Everyone may now be prepared to
take off their hats to Maurice E. Nc
Loughlin, the American tennis cham
pion, as the most wonderful player
that has ever been developed in this
or any other country. The California
boy is in a class by himself. No
one has ever approached his wonder
full service, and his terrific smashes,
which ere true and deadly in their
effect, are a distinctly Mclaughlin
product. Only 23 years old, McLough-
lin outgeneral and outplayed English
veterans in the matches for the Da-
Wis cup, who were experts at the game
when Mclaughlin was schoolboy.
He is far above any other player in
America.
But for Mclaughlin, the American
team might have had narrow squeak
in lifting the Davis cup from the Eng
lishmen. Harold H. Hackett, his team
mate in the doubles, was hopelessly
outclassed. The Englishmen played
to Hackett and it was only McLough-
Inns wonderful work that turned the
tide. Mclaughlin was defeated for
the all-England title by A. F. Field
ing, but it was only after the red
haired boy had been through gruell-
ing series of preliminary matches and
was beginning to go stale. Wilding

CBIlD Rodgers, twice captain of the
Portland Coast League team, joins the

a shock to Portland fans, with whom
Rodgers has become a great favoritc
His work the latter part of this season
was SO far superior to other second
basemen in the league that he couldn't
help but land his team the pennant.
Again this year has Rodgers been
made the universal choice for alf-star
honors around the coast circuit, and
early in the season he was put forward
as one Of the greatest major league
prospects in the minor leagues. The
McCredies, as well as the Portland and
alI-circuit Coast League fans, hate to
see Rodgers go to the majors. yet all
are Of one opinion, that he is deserving
OF all dues.
Bill is twenty-five years old. and has
been playing league ball hardly five
years. SO the Maps will find him good
for wears TO come. g
Rodgers began with Rochester in 1909,
and was farmed out to Waterbury.
the Connecticut State League. 1t was
from this point that the McCredies
drafted Bill in the fall of 1910. and
Rodgers made good from the start the
spring following. From the jump at
the training camp, in California, IL was
known that Rodgers was find" and
he has proven his worth.
This, of course, Is Rodgers third sea-
son with Portland, and 1t was last year
that he was made captain. He has won
derful control oyer his men while on the
lisions or troubles on the Beavers field
when Rodgers is at second base, master
of his men.
Rodgers this year has batted in the
300 class, having made 2l7 hits In 723
times at bat Last year he battled .305
and had a fielding average Of .9i7, which

Tech is fortunate that Central is not

Trainers owe their good luck to Roberts
and the fact that Captain Acorn. of
Central. fumbled the ball on the 1-yard
line and lost Central's greatest chance

Central is also blaming its failure to
get at least a tie to the fact that none
Of Its players was able to punt more
than fifteen yards at any stage of the
game. Had Central been able to kick
with anything like fair success, Tech
never would have gotten within striking
distance of the goal. - ..

was recovered by Central on the 5-yard
line. A series Of line plunges took the
ball to the. 1-yard line, where il was

half the ball was in Techs territory
as II was for the greater part of the
second period. and the half ended with
Centrafs defense stopping Tech
when necessary, although the Manual
Trainers had gained the greater number
Of yards.
Central came right back in the third
period with an even stancher defense,
and while the attack was penetrated
