BAN JOHNSON WILLING.
But Wants Frazee to Arrange For
 Train Schedule

Chicago, Aug. 27.-There will be no change in the schedule for the worlds series unless Harry Frazee, president of the Boston club, who protested against it's alleged unfairness, obtains the consent of the War Department to arrange special trains, Ban John son, president of the American league said last night.
 Johnson said the schedule was drafted with the object of conforming with the Governments transportation problems.
 However, l wired MT. Frazee that the commission might consider rear ranging it if he got the permission of the War Department to run trains as he suggested" said Johnson
 Tt was our idea to conserve trans portation in every way possible We decided to abolish the special trains for the clubs this year and also op- posed special trains for the usual crowd Of rooters. We are even dis couraging Chicagoans from making the trip, to Boston,
 P11e suggestion of the National Commission that players donate 10 per cent. of their share of the series receipts to war charities met with prompt action with members of the Chicago club, champions of the Ma dOnal Leagu who unanimously voted 70 comply with the suggestion.

New York, Aug. 27.-The Yankees were reduced to their skeleton line- up at the Polo grounds, when Four nier was so Ill he couldn't attend to his duties at first base. Even by play ing John Hammel at first Huggins didn't have enough inf1elders and out fielders to piece out a team and had to place Al Walters, the catcher, in right field.
 This aggregation did not have much success in fathoming the shoots of big Dave Davenport of the Browns, who blanked the Tanks by to and held them to four hits.
 Ray Heating gave Davenport quite a tussle and pitched his best game since the Yankees brought him back to the big city. He turned the Browns back for six innings, but in the sev- enth Ray fell victim to the former YanE fly chasers-Ray Demmitt and Tim HendriX-Who shot him up for a rum Between them Demmitt and Hendryx collected five of the seven St. Louis hits. Timothy whacked a double and two singles and Ray hit a double, a single and a sacrifice.
 One of the best things that could be said in favor of the game was tIsm 1t was reeled off in an hour and ;l half. Even this time would have been reduced had not Heating slammed Davenport on his left crazy bone with a fourth ball in the eighth inning. Dave made all kinds of grimaces while Jimmy Burke rubbed and caressed the elbow, and finally agreed with Jimmy that he wasn't hurt enough to take the rest of the afternoon off The score:

RECORD DUEL IN
 SINGLES CLASSIC
ThrOCknOrtOn and Taylor Go Five
 Sets and 85 Games

New York, Aug. 27.-With the longest match in the 3S years history of the tournament featuring the play of the national championship tennis singles was started yesterday on the turf courts of the West Side Tennis Club, at Forest Hills. The new en- duranCe record was set by Corporal Harold A. ThroclmortOn of the Coast Artillery and Harold Taylor, the Brooklyn youth. ThrOckmOrtOn won. but he was forced to play five sets and S1 games to advance, with the score at 6-S, 6-2, 9-11, 7-9. 13-11.
 The new record will be a severe blow to Palmer Preshrey of Boston. for many years the New England delegate on the executive committee of the National Association. When Presbrey and T. Suffcrn Taller played so games in the national tournament at Newport in 1888 they decided that they had set a mark that would stand the test of ages. However, Presbrcy may console himself with the knOwl- edge that while Throckm0rton and Taylor exceeded the old mark by one game they did not come within three hours of the 1888 marathon in the matter of time.
 Harry Mansfield of Boston, whose connection as referee with national tournaments dates back to the time of Richard Sears and his first title, said several years ago that PreSbrey and Taller played for six hours and had ever so many cups of tea in the in termiSSiOns ThrOCkmOrtOn and Taylor had it out for a little more than three hours, and let ie be said that t was no tea tossing tusslc either
 It was a contest replete with scintil- lating rallies and flashing attacks and counter attacks, yet replete with poor tennis, too. Taylor's stand was a re- velation. It had been anticipated that he would give a good account of him. self, but not even his own father, who thinks that Harold, Jr. is the eight wonder, hoped for so brilliant an ex- hibition by the Brooklyn youngster, who is just r. However, Taylor can thank Throckmorton's lack of practice for his ability to drive the Corporal so far

NATIONAL LEAGUE.
Giants Corral Two.

St. Louis, Aug. 27.-After being knocked out of the Dennant race, the Giants braced and close dtheir disas- trous third western trip by taking a pair of games from the St. Louis tall enders. The Giant pitchers suddenly became unhittable and the Cardinals scored only one unearned run in the IS innings New York won the first game by , to and the second by f to l. On this trip the Giants won only four games and lost seven.
 Tn the first game the Giants clubbed Leon Ames for a dozen hits. Jay Kirke contributed a double and two singles However. Ames was pretty good in the pinches. In the meantime Perritt blanked his old teammates with five hits.
 In the fourth inning Fletcher singled and scored on Zimmermans double and in the seventh Burns doubled and scored on singles by Young and Kauff. In the second game TOney, who has developed into New YOrk's most de- pendable pitcher, defeated Packard, the left handler, who usually gives the Giants a lot of trouble.
 The Giants scored their first run in the fourth inning. With two out Sick inc beat out a bunt and scored on
 
 score for few moments in the fifth with a hitless run. Sticking muffed Fishers easy fly and TOney picked it up and heaVed wildly to first Fisher going to third. He scored on McHen- rvs sacrifice fly.
 The Giants won with three runs in the sixth inning. Zimmerman singled with one out and reached third on a wild pitch. Sicking walked and Rari- den came through with another hit in the pinch his single sending in Zimm. Toney also singled and drove in Sick ing. Tuero then replaced Packard as the Cardinal pitcher and Burns greeted the Cuban with a single, send ing in Raridcn. The scores First Game.

Bad Tn Spots.


 Throckmorton's work in the service had given him very little opportunity to tune up his strokes and he showed that very plainly all through the match. Every now and then he came forward with a sensational rally, only to sing back into a series of innocuous movements of the tyro type. His judgment of distance was bad, but he made up for that with periodical ral- lies at the net that reminded the on- lockers of the ThrockmOrton of last year.
 Taylor played pretty much the same sort of a game. He put up a remark ably pretty exhibition for three or four games and then slid back into the novice class. In spite of the on and off tendencies of the players, the match was a highly interesting one to watch and 1t held a big gallery all the way.
 Taylor on several occasions was within an ace or two of the match, but each time he was outgeneraled by the more experienced youth on the other side of the barrier. Time and again they stood at the net, only a few feet apart, and slammed away for all they were worth. This sort of a match was too much for even the stamina of youth and when the fifth set was near ing it's finish both were so tired that they could barely lift their racquets. ThroclImorton had just a mite moro endurance, and he can thank his serv- ice training for that.
 Kumagae DcfeatS Pate.
 The long match was a welcome fca- f1,y.N |, augural, which saw the first round completed and most of the second round finished too Ichiya Kumagae was the exposure of all eyes and he obliged with a splendid exhibition against Walter Pate, a player with considerable tournament experience. The Japanese won at %. 6-4. co
 Pate tried every which way to offset the accuracy, hard driving and ap- parent!y limit1ess stamina of the Jap. but Kumagao was absolute master at every stage. He played far better and sounder tennis than on the occasion of his first try for the national title in 1916. When it was over Pate was willing to cOnCode that in spite of Kumagae's defeat by Walter Hayes at Southampton the little brown man was very much in the hunt for the championship.
 A host of tennis followers wan dered about the courts looking for the match between William T. Tilden 2d and Paul Gibbons. They sought in vain, for Tilden won by default. Those who saw Hayes defeat Ned Cumming of Harvard saw swift moving. hard hitting machine. Hayes won at 6-2, G--2 G--2, and his game was as even as his score. At no time did he extend himself. and Cum ming brides himself on being. a fairly good driver.
 The one cntrant who failed to live up to expectations was Sergeant of Marines Alex Craven, Pacific coast Intercollegiate champion, who had been conceded q chance to travel far in the tournament. Craven ran afOul of the long arms of Lyle F. Mahan and the latter won at 6-1 6-3 6-3. IL was easy 10 see that Craven was off his game and that he was short of work. At that he a1 lowed himself 10 he trickod out Of no sti0n rather frequently,

Another Japanese Wins.

Scuchiro kash1o of Japan emulated I\umag gae and scored at the expense of Fred C. Anderson, the lanky youth from the Kings County club. at 6-1, 1--5, 6-1. It was their third meet ing this season and each had earned q decision in his previous encounters. Anderson hit hard enough and at times he was a tower of strength at the net but he played a rather head less game and was a victim of the cross court driving of the Jap. J. w. Anderson also badc the tournament adieu, his conqueror being Lieut. H. G. M. Keleher of Seatte. at 0--6, 6--4, 6-4, -. The third of the Ander- son clan, young Frank, won from H. D. Kercsey at 6-3, 6-2, 2-6 6-1. Ralph Burdick, Hayes teammatc from Chicago, scored a straight set triumph over Herbert Bowman at 6-2, 6-4, 6--4 Burdick was fast and accurate and confident. but in cIined to be careless. His one weak ness was his backhand, off which Bowman scored quite consistently in the second and third sets.
 Lone Canadian Wins.
 The lone entrant from Canada. A. s. Cassils of Montreal, advanced into the third round by defeating James $. O'Boyle of the Pelham Bay training station, at 6-1, 6-3, 6-4. Henry B. O'BoyIe came through at the eX- pense of E. r. Thomas, another sea- man, in a five-set match but Alex Her from Pelham Bay had to bow to Rus sell N Dana, the Providence veteran.
 The aviation section of the draw had a successful afternoon. Lieut.. I in straight sets, while Cadet $. How ard Voshell eliminated Royal RiChey, a fellow BrOoklynite in regulation time.
