Much TO Contend win.

In the light OF the past two weeks the
fluke happened at the New England
championship, at the Hartford Golf club;
and In the Metropolitan championship on
the courts OF the West Side Tennis club,
at Forest Hills, l.. /. While coming
through the latter tournament Murray
mad much TO contend with in the way OF
faulty Iine-judging. In one OF his
matches the great number OF wrong de-
cisions which the official on the service
line made against Murray was great
The man on the other side of the net
made many double faults, which were
never called, and In two instances, at
critical times, these cost Murray the
game. Murray seemed 20 oblvious OF
these errors OF judgment that he was
questioned some time after the match
as 70 what his opinion had been OF the
service judgment in question. lie at
once said that he was aware that the
man on the line was making mistakes
and that one in particular had almost
cost him the match. But he followed
it up by laughing and saying that mis-
takes would happen. and the best way
20 overcome them was to buck up lit
tie faster and play above them. There
was not a note OF peevishness or COM
plant in what he had to say. lie re-
garded the mistakes as errors OF judg-
ment, due TO Incompetence, and In this
he agreed with the opinions Of the writer

According TO a Portland, Ore, dispatch,
Charlie Faust once mascot OF the Giants,
has been found insane by the authorities
Of that city. Faust Joined the Giants In
1911, spuTred on by the belief that he was
great pitcher. Faust told McGraw that
I'm a dream a voice had commanded him

bidding Of the voice No sooner had the

on the bench with the team than the

Moreover, Faust showed extraordinary
