things at the Hilltop began to put on
the appearance of real work in prepara-
tion for the opening game with the
Princeton Tigers on September 25
Physical Director John d. O'Reilly put
the squad through some new stunts at
the practice yesterday. Quite a little
time was spent in teaching the candi-
dates quick starts, while the tossing of
the medicine balls and wrestling bout be-
tween the members of the squad took up
most of the time during the afternoon
Two local high school boys reported
for the squad. Flip" Wells, formerly of
Eastern High School, who was all-high
selection two years agoo, fell in line
while Tex Bailey. of Technical High
School. was the other local youngster

YOUTH CAPTURES
Tennis TITLE
William M. johnson, of Cali
fornia, Wins National
Championship.
MATCH GOES FOUR SETS

Forest Hills. Long Island. Sept. t.
William NJ. Johnston, of California. is
the new national tennis champion. In
one of the most sensa tional matches In
the history of the sport he defeated
Maurice E. Mclaughlin. also Of Cali
fornia. at the West Side Tennis CLUB
here this afternoon. A remarkable gal
lery of about 10000 people saw the match.
Twenty years old and a champion-the
youngest champion in the annals of the
game. and great champion, and a
champion at the expense Of the most re-
markable player of all time Mclaughlin.
the conqueror of the wonderful Anthony
Wilding and the crafty Norman Brooks
in the last International Davis Cup
matches-that is William NJ. Johnston.
Yet he is more than the champion of
the country. He is a modern edition Of
Richard the Lion-hearted raised to
the nth power. for in his match today he
evinced all convincing evidence that his
slight and 1.-THE frame housed the heart
of a giant-a coura geous giant. Nc
Loughlin, too. splits the honors with him
in this respect.
That one of the two players had to
lose was the only resrettable feature Of
the match. That is the sort Of tennis.
they played, and that is the sort of
craftsmanship they displayed. And that
also was the general impression OF the
spectators. for when the match was over
and Johnston was being carried off the
field on the shoulders of Lyle E. Mahan
and Fl. c. Cutler and Mclaughlin by
Tom Bundy and Ward Dawson. a mighty
roar OF cheers that had to be heard to be
fully appreciated went up.
Twenty years old. 1t is almost in
conceivable that a kid of such an age
should beat the cyclonic comet. a
player who had esta blished beyond all
doubt, in two hemispheree. his right
to be known as the peer of them all.
Yet it is an indisputable fact. john
ston earned his victory and fully de-
ors which will be his. He clearly
demonstrated his superiority.
And Mclaughlin played better ten
mis- today than he did in any of the
in which he participated
since his arrival in the East about
six weeks ago He was the old Nc
tered down the defense Of the worlds
best players by the sheer ferocity of
his smashing attack and wonderfuf
vitality. Because of this one marvels
more than ever over Johnston's win
and appreciates it the more for It.

NOTES OF D0UBLE.HEADER.

Washington took three out Of the
four-game series.
Sammy Mayer, the brother Of the
Phillies' pitcher, had one hit in each
game. He switched from the outfield
to first base in the middle of the sec
ond game.
Lajoie went to shortstop and con-
tinued his excellent work. He hand
led eleven out of twelve chances in
the two games. Larry has played
every position in the infield. He also
had a double in each fray.
Walsh made a sensational catch of
Williams liner in the ninth. Of the
opener. grabbing q low liner ankle
high.
In the two games Mack's pitchers
gave fourteen bases on balls.

game away when thirteen men were

Griffith has q hard task ON his
hands to rebuild before the start of
the 1915 season." declares q writer
on the Evening Ledger.
Ihis same expert short while ago
announced through his columns that both
Clyde Milan and Chick Gandil were
about through and that they would
be consigned to the minors next year.
It Is sometimes interesting to know
what others think Of US, and. as the
Quaker City expert says. Grin may have
a hard task on his hands. but the fact
remains that Washington possesses a
mighty good ball club Just as It stands
today. one able to give a good account of
itself against any team in the American
League
What Grin needs is just two more good
hitters. and he is making every effort
to obtain them.
Give the Nationals an infielder able to
clout the ball at a 800 clip also an out
fielder in the same class. and then watch
the fur fly. The Griffmen would be in
the pennant fight from the start
No matter what others may think of
us, the majority of local fans will agree
with the writer that Griff hasn't such
a fearfully hard task for 1916. He only
needs a couple of hitters.
The Old Fox is after them and there's
no telling what may happen.

SECOND GAME.

Washington used Rice. a pushing re-
cruit from Petersburg. Va, in the last
game. He was a complete battle after
the first two innings. The Mackmen got
to him for four hits in that time. but
in the remaining seven innings could only
find one. Dana Fillingham went along
nicely until the sixth, when Oldring' S
error started something and Fillie sud
denly became ratified, and on a combina-
tion of walks and safe hits the Washing
tons picked up five runs.
Bruno Haas worked the last three in
ninGs against Griff's team, and, strange
to say. he did not give a base on balls.
The visitors made four hits and one run
