and the veteran internationalst had
plenty Of opportunity this afternoon to
show his mettle
Wright was far better to-day than he
has been all week, and surprising
thing about his play this afternoon lay
in the fact that he showed his most
brilliant tennis in the last set, when
it looked as though kumagae and Tay-
Tor had started an irresistible attack
1t was then that Wright moved up to
the net, and, with Alexander at his
side, volleyed the way to victory
In the third and fourth sets the for
mer national singles champion was
short with his lobs, and, in spite of
this, persisted in lobbing, with the re-
suit that Taylor and Kumagae bonn
barded the veterans off the court with
splendid smashing.
Taylor, the youngest player of the
four. played the strongest game he has
shown this season, and while it must
be said that his work suffered a little
in comparison with that of the others.
he deserves all kinds of praise for the
manner in which he stood up to his
guns from start to finish
Tilden and Richards took the meas
ure of Binzen and O'Boyle without un-
due exertion, although in the last set
the Pelham Bay sailors, by rushing the
net and trading fast voleying shots,
brought the games to deuce at 5-all.

''IopsyT Turner J"
Big actor in
anks' Defeat
Aged Baseballer Aids In
dams to Maintain Pace in
Pennant Race
By Charles A. Taylor

The Cleveland Indians, inspired by
the example set by Topsy Turner, who
has been baseballing for some twenty
odd years and is still going strong, had
an easy time yesterday afternoon dc
feating the Yankees in the first game
Of the final series between the two
clubs at the Polo Grounds. The score
was to 2. The victory of Lee Fohls
men was needed as the Red Sox over
threw the White Sox in Boston, thereby
maintaining their two game lead for
the pennant
The activities of the aged Turner in
sense soothed the disappointment Of
the fans caused by the harsh treatme Mt
the Huggins team received. Topsy
made himself prominent the very first
time he came to the bat in the second
inning, when he doubled to left. On
his next appearance with the stick in
the fourth ne shot another two baser
to the same field.
In the fifth Topsy rested up bit by
making only a single, but in the eighth
he clouted the ball to right centre for
of sending Turner to Cuba for the win
ter so the "youngster" will have a
chance to play a little ball and get in
real trim for tie campaign of next
year, if there happens to be cam
paign.
The pitchers in yesterdays catas-
trophe, speaking from the Yankee
standpoint. were Slim Love, Ray Keat-
ing and Sanders for the home team
and Jim Bagby for the visitors. Slim
seemed to be in a daze He couldn't
al C,tt I,
when he had to throw there and he
couldn't see the ball when it was
thrown right at him. A lovely combi-
nation.
Slim made two errors in the first
inning and walked two men and allowed
two hits in the second, two runs re-
sultlng, one in each inning In the
fourth he was touched UP for three
more hits and another tally, while in
pushed the bali into the right field
stand for homer and Miller Huggins
pushed Slim right off the diamond
The Indians teased Heating Sims
successor, along until the eighth, when
they drove him from the box, Topsy
Turner starting the bombing with his
triple. Sanders relieved Ray and man
aged to last until the end.
he Yankees made one run in the
first thanks to triple by Gilhooley
and sacrifice fly by Del Pratt. In the
nlnth an error by Chapman, single
by John Hummel, batting for Sanders,
and a sacrifice fly from the bat of Gill
hoo'ey gave the "Huggers" their second
and final counter.
The, fielding feature Of the afternoon
was the catch made by Jacques Four
nier, the new Yankee first baseman. in
the second inning. O'N>ll the Cleve-
land backstop, hit high foul back of
first. Fournier stuck out one hand and
grabbed the ball Just as it was about
TO land IN one of the boxes. This play
brought little joy into the hearts Of
the few witnesses of the tragedy.
The score.
