Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS
New YORK, July 25.—N0 r ore pop bottles at Ebbeta field 1 The thirsty customer quaffs his favorite beverage out of a paper cup, and realises how futile an Instrument of protest a paper cup can be. It seem; that during the recent aeries with the Cubs a couple of bottles v ere cast In the general direction of an umpire.

It is the symbol of vigorous, keen thought and the cymbal of civic fervor and ever ready protest. The bottle has a peculiar, quaint significance in Brooklyn. Were there a baseball crest for Dodgers it would show a pop bottle rampant on a field strem n with umpires. tt tt tt Os ftirte. we may He a Hit old fashioned about aorh matter*, bet we simply eannot tet etctled and alarmed over the fact that divers piece* of tlasrtrare were to**rd vacrsntlv —and netHtihlv and neflisootl? —Hit umpires who chanced to be In Brooklyn.

And the thoutht occurs:— ■appose the boys becln brlntlnt their own? a u o MANY years ago the Galesburg club, Missouri League, long since defunct, had a 22-year-old pitching sensation by the name of Alexander. Grover Cleveland his parents had named him, for he was born to a democratic father, who was a stanch admirer of the then [ current occupant of the White House. The next Season found Alexander in Indianapolis, as he had been drafted. But he could not stick ; with the Hoosiers. He went to Syra- . cuse and then was drafted again by the Phillies.
Now cnrars old Galesburg to remember iho e days of 1900 and rush to the rescue of Alexander In bis boor of need. Old timers in Galesburg remember how Grover used to cut them down. While there no longer is a league team In the Illinois town. Galesburg is ready with the best it has to offer—a Job on a semi-profes-sional outflt. a u u Down in Dallas. Alexander sits examining an unconditional release—the second he has gotten in something like a month. The years rest heavily on the 43-year-old righthander—the years and his own weaknesses. To make matters worse, e has a wrenched leg. tt at 1 BUT Galesburg doesn't care about his weakness. It just remembers the days of 1909 and the pitcher It sent out to become one of the greatest of all time. It calls old Aleck back. And if he comes back they’ll be waiting at the station, just as if he hadn’t been tossed overboard by Dallas—waiting with a welcome that will bring back to old Pete memories of the kid righthander who stood the Illinois-Mis-souri League on its ear, with the world before him. a a a The parade Sfnw In have passed hr. But Galesburg still has an old bugle somewhere in an attic to polish up and bring out to blow for Grover Cleveland Alexander. MARTIN VS. GIRALDO NEW YORK, July 25.—Eddie Cannonball Martin, former world bantamweight champion, has been matched with Jack Giraldo.

America and France Break Even Opening Day of Cup Battles Veteran Bill Comes Back to Win Three Straight Sets After Dropping First; Young Yankee Swamped by Foreign Tennis Ace. BY JOHN WHITE Culled Press Staff Correspondent PARIS, July 25.—The United States and France got away to an even start in challenge round play for the historic Davis tennis cup today, William T. Tilden, veteran American, defeated Jean Borotra, France, in the opening singles match, 2-6, 7-5, 6-4, 7-5, but Henri Cochet evened matters for France by beating George Lott, 6-4, 6-2, 6-2. Fought before crowded stands in the Roland Garros stadium, the day’s matches resulted quite as the tennis experts had predicted and left the issue—the possible return of the Davis cup to the United States stlll very much in doubt. e nf , irriav

Coach Is Mentor of Canadians Nicholson Training Canucks for Empire and International Meets. are the rivals which American track experts believe will provide the most serious threat to the track and field prestige of this country in the British Empire-United States meet to be held at Soldier Field the night of Aug. 27. . .. The great showing made by the bearers of the flaming Maple Leaf in the 1928 Olympic games together with the tremendous strides made in track in the Dominion since that time places the Canuck athletes in a position to endanger the track supremacy of the United States. ~ Our northern neighbor is expected to run off with flist honors in the British Empire games at Hamilton, Ontario, Aug. 16 to 23, where the foremost stars of ten British dominions will compete. From these games will be selected the team which will endeavor to upset the United States. Some estimate of the strength of the Canadians is leceived from John Nicholson, track coach at Notre Dame and a native of Canada, who is spending the summer at Montreal where he is training the Canidian team for the empire games and for the international meet here. Coach Nicholson states Canada will be strong in all track events from the sprints m the three-mile event, with the possible exception of the quarter-mile hurdles.

The game will be the first night college game to be played in the Metropolitan district.
In the doubles match Saturday Wilmer Allison and John Van Ryn will play Henri Cochet and Jacques Brugnon. The presence of Henri Cochet in the doubles lineup for France indicates that little Henri is at his best, and that the French will make a bold effort to add another point in defense of the cup. More Singles Sunday Two more singles matches will follow on Sunday with Tilden meeting Cochet and Lott facing Borotra. The original plan had been for France to p!ay Jean Bousus as Brugnon’s partner in the doubles, providing an even break was obtained on the first day. The team of Allison and Van Ryn is regarded virtually as certain of victory. Cochet. upon whose slender shoulders rest the chief hopes of the French, was superb in his victory over Lott end apparently sought to finish off the match as quickly as possible so as to rest up for his doubles effort Saturday. He extended himself in the third set and quickly >-an it out, scoring ten placements to three for the Chicago youngster. Bill Comes Back America-• hopes were somewhat dashed when Tilden dropped the first set of the opening singles match to Borotra but Big Bill settled to his work ard quickly forged ahead. . T n the tmrd set, Tilden’s temperament was on display when he stormed at an official who decided a game point against him. After that incident, the Philadelphian cut loose with a dazzling burst of placements and aces which gave Borotra no chance. RIPPLE RiNG SCRAPS Knockouts Feature Boxing Arena Card in Park Arena.

B.v Timex special TOLEDO, July 25.—Casey Stengel’s Hens made it four straight over the hapless Hoosiers Thursday, 10 to 2, tying the fracas at one and one in the fourth and then whacking out three runs in the fifth to take the lead for the remainder of the afternoon. Ambrose and Ferguson were the pitchers. Earl Smith and Ernie Wingard .vallopeti home runs, the former’s coming in the fifth with one mate aboard and the latter’s coming in the sixth. Jack Warner hit a triple and single for 'Toledo and also stole two bases, one on a double steal with Lebourveau that scored the Hens’ first marker in the fourth. Ferguson held the Tribe to six hits and gave up ten. Hoffman left the game in the fourth with a bad shoulder and was relieved by Cicero. Ollie Tucker, new outfielder, failed to show up Thursday, out was expected today.

Tribesmen arrayed against Columbus. The Senators are one of two clubs in the league minus night light experience and it will be interesting to see how the Bucks perform under the lamps. Minneapolis is the other A. A. team vet to perform at “The Towers” out West Washington way. The Indians begin a long home 1 stand Saturday night and with them will be the slugging outfielder, Ollie Tucker, obtained from Buffalo. He was a bearcat with Kansas City last year and clubbed the sphere in the International League this season for about .370. Exclusive of tlie tie at Columbus last Sunday, the Indians have dropped nine games in a row and have not tasted victory since they knocked off Louisville three out of four. The tonic of one win may start them the other way and if they don’t get in at Toledo this afternoon perhaps the series opener before the home fans Saturday night will see the demise of the jinx! On the night of July 30, next Wednesday, the Cincinnati Reds will stop off in Indianapolis for an exhibition with the Indians. It will be the Reds’ first experience at night action.

Bulson Is Victor in Close Tilt Ft. Wayne Star Noses Out Mrs. McCaskey for State Crown. BY DICK MILLER Times Stall Correspondent HAMMOND. Ind., July 25.—Mrs. Albert E. Bulson, Ft. Wayne, set a precedent in the Indiana Women’s Golf Association today when she won her third consecutive state title, the first time such an event has happened in the nine years of the association’s history. She defeated Mrs. Carl McCaskey, Highland, Indianapolis, one up, in the regulation eighteen holes. It was a thrilling match which kept the more than three hundred galleryites on edge. Loser Leads at Turn Mrs. McCaskey led at the end of the first nine holes, one up, and did not give up the battle until her 40-foot putt on the eighteen green hung on the lip of the cup. The golf played hardly could be called championship variety with Mrs. Bulson shooting a 49-46 for a 95, and Mrs. McCaskey a 46-48—94, but the closeness of the duel made it a match interesting to watch. Cards: Bulson out 666 646 366—49 McCaskey out 666 356 455—46 Bulson in 645 566 455—46 95 McCaskey in 766 546 365—48—04
The putting and approaching which kept Mrs. McCaskey in the fight far the championship all week brought about her downfall today. She took three putts on five greens and at the seventeenth hole, when in a position to score an easy win, she dubbed a short chip shot by looking up and the miss of the shot directly changed her from a position of being able to win the hole to that of losing it and a possible championship. Champ Recovers On the first nine Mrs. Bulson also three-putted several greens and paired only one hole, the seventh, when she got down in one putt. She put on her usual drive at the start of the second nine and went from one down to two up when Mrs. McCaskey three-putted the tenth and eleventh. Mrs. Bulson won the twelfth in par, but was in the trees on. the thirteenth and Mrs. McCaskey 3putted again with a chance to win. The plucky Indianapolis woman came back with a birdie on the next hole, halved the fifteenth and sank a long putt on the sixteenth for a par three to square the match. Two Putts Fatal It was then after she had made two splendid wood shots that carried her to the edge of the green that she made the mistake of lifting her head and took two putts. She tried hard on the eighteenth with Mrs. Bulson trying for a safe drive. Mrs. McCaskey stepped up to her ball and attempted the forty-foot putt which brought a cheer from the gallery grouped around the
Rabbit Gets Two Hits Hurrying to st. Louis m a T. A. T. plane, his first experience at riding the clouds, Rabbit Warstler, shortstop, joined the Boston Red Sox there Thursday, went into action and got two hits and a walk in five appearances at the plate against the Browns. He accepted five chances, four assists and a putout, without a miscue. Warstler sailed out of Indianapolis at 9:15 on Thursday morning. It was a new wrinkle in baseball for a rookie to drop out of the sky to join a major league club.
