Indians Bow Twice to Colonels, Lose A.A. Lead to Brewers

) SPORTS PR By Eddie Ash

—

WRITING a piece on tennis, Joe Aston, Cincinnati Post sports editor, described an unusual feat achieved by Pauline Betz in the recent Tri-State tourney. . . . Rarer than a hole-in-one in golf or pitching a no-hit game. Aston declared. In part, the Cincinnati scribe said: “In defeating Catherine Wolf In the women's singles finals, Miss Betz's manner of winning was little noticed by the general sports public, but according to Joe Scherr of the Cincinnati Tennis club, racquet observers throughout the country Are beginning to talk about it as something of a tennis miracle. “In winning the first set, the national champion not only took all six games, but did so without allowing Miss Wolf a single point in any of the six. In other words. each time the ball was served, Miss Betz took the point by either hitting the ball where Miss Wolf couldn't reach Wolf to hit into the nef or outside the court. “With four points necessary to win each game, Miss Betz therefore scored 24 straight points in this set and continued on into the gecond for 26 straight points in all before Miss Wolf finally scored. “Obviously, the champion made no errors and not once was there a doubtful line call of any kind.

One of Most Perfect Ever Played

“MR. SCHERR is convinced along with other tennis experts who gaw the performance, fhat it was one of the most perfect sets of tennis ever played by a man or woman player in the history of the game “BEvervthing Miss Betz did was without flaw of any kind. As far as Mr. Scherr and fellow club members can determine, no player in anv tennis tournament of any importance, anywhere in the world, ever won a set on 24 straight points, “They point out that it was not because Miss Wolf was drastically off form. Ranked No. 1 in the Western Tennis association, she seemed to be playing up to her usual game. Miss Betz simply did nothing wrong for Miss Wolf to take advantage of.

Tennis Authorities Check Details

“EVEN IN matches where one player far excells the other, it is almost impossible for the better player to get through a set without at least making one error to give his opponent a point, even though the opponent fails to earn a point by virtue of his own skill. “Mr. Scherr already has heard from a number of tennis authorities in various parts of the country, asking for further details. He's convinced the feat will go into the official records of the game as the most unusual of all time.” » » GUNDER HAGG'S English vocabulary is being enlarged gradurlly The brilliant Swedish runner couldn't speak a word of English on his arrival three weeks ago. . . .

Games Tight, But Tribe Fails To Hit in Pinch

LOUISVILLE, July 5—The Indianapolis Indians today were the “former” league leaders and were looking up at the Milwaukee Brewers who eased into the American asso-

ciation’s No. 1 spot yesterday. The league lead changed hands in this fashion: The Indians bowed twice to the Louisville Coloneis in yesterday's double-header at Parkway field while the Brewers were dividing a twin bill with Kansas | city in the Cream City. The Tribesters now trail Milwaukee by one game after holding forth in first place for lo, these many weeks. The Indians are scheduled here for a second double attraction with the Colonels this evening, first tilt in the twilight, second under the lights, after which the Hoosiers will go home to await the start of the second invasion of the east by the | western clubs on Wednesday. The | Indians have an open date tomorrow.

Fleet Bird

Debs Garms, 35-year-old outfielder, proved the fleetest of the Cardinals in beating Johnny Rucker of the Giants in the 60-yard dash of the field day race preceding the game at the Polo grounds for the war fund. His time of §2 seconds was too amazing for the starter to believe and after re-measuring the course, he found it to be only 55 yards.
