PETE DONOHUE HURLS RED SOX TO VICTORY AGAINST BROOKLYN

BROOKLYN. Aug. 24. Pete Dono-

hue the brilliant pitching find of the!

season out pitched Mitchell, one of Wilbur Robinson's pitching aces, Tuesday afternoon at Ebbets Field, in a 10-innlng contest, winning by the score of 7 to 2. Mitchell cracked badly in the extra frame allowing five runs. The rookie right-hander baffled practically every member of the Dodger cast with a slow-curve ball. He allowed only eight bingles and only one for extra bases. This blow was a homer by Tommy Griffith over the right field wall, which tied the score in the seventh frame. Donohue was in many tight holes, but was cool throughout and did his most effective work when in a tight place. Mitchell was given very poor support on the green, their fielding being very poor and helped the Reds In every Inning in which they scored. Two errors helped the Reds score their first two runs and errors also helped in the tenth frame. The score: Cincinnati.

LEN6LEN MAY LEAVE

BECAUSE OF HEALTH

NEW YORK. Aug. 24 Possibility that Suzanne Lengleri, French tennis star, may return to France without appearing again on an American court, loomed today when it was learned Mile Lenglen had suffered a relapse in the bronchial trouble which caused her to default in her one appearance arainst Mrs. Mella BJurstadt Mallory. Mile Langlen attained her first base-

ball game here yesterday and later returned to her hotel at Forest Hills, too 111 to see anyone. It was stated that unless her condition showed marked improvement, within the next few days she probably would return to France. Mile Lenglen was said to be desolated at the thought that she might be obliged to leave without meeting Mrs. Maliory In the return match for which negotiations are under way.

Greenville Professional Breaks Golf Course Record GREENVILLE. O. Aug. 24 Andy Anderson, popular golfer at the local Country club, has broken the record for the Greenville course, making

nine holes in 33, which is one below par. When the game began, ha had no intention of trying to break the course record, but after the first four holes had been made in par, ho decided to try to lower the record.

Gold, silver and bronze buttons were given out to players with the lowest respective scores Sunday." Silver button winners can now challenge gold winners, and bronze winners can challenge the silver winners, while those who won nothing at all tan challenge the winners of the bronze buttons.

By FRANK G. MEXKB The inevitable is about to happen. Money-mad fighters and their doubly-mad managers either must come back to terra tirma in their guarantee demands or the guarantee system for a fighter's services will become a memory. "They've all gone insane," comments Leo P. Flynn, matchmaker for Madison Square Garden, New York. "Every time I try to make a match and ask the fighters their price, they make answers like a dope-snuffer's dream of winnings at a crap game. "I've tried to find some good opponent for Lew Tendler. Put the

match up to several lightweights who never got more than $5,000 or $7,500 for the best fight of their lives; the same fellows who nearly tore out six ligaments a year ago to sign up for $500, $S00 and $1,000 guarantees. And their usual answer is in the neighborhood of $25,000. Want Absurd Amounts "Kids Just beyond the preliminary class want almost as much as Jack Dompsey got for whipping Jess Willard. Ham an' battlers demand for

one fight more money than Dempsey or Bill Brennan earned In the first three years of their careers. One fighter, who gained a fair reputation in the west, and who never got more than $1,100 coolly demanded $10,000 to fight in New York. "My job is to get first class matches for the shows under Tex Rickard's promotion. And it always has been my aim to pay every man the absolute limit of his worth. But when that gang suddenly decides to whoop up its demands to triple the top prices their services should command, the time has arrived when there must be a show-down. Demands Not Murderous.

"I manage fighters 18 of them in

addition to doing the match-making for Rickard. I've got some of the

starriest performers in the game in

my stable but I haven't tried to mur

der other promoters with demands for

my men. I've permitted Bill Brenan,

ranking next to Dempsey in the heavy class, to fight for $1,500 and $2,500 purses while some of the joke heavies

around here are demanding $7,500, $10,000 and even $20,000. "There seems to be an idea ia the minds of some of these birds around

New York that the game is general and the Garden in particular can't get alone without their services. Right

centage basis. This will hit me as

fight manager the same as it does all the others. But it is the only fair way. Advocates 75-25 Division. "My thought is that the fighters involved in the star bout of the evening should get 50 percent of the gross receipts to be divided as they may determine. If I had my way about it I'd make that division on the basis of 60 percent to the winner and 40 to the loser or 75-25. By such arrangement each man would fight to win. "The old story about the killing of the goose that laid the golden egg is being duplicated right here in New York. The avarice of fighters and their managers who have been getting a mint of money and now want all the rest of it there is in the world

is going to sound the death knell for

PLAYERS START FIGHT (By Associated Press) ST. PAUL. Aug. 24. Bill Morrissette pitcher, and E. Wicks, secretary of the Toledo American Association baseball club, clashed in the lobby of a downtown hotel here last night, but other members of the team separated them before any blows were struck. The argument started over the pitching of Morrissette in yesterday's game with St. Paul, which Toledo lost. Later Morrissette is said to have apologized and it was said the matter had been amicably settled.

"Piggy" Mahers, Meats, went down to defeat at the hands ot the Policemen in a Commercial league game, Tuesday afternoon at Exhibition park, by the score of 17 to 5. Piggy ran out of pitchers and the game was given to the Cops after two men were down in the fifth inning, and all the balls had been lost. The game did not get started until late and it was agreed to play only five innings. In the fifth inning both the balls were lost going over the grandstand so the game was given to the Policemen. Four outsiders had to be used by the Police to make a full team. Every man on the Cops connected for one safe blow with the exception of Fitzgibbons who failed to connect Maher started the work on the hill and was hit hard in the first three innings, seven runs crossing the plate.
