A..startling contrast to the Stall Iil1ss method with the Braves is what Roger Bresna4an has done to tho Cubs writes Burt Whitman in the Boston Traveller.

ENTRY LIST FOR
 NATIONAL TENNIS TOURNAMENT SMALL

New York, Aug. 23.-Thei fact that the total number of entries for the r1a- tiona1 championship. tennis tourna- ment. which begins on the West Side TenIa1c clubs courts at Forest Hills, l.. T., next Monday, is only 12S created deal of surprise in tennis circles. This is the smallest list that has been received in any of the recent national tournaments, and is attributed to the strict enforcement of the rule which stipulated that all entries were to be made through a club and not by an indHidual, as in past years.
 Atsthe time of awarding the cham pionshlp to the West Side club, it was predicted that more than 800 tennis players. would compete in the all-com- CTS matches, but with the small entry list and the unusual number of courts available, the. tournament probably will be brought to conclusion by the end of the week.
 While there is a falling off in the number of entries, the quality is in no way affected, as practically every prominent players in the East, with the exception of former Champion William J. CIothier of Philadelphia, will be found in competition. Several Californians of note however will not compete this year. It was announced on Saturday that the draw would be made this afternoon

TWO COLLINS
 BOYS DEFEAT
 TANKS { TWICE

Chicago, III, Aug. 23-Two bats wielded by the Collins duet, Edward and John, were foremost factors in. a double victory which the White Sox won over the Yankees on Manhattan yesterday in their second consecutive bargain day perforniances The scores were 5 to and to 0 respectively. broke the string with which King Cole was making monkeys of the White Sox by swatting home the first run for the home team in the sixth inning. B. Collins drove in the cinch- ing tal1ies in the eighth after Cole had pitched himself off the slab- E. Collins put the second game in the home teams locker with a home run smash in the first inning and J. Col- linss turned the key in the lock by compiling three consecutive hits off Pleh in later innings.
 Joe aJacksoI, the newest star in the Rowlandt cluster, made, one hit in each game besides accepting a couple Of passes, sbut was not fortunate enough 10 ofnciate in any of the run making.
 Benz and Coe were the slab oppo- nents in the opening combat, and for e time it looked as if the King was going to repeat his speciality of put ting the kibosh on the White Sox. Benz held the r ankees well except in the fourth round. Benz gave way to Lerno Izedbo1d iii the eighth and let. Russell holae4he gaKdeaafeera fHohad been won.

REM-ARMS SQUAD DOES WELL AGAINST
 CINCINNATI REDS
(Bv Wagnero

When Charley Dooin, now with the Giants had a. job in Cincinnati, he recommended a young pitcher named McClukey. He said if McCluskey ever got control he would be a wonder. We'll, perhaps he will if he ever does. McC1uslzey pitched the baseball for the Reds against the Remington-Arms team at Newfield park yesterday and pitched it everywhere except near the plate.
 During the four innings he worked, McCluskey deled out eight passes. He reached the height of his generosity in the fourth when he issded four and forced in a run, one of four the locals. got that inning. y :. In the fifth, Cocherana, who form erly was on the Boston Braves pay roll, was called to help Cincinnati out. He was very businesSlike and the only man who reached first during the rest of the game got there on a pass. The locals hit McCluskey for three singles. 4 Manager Hezog sent a good team in charge of Tommy Leach, the veteran outfielder. In his younger days Leach was a crack third baseman and he filled that place yesterday. Ivy Win go, the southern fsIugger, displayed lots of life on first and Won Kolnitz was lively backstop. Wilbur Rodgers, the Former Waterbury infieldertf was on second. where he showed his old time skill. Heinie Groh, the half portion speed merchant, led the Reds at bat with two doubles and a single.
 Outside of the second. when they had an attack of stage fright, the. Rem-Arms boys played fast ball Hayes, a lanky southpaw, gave good exhibition except, in this round He has a cramped delivery which forces him to do lot of extra work but he appeared to have some stuff. Cor. kins caught we'll for the Arms boys and Tone excited comment by getting three passes and a hit fR four tiIpes up. Kid Sherwood and Cerago were also in good form.
 The locals scored first in the opener when Griffin got around on his bunt and hits by Pjura and Sherwood. The Reds got six in the second on two passes and hits by Rodgers, Wingo,1 Williams, Ki11ifer and McC1uskey. The last chance for the Arms players came in the fourth when four bases on balls, a hit by Tone and Tommy Leach's wild hur1 home piled >ap four runs.

GRIFFITH ADMITS THAT THERE ARE SOME GOOD
 UNTPIRES IN BIG SHOW

'
 Havlng discovered, to his chagrin, the existence of a baseball controversy into which he had not mixed, Mr. Griffith of Washington hastened to make up for lost time He plunged into the argument over the American league umpiring, and came up snil- ing, possessed of a theory, and anxious to impress it on all corners, writes Joe 5. Jackson in the Detroit News
 Griffith, to do him justice. admits that there are three arbitrators on this circuit who are competent He says that one other is not so bad, and may show in time. No names can be men tioned here, of course, because the Washington leader hopes to finish in the first division, and there is no de- sire to prejudice his chances.
 This umpire situation" said Grif- filth, after attention had been called to his remissness, ought to be handled differently. Implies should be select ed and developed, just as ball players are That is, the league should corral all of the first class young talent that it can discover Then these young unn- pires should be tried out, in cnampion- ship games. Those who made good could be retained. Those who failed could be sent back We handle play CTS that Way. Why not umpires'
 We possess no answer to Mr. Grif- fth's query. There seems to be some thing in what he advances, however It is a fact that much less attention is given to scouting for, and develop ing, umpires, than players. And it is Q further fact that the umpire is the most important figure in the ball game, and does more than any other person to make or mar a contest.

There will be a comfortable club house. well equipped and furnished to add to the pleasure and comfort of the shooters, guests and spectators Many trapsho oting clubs are handicapped by having poor grounds, where their shooting is part ly obstructed by trees or other ob- jects, or else they are located in in accessible places. making necessary a long walk from the road OF trolley. In this the Housatonic Rod and Gun club is particularly well located for they are within a few minutes run of the center of the city, their land is perfectly level and entirely open and free of any instructions.
 Visitors at any of the regular shoots will receive a most cordial welcome and everyone at all interested in the shooting game should arrange to be present next Saturday as the shoot at that time in for beginners especially, as well as those who have shot before. the afternoon and in case of rain the entire program will be postponed un- til the following Saturday.

WILL CHANGE
 WEIGHTS FOR
 ALL FIGHTERS

Cleveland, Ohio, Aug. 2s.-Fifteen boxing promoters and managers. rep resenting as many sections of the country and almost as man- more promoters, yesterday formed the American Boxing Association of the United States. The purpose of the or ganization is to promote boxing in it's best form, to exert control over the sport, to protect the public, the boxer, the manager, and the promoter.
 The proposal to alter the weight linn it's for the various classes was passed. That means that henceforth the limits to be recognized by the A. B. A. are. Bantamweight, 11S; featherweight, 1255 lightweight, 135; welterweight, 1475 middleweight, 160: light heavyweight, 175
 It was feared at first that the New York promoters especially would show only a lukewarm, if any, interest in the association. But, in view of the fact that three Gotham promoters sig signifed their intention of joining, ie seems probable that others will follow suit
 Every officer in the new American Boxing association donates xf1is ser vices. There are no salaries. The dues of both promoters and boxers are so low as to provide only enough money to conduct the affairs of the organiza- ton.

SI5,OOO FOR FELL" JAMES
 NOT RECEIVED


 St. Louis, Aug. 23-There is $15, 600 lost somewhere between Detroit and St. Louis because Frank Navin, own CT of the Detroit club, wirelessed out Of, Detroit that he paid s15,00o and OutheIder-InfeIder Jacobson for Pitcher Bill James of the Browns. Ja- cobson has arrived in St. Louis, but no tthe $15,000.
 Put two and two together. Colonel Hedges tells us that he has not seen the SIS, 900. Like many others, he read the story from Detroit which had $15,000 and Jacobson the price for James.
 The fifteen thou may be nearer to Detroit than St. Louis. Navin an- nounced that he paid the Browns that sum and Jacobson for James. Ja- cobson says he was not appointed guardiai of the cash, so it may be that it is hiding on some Street, prob- ably all crump1ed and wet in the gut ter of a Detroit boulevard.

ANNIVERSARIES OF RING, BATTLES


 19O1-Joe Cans and Steve Crosby fought 20-round draw at Louisville. This was one of many battles between Crosby and the clever negro who af- terward became lightweight cham pion of the world. Steve and Joe first mingled in the ring in 1898, when Joe won in six rounds. Joe was again Ethe victor in a, bout the following year. Crosby made his best showing against the Baltimore black in the Louisville fight, and fair Iy earned a draw after 20 rounds of battling, but in the same year he lost a 12-round decision to Cans. They did not meet again until 1903. when they fought at Hot Springs, Ark. This time Joe won decisively with a knock out in the 11th round. That was the last battle between the old enemies, as Steve was thoroughly convinced that Joe was the better man.
