Doyle won from Gustav TouchRrd, the
challenge round in the mems singles,
and together with his brother. II. E.
Doyle. defeated Touchard and Craig
Biddle in the last remaining set OF
mems doubles.
The game between Doyle and Touch
ard drew a large crowd who were not
disappointed in their expectation OF a
first class match.
Connie Doyle's playing was Of the
highest order, fast and accurate, and
he repeatedly took advantage OF Tou-
chard's weaknesses, and throughout the
game was successful in keeping his man
well in the back court

Doyle had practically won at the be-
ginning Of the fourth set. and though
Touchard played well, he was no match
for Connie, and the end was soon
reached. making the final score 81, -,
6-2, 6-s, in Doyle's favor.
The Doyle brothers had no great dim

and H. E. Doyle especially played well
for the respective sides.

walter Is Right.
There's no need Of going into further
detail to show that Johnson is right and
is once again entitled to be labeled as
one of the most wonderful pitchers in
the hfsSo4y Of baseball.
This year Waiter Is mixing his won
derful speed with a slow ball, with the
result Ihat the DatterS are tooled time
and again, as he throws both balls with
the same motion.
One tning the batters seldom think Of
when facing johnson. and that Is OF
being hit. With the speed that Walter
has It is seldom indeed that he hits a
batter, and for that reason the hitters
stand up 10 the plate.
A catcher, while having some trouble
with Walters speed, finds that the ball
sticks in the mitt better, and Henry.
Ainsmith or williams would rather catch
Johnson than any man on the club.
johnson is still in great form, and
Griffith will use him more than any man
on the club. Walter can stand a great
deal Of work, and during the present
trip of the team around the Western
Wheel the Kansas cyclone viii do more
than his share OF the twirling, and will
win more than half Of the games, for
Walter Johnson is az his best this year.
