.SONYA CANNOT
DEFEAT MOYANA
HERRESHOFF BOAT DOING BET
TER THIS YEAR
The Sritomarte, Launched Last Sea-
son, Making Good Time and
Will Be a Hard Boat
to Beat

Special to The Herald
NEW YORK, July 14.-The Sonya,
the Herreshoff- 52-rater competing
in the British regattas, is doing better
this wear than she did last, but still is
unable to beat the Moyana. the Mylne-
designed yacht now four years old, as
often as the Moyana beats Sonya.
The Britomarte another Mylne boat
built last year, is also doing better,
and it would seem from the records
that the Britomarte has at last found
herself and from now on will be hard
boat to beat.
On the Clyde the Moyana won four
firsts and three seconds out of nine
starts. The Sonya had three firsts and
the Britomarte two firsts. The Brlto-
marte won the last race sailed on the
Clyde, and the Sonya was last
From the Clyde the yachts went to
Belfast, and in the regatta of the Royal
North of Ireland Yacht club, in
steady northwest wind, the Brtomarte
got over the line too soon and had to
put back. She then gradually over
hauled the other two and eventually
won a fine race, beating the Sonya 10
seconds and the Moyana 1 minute
seconds. This was said to be the best
race Britomarte ever sailed.
In the regatta OF the Royal UlSIeI
Yacht club the Britomarte won again.
The wind was steady and fresh. This
time the Britomarte got away last, but
her victory was more decisive. She
beat the Moyana 8 minutes 4 seconds
and the Sonya minutes 46 seconds.
The third race off Belfast was also
won by the Britom crte. The wind was
moderate and held true, and the Brito-
marte beat the Moyana l minute %
IA
seconds.
Through the victories of the Brito-
marte Mylne stock has gone up. He
has designed yacht with which Sir
Thomas Upton contemplates racing
for the Americas cup next year.

EBEN M. BYERS WINS
AMERICAN AMATEUR
GOLF CHAMPIONSHIP
BY Associateh Pegs

ENGLEWOOD, N. j., July 14.-Eben
NJ. Byers Of Pittsburg, who has made
many attempts to win the national
amateur golf championship and one
promising effort for the British Ute,
won the American championship today
by defeating George S. Lyons of the
Lambton Country club, Toronto, in the
tinal round of sixteen holes.
They played on the EngleWood Coun-
try clubs grounds. 1t was a stirring
match from beginning to end, as the
former Canadian champion had the
Pittsburg man four down at one stage
of the morning round, which ended,
however, with the representative of the
Dominion being only one up on the first
round of eighteen holes.
In the afternoon it was nip and tuck
all the way, and there was little 10
choose between the two. on the ff-
teenth hole Byers who had steadily i'm
proved i'm his work during the after
noon, took the lead, aud after the next
holes had been halved in fours and
fives the Pittsburg player made a bril-
liant put for three on the home green
and won out by two up
A large gallery witnessed the match
and IL was brilliant scene at the fin
ish, and a worthy ending TO one Of the
most enjoyable tournaments i'm the his
tory of the game in this country.

MAY SUTT0N.HAS WALK
OVER IN TENNIS FINALS
RETAINS WEIGH CHAMPIONSHIP
TITLE
Only Reverse Occurs in Mixed Doubles
Where She Was Handicapped by a
Weak Partner-Also Wins in the
Women's Open Doubles
BY Associa ted Press.

NEWPORT, England, July 14.-Miss
May Sutton of California had a very
easy victory today in the final ladies'
singles in the Welsh ladies' champion
ship tennis contest. Her most formid-
able rival, Mrs. Sterry, sprained her
ankle and was forced to retire after
reaching the semi-finals, although she
was able to continue playing in the
doubles.
Miss Garfitt, to whom was left the
task of trying to wrest the Champion
ship from Miss Sutton, is a good play
er with good judgment and many ex-
cellent strokes, notably a fine side
line drive, but Miss Sutton did not
give her chance. With a killing SER
vice and drive of remarkable power
the California girl played Miss Garfitt
and lost only one game in two sets.
Miss Sutton showed to even greater
advantage in the ladies' doubles. With
hre partner, Mrs. Sterry, partly Grip
pied, most of the work devolved on the
plucky Californian and she rose to the
occasion in magnificent style.
In the handicap she and her partner
won. easily. They also won the
scratch. Miss Suton's only reverse
occurred in the mixed doubles when
she was handicapped by a weak part
ner. In the final of the ladies' open
doubles Miss Sutton and Mrs. Sterry
beat Miss Garfltt and Miss Boucher
6-2, 6-1.

Abdul the Turk Shows Wonderful I'm.
proVemcnt and Is Expected TO
Give Indian Great Powwow
When He Dons Gloves

Many an eastern and middle west
boxing fan has been paying good money
within the past few years to witness
single battles between men of no greater
caliber than any of the principals Sc
lected by Manager McCarcy for his
six-bout entertainment next Friday
evening.
The match between "Cyclone" Johnny
and Kid Montana would draw a full
house in any of the down east cities
where boxing is allowed. Six such
bouts as have been carded would be re-
garded as taking something for nothing
in any other place than Los Angeles
McCarey believes, however, that there
is championship material abroad in the
town and anxious to develop it is allow
ing all aspirants the opportunity of
showing just what they are able to do
All Wing will either sink to his pugil-
istic grave so far as Los Angeles is
concerned or win from little Eddie
Meeney. Young Meeney is admittedly
clever, but if All is the chink for which
claim is made he should give the lighter
fellow a rough tusse.
Montana Kid is expected to put up
the battle of his life when he meets
Thompson. The Kid has ever COM
planned that he had not been given an
opportunity of making a name for him
self, and now that McCarey has pitted
him against one of the best men of his
weight in the country there is every
reason to believe that the bull-necked
Montanan will whip in his best licks
In all probability Montana has not
trained conscientiously for many of his
past battles and the reason for his
neglect was because of the fact that
Montana took small stock in his op-
ponent's ability and also because there
was no money in sight. When "Cy-
clone" arrived on the scene he signified
to McCarey that he was perfectly will
ing to fight for 10 cents if no more was
Forthcoming. McCarey sent for Mon
tana and offered the boys a larger
purse than has been fought for under
such conditions since the opening of the
game in Los Angeles. Considerable
money has already been placed on the
bout and Montanas friends are not at
all backward in supporting the local
favorite. While the Kid has no such
record as Thompson, nevertheless he
may spring a surprise upon those who
are strong for dope.
When Abdul, the Turk, steps into the
ring with his Indian friend those who
witnessed the formers go against Jim
Tremble will be accorded a surprise
Abdul has improved wonderfully since
Tremble gained decision over him and
has learned how to jab with his left
a la Abe Attel.
Harry Baker and Kid Dalton are
counted upon to give a whirlwind ex-
hibition. Both lads are of the aggres-
sive sort, and though Baker is the
cleverest of the two the Dalton boy
possesses bad jolt in either arm.

Could Take but Small Satisfaction
In Entering Athletic Contests
After Capturing Great Olympic
Prize
Ey Associated Press.

DETROIT, Mich, July 14.--William
Sherring, victor in the Marathon run
at Athens in Tic Oiynpian games, says
he will never again compete in a run
ming match.
In an interesting letter to William
Housen, the crack runner of Windsor,
who is now training for the Chicago
Marathon, to be run September 26,
Sherring says he is through with the
game.
my ambition was to win the Olym-
plan, and did it," says Sherring. ANY
other victory l might take would give
me little satisfaction now. And then,
again, want to quit with a clean slate
I'm 2S years old now, and not getting
any younger"
In his letter he gives Housen some
advice on how to stand the long grind
Housen is working faithfully every
day for the long run. Once, and some-
times twice a week, he travels to Am
herstburg, and runs the eighteen miles
back to Windsor. He has the backing
of the Canadian city and will run
simply as an entry from Windsor.
Elliot, Sherring's old-time rival I'm the

Chicago race. and will travel to the
Windy city with the Windsor boy.

OAKLAND BREAKS

PITCHER GRAHAM ALLOWS BUT
FOUR HITS
Devereaux and Toman Make Vile
Throws That Result In Runs.
Naele viii TWirl This
Afternoon
Oakland 5, Angels 2

Jimmy Toman gave oakland a chance
to break its losing streak yesterday af-
ternoon, when he tossed Van Haltren's
erounder over Cap. Dillon's head in the
first inning, allowing Devereaux to reach
third and Van to camp on the key
stone point.
Young Kruger was the next man up
and slammed a single to left, which
scored the bull fighter and his leader.
GOchnauer added to the disorder by
fumbing Heitmuller's grounder, Kru-
ger scoring on the msplay, while Heit
rested on first.
Oscar Graham at last succeeded in
getting a long sought revenge, and in
stead of clouting the ball as they have
done every day since the opening of
the present season, the Seraphs were
content with four little singles, which
in the end netted but two runs.
In order to make Jimmy Toman feel
at home DeVereauX shot Randolph s
grounder to the right field bleachers in
the Oakland part of the initial inning.
With Randolph on second. Gochnauer
sacrificed and Cravath walked. Gra-
ham slipped a cog and threw wild to
the plate. Randolph scoring. Dillon
rolled one to Haley at second which the
ratter allowed to pass on to the field
Cravath skipping across the plate. Ell
lis flew out to Kruger and Dillon was
caught stealing.
While Bergman was stingy with his
hits Dillon's men were unable to find
Graham sufficiently to overcome the
lead gained in the first.
Judge Nagle will be out for Meade
this afternoon and is expected to send
the Oaks back with five games chalked
against them. The score
