B@q COACHER SUFFERS PENALTY What action should be taken by the umpire if with a runner on third the coacher at that base by his actions confuses the fielder and causes him to make the wrong play? THE duties of the coacher at third or first base is that of adviser to the runner. The position of third base coacher is more impor-
tant, since his judgment plays a prominent part in the scoring of runs. The duties of the coacher are purely of an advisory capacity.; Whenever the coacher steps out of his role and by his actions makes it appear that he is a baserunner,

thereby confusing the fielder with, the ball, he lays himself open to a severe penalty. In the first place the position of the .coacher is definitely defined by white chalk lines. These lines are for the guidance of the coacher and umpire in the proper performance of their duties. The coacher is supposed to stay within these lines. His roving territory is limited. When a coacher at third with a runner on that base runs in the direction of the plate or near the base line while a fielder is making or trying to make a play on a batted ball not caught on the fly, a thrown ball or a fly ball, and there-! by draws a throw to the wrong base, the umpire should penalize the team at bat for the interference of the coacher by declaring out the runner entitled to third base.

Tilden and Lott Play Japanese in Davis Cup Doubles Match
Champ Yankees Far in Lead as They Turn West On United Press NEW YORK, June 2.—The New York Yankees are off on their first western invasion of the season, leading the American League parade by a margin of seven and onehalf games over their nearest rivals. The first quarter of the major league season is past, and the pennant is nearly cinched for the world's champions. Miller Huggins’ men have only to maintain an even pace, winning as many games as they lose, to be assured of their third successive championship. Asa matter'of fact, no one expects the Yankees to lose as many games as they win on their western trip. They should return to New York on June 19 more safely than eyer established in first place.

| United States 2 Up on Orientals in Zone Finals. HENNESSEY IS VICTOR ; Indianapolis Star Beats Ohta in Straight Sets. i Hit United Press CHICAGO, June 2.—Needing only one more victory to eliminate Japan from the Davis cup roce, the United States team today was within striking distance of the European inter-zone finals. William T. Tilden 11, captain, and George Lott of Chicago faced the* Nipponese netmen in today’s doubles round of the final American zone matches here. Their opponents were Tamio Abe and Teizo Toba. Abe, the singles and doubles champion of Japan, was badly outclassed by the veteran Tilden in the opening singles round Friday. The United States captain defeated him in straight sets, 6-2. 6-3, 6-0. Fans who had expected an exhibition of championship tennis were disappointed, however, for a high , wind swept the courts of the Chi- ; rago Town and Tennis Club and made playing extremely difficult. Abe made a valiant showing against the tall Philadelphian, but almost exhausted himself trying to return the long drives with which Tilden raked the backcourt. Tilden stroked precisely and accurately, showing especially well on his service. John Hennessey met with more trouble than Tilden in his match, but nevertheless defeated Yoshirt, Ohta in straight sets, 8-6, 6-3, 6-3. The Indianapolis Irishman was within a point of losing his first set, but he rallied and thereafter never was in danger. Ohta, however, presented a well-rounded game. A victory for Tilden and Lott today was to give the Yankees three out of five scheduled games, making the final singles round Sunday only a formality. If the United States team was victorious, it will sail for Europe next week to compete with the winner of the European zone competition for the right to meet France, present holder of the Davis Cup, in the challenge round.

Series With Millers to Be Brought to Close With Double Bill Sunday Indians Drop Friday Tilt When Schupp Folds Up in Fifth; Sparkling Fielding Play Feature.
BY EDDIE ASH With three games scheduled over the week-end with the Millers, one today and two Sunday, it behooves the Indians to get back into their batting stride for it was evident in Friday’s defeat that Minneapolis possesses some real slugging ability. Friday saw the second invasion of tie western A. A. clubs into eastern territory and three of the invaders won, Toledo being the lone team in the east to win. The Hens managed to kick over the league-leading Blues, but'lndianapolis fell before Minneapolis, 7 to 1; Louisville lost to St. Paul and Milwaukee feasted at the expense of the cellar Senators. The Tribe really hit in tough luck Friday for several line drives of! local bats were snared by Miller fielders and two double plays resulted in this manner. Ferd Schupp was good and again he was had, and one big inning, the fifth, saw the visitors pound him lor six runs, the only inning they scored off him.. Speece pitched the ninth and permitted one marker. It was an errorless ball game, but a disappointment to the home fans for that fifth stanza was a nightmare. Ferd lost control after Orsatti poled a home run after one out. He got the next man, but after that he went to pieces. Two singles, a double and three walks sent Miller runners scampering around the sacks, Earl Smith driving in three with a double. Schupp forced in another and Bohne drove in the sixth tally. The Friday contest produced some excellent fielding and the rooters got some interesting entertainment despite the Tribe downfall. Layne turned in a beautiful running catch in deep left on Harris in the third and he took the sphere with one hand with his back to the stands. Connolly and Spencer also contributed feature plays. Haney, Layne and Russell were victims of line drive catches. Orsatti’s home run was a solid smack that struck the high right

Tommy Wins in Thrilling Title Scrap Loughran Makes Spectacular Comeback to Defeat Latzo at New York. BY GEORGE KIRKSEY. United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, June 2—Pete Latzo, of Scranton, Pa., reached for the world’s light heavyweight crown for a few brief moments Friday night, but did not have the stamina or fighting ability to make the final grasp. Badly beaten through ten rounds of’furious fighting, Tommy Lough-, ran staged the greatest come-back of his career in the last four rounds of his 15-round bout with Latzo and saved his 175-title by the barest of margins. Fought Self Out Latzo, rated a l-to-5 shot when he crawled in the ring, almost accomplished what smart boxing men deemed impossible—the defeat of Loughran, about the craftiest of champions. Latzo fought himself out in tha early rounds in a game attempt to knock out the champion. He landed numerous blows, had the champion in retreat, brought blood from his nose, an old cut under his chin and anew cut over his right eye. The crowd of 20,000 was in an uproar at the end of the tenth—a championship was passing. Game to the core, Loughran took it, landing only left jabs as he backed away. The crowd howled for Latzo to deliver the finishing punch, and Loughran caught hold of himself. He stopped boxing and began to fight. He brought his right into action, and began to put power into his lefts. Weary from his continual hammering at a shadowy figure, Latzo had used up all his fighting reserve and was in no shape to withstand Loughran's vicious offensive. Finishes Feebly Through the twelfth, thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth, Loughran fought a championship fight. His left and right lashed out, landing heavily on his target. His arms heavy and unable <o connect, Latzo floundered around the ring, finishing as feebly as he had started sensationally. Having brushed Latzo aside, Loughran must now prepare himself for his next championship bout against Jimmy Slattery of Buffalo, at the Polo Grounds, June 21. If he is victorious again Loughran will then meet Leo Lomski in another title bout which probably will be staged early in July.
