PLAYING AFIELD

'With Billy Evans-

i— —-i T strikes me that the spirit of I I good sportsmanship is often | * I overdone in tennis. I *have in mind a happening in the recent world championships, when Bill Tilden met Jean Borotra. While it savored of sportsmanship,

yet it was in no way a compliment to Umpire Davis. It was in the second set. Tilden, in making a difficult return, drove the ball far out of bounds. Just as he was about to make the play, a ball from one of the other courts rolled slow--1;. m front of Tilden.

vx’^Bi

Evans

In all probability the vagi ant ball did interfere with Tilden to a certain extent. He immediately entered a protest. It was as quickly overruled by the official who evidently was of the opin! in that Tilden's chance of accurately returning the shot was very remote, even if the ball had not handicapijcd hirn to‘a certain extent. It was apparent by his actions that Tilden was a bit peeved when the protest was disallowed. Bill has a habit of showing his feelings. „ 1 * * * ABIDE BY DECISIONS i— —1 FFICIALS in any sport have 11) a difficult task—baseball, football, boxing or tennis. Being human, they often err, but the plays always are called as seen. Therefore, it strikes me real sportsmanship would be the proper acceptance of the rulings as rendered by the men selected to judge the plays. That is the prevailing habit in most sports, but a different code, j for some reason,, exists in tennis. The players do not always agree with the official. When they believe he has miscalled a play, they refuse to accept the advantage, by purposely erring on the next play. Perhaps that is good sportsmanship. However, it strikes me when this actions of any player in a competitive sport openly flaunt the fact that he believes the official has erred, it makes it mighty unpleasant for the judges presiding over the play. That was the attitude taken by Borotra on the play in which the official ruled in his favor against Tilden.

GIVING AWAY POINTS r—iOROTRA deliberately, drove IRI the next service ° ut ° f I u I bounds. It was done in such a maimer that his intent readily was apparent .to every spectator in the stand. The Frenchman also made it evident to the officials that he believed they had erred; that the ball rolling in front of Tilden had interfered with his stroke. Then came Tilden with a socalled sporting gesture. He just as deliberately served a double fault. Which made it all even again. However, each player appeared to be satisfied that he had done the sportsmanlike thing and the game went on, with Tilden still having the disputed point against him and in favor of Borotra, Real sportsmanship, I think, calls for the acceptance of the rulings on the part of the officials without a protest, whether right or wrbng, when judgment alone is involved.

Leading Pirates Get Two-Day Rest Before Battling Cincy Reds

Chuck, Back Home Again, Shows Stuff Local # Heavy Defeats- Art Weigand in Hot TenRound Battle. Indianapolis was treated Tuesday night to the best afl-round show of fistic prowess it has witnessed in some time. Each one of the five bouts on the American Legion card at the Armory was filled with action and fight. Only one fault could be found and that was that the Armory was overcrowded. Chuck Wiggins, king of Hoosier heavies, outpointed Art Weigand, rough and ready mauler from Buffalo, in the ten-round top go. Wiggins’ Skill Counts Chuck, once again the old master, opened up at times and treated the fans to some real ring work. Weigand, a southpaw, was a trifle puzzled at times. Chuck would box in the orthodox style, changing like a flash to the Buffalo fighter',> lefthanded lead style, crossing up time and time again. The crowd let loose with a chorus of boos once or twice when Chuck was guilty of using his elbow or slapping backhand at Weigand, but those close enough could see the Eastern pug was far from being an angel on his own part.

ATHLETIC INAUGURATION AT NEW WASHINGTON HIGH SCHOOL WELL UNDER WAY

BY NORMAN E. ISAACS Let it be known to all followers of America’s great interscholastic sport, football, that there has been added one more team to those representing this fair Hoosier capital city. In short, the new Washington High School has inaugurated its athletic career in no mean fashion, and from all indications will be in the thick of sports competition with Manual, Tech and Shortrldge in very little time. A trip out to the Link Belt field, where the Washington squad is practicing daily, will convince any one that the new team appears to be a “comer.” Grid Coach “Hot” One of the most pleasing parts of the team’s practice is the work *of Coach H.

The boys who started in last week’s fray and who appear likely to make the strongest bid for first string berths are- Bud Hanley and Viv Thomas, ends; Arthur West and Emil Unser, tackles; Marlon Milam and Roscoe Leighton, guards; Andy Johnson, center; Arthur Peterson and Anthony Brisnik, quarter backs; Leroy Heinrichs and Emerson Carter, half backs, and George Harlan, full back. All Around Town Harlan, husky tackle on last year’s Manual eleven, appears to be one of the best bets for stardom in local high school circles.

Curve Balls Chief Hope of National Yank Swatters to See Many ‘Hooks’ in Series; Odds i Announced. By HENRY L. FARRELL, .„!iU4 c d Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, .Sept. 28.-Jacfc Dempsey’s only chance in the Tunne;- fight depended upon the old sock and as a matter of official record it failed him. Everyone knew Dempsey could hit harder than Tunney and it was agreed Tunney was a better boxer and a smarter strategist than Dempsey. And in this particular instance the brain proved better than the blow. The same logic that brains are better than might without brains is being applied to the dope on the coming world’s series between the New York Yankees and the National League pennant winners. Bat Power Admitted The hitting power of the Yankees is recognized and respected in the National League, but the brain pow* er of the club is disputed. John McGraw, manager of the New York Giants, has gone on record with the opinion the Yankees are not a smart ball club and that they depend entirely upon the old sock. McGraw hasn’t expressed any opinion about the coming series but he, as well as some other National League managers, is said to believe that the Pittsburgh Pirates, St. Louis Cardinals or the Giants could beat the American League champions. Fast Ball Sluggers The Yankees are looked upon in the National League as fast ball hitters and the prediction can ba heard that they will be curved to death in the series. There are reasons to believe the Yankees do not favor curve ball pitching, but no batter does. If the curves are good enough and there are enough of them the Yankees may be curved to death. It must be remembered, however, that the Yankee pitchers also can throw curves. The Yankees, regardless of the technical arguments being advanced against them, are favorites in the betting. Odds ar being offered here of 7 to 5 that they win the series and some bets have been made at 13 to 10 that they win the first game.

Babe Two Shy of ’2l Homer Mark Bu United Press NEW YORK, Sept. 28.-Babe ’Ruth’s chances of setting anew home run mark rest with his ability to hit three home runs in three games, all the Yankees have left, Ruth hit his fifty-seventh home run of the season off Lefty Grove cf the Athletics in the sixth inning Tuesday.
