lovely chance at least to tie the count,
but, as mentioned heretofore and ex-
plicitly, both the Little Napoleon and
Joe Wilhoit were too sleepy to bother
about such things as runs and ball
game. 1t had been long afternoon
for them, but the fans were wide awake.
The fans were not being paid for play
ing ball; they were paying to see ball
played. -,
Wilhoit opened the final inning with
a single, which crept through the in
field to centre. Joe advanced to sec
ond on Hcinie Zim's. blow down the
third base line. 1t was not much OF
blow, but it put Heinie on first. Nc
Graw instructed Holke to bunt, and the
Phillie inticlders, with the exception Of
Bancroft at short, took up their posi-
tions on the grass.
This seeming neglect of Bancroft's to
follow suit had no warning for Nc
Graw on the third base coaching line
or for Wilhoit on the base line: The
outcome was that Adams, the Phillie
catcher, called for pitch-out and shot
the ball 10 Bancroft with such speed
and accuracy that poor Joe was caught
off second standing up. This play put
a quietus ON the rally, for Holke forced
Zim, and McCarty, batting for Rariden,
flied to Williams.

the very first inning, where otherwise
Scott Perry might have been shown
short shrift. Gilhooley opened the
game with q clean single. But on a
hit-and-run play Peckinpaugh drove
sharply to the box and the easiest sort
of double killing developed. The
Yankees got their lone run in the Sec
ond inning. Pratt walked and Pipp
sacrificed. Bodie tripled to centre,
Hannah flied to Walker.
Another good chance developed in
the third. Shawkey opened the inning
with clean single. Gilhooley's ground

Peckinpaugh singled to right so sharp
ly that Gilhooley had no opportunity
to beat it to third. A moment later
Baker hit to Davidson and into a
double play. Pipp, who singled With
one out in the fourth, was doubled

Shawkey was very effective, despite
.. tendency to wildness during the first
three innings. In that time he handed
out no less than four passes. BY the
fourth he had settled nicely. The first
two men to face him in this period
were easy out. Peck threw out Burns
and SHARED Acosta's pop-up. Then
came the big upset. Perkins singled to

Woman Star Beats Sister in
Singles ,of Middle
States Tourney
By Fred Hawthorne

A new woman champion was crowned
and former holder of the mems title
came into his own again yesterday
afternoon in the annual Middle States
lawn tennis championship tournament,
held on the clay courts of the Orange
Lawn Tennis Club, at Mountain Sta
tion, N. j. Mrs. Stuart Green, of the
Ardsley Club, defeated her sister, Miss
Nathalie Browning, in the final round
OF the women's singles. by score of
6-3, 4--6, Go, and Walter Merrill
Hall, champion of 1911, vanquished
Theodore Roosevelt Pell, standing out
champion, by score of 6-3, Go,
Go, in the challenge round Of the
mems singles.
Just SC as to soothe her defeated
sisters feelings, although they really
didn't require soothing, Mrs. Green
paired up with Miss Browning in the
final round Of the women's champion
ship doubles and defeated Mrs. David
C. Mills and Miss Marie Wagner, at
6-1, 6--3. for the doubles title, thus
dividing both championships among
members Of the Browning family.
Seiichiro Kashio, the japanese run
ner-up in the mems singles tourna-
ment, paired with Allan Behr, the
musical composer, defeated Harold L.
Taylor and Gerald Emerson, the
schoolboy stars, in the semi-final round
of the mems championship doubles by
score of 6-3, Is. The winners will
meet DR.. William Rosenbaum and E. A.
Clark for the championship this after
noon. The final round in the mixed
doubles will also be played to-day.
Pell Shy of Practice
As had been expected, Pell was no
match for the hard hitting Hall in the
challenge round, and his defence grad
ually weakened as the challenger got
the range of the court and full COM
mand Of his strokes. The match
served to show that champion must
not expect to defend his title success
fully when he is shy Of practice, and
this was the case with Pell, who has
had little opportunity to play the game
this season.
The champion began the service and
won the first two games. breaking
through Halls delivery in the second
game, after deuce had been called four
times. Pcll's slashing backhand drives
were catching Hall out Of position as
the challenger attempted to close in e..
the net, and champions auspicious
start misled many of the spectators
into the belief that he would be sue
cessful in retaining his laurels.
But after trying out his opponents

I still q gallant stake horse at that dis
lance, for Andrew Miller's gelding not
only beat field Of class, but made
every post winning one, and stepped
The mile in 1886 3-5 to boot. Roamer's
fsce was one of the very most impress
siye performances seen in the East
this season.
Until the promising young colt, Dun
boyne, had sprinted over the nve
furlongs in 0:59 2-5, which estab-
lisAed new record for the event,
BY the way, nothing particularly inn
pessive among the Juvenile male
thoroughbreds had been uncovered in
the East. Dunboyne may or may not
be the ultimate two-year-old champion.
Certainly he ran like a champion yes
terday, and was strong and resolute
at the end. 1t would be unreasonable,
however, to place him yet among the
really great of two-year-old history
! 10 class him as a Colin, for instance.
Dunhoyne will have to show greater
winning consistency before he gains
such distinction.
Yesterday was Dunboyne's third race
h the East, and by far his best one
II was said that he was not just right
on the occasion Of his two previous
starts. He went to the post with
bucked shins the last time out, though
he won like the good colt he is. Those
noes. however, served to put him on
edge. He was absolutely fit for the
battle Of his life.
Eleven Good Ones at Post
A field of eleven babies, the best Of
the age that have been seen in the
East so far this season, answered the
bugle for the Great American. Byrne
was lucky enough to have drawn an
inside position for his mbunt. and this
means a great deal in a congested
ield over the fve-furlong course at
Aqucduct.
The layers of odds did not concede
much of chance to Mr.. Clark's good
colt Odds of as good as Is to / could
be had against his chances at one
time. At post time 10 to ! could be
had for the asking. Henry A. Porter's
High Time was favorite, in spite of
the. fact that he was giving away ten
sounds or more to each Of his COM
petitors.
Mars Cassiday got this field off to a
pretty fine start. Eternal, which was
expecteo TO 1urnlsn dlgn Time plenty
Of excitment. broke in front at the ex-
treme outside, with Sticking and Dun
boyne off almost at the same instant.
Byrne decided instantly to give his colt
afree rein. How Dunboyne responded
no one who saw the race will soon
forget. At the end of furlong Dun
boyne had edged away to a lead of
more than half length, though always
running we'll within himself He was
never extended at any time, and in a
case of necessity might have bettered

much the best Of the others. High Time
never had chance under the heavy
impcst of 1875 pounds, and tailed off rap
idly toward the end.
Even more sensational than Dun
boync's performance was that of Mr..
Miller's Roamer in the Queens County
Handicap. Only once before in the
history of the classic did horse make
better time. Two years ago Emil Herr s
Short Grass. also aged, set record
for the event at 1886 2-5, which was
winning effort of yesterday. Yet of the
two mighty performances there is no
question that Roamer's was the most
noteworthy. Roamer carried 1913 pounds
over the mile in his sensational fight.
Short Grass two years ago was in at
ia.
Lyke, one of the most popular boys
in silks since Johnny Lotus was given
vacation, had the mount of Roamer
and~very wisely decided to make the
most use of this old campaigner's we'll
known speed. Cassidy graced the occa-
sion with another fine start, the entire
field getting away almost as one horse
and in almost perfect alignment.
In two jumps, however. it was seen
that Roamer had begun to pull away
from the bunch. Lyke was in an ad-
mirable position to take full advantage
Of an early sprint. as he had second
position from the rail. For furlong
the aged Borrow hung on grimly under
a good ride by Robinson, but the latter
decided the pace was too stiff and eased
his mount bit before the turn. Kum-
mer, on Tom McTaggart, then set out
after the fleet Roamer, and on the first
turn was Tapped with Trompe La Mort,
two good lengths behind the flying
pacemaker
Roamer stepped to the quarter in 2s
seconds fiat.
"He can never stand the pace" the
clockers said. But he did stand it. In
fact, he seemed to thrive the further
he went on his dizzying run. In 46 2-5
seconds Roamer flashed past the half
way mark, running quite as resolutely
as at the start. Trompe La Mort and
Tom McTaggart were still hooked up
in their private duel at this stage,
though the former was showing evil
dences of the great strain.
Rounding the near turn, Robinson de-
cided to make bid with the old war
horse Borrow. The hero of almost a
decade Of racing responded in thor
oughbred fashion and moved quickly
from the ruck into commanding po-
sition. But Roamer simply would not
crack.
Three-quarters of the way home and
Roamer still maintained his advantage
over Tom McTaggart, had increased it
from two to three lengths, to be exact.
McTaggart in turn had shaken off
Trompc La Mort, which was firing fast
now, by moro than length. Hummer

and took the next four games in row
by series of splendid deep drives
down the side lines as Pell tried to
block the ball off. The champion net
ted his returns many times, even off
his famous backhand, and after taking
the seventh game dropped the next two,
and the set went to Hall at 6--3.
Champion Loses Heart
The challenger started service in the
second set, but Pell, by beautifully
timed backhand drives across the court
on his return of service, won the first
game and then lost the next on his own
delivery. He came back in the third
and made it FL on games by pretty
yolleying, but then Hall took the bit in
his teeth and bombarded his way
through for the last five games in a
row, his driving being very severe and
accurate and his volleying a little bit
better than anything Pell could offer.
From then on the champion seemed
to lose heart, and Hall swept straight
ahead, taking the next set at love as
he shot the ball past Pell from every
conceivable angle. This meant that the
challenger had taken eleven games in a
row, something rarely seen in a cham
pionship match.
The point score follows:

Robins Divide
Double-Header
With Hubbites
Coombs's Strategy Fails in
First, but Cheney
Triumphs

BOSTON, June 29.-The Braves and
the Dodgers broke even here to-day in
a double-header. The Stallings clan
captured the first game in the tenth
inning by score of 4 to 8, while
Robbie's Robins took the second con-
test by a score of to 3.
The victory for the Braves in the
first encounter was due to a timely hit
by Ed Konetchy, who raped the ball
over Wheat's head with the bases full.
The strategy of old Jack Cooms, who
was on the mound for the Brooklyn
team. went sadly awry, for Jack had
purposely passed the sluggers, Wick
land and Red Smith, to get at Konet-
chy. The Pole was insulted and acted
accordingly.
In the second game, the Bostonians
were going along nicely with three
visitors broke loose with a vengeance
and scored five runs.
Zack Wheat, the first man up for
the Dodgers, singled to centre and went
to third on Jimmy Hickman's safs
blow to left. Ollie O'Mara shot a
Texas Lacquer to the same territory,
which scored Wheat and put Hickman
on second.
Doolan sacrificed, Nehf to Konetchy.
Mack Wheat hit to Red Smith, who
threw to Wilson, trapping Hickman
between third and home. Hickman
danced about on the line until he
finally reached third in safety, only
to find that O'Mara had already taken
possession of the bag. O'Mara was
declared out. Mack Wheat went to
second in the mix-up, and he and
Hickman tailed on Cheney's single
to left.
Jimmy Johnson then tripled to left,
scoring Cheney. Olsen beat out ROLL
er to third, Johnson counting. Ivan
promptly stole second, aided by Will
sons poor throw, which went to centre
field, but Olson was caught trying to
take third as result of Powell's long
hurl TO Red Smith.
The Braves scored their first run in
the initial frame on Herzog's single,
an infield out, passed bali and wild
pitch by Cheney.
In the fourth the Boston men added
two more counters. Wickland bunted
safely and Red Smith sacrificed O'Mara
tossed out Konctchy, Wickland going to
third. Kelly walked and the double
steal was worked 50 successfully thai
Wlckland scored. Wilson hit safely to
centre and Kelly crossed the plate.
This three-run advantage looked per.
fectly safe until the Dodgers went on
their rampage in the seventh
The score:
