DECISION AGAINST REDS
National League Directors Vote Fa-
 y0rably on Protest of MCGraW

Cincinnati, O., July 1S.-Cincinnati terday, when the National league di- \ rectors threw out the game in which Cincinnati defeated Pittsburgh in Cincinnati on July 6. It was the sec Dnd game of double header and was stopped at the end of the sixth inning
 so that Cincinnati could catch a train. Manager McGraw of New York pro- tested the game on the ground that Cincinnati could have played the full nine innings and would have been able to reach Boston on time for it's next kscheduled game. The league directors sustained the protest yesterday and z Crdered the game played over on July s27.

If the American league takes similar action, the division of &the players pool next October will be $as follows 75 per cent. of the pool 8to be divided 60 per cent. to the win #ners and 40 per cent to the losers with the remaining 25 per cent, of the & DOOl UIV1uSu oIllOtlS bllc plcIN Cl D Oi IllC ssecond and third teams of the two &leagues.

CORNELL CAPTAIN STARS.
Kirk Reid Plays in Sensational Style
 in Utica Tennis Tourney.

Utica, July 17.-Kirk Reid of Cleve- land, newly elected captain of the Cornell tennis team, was the #hero of the New York state championship at the Yahnundasis club yesterday. He won three matches in sensational style and furnished the first startling upset of the tournament by his elimination of Seichiro Kashio, last years chal- lenger for the title, at 3-6, 6-4, 6--4.
 In a morning match Reid defeated Major c. B. Harran of the British army 7-5, 6-2, and he finished the day with a still more one sided tri- umph over E, C. Frost of Harvard. This placed the victor in the round before the Semi-tinalS.
 The other seven survivors in the singles are Charles S. Garland, Craig Riddle, Holbrook Hyde, Frank Ander- son, Harold Taylor, c. J. Griffin and IChiya kumagae the present title holder.
 The most impressive showing in the double event was made by Riddle and

while. His work has been one of the features of the great record attained by the tiremakers this year. Johnson has performed before on the Pioneer diamond and his twirling has always been of high class.
 The coming exhibition will com- mence at 3:15 o'clock. Jimmy Noo- nan will do the receiving act for the locals. Manager Luby will probably use the following infeld: Lynch 1b, Johnson 2b, Fitzpatrick 3b, Feldman ss;. Norfeldt If, Goeb cf, Fallon If. Umpire Barbour will hold the indica- tor. The advance sale of tickets for the game indicates a record crowd.

 Chicago, July 18-Four players are left to compete today for the nation al day court tennis title at the South Side tennis club. William T. Tilden, present champion, meets Robert Kin sey of California in one match, and William M. Johnston, national singles champion in 1916, plays Walter T. Hayes, Western champion, in the oth- CT.
 Hayes won an unexpected victory yesterday When he eliminated Vim cent Richards o, Yonkers in straight sets. Hayes played his usual steady back court game and after a few sets of the match had the youngster play ing his style of game. This was fatal, for Hayes has no superior, except possibly Kumagae, at this style of play The courts were rather slip pery and Richards was unable to come to the net as is his wont Forced to stay in the back court more than usual, he tried to play chop-stroke game against the Western veteran. something which the best players in the country have been unable to do.
