HEINIE WAGNER IS BACK WITH
 RED S)X CLUB

Boston, Aug. 7.--[More or the old Red Sox fans vii undoubtedly be on hand this afternoon to extend a warm greeting to Heinie Wagner, who came back to his old love yesterday after noon. Heinie has been re-engaged as Barrows lieutenant and coach and this afternoon the crowd will see him out in his old position on the third base coaching lines looking things over with an eagle eye.
 Up to last Saturday Heinie was manager of the Portland team of the New England league, but the league expired Saturday and Barrow v~e'S' quick to bring him haci1 into the mar ness. Wagner, as the veteran of four worlds championships and for years able assistant to the willy Bill Carri- gan. ought to be a, big help to tho club, particularly now, when they are fighting so hard to get back into the running. There are few wiser coaches than the stocky little Heinie and the results ought to be seen right away.

 TENNIS STARS
 ARRIVE TODAY

New York, Aug. 7-OmciaIs of the United States National Lawn Tennis Association were notified yesterday afternoon that the Adriatic, on which the Australian tennis team is travel ing, will dock today. The visiting players, who are Norman E. Brookes, Gerald L. Patterson, Randolph Ly cett and R. V. Thomas, will be met by George T. Adee, Julian s. Myrick, and other officials of the national as- sociation. If the landing Is completed in time for the visitors to catch an early train to Newport it is thought that they will leave in time to play there this afternoon.
 Various invitations from tennis clubs in all parts of the country who desire to entertain the visitors will be given them upon landing, but their itinerary will not be determined for some days. It is thought likely that they will play In the national doubles next week and then go to Southamp- ton, before the singles championship starts ct Forest Hills the week of Aug 25.

 However Patterson is regarded as a worthy champion. He is a vigorous and accurate snasher and exhibits wonderful long range volleying pre- ciston. Patterson has 8 fast and beau tifu1ly delivered service. As proof of his versatile playing one of his achievements in the Brookes match stands out in bold relief. In one game he passed that formidable players services across him forehanded, then accomplished it back-handed, gained the third point by a long drive from the base line and the fourth with a low cut which tangled Brookes in his own feet endeavoring to return it.
 If Patterson, who is but 23, doesn' t have an attack of nerves under the strain of international competition and plays in that form here we'll con- cede him a, fine chance of conquering. But his all round form will have to be of a higher standard than that dis played in the Brookes match to over come our best racquet wielders.

Just how dangerous is Gerald Pat terson, Brttain's leading expert of lawn tennis? Ever since the man who defeated Norman E. Brookes arrived on these shores speculation has been rife as to the possibilities of our na- uonal singles title going over seas, At first blush the distinction of van- qutShing the mighty Brookes has an effect most depressing But when, on the other hand the details of victory are analysed, 1t would seem, on the contrary, that this country need have no paralytical terror because of the Australians attempt to win our great est tennis honor. R. Norris Williams, William M. Johnston, R. Lind1ey Mur- ray, William T. Tilden, and even the once redoubtable Maurice McLough- lin, The Comet" all have at least an even chance of eliminating the visitor according to the dope" sheet.
 Although Patterson defeated Brookes 6-3, 7-5, and 6-2 his tri- umph was by no means impressive. Patterson won the title in a lean year from a once invincible player who has passed the zenith of his brilliant career on the courts His play was

.'l- l-0UGHLIN IS
 DEFEATED BY
 YOUNG v0SHELL.

Newport, R. T., Aug. 7-Battling away with all of the courage that made him the hero of the courts, Maurice F. McLoughIin went down to defeat in the Casino tournament here yesterday in five sets. The burn Ing speed under which his opponents quatled no longer was at his com mand, and there were only fftful glimm erings of the brillIancy which earned in other years for him the name of the California Comet
 S. Howard Vosheu accounted for the defeat of Mclaughlin. Under his able stroking of the ball the fla nous player gradually wore himself out and capttulated, realizing that the "comeback' for which he had striveu was not for him. Vosheu won the match by a score of 6-3, 5-7, 7-9, 6-2, 6-2.
 In it's way the defeat of McLough- lin, while it was generally expected, overshadowed all else in the short day. Only the third round of the singles was completed. William T. Ti1den 2d, William M. Johnston. Richard Norris Williams 2d, Ichlya Kumagae and Wallace F. Johnson by winning their matches reached the the round before the seni-fnals.
 Aside from the competitions, which were stopped in the early afternoon by rain, the event of the day was an official announcement to the crowd in the grand stand that it must cease it's noisy chattering- It caused a gasp of astonishment.
 Mclaughlin in the second and third sets, regardless of consequences, stormed the net. He was not so steady nor so powerful as in his great est days Still his snashes went sig zling through to win the sets by 1 deuce scores. After that he wavered and failed to force the net position 1 with the same vigOr.
 His service likewise weakened so that Vosheu continually shot the ball to his low backhand as he came up to the net McLoughlin's strokes were impotent against the ball in that position. Even when he got it across l the net it was to feed it up to his op- i ponent, who made spectacular kills 1 fOr. the points. finishing off the match i in a rally of that description.

anything but fau1t1ess according to one of Eng1and's best critics who de scrfbed Patterson's seizure of the title as follows: MT Patterson reached 5-3, 4015 on his service. Then he missed an easy kill, and made two faults, scored with a f1uke, and won the game. It was an inglorious end to the first set of a challenge round.
 Later the c-ttic dilates as follows on a display of ''nerves'' by the pre- sent champion which should be of interest to his American opponents in the forthcoming matches at Forest Hills. MT. Patterson reached 5-4, 40-15 on his service, and then made two faults. These were nothing against him as a match player, rather the contrary, but to miss two volleys as he proceeded to do suggested nerves"
 The passing of Brookes, it appears, more significant than the arrival of the new star who was received with no great acclaim, the writer finding expression of the fact in this wise: There was little of the joy of bat tie about it-such as one associates with MT. Gore-and one felt as in

Recreation Camp Youngsters to Hear
 Naturalist Schurr

The Recreation camp is having some big times this week, times which every boy and girl who is at" camp will remember for all the years to come. The fact is the young people are having the time of their lives.
 Birmingham Schurr, well known as "The Naturalist of the Berkshire Hills" and a man who has had wide experience in causing boys and girls to get the most out of outdoor life, is at the camp, and from early morn till long after the sun goes down. He has the youngsters very much alive to the joys of camp life. Naturalist Schurr was formerly connected with the Crane Museum in Pittshe1d, Mass, and up to lately was the cura- tor of the Museum of Natural His tory and Art of the New Britain h. stitute in New Britain. The latter position he resigned to devote his whole time to writing and featuring on nature subjects, with the sole pur pose of creating in the American youth a greater love for and Rnowl- edge of the wonders of creation.
 Mr. Schurr has arranged a special program in connection with the field day events at Recreation camp to- day, and he will also give two nature lectures. At. 4:30 MT. Schurr will deliver a lecture which will not only appeal to young people but to adults as well. The subject will be 'fBoys and Girls in the Big Out of Doors." The public in general, especially those who are interested in learning just what it means to boys and girls, to get the benefit of camping in the open, are invited to come to the camp today and hear MT. Schurr. In case 1t storms today, the same pro- gram will be carried out Friday.

McGOORTY SHOULD GIVE JOE BECKETT
 LIVELY ARGUMENT

Boston, Aug. Word from Eng land of the matching there of Eddie McGoorty of Oshkosh, Wis, with Joe Beckett, the British champion, for a 20-rounder, on Sept. 2, the date or iginally set for Beckett's melee with Georges Carpenter, will serve to further reawaken interest in inter- national boxing. It is @ condition of affairs to be encouraged, as it makes for the good of. the sport in both countries, and furthers the incentive to develop real ringsters The ina bility of champs on the other side in the welter, middle, 1ght-heavy and heavy clases to champ as in the days of Savers, Mace and other of Britain's ring heroes, has long been a source of regret am4g real sports men.
 McGoorty Is a veteran in the game, having been working within the ropes since 1905. In that time he has proved a stumbling block for a lot of the leaders in the middle di- vision, among the number being Jack Dillon, Bill McKinnon, Hugo Kelly, Dave Smith, Bat Levinsky, Frank Klaus, Tony Caponi and others He has fought abroad on several occa- sions, winning battles in both Eng land and Ireland. Down in Australia he had the worst luck of his career, being stopped by Les Darcy, whipped by Uren, Lloyd and Jim Clabby and figuring in a rather bad affair where in a decision to him over Jeff Smith was reversed in favor of the latter.
 Reports from abroad indicate that McGoorty is in good trim and well able to give Beckett a stiff battle on Sept. 2. Carpenters long and con- sistent avoidance of a ring encounter with the. American must be accepted as a strong point in McGoorty's be- half.
