HOMEWOOD SCENE

Boston, Mtu., July 26. In a game of close decisions the ambitious Whit

Sox were beaten by the renovated Red Sox today, 7 to 5. Boston got the close decisions and thus was able to start off at home under the new regime with a thrilling; victory that was highly pleasing to the somewhat discontented population. Two close decisions gave the Red Sox that many runs, while another robbed the White Sox of a splendid openlsg to go to the front early in the game, for it broke up a determised rally that had already put one man over the plate and two more In a position to score on a base hit with only one out. If those three decisions had been the other way. It is safe to say the Sox would have quit with many runs to spare. As it was they were licked an dare a lot of angry athletes last night.

Just at present the Cubs have their hands full holding third place. Into which the slump of the Pirates in New York elevated Chicago by a slender margin. The Trojans have sixty-five more games to play, the majority of them with the eastern teams. They are at present sixteen games behind New York and about seven games behind Philadelphia.

Duringt he fifteen years of its exist

ence the western amateur champion ship never has gone outstde our ba.111 wick and, with one exception, Chica

go's victories have been double barrelled, as the winners and runners-up have been from local clubs. Now comes young Ned Allls from the Milwaukee Country club and upsets our complacency by defeating Robert A. Gardner of the Hinsdale Golf club, 6 and 5, in the semi-final round at Homewood. His victory brings him in line to meet Warren K. Wood of the home club, victor over Joseph LeDuc of the Calumet Country club, S and 7. The outcome of the penultimate round leaves the stage set for one of the most promising matches in the history of the championship. Wood, who became a western finalist for the third time, has been In many hard campaigns, while the square-Jawed

youngster from Milwaukee has twice

won the Wisconsin title and once has been champion of Harvard. Battle In Today's Match. Earlier in the week Wood would

been a favorite over the doughty little Milwaukeean, but the high brand of golf the latter has displayed In his defeats of Champion Evans and Robert Gardner, coupled with the nerve he has shown, leads to the belief the thirty-six hole struggle today will be one of the greatest of western golf. Allls outplayed Gardner nearly all the way. The Hinsdale star took only five holes out of the thirty-six played, while his opponent won eleven. Gardner was erratic and his inability to take advantage of the openings given him were responsible for his heavy defeat.

London' July 26. "Parke's ground strokes beat met." This sums up in Maurice McLoughlin's own language the grand 3 to 2 game that opened the challenge round of the Davis cup match between the British Isles and America, which began at Wimbledon yesterday. The auburn-haired young Californlan, who during his stay here has become a veritable "darling of the tennlc gods," by his dashing play and mod

est mien, put up a wonderful fight in

a wonderful game, and although beaten it was a glorious defeat. The lawns were In perfect condition for the games and hours before the time scheduled for commencement a great crowd over 3.000 filled every nook and corner. As many as entered were turned away. The games were looked on as the, most important test match in the history of tennis, and truth o tell, English hopes of success did not run very high, as Indicated by the betting, which was 2 tol in favor of America. The present struggle for the trophy has created a degree of interest never before shown in connection with tennis In Great Britain.
