MATHEY IS VICTOR
OVER G.. TOUCHARD
Princeton Tennis Player
Hangs Up Sensational
Reversal.

New York. n. Y. June 57-It re-
NAMED for Dean Mathey, the plucky
little lawn tennis champion OF Prince
ton, to hang up the sensa tiona reVer-
sal in the metropolitan championship
tournament. when he defeated Gustave
F. TOuchard in three fast sets at 10
2-6, ga. <on the courts of the West
Side Tennis club.
In his recent matches Touchard,
rated last season as the fourth best
player in the country, has displayed
diminishing skill. That he lacks the
ability to make the wonderful recover
les which daZzled the crowds was eVl-
dent when he attempted to overhaul
Mathey He was not equal to the strain
and the Princeton player scored the
final games. completely outplaying his
opponent
Another match which caused surprise
at the ease with which it was won was
that in which Raymond d. Little de-
feated Nathaniel W Niles, the recent
winner of the Massachusetts state
championship, by the score of 81, 81.
Little, rated as No. last season, and
Niles at No g. The burning speed
with which Little brought off his drives
and his splendid accuracy kept him
safely in the lead to the end. He fin
ished the second set with run of six
straight games and coupled with
Mathey for the semi-final bracket.
The other matches in the singles. by
which the original field narrowed to
eight survivors, lacked the dash and
daring of Mathey and Little victories.
Arthur :. Dabney the famous Harvard
player, went through three in and out
sets with Wylie c. Grant before the
national indoor champion took his
ticket of departure, to the score of As.
60 Ga There was a lot of in and
out play in this contest. especially
when the umpire got the score mixed
up. Several times the men stopped the
game and argued with him, much to
the amusement of the gallery.

BASEBALL QUESTION
ANSWERED HERE

Fit Stockton, n NJ.
Editor FL PasO Herald:
Please answer the following ques-
ton in baseball: A runner on first
base; man at bat knocks a ground ball
to first base, and first baseman fields
ball and touches the bag Does the
man on first base have to be tagged
with the ball to be put out or can he
return to first base again2 The ques-
tion is, is he not forced to vacate first
base or does the play putting batter
out first eliminate the force?
J. I. Van Zandt.
The man on first has to be tagged.
The force ceases when the first base
man touches the bag That put out the
batter, so there is no force. The run
ner on first must be touched with the
ball while off bag to put him out. If
the first baseman had thrown the ball
to second before touching first sack,
then the runner would have been freed.
The bail then could be thrown to first,
making double play.-Sporting Edi-
tor.
