proposed tour of the United States all de- - pends upon the attittide of the United States Lawn Tennis Association. The national governing body could block Manager Pyle's plans completely if it so wishes. Most all courts are under the jurisdiction of the U. S. L. T. A. If the association said Su zfcnne could not play—that would Just.about be the end of it There is nothing the tennis constitution that says an amateur, cap not meet a professional- It just hasn't been done before. However, the sanction of the association must be obtained for any exhibition matches at an allied club. If it so wishes, the tennis association can say, “Mile. Lenglen, you can pl&y in this country as a pro, but try and find a. court and some onl to play against you.” * * * Just to be franc about it. Suzanne probably needed the money —United States pioncy. * * * Berlenbach toots the saxophone while in training. But Kid Kaplan went him one better right in the ring Tuesday night. He played his right and left on a certain CelUo from the Pacific, coast. His technique was so goocl that he won ithe verdict. • * * \We notice in a headline that Louisville ‘‘trampled’’ Kansas City on Tuesday. The score was fi to 5 in ten innings. Wonder what the verb would be if ine Colonels won large sc< c? SCCORDING to the United Press, newspaper men and photographers who haunt the English channel region while swimmers of all sorts and both sexes attempt to conquer the English channel, have decided that their own favorite, Ichy Gouk, the Eskimo, will be first to accomplish the swim this season. Ichy is a mythical character, created by the scribes, who explains to visitors that whereas the dozen or so other swimmers hope for warm water, Ichy is waiting for the water to get cold enough to be comfortable. Ichy is supposed to be hidden somewhere along the coast waiting for the channel to cool. * * * How times do change. Dempsey likes a high polish on his finger nails. He probably thinks that makes him a polished gentleman. There was a time when Jack was lucky to have his shoes polished. * * * The Cincinnati Reds finally crashed the Bunker Hill'defenses and took two games from Boston. They were the first victories of the season in Bean town for Hendricks' cUib. * * * These are the days when college footbaii players struggle with books in summer school so they can struggle with the pigskin in the fall.

CHAMP VISITS t Dempsey Served With Subpoena While in City. Jack Dempsey, heavyweight champion: his wife, Taylor Dempsey; his manager, Gene Normile, and mother, Mrs. Bertha Boylan, were in Indianapolis for a short time Tuesday afternoon waiting between trains.

MATCH PLAY STARTS IN STATE AMATEUR GOLF TOURNAMENT

INDIANS I N T W O BATTLES Tribe Closes Home Stay Today With Twin Bill—Hill Beats Brewers. Ownie Bush’s Indians were to wind up the Milwaukee series with a double-header at Washington Park today and a large crowd was expected to view the struggles. The games mark the last appearance of the Tribesmen on the home lot until 3ept. 4. The Bushmen start a month's tour on the road in Columbus, Thursday. Seven cities will be visited. Byron Speece and Jack Wisner were slated to do the Tribe pitching in the twin bill this afternoon. Carmen Hill uncorked good twirling in the third of the series Tuesday and the Indians won. 9 to 4. The local pastlmers got some runs for Carmen by hitting timely. It was Hill's eighteenth pitching victory of the season. Eddleman, southpaw, went* the full route for the Brewers and was solved for eleven hits. The visitors obtained nine safe blows off Hill. Hill struck out six batsmen and did not Issue a walk. Eddleman fanned two Indians and walked three, and two of the walks developed into Tribe runs. Wid Matthews was back In center for the Tribe after a two-day layoff Imposed by President Hickej. The little outfielder got two hits and walked once, and took good care of his outpost. ' The Tribesmen had two fat innings, scoring four runs in the second stanza and five in the seventh. The Brewers counted three markers in the f hlrd and one in the ninth. Griffin, Milwaukee. was the day’s batting star with a home run, double and single.

BALL PARK GOSSIP Outfielders Shulte and Rlchbourg of the Brewers collided on Miller’s fly to 'right-center in.the third and both Brewers kissed the grass. Richbourg held on to the ball, however. The pastlmers were shaken up, but not injured, and stayed in the game. v Jack Lelivelt, Milwaukee manager, who was struck by a line drive in batting practice Monday, was at the park Tuesday, but not on the coaching lines. His jaw was not broken, as reported, but it is painfully bruised. Simon made a great play to snare Hartley’s drive back of third in the sixth and he got the runner by inches at first. It was a difficult throw, but Griffin nailed it with his gloved hand. > The Brewer outfielders were kept busy. Richbourg had six putouts. Brief five and Shulte two. Griffin had only five putouts at first base. Holke had thirteen. Shulte made a running* catch in deep center for Hill's drive In the eighth. Threatening weather held down attendance Tuesday, but rain stayed away and timid fans who did not take in the action miesed seeing Hill turn back the Brewers. August Herrmann, president of the Cincinnati Reds, and members of the Cincy board of directors, were at the ball park Tuesday viewing the Tribe and Brewer pastlmers. They like the skill of Hill and Burwell, Tribe flingers, but have made no definite offers. They were scouting Milwaukee talent, also. Bob Quinn, president of the Boston Red Sox, was another major league prominent present at Tuesday's game. About three years ago Cincinnati directors made motions like they meant to buy the Tribe A. A. franchise, hut backed down whep the time arrived to fork over the coin. They have not made any similar gestures to purchase here since that time, according to William C. Smith, Jr., vice president of the Indians. William C. Smith, Sr., president of the Indians, Is ill and is at his Norwalk (Conn.) summer home. The absence of President Smith leaves Vice President Smith in full charge of the executive 'details at Washington Park, and the latter has n<bt been approached with offers for the local franchise. In fact, Vice President Smith says the club has not given up hope of erecting anew plant here for 1927. The Columbus Senators have taken on Raymond Haworth, catcher, from the Detect Tigers. Hayworth formerly caught for Toronto.

HARADA AGAINST U. S. STAR \ , Bill Johnston Gets Real Test —Quarter-Finals at Seabright Meet. Bu United Press SEABRIGHT, N. J., Aug. 4.—William Johnston, coast staf, was to meet Takeicha Harada, Japan’s most formidable tennis player today in the round preceding the semi-flijal of the men's singles in the jubilee tournament of the Lawn Tennis and Cricket Club. The match was expected to furnish a real criterion of Johnston's 1926 form and will draw a large gallery. Manuel Alonso of Spain vs. A. H. Chapin. Jr., Vincent Richards vs. Edward G. Chandler of Berkeley, Cal.; Francis T. Hunter vs. Brian I. C. Norton were other matches. Possibility of Miss Helen Wills meeting her old court enemy. Molla Mallory, in the finals of the women’s singles seemed more than a mere tennis fan's hope to<Jay. Both are expected to win in their semi-final matches on Friday. Miss Eleanor Goss meets Miss Wills and Miss Elizabeth Ryan meets Mrs. Mallory. Fritz Mercur of Bethlehem, Pa., and Wallace F. Johnson were to meet Vincent Richards and R. Norris Williams this afternoon in the men's doubles.

Semi-Wind-Up Bout Is Feature

The scrap between Willie Sullivan, Cincinnati, and Mickey Satnlck. Akron, Ohio, proved the outstanding feature on the weekly fistic program at Ft. Harrison Tuesday. Sullivan won the scrap on points, but it was a whirlwind fight and Satnlck w<?n- the favor of the crowd by his willingness to come back in the face of defeat. Satnlck was sent to the floor more than once, hut the* punches delivered by Sullivan failed to keep Mickey down and there was wild excitement in the “punch bowl" as the boys battled through the ten rounds. It was the semi wind-up bout. In the main go. between Midget Mike O’Dowd, Columbus, Ohio, and Happy Atherton, Indianapolis, the former had the advantage of five pounds and he appeared to be entitled to a shade decision over tl\e local boy. This bout did not measure up to expectations. The bantams milted freely at times, but the fans were of the opinion more action could have been shown. Atherton rallied well at the finish, but not enough to overcome the slight lead O’Dowd obtained in previous rounds. ' Frankie Jones. Louisville, gained an edge over Billy Shine. Indianapolis, in six rounds; Rip Wilson. Indianapolis, won by technical k. o. over Carl Schmadel, Indianapolis, in the fifth round and Soldier Fields outpointed Eddie Smith in four rounds.

IIS |ID you ever take a walk II J I through a large Mansion and " ■ marvel at the softness of the carpets as you passed from room to roomy That’s the way we felt Tuesday as we went over the Broadmoor Country Club course, playing with George Soutar, pro at the club: Mike Sullivan, assistant, and Nelson Marks, a local amateur. Soutar played the ball we will describe* as being Dearperfect and nine holes is given today. Rain at the start caused three of George’s putts to hang on the lip of the cup, otherwise his round would have been par. He had a score of 38-37 for a 7a, while par is 35-37—72. the first hole Is a long one, 438 yards, which is played with a drive, brassie and two putts. George took three, for ason a par 4. The green is trapped on all sides and is rolling, making putts uncertain. On No. 2, which takes you to the extreme far corner of the links, you play a drive and iron to green and take two putts, for a 4. The fairway is rolling and the green likewise trapped all around. George again took three putts, when the ball rolled off. *• • \ Soutar hit par golf on No. 3. with a Jour, snooting a drive and mashie on to the men. and was up and in. 14 is a beautiful green, and a ditch crosses the ® n 6 a trap on the right ia eonlug.
