it appeared to be a crucial one. B. I. C. just smiled and kept on going. That’s his style, and one must admire it. * * * THOSE SEMI-FINALS fcy tJILL somebody kindly step iVv I forward and tell us who Is L 1 going to win the Lott vs. Norton match, also the Hennessey , vs. Chapin semi-final. A diligent search throughout the United States could hardly have found a more evenly matched quartet of tennnis stars. Any one of the four is capable of winning the Western singles title. Lott and Norton are the highest ranking players and one of them must go out before the final match. Norton Is No. 9 nationally and Lot No. 11. Hennessey was not rated last year because he did not play in sufficient tourneys in this country. He was sent to Europe by tUe U. S. L. T. A. Chapin is ranked ‘ No. 13. SIGLIN OUT OF JOB. In order to get within the player limit, the San Francisco Missions released Inflelder Paddy Siglin. Biglin, filling in as an emergency artist, had a batting average of .303. “OTE” GOING GOOD Otis Crandall, veteran of twenty seasons of baseball, is pitching a great game for Los Angeles. If he can keep it up he stands a good, chance of passing the 20-victory mark. *

FORMER CHAMPION BEATEN Mickey Walker’s Days of Boxing Glory Gone —Joe Dundee Victor. By Paul W. White # United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, June 25.—Mickey Walker’s days of boxing glory are gone. The sturdy Irishman with a fighting heart has been pushed several more rungs' down the welterweight ladder by Joe Dundee, Baltimore Italian, who started life with the less imposing name of Samuel’ Lazar rou. Dundee scored a technical knock out over the former champion, Thursday night, in Madison Square Garden when Referee Eddie Forbes stopped the bout after two. minutes and fifty-three seconds of fighting in the eighth round. It took courage for Forbes to end the carnage, for Walker probably would have remained perpendicular fo|- the remaining two rounds. But blood flowed so freely fronr a deep gash above Walker’s eye that he was blinded ® Indeed, had the bout continued, Walker’s eyesight might have been permanently impaired. A blood vessel burst during the fight. Dundee hopes to be matched against Pete Latzo, the Scranton dbal mixer who lifted Walker's title a month or so ago. Unless Walker went bacd precipitately since the Latzo fight, the Baltimore lad is a good bet. The attempt of champions to stage a come-back seldom fails as miserably as did Walker’s. Just* before the New Jersey boxer went into the mill to take his beating, another deposed title-holder, Harry Greb, was introduced to the fans. Greb will meet Tiger Flowers, the new middleweight champion, in a return bout Aug. 1.

McGraw’s Giants trimmed the lowly Philllee in both ends of a doubler-header Thursday. 12 to 7 and 7 to 2. Four homers were made In the first game, two by Knight and one each by Mueller and Pep Young. Washington trounced the Athletics twice. 8 to 0 and 3 to 1. The Senators were ahead in the nightcap when the game wus called on account of rain in the sixth. The score reverted back to the fifth. Chicago tightened its hold on second place In the American League by winning easily from Cleveland, 9 to 6. Falk cracked a four-p)y blow in. the White Sox' half of the third, when sis. runs were made. Rigney’s four-base wallop sent three Red Sox runs over the platter and enabled Boston to defeat the Yankees, 0 to 8. In eleven innings. Wiltse allowed the slugging Hugmen only six hits. The Pittsburgh-St. Louis contest was called after the ninth inning, with the game tied at three runs apiece, to permit the teams to catch a train. Rhem, leading pitcher of the National League, barely escaped defeat, although he pitched splendid ball, because of tne eightn-inniug Card rally, which tied she acore. OLD MATES HIT HIM Howard Ebmke of the Athletics, recently acquired from the Red Sox, made anything but an auspicious start for his new club. He was sent in against his old teammates the other day and all they did was to comb Howard’s offerings for seven hits and a cluster of runs in a little more than three innings. The Macks finally won out, however, so Ehmke wasn’t charged with a defeat. !

Rheumatic Cold Physicians told Mile.. Lenglen they thought she was able to play, but that after today should have several days rest Wnd in no event participate In strenuous matches. The diagnos.s was rheumatism complicated by a cold. Tennis enthusiasts have been eager to see a match between Elizabeth Ryan of California and Suzanne.

Georgia Golfer Tops All-Star Field Over Hard Course With 291 Score—'Watrous Second. By Henry L. Farrell United Press Stall Correspondent ST. ANNE’S, England, June 25.—Bobby Jones of Atlanta, Ga., greatest of all American amateur golfers, today captured the British open tournament. In three days’ play over the tricky Royal Lytham and St. Anne’s course, Jones had a record score of 291 strokes for the 72 holes.
A1 Watrous, American prosessiopal, was second with 293 and I A’klter and George Von Elm were tied for third with 295. Jones wore Watrous down in the last nine holes. His winning then depended upon the performance of Hagen. The latter required 76 strokes for his final round, however, and Bobby took the championship. Refuses to “Crack” Although the victor was In difficulty on many holes in today’s rounds, he failed to break. His putting was ragged at times and he found himself in several bunkprs, but he refused to be discouraged. It was Watrous who finally gave way to nerves. Only once sinqe 1921 has a British golfer won the open tournament. That was three years ago, when Arthur Havers beat out Walter Hagen. American professional, by one stroke. Victory Popular Jones gained a popular victory. When the qualifying rounds for the open were held Jones turned in the most beautiful golf of his career, making a 66 anp 68 for a total of 134 over the difficult Sunnlngdale links. In the tournament his play was not as brilliant, but was marked by consistency. Wednesday "he had a 72 and Thursday negotiated 18 holes in the same number of strokes, being tied with "Wild Bill" Mohlhorn for the- lead. On the first 18 today he was passed by A1 Watrous, Gr.yid Rapids professional, who spurted ahead with a fine 69. Yankees Sweep Play Jones’ victory In the open tournament completed the most sucessful invasion American golfers ever have made. The British amateur championship was won for the first time by a native born American when Jeßs Sweetser of New York captured the trophy at Muirfleld. In the Walker cup matches for amateur team play at St. Andrews, Americans were again victorious, winning six matches, tying one and losing five. 1 A sensation came when Archie Compson, British professional, was disqualified by playing from an area out of bounds on the twelfth hole. Compston was one of the leading British players, having taken a 78 for an Aggregate of 228 when he was disqualified.
Puzzling Plays
If the third out of sn Inning Is canoed by a player batting Improperly, what hat. ter starts the next Inning? • • • I will explain this situation by offering a concrete example of such a happening: We will assume that Jones is the third batsman in the line-up and Smith the fourth. Through a mistake. Smith bats improperly and It is discovered that Jones should have been the proper batsman. An appeal is made to the umpire. This calls for the proper batsman. Jones, to be called out. Smith who batted Improperly and follows Jones in the regular batting order, should start the next Inning. In other words, when t, man bats Improperly. and the mistake is discovered, the proper batsman netr.g called out to end the inning, the drsf batter In the next innir.r should always be ’.he man who follows (be proper batsman. ,
