ond Round Safely.
Other Results

Newport, r. l., August I'D. S. Wat
ters of New Orleans, the Southern cham
pion. went safely through the second
round today in the annual invitation lawn
tennis tournament on the Casino courts
The Southern star was given hard bat
tie, however, by r. l.. Baggs of New
York, four sets being required to deter
mine the winner.
A youthful star flashed through first
and second round matches in Harold A.
Throckmorton, a schoolboy of Elizabeth,
N. j., who forced the veterans, Richard
Stevens of Hob oxen and w. j. Clothier
of Philadelphia, several times national
champion, out of the play.
R. Norris Williams, second, of Philadel-
phia, fought hard to defeat w. M. Hall
of New York, his erratic tendencies caus-
ing him trouble, but in the last two sets
he played brilliantly and won
w. M. Johnston of San Francisco, ma
t.onal champion, was forced to four sets
by G. W. Wightman of Boston. H. Mi
kami, one of the Japanese representatives,
and Richard Harte of Harvard, were win
ners in five set matches in which Robert
Leroy and F. C. Inman, both of New
York, were defeated.

MCCOY ELIMINATED
IN GRUELL|NG MATCH
BY OLDER PLAYER
Hardest Fought Match of
Tourney Goes to LANCE.
Finals to Be Played
Today

r. L. Lange was returned victor over
Richard Mccoy in one of the hardest
fought tennis matches ever staged on
the Y. M. C. A. court. The match was
a heart-breaker for Mccoy to lose He
finals by hard work and only missed
going into the finals by the smallest
margin possible.
The match was featured by steady
and consistent playing on the part of
both players, each playing careful and
heady game, and it was only through
McCoy's inability to stop Langes over
head game that he lost
At the beginning of the first set the
Mccoy supporters were confident that
the youngster would emerge from the
fray with the long end of the score, but
some of the older heads who had gone
through many gruelling match were
just as confident that LANCE would de-
feat the youngster, who took the first
set So.
The second set furnished the titanic
struggle of the match. Each man was
winning his serve regularly and it be-
gan to look as if the set would take
At times each contestant would be with
in point of winning the set, only to
be deuced by his opponent. At the count
of 10-all, LANCE took the offensive and
put Mccoy on the defensive, rushing
him to the service line and either
smashing the ball or cutting it out of
McCoy's reach.
LANCE finally won the set by the
score of 1910. 1t was thought at the
time that losing this set would take the
heart out of Mccoy, but he started into
the third set with determination to
win. After carrying the set to sail
Lange took McCoy's service and won
the set by the score of 75.
The fourth set was featured by the
strategy employed by LANCE. He knew
that Mccoy still had fight in him, even
though the count was two to one
against him, and his tactics in this set
were to wear Mccoy down by placing
his shots and only returning the balls
he could reach without any great effort.
This style of play gave Mccoy the
fourth set by the score of 60, but 1t
proved splendid head work on the part
of Lange for he went into the fifth
and last set with renewed vigor and
dash and completely outclassed his OPP
ponent, winning by the score OF 6-2.
1t was a great match throughout and
was featured not only by strength and
skill, but by headwork as well. Those
who were present and saw the match
had nothing but praise for young Nc
Coy and prophesied that he would
make a tennis player with a great fu-
ture. LANCE will meet McWayne today
at 1870 on the Y. M. c. A. Twenty
fourth street courts to decide whose
name shall grace the Cosby cup.

The game was a great pitching duel
between Big Boy Ards for the Dodgers
and Smoky Bob Loveless for the Mil
lers For Is innings the two twirlers
fought in a game that is yet to be sur
passed in amateur circles. Ards had
the better of the argument, although
Smoky Bob's speed allowed him to
claim 10 of the Dodgers via the strike
out route. Ards, however, allowed
but six hits in the Is sessions, two of
these being infield scratches.
Loveless pitched swell ball and it
must be admitted, with excellent sup
port, might have Jared much better.
Each team counted once in the earlier
frames through errors, but once the
struggle had gotten under way, rank
fielding disappeared and the teams set
tied for long battle.
Both teams fought hard for the game
They battled as though life depended
on the verdict. Smoky Bob and Big Boy
Ardis were the lone hopes of their fol-
lowers and both held up under the
heavy fire exceedingly well. After the
seventh inning it was apparent that the
first team to push across tally would
be returned the victor. Both teams bat
tied inning after inning until the
fifteenth, when the Dodgers hammered
across the winning tally.
DODGERS SCORE
The Dodgers gained an early lead,
due to the generosity of Smoky Bobs
teammates. With one man down, Price
Clayton singled to right and took sec
ond on Aylock's error. Wyatt struck
out but Taylor hit to Ballard, who
threw wild to first, allowing the big
mid-gardener his life. Clayton scored
on the play by some nifty base run
ming.
The Millers tied the count in the
second. Carter singled to left as an
opener. H. Tucker laid down neat
sacrifice and Ards threw the ball into
right field, allowing Carter to score and
Tucker to reach third.
Neither side scored then until the
sixth, when the Millers jumped into the
lead. With two down, Rooney singled
to center. Carter hit high fly back
of first and Wyatt dropped it, allowing
Rooney to race to third. H. Tucker
singled to right and Rooney scored.
The Dodgers tied the count In, the sew
enth. Taylor opened the session with
single to center and was sacrificed by
Baker. Veitch singled to deep short
but Taylor was held on third Herr
struck out but Mackey came through
with safety to left, scoring TAYLOR
with the tieing run.
