HERO IN DEFEAT ’~—“]L.THOUGH Howard Kinsey A lost in the final match at ** , | Wimbledon tennis tourney to. Jean Borotra of France the American’s game stand in reaching the final match will not soon be forgotten. He displayed some of the most courageous tennis seen at the meet to reach the title encounter. Because the California’s stout heart and skillful defensive tennis failed to win the championship is no sign that he should not be applauded. It is said that the “bounding Basque” was in one his unbeatable moods and experts "declare Borotra would have defeated any man in the world. The Frenchman was so accurate that his shots were flicking the baseline and sidelines in almost every rally. In the second set when Borotra rushed to the net he fairly swept Kinsey off his feet. Dispatches state that quite a bit of money changed hands on the match. The Americans and others backed Kinsey fairly heavily when the French offered odds of 5 to 3 Bn the Basque. ■* * * 9 A COMING STAR I 'ALTHOUGH defeated today j yVI by Mrs. Godfree of England i*M in the Wimbledon tennis tournament in the title match for the women’s singles championship, Senorita De Alvarez of Spain looms as a coming international net star. The young woman has been favorably spoken of before and seems to be improving each year. No less a personage than Mary K. Browne summed up the opinion of tennis experts when she said that “The Spanish girl is the finest prospect I have ever seen.” Miss Browne praised her speed and slashing forehand. “She is almost certain to be world’s champion soon if she is not spoiled by adulation,” the Pacific coast star said. * * * A. A. U. RULING S"~~] OME questions have arisen re- %. gardirig entrance qualifiesJ tjons for the Indiana-Ken-tucky A. A. U. two-mile swim at Broad Ripple July 5 and Paul R. Jordan, president of the IndianaKentucky association, has issued the following statement: The question has been put to me as to whether or not swimmers from the Hoosier Athletic Club or other organizations not members of the A. A. U. are permitted to enter. The answer to this is that such swimmers are eligible to compete in our championships. They may enter, but will be listed as unattached. In other words, we do not penaltze an individual athlete for any defection of his club. The individual swimmer, however, kghould bear in mind that the registra■tion committee of the National A. A. U. wwill disqualify him if he competes in any open event not sanctioned by tbe A. A. U., rendering him ineligible for any further A. A. U. competition. * * * A REAL MASCOT It did not mean a whole lot to the fans, but it meant a lot to Sammy Mandell that Ills fiancee, Miss Elizabeth Hemming, was at the ringside this afternoon in the lightweight title battle at Chicago White Sox ball park. They are-to be married week, win but Sammy knows very well that the s young lady would rather marry a champion than just a boxer. * * BACK ON JOB A regular visitor to The Times sports department once more is Earl McKee, the “wow” of local professional publicity men. “Mac” is back on the job as “praise agent” for Captain Clark’s Ft. Harrison “punch bowl.” McKee originated the “punch bowl” term for the open air arena and the idea has gone over big with boxing fans. He is a smart judge of the pulling power of ring cards and is out with the prediction that next Tuesday’s show, featuring Roy ■Wallace and others, will establish an attendance record at the army post arena. •v * • • erraiTH the first boxing bout [\Jy] scheduled this afternoon l under the <new Illinois athletic commission, it may prove interesting to go over some of the (outstanding rules which are in effect. Thd regulations cover every phase of the game. Some of them are as follows: No more than forty rounds in any one show. Fighters in main events must be on scene of action five days before the fight. No introductions from ring except those announcing the contestants. No fight manager shall have anything to do with the promotion end and one manager shall not have more than two fighters on same card. Complimentary tickets shall not be Issued in excess of 3 per cent of the seating capacity of the house. No match shall be of greater duration than ten rounds. All of the technical points, regarding contracts, duties of the referee, requirements of promoters to obtain permits, -weights of boxers, duties of physicians, suspension of managers, etc., are fully covered. * • • A WAGER, BAH JOVE! “Pop” Ederle believes in his daughter Gertrude. The ‘‘old man” heard that odds were 50 to 1 that his girl could not swjm the English Channel this summer. He got together all hjs small change and large which totaled something like *533,000 and took it to Lloyd’s, the company which will take a chance on anything. According to a story from London, when the brokers saw all that money and figured up that it would cost them more ; than $1,000,000 if Gertrude DID ,swim over they cut the odds to j 5 to 1.. “Pop” refused to bet. I The million Is safe for the present and so Is the $23,000.

SHOWERS THREATEN BATTLE Rain Causes Gloom in Chicago as Kansas and Mandell Prepare to Meet. By Bert M. Demby United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, July 3.—Chicago’s sport fans awoke today to find dark storm clouds threatening to ruin realization of their twenty-five year dream —a championship boxing match. An all-night downpour, followed today with intermittent showers, brought about the possibility of a forced postponement of the Rocky Kansas-Sammy Mandell match for the world’s lightweight championship—the first important fight under, Illinois’ new boxing code. It has been twenty-five years sThce Chicago has had legalized boxing. But promoters of the show, which 'is scheduled for an open air arena at the White Sox Baseball Park, announced the bout would be held unless weather conditions were extremely bad and hundreds of the more enthusiastic fans started early to the ball park to witness the preliminary bouts, scheduled to start at 2 p. m., central standard time. The championship fight Is set for 4 p. m., but if held at all may be set up to an earlier hour, to escape further rain. Special Covering A special covering is available for the ring and since most of the seats except those at the ringside are under the shelter of the grand stand, a light drizzle will not stop the main bout. Today’s match will bring Up once more the. old test of age versus youth. Kansas, the champion, is 31, and has been In the ring more than a decade. He was one of the most persistent challengers for the lightweight title a number of years ago and was generally believed to have lost his chance. He was supposed to be a “has-been.” But when Benny Leonard left his crown undefended, Kansas asserted himself by a series of knockouts and succeeded to the throne. Youth Vs. Age Mandell is by no means a novice, but he is only 23 and will have a tremendous advantage over the champion. In addition to his youth, he will have a five-inch advantage in height and four inches the better of it in reach. In other measurements they are about even. The feature bout among the preliminaries will be the 10-round semiwindup between Shuffle Callahan and Dan Gasparo, two hard hitting boys who have achieved popularity among Chicago fans when they were forced to travel to East Chicago, Ind., to see their fights. Advance ticket sales gave promise of a SIOO,OOO gate, a portion of which is to go to the Loyal Order of Moose, but unfavorable weather may reduce this figure materially. A capacity crowd would be about 30,000 spectators.

CHAPIN-LOTT Meet in Semi-Finals of Illinois NeFMeet. Bu United Press GLENCOE, lU., July 3.—George Lott, Chicago’s youthful tennis sensation, was to face Alfred H.

BOBBY BACK New York Hails Wonder Golf Champion. Bu Times Soeeial NEW YORK, July 3.—Shrieking whistles of harbor craft. The blare of a brass band, whanging out “Hail, the Conquering Hero Comes." Tumultuous cheers from a throng at Battery Park. Lower Broadway was ablaze with bright colored confetti and swirls of ticker tape tossed from the towering skyscrapers on either side. Into a welcome as warm as any that New York, gateway of America, evep showered upon visiting prince or potentate, French marshal or returning World War hero, stepped a bronjsed, nmiling youngster from Atlanta, Friday. Robert Tyre Jones Jr., who captured the British open golf championship with wood and Iron, won New York with his beaming smile. Up the narrow street from the battery to city hall, with his proud father grinning broadly in step beside him, the young conqueror of golfers marched at the head of a triumphal procession. LAMPRECHT TAKES LEAD Tulane Entrant Two Up in College Golf Meet. Bu United Press HAVERFORD, Pa., July 3.—G. Fred Lamprecht, of Tulane, led Paul Haviland, Yale, two up at the end of the first eighteen holes in the finals of the intercollegiate match golf play here today. At the No. 14 hole, the players were square, but Haviland took three puts on the fifteenth and mised a putt on the eighteenth, making Lamprecht two up. The cards:Lamprecht— Out 334 363 444—4,0 _ In . . 546 344 434—36—76 Haviland— Out 572 556 433—40 In 654 345 435—38—78 PITYING A HUNCH Maybe Rogers Hornsby was playing a hunch when he grabbed Grover Alexander from the Cubs. Alexander, it will be recalled, helped the Phillies win a pennant in 1915, and in 1918, his first year as a Cub, he was on another flag-winner. History is apt to repeat this season, especially in view of the way the Cardinals are staying up around-the top of the procession.

Babe’s Legs Go Back on Him as Slugger Tries for Homer Record. BU United Press WASHINGTON, July 3.—Checked in his attempt to better the season record of fifty-nine home runs that he established in 1921. Babe Ruth may have to take a vacation for a couple of weeks. Since early in June the big clouter has hobbled about on two bad legs, playing mainly on his nerve despite the advice of Yankee trainers and Manager Miller Huggins. He was kept out of the line-up here Friday save for a pinch-hitting appearance in the ninth inning, and after the game Huggins announced that Ruth would be withdrawn for an indefinite period. The formation of blood clots in his right leg have necessitated the rest, the Yankees' manager said. The Babe will have his legs X-Rayed and may have to take treatments for them. Ruth’s obviously poor* condition has interfered but little wlvh his play this year. He is only four homers behind his 1921 pace, having 26 circuit blows to date as compared with 30 in his record year. He is leading the American League in batting with a percentage of .390 and is first in runs scored with 78.

Father and So* in Open Golf Meet

Bu United Press COLUMBUS, Ohio, July 3.—Officials of the 1926 national open at the Scioto Country Club have not advertised the tournament as a “father and son" affair, but there is a chance that it may develop into such—at least in one instance. George Sargent, “prq” at the club, where the national tournament will be held July 8, 9 and 10, won tho national open in 1909. Sargent’s-eld-est son, Alfred, still in his teens, is considered one of the best golfers hereabouts. Both probably will be entered for the qualifying round prior to the open_ proper. Young Sargent has bettered par—72—a-number of times. What he chiefly needs Is experience.

The contest closed, 5 to 2, Indianapolis winning, but until the ninth the'Tribesmen were shut out. Hill pitched great ball, but his opponent, Lyons, got the “breaks” and for eight rounds it appeared as though the cellar Senators were going to goose egg the Hooslers.

Ainsmlth batted for Hartley and popped. Russell batted for Hill and walked. Matthews tripled, scoring Russell. Henry batted for Yoter and doubled, scoring Matty with the tying run.

Burwell pitched the ninth for the Indians and easily smothered the Senators. Leonard reached first on an error, but was forced by Meuter for the game-ending out.
