WILLIAMS DROPS OUT.
Tennis Champion Fears Weak Ankle
and Defaults to Washburn.

SOUTHAMPTON, l.. l.. August 25.-
Richard Norris Williams, I'd, withdrew
from the invitation tournament at the
Meadow Club yesterday rather than
risk injury to his weak ankle in what
promised to be hard match with
Watson NJ. Washburn. The latter
thereby went into the semi-final round
after having played only one match in
the tournament The other semi-final
round brackets were taken by Joseph J.
Armstrong of Philadelphia. Roland
Roberts of San Francisco and William
J. Clothier of Philadelphia.
Armstrong advanced by defeating the
Harvard player. Richard Harte. at 6-3,
Ga. and will play Washburn today.
Roberts victory was scored over Harry
Sparker in a three-set contest, which
the Californian won at 4-6, 6-3, GO.
Clothier defeated Francis T. Hunter,
the former Cornell captain, IS. Ga.
The withdrawal of Williams was not
expected. The former champion has
been going far from his best form dur
ing the three tournament matches
which he has played, and he feared to
try his ankle in hard match. The
previous matches did not present
formidable possibilities, and Williams
felt that he could get necessary prac-
tice by competing. Wash burn, how
ever promised hard contest, and Will
liams decided that the risk of further
injury, which might jeopardize his
chances in the national championships
at Forest Hills next week, was not
worth while.

Yesterday morning Fred Mcleod con-
tinued his good golf begun Monday
morning with a score of ~. Yesterday
he was SO, 37-7a, a mark which any
one would be proud to shoot over the
Columbia course. Fred is not yet sat
isied with the way he is hitting the
ball, and claims he missed a few shots
vest erday, but even with the fact that
he took a six on the third hole he could
not have missed many others and still
got around in 10.
Fred is not much in favor of the Dis
trict professional championship. for the
reason that ii would take him away
from his course for too long a period
and the matter now stands in this way
The original proposition was to have
each of the local clubs put up a sum OF
money, probably SIS. and to have d
round over each course. This would
take five afternoons, but at the same
time afford the members of the differ
ent clubs a chance to see the pros in ac-
ton over their own course. 1t is prob
able that no action will be taken on the
subject until the next meeting of the
District Golf Association in December.

formidable offensive factor. 1t was
keily's hurting which prevented scor-
ing by Holy Name at critical stages,
ana II was Moran's bat which connect
ed for the three-bagger that drove the
only two scores of the game over the
plate.
1t is questionable if Kelly has pitch
ed better pail at any other time this
season. His curve ball broke with un-
usual sharpness, and he seemed to have
good enough control to put the ball
over the plate when he was compelled
to do so. Twice Kelly pulled himself
out of holes. In the next to the last
inning he had men on first and second
and one down. and got out without
much difficulty, aided by a splendid
play by Moran at short. Again. in the
final period, Bischoff ued Off with a
down on strikes. The best that Holy
Name could do against Kelly delivery
was to get three hits, while an even
dozen of its players went down by
Strike-outS.
Tacks Mccarthy plays center field for
Holy Name when the ball is hit in
that direction. At other times he goes
over and plays left center and once in
while takes a trip over into right
center to make play. In other words,
young Mr.. Mccarthy is covering about
two-thirds of the outfield for Holy
Name. And it never matters much to
Tacks whether the other fellow is in a
position to get the ball: he goes over
and makes the catch just the same. Nc
Carthy Is proving himself very
capable all-round player.
In the sixth inning it looked as if
Kelly was in quite hole. but he got

hitting at three bad balls. but the third
