Gallia signed upon this trip. Only
Harper and Shaw remain to enter
the fold, and no trouble is expected
from either of them.
Billy Evans and Doc Ayers got mixed
up in a Jam following yesterdays game,
and but for the Intervention of the
Washington PLAYERS they might have
peeved at losing his game. and follow

pushed him into the club house. AS 1t
happened. Evans and Ayers started to
leave the mark at the same time. again
Ayers upbraided the umpire, who re-
moved his hat and coat for action.
Washington players once more interfer-
ed before any blows were struck. and
SO no blood was shed.
The Griffs must win today to get an
even break on this trip They have now
won six and lost seven. But for that
unfortunate stay in Boston the team
would have had a comfortable margin
The Red SoX linked the Griffs at the
very start.
Unless today's game runs into extra
frames. the Griffmep Will catch an
early train Immediately after the con-
test and arrive in Washington tomorrow
night. They will change cars at Pitts
burg tomorrow morning.
Manager. Griffith gave local boy a
trial behind the bat yesterday. His name
is Waite. and he will do that thing q
while longer before breaking into the
big show. Waite Is a husky chap fully
as big as John Henry, but he Is too in
experienced.
Bert Gallia or Joe Boehling will twirl
against the Yankees Tuesday In Wash

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 29.--Today the
Griffmen get their first peek at cab
aret baseball, as shown the fans by
Colonel Robert Lee Hedges. This
latest innovation in our great ma
tional pastimee had its beginning
here at the Cardinals park and has
proved most popular. The fans like
it. They cheer the singers and the
music and incidentally work up
heaps of enthusiasm to explode when
the home team gets busy with the
old war club.
Cabaret baseball with Walter
johnson battling George .Sisler, the
Michigan bearcat, is to Offset a
double-header being staged by Field
er Jones and his Federal Leaguers.
When the Feds discovered this star
attraction at the Hedges park, they
hurried to find excuse for a bargain
day attraction. They found one and
SO will play long time today while
the Griffs are cabareting.
In order to keep their hands in. the
Griffs Travelled an even dozen frames
yesterday before losing to the Brown
les to /. Doc Ayers and Earl Hamil-
ton had a great tussel. luck finally
breaking in Hamilton's direction.
After two should have perished in
that decisive session, Hamilton singled
past Foster. who made a fine stop but
was unable to get the batter. Shot
ton drew a pass and Austin's swinging
bunt filled the sacks. Derrill Pratt. a
local hero, took his time, picked out a
good one and slapped It to right, scor-
ing Hamilton with the winning run.
The Griffs came within an ace of
coping the game in the eleventh, when
Acosta started in on q squeeze play.
But for Sam Agnew's interference with
Doc Ayers bat the home boys might
have lost. Umpire Evans ruled a foul
ball, though Ayers had missed the pill
by a foot. Agnew had tipped the
mountaineer's bat as he swung. the
ball going to the stand. Acosta had
easily beaten the play as 1t went
through. but Umpire Evans sent him
back to third and Ayers went to first.
Williams came up for Moeller. and
to Austin.
Both Ayers and Hamilton were
touched up freely. but they became
tough nuts to crack whenever runs
might have followed bingles. They had
fine control Of speed and curves, and
put UP an excellent exhibition. while
the fielding was sharp at all tihes. many
hits being cut of by fast work
Luck was with Ayers in the opener.

Many Followers.

DETROIT, Aug. 29.-Sensational
golf featured the opening Of the ma
tional amateur tournament over the
course of the Detroit Country Club,
but little of it was played by the
American golfing triumvirate-
Evans, Ouimet and Travers.

it has been believed the 1915 anna
teur crown would 60, all qualified,
and Chick Evans did fairly we'll with
a 76, but Ouimet could get nothing
better than 80, and Travers turned
in a card of 79 after he had gone out
in 81, which is par.
Ouimet in particular played miser-
able game. especially on the greens.
where he is usually superb. At first
it appeared that luck was against him.
but soon 1t was apparent that the
champion was far off form.

Test Now
For Tennis Masters
Champion of Courts to Be Crowned at Forest Hills,
Ii Where National Title Will Be Fought Out
During Week in Thirty-fourth Renewal.

NEW YORK, Aug. 9.--From all
sides one hears the thought expressed
in various ways that the thirty-ffth
holding Of tho annual national lawn
tennis championship tournament Is to
mark a new era in the American game.
There is not a doubt, however. that the
great tournament, with It's l2s entries.
which Is to begin OH the turf Of the
West Side Tennis Club. at Forest Hills.
Long Island, tomorrow morning at 10
O'Clock, will be remarkable. That will
put the tournament, the first competi-
ton for the American honors ever held
away from the Casino at Newport, r.
l.. into action.
While the setting has much to con-
tribute to a tournament 1t is. after all.
the players and the eager intensity with
which they strive for the laurels which
IL the most important feature. At this
time Of all Of the great wielders OF the
racquet who may advance SO far as to
contest for the finals none is attracting
more attention than Maurice e. Nc
Loughlin. He has been critically watch
ed and studied during his playing at
Seabright. where he yielded to Karl H.
Behr, and at Newport last week, where
attack of r. Norris williams. I'd.
It may be stated that Mclaughlin de-
sires with all the intensity that is in
him to win the national singles at the
tournament this year. He has the good
advice and the hearty support Of every
one Of the little band Of players from
California who will stick and stick for
all they are worth for their great cham
pion They know that Mclaughlin has
been worried and badly advised by
players who have posed as his friends
but who have been chiefly interested in
seeing him removed from his place al
the pinnacle OF American tennis. The
one thing that stands out as to Nc
Loughlin and as to whether or not he
heeds the advice Of h1 fellows from
out his old game to again win the
laurels Is that it is practically certain
this Is his last year as regular com,
not likely hereafter to make his annual
tennis pilgrimage to the Eastern tourna
ments.
The details Of the tournament have
received the same careful and efficient
attention which last year contributed u
make the Davis Cup matches at the
West Side Tennis Club the greatest ef
fort that the game had ever known IL
the world. The stands seat a total OF
seven thousand spectators, and 1t is pos
sible that approximately another thou
sand may be squeezed in on the field
to witness the challenge match in the

next Saturday, and the championshio
contest in the singles. which. with the
prospect OF day or two OF delay. wiN

One of the weli-arranged details n
that the twenty courts Of the general

as in a park and see the leading men in
action. All Of the courts have been pro-
vas. and on this one item alone II 10
noteworthy that $500 was spent in build
ing the perfect backgrounds for the
players SO that the ball might easily
be seen.
Naturally the arrangement Of the
draw which landed Mclaughlin IN one
half hdr and r. Morris Norris WIliam.' %, in an. an
courts during the last week. The wide
gap between Mclaughlin and Williams
positively avoids any possibility Of an
concerned before the finals are reached.
Williams, who won the crown OF the
courts at Newport last season, Is well
placed in the upper half Of the draw.
which is trife stronger than the low
er half.
In the upper section with the national
champion are clarence j. Gf1nln ana
William M. Johnston, the two Califor-
mans, while the East Is we'll represent

In the lower section Of the draw
Nathaniel w. Niles. George NJ Church.
Watson NJ. Washburn. Dean Mathey.
Theodore Roosevelt Pell. Frederick B.
Alexander, Harold A. Throckmorton.
and G. Colket Gamer all should work
through the early rounds without much
difficulty and set a fast pace for Nc
Loughlin during the first days Of the
tournament.
1t is expected that by Wednesday or
Thursday the schedule Of morning
| matches will be discontinued and all
Of the competitions decided in the aft
ernoon sessions on the courts beginning
at o'clock. This will in itself furnish
one of the innovations Of the tourna-
ment. 1t finds favor with the majority
| of the players, however. for many Of
| them object to the matches in the
| morning saying that they rarely strike
! their true form until late in the after
| noon. The field Of turf appears in per-
| feet trim and those who have tested
| it declare that they have not received
false bound OF the ball. It will form
| a wonderful setting for a great tourna.
| ment which will be closely watched by
| all Of the followers Of the game In this
country.
