Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS
NEW YORK. July 8. The old boys are doing pretty well in eports this year. Old Man Ruth has been banging the apple over the orchard wall with greater frequency than ever; Old Man Sande is having one of his most successful seasons in the saddle, and Old Man Tilden has just won his third Wimbledon championship after a laps? of nine years, and at a time when he was suppos"d to be nothing more than a tradition in baggy flannels. a a a Tilden ha* lw7 comported hlra#elf In ■ manner tenued to Idealize him In the mind* of d'seriminatint sportsmen: Indeed I think It I* a matter of reeord that he onre concurred in the drafting of a set ol amateur law* with respect to commercial be*uiiement and at a subsequent tournament blandly renounced hi* awn pledge: and there hare been time* when hi* beha*iori*m on the eourt with partieular regard to throwing points as a theatrical protest against an official decision made him look rery childish • * But the old man can smack that tenrua ball around, and nt can do it a .ittle better perhaps than anybody lh* ®* me has ever known, incudlnf the Dohertys. McLoughlin. Earned. Brookes and Cochet. At 37 Tilden is back on top. victorious in a tournament that brought together more top Right players and more court class than he '.as called on to face> as a comparative youngster he won his first English classic m 1920. a a a JUDGE LANDIS once attempted to prove that Ruth was not bigger than baseball. It was an interesting attempt and I never did find out for sure what happened. Ruth may not be bigger than baseball. or even half as big. but he's about the only fellow the customers will pay to see as an individual. And I don't sunpose the judge would hesitate to admit, off the records, rs course, that when the time comes baseball will miss Ruth a bit more than it ever could miss the judge. ana But to comc back to Mr. Tildcn. lie •* In a tcct dramatic spot right now and if there I. anything Mr. Tildcn likes better than a dramatic spot it is two dramatic anota. You may recall that he announced •ome month* ago he would not compete as a member of the Dart* cup team thi* year. The critic* had been wrillng that the time had arrived to cut loose from the veteran* ard start rebuilding with youngster*. Infcrentlallv Mr. Tilden was indicted a* passe, a liability and an obstacle to progress. a a a Now when Mr Tilden withdrew there mas no calamitous erv of despair on tne part of the peasantry because at the time America’s tennis prospects were not such as promised anv happy fcturrs in the international tests, with or without the ereat man. America hadn t been able to win the year before with Mr. Tilden. It seemed! therefore, not un-'ise to go ahead and experiment with the youngsters. a * a MEANTIME startling developments occurred. Tilden turned back the hands of time and reappeared in his old form as the colossus of the courts. The younger Americans performed with unexpected brilliance, and an upset was written when Wilmer Allison, the angular Texan flattened the great Cochet. and paved the way for what was practically a clean sweep for the Star Spangled entry in the Wimbledon tournament. nan Thus nvernight. as you might say. the picture has ehanged completely and instead of facing a hopeless assignment in the cup play the American ronlingent has every reason to be optimistic—especially with Mr. Tildcn In the lineup. It is a very good bet. of course, that ultimately he will Join up. hut not before he has permitted the situation to work Itself into a furious dramatic denouncement. an a The fires of Thespis burn fiercely in the *oul of this frustrated interpreter of the stage arts and it must be pleasant for him to contemplate the heroically important role in which he is currently cast—an rglng star whose eloquent racket holds the answer to his country's success in the world's most important tennis test.

ATHLETICS, YANKEES CLASH IN TWIN BILL TODAY
Macks Out to Regain Lead; Aats Take Top by Dropping Boston General Crowder Pitches Washington to Easy Triumph; Herman, Moss Enable Robins to Increase Advantage Over Cubs in National. Bu l nttrtf prrnt NEW YORK. July B—Babe Ruth and the New York Yankees today provided a formidable obstacle for the Philadelphia Athletics in the world champions' attempt to regain the American League lead. The Athletics are billed for a double-header with the Yankees at New York and must win both games to insure a tie for first place. The Athletics last the lead which they had held since June 1, when Washington defeated Boston Monday, while Philadelphia was idle. The Senators still are one-half game behind Philadelphia in games won and lost, but have a .004 point advantage in the percentage column. Standings, with percentages possible today are:

Crowder, the pitcher whom St. Louis threw in for good measure in the Manush-Goslin trade, gave Washington Monday’s victory, his fifth consecutive triumph since joining the Johnson club. Crowder held Boston to eight well scattered hits while his mates pounded three Boston pitchers for an 8-to-l victory. Cleveland Defeated The hapless Cleveland Indians were unable to extend their winning streak to two games and dropped a 6-to-l decision to St. Louis. The defeat put Cleveland, league leaders on June 13, a full fourteen games behind Washington. Chicago vacated the American League cellar after a ten-day occupancy by splitting a double-header with Detroit. Sox were held to four hits by Earl Whitehill in the first game and lost, 3 to 2, in ten innings, but rallied to win the second, 9 to 5. Three errors by Bill Akers, Tiger shortstop, aided the Sox. Brooklyn took undisputed possession of the National League lead by defeating Boston, 2 to 1, while the Chicago Cubs were dropping a 4 to 2 decision to Cincinnati. The Robins are now a full game ahead of the Cubs, as well as holding a percentage advantage. Babe Herman and Ray Moss collaborated in the Brooklyn triumph, Moss holding the Braves to six hits and Herman scoring both of the Robins’ runs. Reds Topple Cubs Triples caused the downfall of Pat Malone and gave Cincinnati its third consecutive victory over Chicago. Walker, Swanson and Heilmann each drove in a run with a triple after two were out and Heilmann scored the extra run on a wild pitch. The New York Giants nosed out Philadelphia, 13 to 12, in a thirty-eight-hit slugfest and moved to within 2Vj games of second-place Cubs. Lindstrom's single with the bases filled and two out, gave New York the tying and winning runs in the ninth inning. Pittsburgh pounded Hal Haicl and Lindsey for five runs in the eighth inning and defeated St. Louis, 9to 5, Larry French, the Pirates’ omy southpaw, held the Cards.

U. S. Davis Cup Head Says Tilden Will Play With Yanks in France
Bu L'uilrd Pn xn NEW YORK, July B.—Although the two men most qualified to speak, Fitz-Eugene Dixon, captain of the United States Davis Cup team, and William Tilden himself, have officially declared that Tilden will not play with the American team in its 1930 Davis Cup matches, it appeared likely today that the tali Philadelphian will be in the lineup when the United States takes the court against France at Roland Garros stadium, July 25, 26 and 27. Dixon’s announcement that Tilden was not a member of the team and not eligible for play was offset by the statement of Joseph W. Wear of Philadelphia, chairman of the Davis Cup committee, who said he “had every hope that Tilden will play and expects that the one complication standing in the way of

Oral Hildebrand, collegian with Indianapolis, brought the scouts running early in the season when in an exhihibition game with the Philadelphia Nationals he struck out Fresco Thompson, Lefty O’Doul and Chuck Klein—one, two, three. But Hildebrand failed to retain that kind of baffling stuff against American Association batters.

the former going six innings and the latter three. Three of the six runs off Hildebrand were unearned and two of the four markers off Mulrooney were helped around by Tribe errors. The lone Indian run was a circuit drive by Red Dorman over the scoreboard in the sixth, no one being on when Charlie connected. Ten men left on base explains the manner in which Connally baffled the Corridenites when runners were in a position to score. Ernie Wingard, Hen first sacker, blasted a home run in the second that went to the center field corner inside the playing field and Ernie scored standing up. It was a mighty smack. Bevo Lebourveau hit both j Hildebrand and Mulrooney for doubles and also beat out a bunt. He is the league's leading swatter. Nineteen batters struck out during i the struggle, ten Hens and nine Indians. It was Toledo’s first experience at night baseball and as for the Tribesmen they evidently forgot everything they had learned about pastiming under the lamps.

The national open champion, who holds the Bi'tish open and amateur titles as well, has demonstrated to the 150 pros and amateurs who will oppose him ol Thursday that he holes the tncky Interlachen course in the hollow of his gifted hand Supposedly worn by the strain of fighting through two championship tournaments aLroad, the Atlantan has shown his ability to burn up the course over which he will defend his national optn title this week.

His two par rounds Sunday followed by his record breaking 79 are unprecedented over this difficult, rolling course at Interlachen Leo Diegel, the P. G. A. champion, who pursued Bobby so aimlessly in the British open tournament at Hoylake, also shot a 70 Monday, and is regarded as one of Jones’ most dangerous rivals. There will be Walter Hagen, Johnny Farrell, Ed Dudley, Horton Smith and a host of others, all pressing closely upon the heels of the stocky Atlantan, and he will not be able to slip as he did at Hoylake and get away with it this time. Goodman Gets 71 Walter Hagen went out in 32 Monday, and that is golf for anybody’s money at Interlachen. He didn’t try coming home. Johnny Goodman of Canada, the youngster who sprang into fame by putting Jones, out in the first round of the 1929 amateur tourney, shot a 71 Monday, equalling the course record.
