JACK BRITTON AND
TED LEWIS READY
FOR GONG TONIGHT

New York. July 2S.-Jack Brit
ton, recognized worlds welter-
weight champion, is ready for his
fight with Ted kid Lewis tonight
at the Armory A. A, Jersey City.
The champion wound up his siren
nous work at Grupp's gymnasium,
and as he left the ring Britton re-
marked to the admiring coterie:
well. I'm fit to knock out Ted
Lewis once again Just to show him
I'm his master
Britton has spent the last 10
davs working hard for this battle.
If is the first real fight he has
been signed up for since he wrest-
cd the title from Lewis. The cham
MON realizes that Lewis will fight
bitterly. for the latter feels he lost
his crown through taking matters
TOO lightly. Lewis always felt pos
tive he could beat Britton, and
now that he has a championship to
hattie for will work just that much
harder.
Lewis finished his work at Jimmy
De Forests quarters at Long
branch and wired his manager,
Charley Harvey, that he was at
fop of his form and ready to hight
far his life. Lewis will be glad 10
hear that Britton intends to make

ures that he VII lsurely recover

cNY WINS TWO.

Cincinnati, O., July 2S.-The Reds
won a double header with Pitts
burgh yesterday, before the largest
crowd OF the season. In the flrst
game Sa1ee was hit hard, but re-
ceived fast support, while tho Reds
punched hits successfully of Pom
der, who was relieved in the seventh
by Mayer.
The second game consisted of
only three innings, being the con-
ttnuHtIon OF the game of July 6,
which was called at the end OF the
sixth to allow the Reds to catch q
train. The New York club protested
this game on the ground that 1t
should have gone nine innings, and
President Hsyd1er allowed the pro-
test, directing the two teams to play
the last three innings today.
Pittsburgh scored IN the eighth
on a single by Barbara and a
mnffed ay by Neale. but the Reds
also scored In their half on NeaIe's

MAY DETERMINE
WORLDS CHAMP
TENNIS PLAYER
National Singles Tournament al
Forest Hills, n. Y, to be Big
Event Next Month.

New York, July 28.-The title of
worlds tennis champion probably
will be claimed for the winner of
the coming United States national
singles tournament on the courts of
the West Side club, Forest Hills
N. Y, next month. Letters sent out
by the United States National Lawn
Tennis association gave very good
reasons for such a claim.
Wimbledon, cradle Of tennis in
England, always has been lookeG'
upon as the producer of the best
players, but in view of the world
wide scope entries for the August
meet the honor probably will be
transferred to the Forest Hills
club.
Watson M Washburn is A. e. F.
champion, while Gerald L. Patter-
son, who is presumed to be aboard
ship en- route to this country, won
the British championship and then
defeated Norman E Brookes of
Australia.
Patterson Best Overseas.
France, Belgium, Roumania,
OOULu A1T1Cd, anu ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
were represented in the early
spring playing abroad, so it may
quite reasonably be assumed that
Patterson is the best Of the over
seas players. Therefore the win
ner of the tourney at Forest Hills
will have something on which to
base his claim of world supremacy.
Tennis play Of the last week,
gradually pointing toward the great
effort on Long Island, beginning
Aug. rs, has established at least
two facts. The first and most i'm
portant of these is that William NJ.
Johnston, the former national title
holder, is playing the game of his
life.
His comparatively easy defeat of
Vincent Richards, the youthful star
of Yonkers, in the northwestern
tourney at Minneapolis, left no
doubt as to what height he has
reached. His easy victory in the
clay court championship at Chicago
was just as inspiring.

FEATHER KING
OF ANTIPODES
after CHAMPS
Jimmy Hill Takes Things Easy in
Preparation for Strenuous
Campaign Among Best.

Jimmy Hill, the Australian feath-
erweight champion, who came to
this country month or so ago for
the special purpose OF meeting
Johnny Kilbane, the American title
holder, in a bout for the worlds
championship, is taking things
things easy and becoming accli-
mated.
In the meantime the Australian
featherweight champion would like
to take on any of the stars in the
lightweight division, including the
champion, Benny Leonard; Johnny
Dundee, Richie Mitchell, Lew Tend
ler, Joe yelling. or any of the 9TH
er leading lightweights. Hill has
taken on a few pqhnds in weight
since his arrival in the city.
1t is reported from the Antipodes
that Hill is the greatest feather
weight Australia has had since the
days OF Young Critic, who is con-
coded TO have been the cleverest
exponent of the art of self-defense
the prize ring ever developed. Will
liam Lawless, who for a number
of years was the boxing editor of
the Sydney Referee and who now
holds down the same position on
Fair Play, in commenting on Hills
trip to the United States, said that
the Americans were in for a treat
when they watch the great feather
weight in action, as, in his opinion.
there never was a man who had
left Australia, including the great
Young Critic, who could display
greater cleverness than Jimmy Hill.
William F. Corbett, a leading
sporting authority in Australia,
also paid a glowing tribute to the
prowess of the featherweight cham
pion. In commenting on Hills
fighting ability, Mr.. Corbett said
that Jimmy was without doubt one
Of the cleverest fighters ever seen
in action. and in fairly good con-
dition he would be likely to out
point any man within six or seven
pounds of his weight.
Jimmy Clabby. the Hammond.
Ind, middleweight, who has been
boxing in Australia for several
years, was so impressed with Hills
fighting ability that he offered to
take the Australian under his man
agement In Clabby's opinion Hill
is one of the most scientific expo
nents of the manly art of self-de-
fence the glove game ever knew,
and Jimmy said he was sure that
the Australian champion would
have no trouble winning his bouts
over here.
Eddie McGoorty. the Oshkosh
middleweight, is another American
who thought we'll of Hill. McGoor-
ty considered Hill one of the trick
lest and best fighters in the world
and said the foreigner would easily
hold his own with any of the 130-
pound boys IN this country.
Jimmy Hill, thoroughly At and
IN the best condition, is as far ad-
vanced IN his own class as the late
Les Darcy was in his DIVISION" Is
what Snowey Baker had 10 say
upon learning that Hill was about
to sail for America, land will have
little trouble holding his own with
any featherweight or lightweight IN
the world"

BROWNS POUND
S0x HARD And
Win final, It's
Four Twfrlers Are Unable to Stop
the Onslaught of Pennant Con-
tending FASTENERS.

Chicago, July 2S.-Four White
Sex pitchers were helpless against
the st. Louis Browns in the final
game of the series yesterday at
Comiskey park, and the Mound
City crew won, IL to 5, thus get
ting an even break in the four
games and remaining a pennant
contender.
Claude Williams, Grover Low
dermilk, Dave Danforth and Little
Dick Kerr each had whirl at the
slab job, and each was maltreated
by the Browns, who piled up IA
hits for a total of 20 bases. That
many swats with four walks and a
couple Of costly errors by the Sox
made it an easy victory for the in
vaders.
The only satisfaction for Glea-
sons headIiners was in knocking
Carl WeiIman off the slab in a
romping fourth inning rally for
four runs that tied the score at
five apiece. Allan Sothoron came
to Weilman's rescue and stopped
any further romping by the south
siders
On the other hand, the Browns
just kept romping most of the aft
ernoon. Immediately after the Sox
tied the count the enemy launched
a vicious assault for five runs, and
it couldn't be anything else but a
romp after that.
Gleason hoped for success when
he sent Williams to the rubber.
Claude had been beaned by bat
ted ball two days previous in the
second inning and declared he was
fit to fight again yesterday. Wheth-
er or not he was At. he wasn't able
to stop the Browns and after three
rounds was yanked. The enemy
had scored four times.
LOWdermilk, who was next, was
wild. He was on the verge of Civ
ing a pass to everybody in the ball
park, so he was yanked, and DAN
forth tried his luck. The Browns
began hitting all of Dawes curves
for safe blows. so he had to be
yanked, and Kerr came in and
stopped the riot, though not until
more damage had been done. The

Brooklyn, July 28.-Luderus' pat
ting featured Philadelphia victory
over Brooklyn yesterday by 4 10 2.
His triple and two doubles &C
counted for three Quaker TALES.
Brooklyn was unable TO score after

home run followed Olson's single.
INDIANS TRIMMED AGAIN
Cleveland. o., July 28.-Detrolt
made It three out OF four from
Cleveland by winning 2 to 1. BolanQ
,pItched and won his second gamsb0f
the series, holding Cleveland TO
four hits. Johnson scored Cleve-
lands run on his triple and oNeil's
sacrifice.
Detroit did not count until the
seventh, when HeilmRn scored on
his single, Shorten's sacrifice and
Jones double, and the winning run
went over in the ninth on Co5b's
single, Veach's sacrifice and
Shorten's single.
Chapman led of for Cleveland In
the ninth with a double and went to
third on Speakers sacrifice, but was
left when Smith popped out and
Gardner grounded to Hellman.

ALEX ON MOUND,
CARDS BLANKED
BY CUBS, 4 TO 0
Big Pitcher TwirIs In Old Time
Form and Allows Only Five
Scattered Hits.

st. Louis, July 28.-Sergeant
Grover Cleveland Alexander shut
out the Cardinals yesterday and
the Cubs batted Tuero hard enough
TO cop the third game Of the set by
a score of to 0. Two other Car
dinal hurlers worked against
Alexander and kept the count from
increasing, but their toll was
wasted.
So good was Alexander that only
five scattered hits we're made oil
him, and three of them did not
pass the infelders. Another was
crooked bounder which neGIy
beaned Merkle, who was all set fox
IT, DR.. Lavan. ex-U. S. n, made
the only real hit of the sergeant
and that was a double in the
eighth. Lavan was the only Card
who reached second base.
The Cubs batted Tuero to thu
woods with one out in the hfth
frame. after registering four runs
of his stuff. Sherdel shut out tho
Cubs until he was derricked for
the usual hitless pincher In the
eighth, and Ames worked the last
chapter without damage.
The Cubs lineup was slightly
shaken up because OF an injury
which kept Pick out Of harness.
Magee filled in at second, and that
let Paskert resume center fielding.
Flack gave his mates a good
lead by opening on Tuero with
clean single. Hollocher slammed
into a double play and wrecked thP
chance. Magee popped out. 3ne
next Cub who reached hrst gDasa
was Alexander, after two were
out in the third round. He worked
his rival for a pass. Flack whaled
a long drive against the wind into
the right field stand and chased
Aleck home ahead OF him. Hol-
locher rolled out.
The first Cardinal who reached
Merkletown was Tuero after twO
were out in the third. Alexander
courteously passed his slab oppon-
ent, then retired Smith. Tuero
made the Cubs look sad in tho
fourth, striking out Magee nd
Paskert and getting rid OF Merkle
on a hunted fly. Score:

WALL STREET PUBLISHERS
VISITING IN ALASKA

That women can make their place
and name in the world-even in the
financial world-something which has
always been very vague and mys-
terious to women-is the belief of
Mrs. r. D. Wychoff of New York
who, with her husband, is spending
q few days in Juneau.
Mr.. and Mrs. Wychoff are owners
of the Wall Street Magazine, the
largest financial paper published.
Mrs. Wychoff, proving that her be-
lief in women is not idle, is business
manager and secretary and treasurer
of their company-the only woman
to occupy such position on a finan-
cia1 paper in the country.
Zone of the things our paper
wishes to do is to make people,
young men especially, realize the
value of a study Of finance" Mrs.
Wychoff remarked. Gust now it is
one of the important things before
the country. With knowledge OF
finance comes the ability to make
proper investments, and if one makes
proper investments during his life
