BOARD-FLOOR TENNIS.
Only One Set Played in the Grant
Pell Match,

NEW YORK, February 4.-The big
match in the national indoor lawn tennis
tournament was put on yesterday in the
7th Regiment armory. 1t was the con-
test in singles between Wylie c. Grant
the 1908 champion. and Theodore r. Pel,
the 1907 title holder AS befits a big
match. it was hotiy contested. but after
one set which contained enough games to
be three sets, the match was put over
until II o'clock this morning. Pell won
the set 16 to IA. with points 11S to 113.
Rain bothers board-floor lawn tennis
match only little less than It does q con-
test on turf or clay. The light was very
bad in the armory. and as the afternoon
wore on became impossible. Pell pulled
off some great backhand shots, while
Grant was not so effective on his service
and overhead work as customarily he is
indoors. Pell had the set almost won
with a lead of a in games but Grant
served winning game and squared mat
ters. On several occasions thereafter
Grant had chances to take the set by the
winning of a single point, which the result
shows he failed to win.
After the first set was over the players
decided they must call it off until today.
The result of this match will be to COM
plete the four sem-final brackets. of
which three are now complete. w. B.
Cragin. jr.. beat his brother Arthur, and
is ready to meet the winner between
Grant and Pell. G. c. Shafer. the Colum-

formerly of Harvard, the lower bracket
for the finals.
In the doubles Gustave F. Touchard
and DIR. William Rosenbaum won third
round match from r. L. James and H. Y.
Lake after three sets The winners played
very nicely. two of Touchard's shots being
of the sort that appear in the books but
rarely are seen on a court. Rosenbaum
played very steadily and stuck to his
heavy hitting game. 1t worked all right
in the semi-dar rkness. when the ball got

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

Rawlings of Business High School. who
eridiron for the Stenographers during the
past season, is displaying form on the
cinder path for his teammates as a dash
man, while his running in the 40 has also
been of high standard SO far this season.
This is his novice year at the track game.
but Judging from his performances in the
indoor meets this year he gives promise
of making all the high school boys go
some to defeat him when the spring meet
competitions come around. In the relay
race between Technical, Georgetown
Preps and Business at the Federal games
last Saturday night Rawlings ran as
pretty a race for his school as could be
desired and outdistanced his man at the
finish by five yards, although his opponent
had lead of four yards on him at the
startx
Manager Gutherz of the Western track
team came to the front in high school
running circles when he copped the 600
yard novice run last Saturday night. This
is his first appearance at the running
game, and he readily surprised his team
mates by winning this event. He has also
been running the 40 at lively clip and
will in all probability represent his school
at this distance for the rest Of the sea-
son.
The management of the Central
High School base ball team closed 4
deal recently with the Union League
Park officials for the use of these
grounds for practice purposes during
the remainder of the season. AS these
grounds will undoubtedly be used in
playing off the high school base bail
series, 1t will prove great aid to the
Blue and White squad in getting tine

BOXING BRIEFS.

Harry Lewis, the Philadelphia welter-
weight, will be his own manager In the
future. Harry seems to think that he is
wise enough now to arrange his own
bouts and thereby save the money which
he is forced to give his manager for look
ing after his affairs. Johnny Mooney of
Boston. who was Harry's manager and
made plenty of money for him. has con-
sequently been tin-canned by Lewis.
When Jem Driscoll. the English cham
pion. returns to this country he will sure
ly be offered a big bunch of money to
meet Abe Attell in a twenty or twenty
five round contest. Jimmy Coffroth. the
fight promoter of Colna, Cal, is anxious
to put the lads on at his club. and it
would not be surprise If Jimmy landed
the bout, as he is a great friend of
Charley Harvey. manager of Driscoll. and
also Of Abe Attell.

Wallace. the Brooklyn fighter, for ten
rounds in the star bout at the next stag

for some time. will make his debut in a
bout in New York city tomorrow night.
He will meet frankie Madden, the rugged
lightweight for ten rounds at the Whirl-
wind A. c. stag. Corbett is one of those
slambang fellows, and should put up a
great bout.
Stanley Ketchell. the middleweight
champion. has agreed to meet the winner
of the ten round bout between Hugo
Kelly. the Chicago fighter, and Joe
Thomas. the California pugilist. which
takes place at the stag of the Fairmont

with the champion. Britt and ketchell
will arrive in New York In about ten

NEW WAY AROUND THE WORLD.
Frank c. Clark Plans Trip With Med :.
ern Comforts for Tourists.

To very great extent the veXatous
problem of world-travel has been solved
within the past two years by an enter
prising American tourist agent whose
name has occupied a prominent position
in travel affairs for 'nany wears past
Upon this plan it will be possible to en-
bark in New York or San Francisco Vi,
mammoth transatlantic liner of nearly
20 coo tons. embodying every comfort and
such luxury as is offered by the modern
New York hotel. and make the entire
Journey Around the World without chang
ing steamers. This is truly prncely
travelng-a transatlantic leviathan run
like a private yacht. and we must admit
the idea appears entirely feasible and
admits of great possibilities 1t assuredly
saves some eighteen connections and
changes of steamers.
An itinerary of surprising interest has
been prepared by Mr.. Frank c. Clark en-
bodying every point of tourist interest
along the way. and ample time has been
allowed for stops. The charterer controls
the steamer for the period of nearly four
months.
This proposition seems to be what the
people have been waiting for. Mr..
Clark has been in receipt of thousands of
Inquiries. and many letters have reached
him in his sagacity and business acumen.
Hundreds have secured membership in his
announced cruises The initial cruise
leaves New York on Octoba r 18th. 1909. ar
irving in San Francisco the last of jan
uary, 1910. Another shipload of tourists
secured from all parts of the Union will
he on hand to sail on the 'Cleve1and on
February 5th for similar cruise, taken
in the reverse direction. brlnoIng them
back to New York the end of May
