FIRST ROUND IN FINE
 TENNIS TOURNAMENT AT
 Y. M. c. A. ENDS TONIGHT

Delbert Made and Ernest Kohler yesterday played the hardest match vet played in the first round of the handicap tournament of the Y. M. '. A. tennis club for the 1916 champion ship of the club. City Champion pr. R. Warren Hall last Saturday was the winner of a tournament of the 20 rank ing players of the club, but this tour nament includes all members at the time of starting the tournament and is played giving handicaps to the newer players.
 Wade and Kohler made a beautiful and game fight, and it was any mans match up to the very last, as. the score of sets was s-7, 3-6< 6-4. T, W. Grumman won from pr. w. l.. Wea- don at 6-3, 6-1. Dr. Weadon is one of the more experienced. better play CTS of the city and Grumman is one of the younger, coming players,
 F. D. Hotchkiss, w. H. Garrity, J. M Kicker, H, E. Brown passed into the second row, their opponents hav- ing to default to them because of in- ability to play. Dr, R. H. W. Strang took the measure of w. H. Meller at 60, O.. This was to be expected as Dr, Strang is by far the more experi- eneed player, but Meller with more experience and practice will take care of himself splendidly. w. s. Lacy won from B. M. Lown at 6-2. 60.

ANNIVERSARIES
 OF RING BATTLES

1900-Peter Maher knocked out Steve O'Donnell in 1st round at New York. Knocking out the big Austra- lian was one of the best things that Peter did. Steve landed in America in 1893 and made quite a reputation by defeating a number of good men, including old Jake Kilrain, who was knocked out in the 21st round of a bout with the Australian. Steve's first defeat came when he met Peter Maher at Maspeth, Long Island, in 1895, The Hibernian gladiator stop ped O'Donnell in the first round, and thus established a precedent which he continued to live up to in subsequent meetings. After whipping Jim Dwyer, Owen Sullivan, Paddy Slayin and Jack Cusick, O'Donnell was again matched with Maher. The result was the same as in their first bout, Peter winning by a knockout in the initial inning. This was at Coney Island. In 1898 Peter and Steve mingled again in Philadelphia. Peter was a bit slow in getting started this time, and the Australian wasn't put to sleep until the End round. O'Donnell kept away from his Irish "jinx'' until 1900, when he decided to have another try. Again Peter administered the sleep potion in the first chapter. After that the Aus tralian just naturally concluded that luck was against him, and he didn't fight Maher any more

 CLASSY CATCHER

This Speaker is only one man. The writer has counted him many a time, and makes this assertion without fear of successful contradiction, Giving Iris all the credit that belongs to him for share in the unexpectedly good showing of the Indians, he is still far from being the whole works. He has received valuable assistance from a number of other young men, and one of the most illustrious of these is Steve O'Neill, the Cleveland backstop. This seems an appropriate time for sing ing Ste>es praises, for the energetic maskman celebrates his twenty fourth birthday to-day.
 Stephen is Pennsylvanian by birth and played ball at Villanova College before he joined the professional ranks in 1910 with the Elmira club. He played with Worcester in 1911, and in August of that year was sold to Cleveland. He has been with the In- juns ever since, and his ability has gradually increased until now he ranks among the best of the baekstops of the Johnson circuit. He handles the pitch CTS like a seasoned veteran, throws to the bases with remarkable speed and accuracy, and is a bear at guarding the home plate. While the laurels are being passed around. Steve shouldn't be overlooked. He is one of the men who have made it possible for a citizen of Cleveland to visit oth- CT biz league cities without apolegizing for the fact that he lives in the Buck eye State metropolis.
