RENTON tNl[IF.AST
Tennis MATCH
Two EVA Players Hook Up in
Punahou Tournament and
Give Best Exhibition Seen to
Date-0'DoWda Looks Like a
Probable Winner

Yesterday saw the Punahou tennis
tournament played down to the semi
fuals, which are on today. Yes er-
days results brought several surprises
TO the students one of which was tho
dc feat of Allan Renton by Johnny
ODowda, Ga, SIS. both Eva play
ers put up splendid games, and Rer-
toms playing, IVES only eXcelled by
0Dowda's which was the best that has
been played on the courts during the
tournament. His serve is one Of his
strongest points and il takes fine
player to stand up against him when
he is pounding. the balls over the net.
During the first set ODowda lost most
Of his points from bad Judgment on
placing. The corners OF the court
seemed TO be the spots he liked best,
Tut several times he put the ball out
side when trying 10 get it in the angie
of the tape.
Renton's chief difficulty appeared to
Re on the returns. He always seemed
to put them in a place where 1t was
easy for ODowda to get them, and
handle them as he pleased. However,
in spite of this, he played an excellent
gone, and showed himgelf good
sportsman. ~ " -
Another surprise Of the afternoon
was when Dwight Baldwin defeated
John Watt by a love set and another
set of GO. Watt didn't seem to be
quite up to his usual form. He play
ed hard but lost continuously. Baldwin
played well beginning to end, and
had an easy victory.
Jimmie" Hind, the winner of hard
sci on Wednesday, was winner again
Yesterday over Closson Emory with
two love sets Yesterdays results are
as follows:
Dwight Baldwin defeated John Watt,
CO. CO; David Wadsworth defeated
Hans Fassoth, 6--SS, SO; johnny,
ODowda defeated Allan Renton, 6--4,
So; Jimmie Hind defeated Closson.
Emory, GO, 60.
Today the semi-fnals are being
mayed Baldwin plays Wadsworth
and o'Dowda plays Hind. o'Dowda
will probably get his match from
Hind, and Wadsworth also figures 10
win, though both games will undoubt-
edly be close and hard. IL >

THE TRUTH ABOUT SPORT
IS NEVER A KNOCK
CONNIE MACK CHANGES
HIS ACCUSTOMED TUNE

Connie Mack. manager Of the Phila-
delphla Athletics, is not absolutely
certain that his team will win the
championship o. the American League
next season. Connie appears to re-
allie that there are several other
baseball teams that might possibly
have something to say In the matter.
and. besides, Mack isn't confident that
he has the best pitching staff in the
world.
We've got good team outside
of our pitching staff" says Con, but
pennants you know, don't come easy
Our main problem will be the pitch
ers. II they turn out all right, we'll
be there. Otherwise Wen be luck to
be in the running"

CRACK EN- ISH RUNNER
HANGS UP HIS SPIKES

Alfred q. Wood. the famous English
runner. who last year ran fifteen miles
in the wonderful timeof hour Is min
utes and IS seconds, has abandoned
the career of being q professional ath-
lete and has hung up his shoes for
good. Wood. who is at present in To
ronto, has found the running game far
from lucrative. IN his last swing
around the Dominion of Canada, in
which he ran ten hard races, the great
British athlete cleared but $26 outside
of his expenses. or about $3.50 per
race or better yet, Is cents per mile,
assuming that Wood ran most OF his
races at his fayorite ten-mile distance.
This experience, following long run
of hard luck on the cinderpath, caused
Wood to toss up the sponge as run
ner, and he declares that, outside OF
doing a bit for fun now and then, he
is through with racing for all time.

Small Player Is SIugging for
Honor of Being Premier Bat
ter of National League.

CHICAGO, July 1S.-Tommy Leach,
five feet six inches high and weighing
150 pounds, is contesting with the slug
ging Heine Zimmerman for the position
OF premier swatsman of the Chicago
Cubs. and one also might say for the
position Of favorite with the West Side
fans. There is nothing unfriendly about
the rivalry, II 1t can be called such.
Leach's first appearance at bat in
every home game is the signal for a
round of applause from stand and
bleacher, and deservedly so, for it was
the diminutive Tommy's timely stick
ing that kept the Cubs in the race
when other more highly touted batsmen
were in that slump which threatened to
inter the Cubs in the second DIVISION.
Yet only last season Leach came to
Chicago from Pittsburgh in company
with Lefty" Leifield in exchange for
Hoffman and King Cole, because he was

hottest day of the year. As soon az
you have the furnace working properly,
the flames dancing high and the sizzling

ST. LOUIS, July 1S-Joe Engel Is a
clipper though modest youth today.
His l to defeat Of the Brownies yes
terday is not turning his head. but
rather causing him to think that he can
deliver the goods when he tries.
Some time ago Engel was relegated to
the staff of pitchers which hurls to
the EATERS in the morning and after
noon practice. He had failed to take
his work seriously. Today It Is a
different story and the Washington
youth is not going to allow Joe Boeh-
ling to get ahead Of him when 1t comes
to development.
Engel pitched the best ball of his
career. conquering his streak of wild
ness and aided and abetted by Massa
John Henry delivered to his own satis-
faction and that of his manager which
is today counting heavily The fact
that the youngster failed to allow but
two safeties and turned the Browns
back At will stamps him as one of the
members of the arrived list.
Failure to bunch hits of Weilman,
who pitched creditable game for
the Brownies and who with a bit bet
ter support would have forced Ensel
to pitch extra, innings. was the reel
reason, why the Nationals did not get
runs. After the third inning when
