Geanings From Sportdom.
By Walter Camp

Today's tennis is too fast for delibera-
ton Action must be intuitive.
In the sports Of today the caution of
age falls before the courage of youth.
Foot ball fields throughout the coun-
try are going to be packed with players
from the middle of September until the
season closes. Early indications also
are that the quality played will be high.
Those who commended that Gerald Pat
terson, the Australian tennis star. would
not be dangerous to our best men should
have seen him in his match with Will
liam Johnston. Patterson has wonderful
endurance, and If he ever gets back
hand control he Is without question the
logical successor Of the late Anthony
Wilding His forehand shots. his half
yolleys of low returns that just skim the
net and his smashing are exceptional.
F'risch, the former foot ball and base
ball star at Fordham, is adding to his
laurels in his play at second base for
the New York Giants. Frisch has well
earned for himself the sobriquet of the
'Fordham fash and his speed, quick
ness of thought and general covering Of
his position has made him very popular
with the fans. He is coming to the
front more rapidly in his first season

Vance Mccormick, a man who has

JOHNSON T0FACE
C|C0TTE IN OPENER
First Meeting of Stars in
Three Years Should Mean
Great Battle.
BY DENMAN THOMPSON.

Kid Gleason and his prospective
American League champions will be
the guests of the Nationals for three
days, starting this afternoon. The
Chicago team now enjoys a lead of
seven and one-half games over the
Indians. who are in second place; half
game ahead of the Tigers, and with
only seventeen games remaining to
be played nothing short of train
wreck can prevent it from coping.
The opener today will find Cicotte,
the veteran star of the White Sox
hurlers, opposed to Johnson. Walter
was saved out of the New York series
for the express purpose of working
him against the Gleasonites. When
last in Chicago johnson was unable
to work because of illness and in an
swer to the yelps emanating from
Detroit. Manager Griffith promised to
send his ace against the Sox here
and hold him out of the Tiger series.
Johnson has seen no toll since last
Thursday and is on edge.
BY a strange twist of events John
son has not pitched against Cicotte
in the last three campaigns. Jim
Shaw usually getting the assignment
against the shine ball artist. Shaw s
success against the chunky Chicagoan
has been attributed to the latter's
alleged preparation of the ball. Jim's
great speed making him effective to
a degree. On this theory Johnson
should prove hard to solve today.
Manager Gleason did not accom-
pany his team to Washington. He
stopped over in Philadelphia to con-
fer with Otto Knabe, his partner in
business there, but planned to get
here in time for the battle. We have
it on the authority of Harry Nelly.
author of "One Dozen Shorts and
other best sellers. that the Pale Hose
are suffering from no accidents, ILL
nesses or ailments and are in fine
spirits.
Manager Griffith today was disin-
c1ined to talk about his visit to New
York yesterday. He said he made
an affidavit for use in the Mays case
in which he recounted the telephone
talk he had with Manager Barrow
of Boston shortly after the pitcher
left the Red Sox, but declined to
comment further.
Babe Ruth's twenty-sixth home run
of the season, maue off Herb Thor
mahlen at the Polo Grounds yester-
day. set new record for the major
leagues. The claim has been made
that Ed Williamson of the Chicago
Cubs banged out twentyseven cir
cult swats in 1883 or 1884. but there
and Ruth's mark will be accepted as
constituting a record. At the time
Williamson was hitting them far and
wide no data on extra base hits were
kept, according to John Heydler.
president of the National League, who
is quoted as saying:
Amy claim that Williamson made
twenty-seyen home runs in 1884 is
after all nothing but claim. as we
have no official data to. support that
contention. If those who are check
ing up the reports of the games find
that Williamson really did make
twenty-seven home runs the record
at best would be very much unoffi-
cial."
