YORK, July 25—“ There’s nothing to worry about,” said the doctor. “Just go around stripped to the waist for a couple of days and you’ll be all right.’’ This explains why instead of being in Buffalo watching the professional golfers compete for their match play championship at this moment, I am sitting at home simmering in oil and vinegar, and in a general way giving a fairly expert impersonation of a French salad dressing. In a vague sort of way I think 1 have always been able to appreciate the extraordinary qualities of Mahatma Gandhi, but now I realize his greatness surpasses finite understanding. I peel down to the waist in the sun for an hour and I become an invalid. The Mahatma goes through life like this and u hailed as a second Messiah. mama a a IDONT know yet why I decided to go in for sun bathing. Some fanatic suggested it. “Let the sun hit your chest and back. It’ll do you a lot ot good.” He would have been more correct if he had suggested carbolic instead of Scotch in the air-conditioned glass which I held out imploringly. . . . .. Back ten years or so nobody ever thought of going around nan naked in public. The sun propagandists hadn t yet stormed the first lihe trenches If a feUow merely took his daily dozen in the morning and didn t smoke more than seven cigars up to dinner time, he was deemed to be living a sane, sensible life. m m • a m B I REMEMBER further back than that, too, when everybody used to pity the poor horses in the city streets because of their exposure to the sun. Their plight became so tragic- a kindly old lady in our town raised such a rumpus that the city council passed a law putting straw hats on the animals. Now a horse in a straw hat looks lunny enough, but I doubt that ne looks any more comical than a middle aged business man walking around m the hot sun with nothing on but a pair of Boy Scout panties. And looking at business conditions as they are today I can t see where the sun has helped a great deal. Maybe it w-ould be a happier experiment to put the horses in panties. Wasn't it General Hugh Johnson who told those labor leaders in Frisco that what this country needs is horse sense? UU n a a a WELL, anyway I hate to be late shuffling off to Buffalo, where 1 understand spendthrift Charlie Murray has planned a gala festival. But I am reasonably modest by nature and besides there is nothing about my crumbling physique that would remind even an adoring relative of Weissmueller, unless it would be under the arms or between the ears, where I seem to be standing up pretty well, physically, against the enthusiastic mroads of time. I mean if I were to go out on the course today and start following the golfers with my manly bosom exposed to one and all, some shocked member of the greens committee would undeniably summon the law and demand: “Get that piece of creeping bent off the fairway right away.” •aaa a a a NO, I preler to wait until 1 am able to wiggle my torso into a fabric concealment of some sort, and in the meantime if any chatauqua agency wants a lecturer to debate the relative merits of God’s golden sun versus the poisonous vapors of the subway I can be had just for the asking. About the only virtue I can sec in sun is that it finally reduces you to such a condition you can not wear clothes and this in turn cuts down cn laundry expenses. But even so the saving thus accomplished must be spent on oil and vinegar. Others may be able to achieve the salad effect more convincingly, but in my case even a generous spraying of these condiments does not seem to make me any more palatable.

U. S. DAVIS NETTERS DEFEAT AUSTRALIA
Wood, Shields Take 2 Final Singles Tilts Yanks Overcome 2-0 Lead; Biggest Recovery on Cup Records. BY HENRY MTEMORE United Press Staff Correspondent WIMBLEDON, England. July 25. —Sidney B. Wood Jr. and Francis X. Shields, both of New York, staged a fighting tennis comeback today to give the United States victory in the interzone final Davis Cup battle with Australia. America thus gained the right to meet Great Britain in the final or challenge round. Wood completed the victory he started yesterday, defeating the great Jack Crawford, 6-3, 9-7, 4-6, 4-6,6-2. Then, with the meeting on even terms. Shields bested Vivian McGrath, 6-4, 6-2, 6-4. The American cause, regarded as a hopeless one after the two opening singles matches were lost on Saturday, was revived when the one doubles match was won on Monday. This was because all experts virtually conceded the doubles to the United States side. Odds Against Americans When play was continued yesterday, the Americans were underdogs in the betting at 2 to 1, and Crawford was a 4-to-l favorite over the slender Wood. Wood stunned the gallery by capturing the first two sets of his match before rain halted play. Crawford, in turn, scored a surprise by winning the third and fourth sets played today, but Wood, his game found again, swarmed over the Anzac to capture the deciding set at 6-2, Thus the meeting was on even terms, with two victories for each nation as Shields and McGrath began play, and the victory by the big New York boy gave the Americans the decision, three matches to two. Break All Records The American victory today was believed to have established a precedent. According to all available records here, never before has a team, while playing in the interzone final or in the challenge round come from behind a 2-to-0 match score and go on to capture the tie. In several cases such a team has lost a tie by a 3 to 2 margin, but, so far as the most complete records can disclose, never before has a team which lost both opening singles matches come on to win. In the first two sets played today Crawford sprinted off to lead at 4love, and in each case Wood pulled up to trail. 4 to 5. only to lose the tenth game. But in the deciding set he made short work of the Anzac. Shields Begins Play With Wood safely over the Crawford hurdle, the burden of the interzone final rested on the brawny shoulders of Frank Shields of New York, and upon those of young Vivian McGrath, the Aussie who upset Wood in Saturday’s opening matches. Shields and McGrath entered the center court as soon as Wood and Crawford finished their match. The weather was still threatening. Shields won the first set, 6-4. Shields hammered three aces past McGrath to win the first game of the first set, but the Australian took the second with a pair of backhand placements. Shields won the third game despite five double-faults and then broke McGrath’s service to lead at 3 games to 1. Stubborn Battle Shields won the fourth game by scoring two volley kills. He went on to lead, 4 to 1, taking the fifth game mainly through his dazzling speed. McGrath held his own service in the sixth and broke Shields in the seventh as Frankie twice was guilty of double faults. McGrath held his own service to make it 4-all. Shields took the ninth game on his own service after six deuces and broke through McGrath's service with two net smashes and a pair of backhand placements to win the tenth game and set, 6-4. Shields won the second set, 6-2. Shields continued his bombardment in the first game of the third set, twice blasting service aces past the bewildered McGrath. Frankie broke service in the second game, rushing the net to beat Vivian with angled shots. Both Serve Wickedly McGrath came (jack to break service in the third game, counting with two beautifully executed lobs. He held service to level the set at 2-all. Shields was now showing signs oi becoming weary from the terrific pace. The fifth, sixth and i seventh games followed service at love, both players serving wickedly. Shields blasted through in the ninth game to lead,* sto 4. He was going at a furious pace once again and he swept McGrath from the court with three forehand drives which nicked the sidelines for game, set and match.

Investigate Blaze at Bowie Track Fire Causes $25,000 Loss at Race Plant. By United Press BOWIE, Md., July 25.—The second serious fire at an eastern race course within two days was under investigation by fire marshals today after flames took $25,000 damage at th-> Bowie track. The fire, which raged out of control for nearly an hour, was believed caused by spontaneous combustion in a feedstore adjoining the track. It was thought there was no connection between the outbreak and that at the Rockengham (N. H.) track yesterday. Firemen managed to check the flames without serious damage to the track and grandstands. However, tfie feed store, three stables, the trainers’ house and several other minor buildings were destroyed. Fire fighters were hampered by lack of water pressure and by throngs of spectators who rushed to the scene. The Bowie track is not in operation now and only a few horses were quartered there. None was injured.

Unpopular Verdict Goes to Plummer in Mat Mix Slagel Winds Up on Short End After Rough Bout; McMillen Wins When Raines Is Disqualified. Lou Plummer, bronzed and rough grappler from Baltimore, won an unpopular verdict from Sol Slagel, Topeka. Kans., last night in the main go of the wrestling program at Sports Arena. It was an all-heavyweight card.
Plummer started early with the rough stuff and tossed the plump Kansan in four minutes. Pelted with an assortment of punches, Slagel was helpless from the gong. He came back strong in the second fall and dealt out some of the same punishment to Plummer, taking the fall in fifteen minutes. Frequent eye-gougings by Plummer reduced Slagel to impotence in the third fall and he struck the Kansas fat boy while he was talking to Referee Heze Clark. A fusillade of body blows put Slagel out while the crowd yelled its disapproval at Referee Clark for not disqualifying Plummer. The semi-windup between Jim
Grimm Sees Cubs on Top of League by Labor Day
Chicago Manager Says Pitching Staff Is Set for Season; Plans Gruelling ‘Dog Days’ Drive at Home. BY CHARLES GRIMM Manager Chicago Cubs NEW YORK, July 25.—As I see it, the Giants, Cardinals and Pirates all are going to be tough until the last shot is fired, but obviously the New York club is the one the Cubs have to beat.
I believe the Chicago team’s chances of winning the National League pennant are as good as those of the current world champions. The schedule favors the Giants, for they finish at home—an advantage always in a close race. But, on the other hand, the Cubs have a long stay at Wrigley Field during the hot dog days of August. That is when weil have to do our real driving. The Giants are apt to find the going particularly rough on the road at that time, and if we can keep within hailing distance during the present road trip, I feel that we will take the lead before Labor Day. Anticipates Hard Fight Once we get out in front, the Giants will find it exceedingly difficult to head us off. I anticipate a hard battle right up to the wire. Four clubs must be considered, but the dope points to the Cubs and Giants fighting it out, with the one getting the best breaks most likely to cop. Until the other day, the Cubs’ biggest problem was getting injured players back into the regular lineup. Now that Chuck Klein and myself again are available, we soon should be making the Giants pant. Jurges Absence Hurts Chicago still is handicapped at that, without shortstop Bill Jurges, who may be out for some time as the result of an operation for appendiictis. While the Cubs are fortunate in having a subtsitute of the caliber of Woody English, Jurges’ absence hurts a lot. Our pitching, I believe, is set for the remainder of the campaign. Guy Bush, War’neke, Bill Lee, and big Jim Weaver constitute our first line staff. All save Bush are in good condition, strong and ready to go. Bush hasn’t been feeling well, following an ear infection, but it is nothing serious. Eight Hitting .300 Pat Malone, Root and Tinning make up our first, line pitching reserves, and they, too, are in tip-top shape. Our position at this stage of the scramble is a favorable one. Chicago puts a fine defensive machine on the field daily, with eight regulars batting more than .300, includ-i ing drivers like Klein, Gabby Hartnett, Hazen Cuyler and Babe Herman. The Cubs are pulling together afid none of cur boys concede the Gaints, or any other club, anything. BREWERS SIGN HURLER By Times Special MILWAUKEE, July 25.—Irving Cohen, right-handed pitcher with Davenport last year, has been signed by the Milwaukee Brewexs to replace Hay Wallace, local hurler.

McMillen, Chicago, and Dick Raines, Texas, went to the latter in thirtytwo minutes. The bout was scheduled forty-five minutes, but Referee Clark disqualified Raines after ordered by Inspector Sam Murbarger to stop the match. Raines out-brutalized McMillen to earn the disqualification. The Texan broke nearly every hold McMillen obtained by putting his fingers in the corners of McMillen’s mouth and tearing. Andy Rascher, former Indiana university football star, won a popular victory from Joe Tonti, East St. Louis, 111., In twelve minutes. It was a rough and tumble go, with plenty of blood spilled.

Hens Wallop Tribesmen in Series First Toledo Scores Six Markers in Fifth; Bedore Smacks Ball. By Times Special TOLEDO, July 25.—The first of the series between the Indians and the Mud Hens was staged under the lights at Swavne field last night and whei} the hostilities ceased the home nine was out in front, 9 to 5. One big inning, the fifth, put Toledo over with the victory. The locals took a liking to the Tribe chucking and collected thirteen hits against Page and Butzberger. Six runs were chalked up by the Hens in the fifth and Vance Page was knocked out of the box. Fred Bedore led the Indians’ nine-hit attack with four blows, including a double and triple. He had a perfect night at the plate. Vernon Washington, the leagues leading slugger, was held to one hit by Bill Perrin, southpaw, but It was a mighty swat over the right-field fence. The home run followed a walk to Harry Rosenberg in the sixth. Montague Shines The Hens beat a tune with their war clubs. Montague poled three safeties, including a .riple. The Indians were first to score by chalking a run in the second stanza, and. the Hens tied it up in the fourth. In the fifth the locals went on a batting spree and sent Page to the showers by tallying a half dozen markers. The Hoosiers “got going” again in sixth ana scored twice, and the Hens also counted one run. The Toledo pastimers put over their ninth run in the eighth and the Tribesmen tried hard for a ninthinning rally, but were stopped after scoring twice.
