McGraw Picked Up
 Pitcher Who's Star
 of Southern League

St Louis, Aug. z0.-There are some good looking young pitchers in the Southern league this year. Crews of Birmingham, Boone of At lanta, Stone of Little Rock, Canavan of Memphis and Noel of Chattanoo- ga Noel has been going particularly well and promises to be of much value to Sammy Strang Nicklin as Rube Marshall, and the latter is one of the best pitchers in the league.
 Noel came to Strang in an odd manner. Strang spent a considerable period of his major league career with the New York Giants under John McGraw. When Strang assum- ed control of the Lookouts this Spring he wrote McGraw according ly and asked for aid in the shape of discards. Several days after the start of the seasoning period Straps re- ceived a wire from McGraw to the effect that he was sending him a young pitcher.
 Noel was the man. MCGraw pick ed him up in the CaroIinas on barn storming trip.
 And the strange part of 1t was re- lates Nicknn, "McGraw paid his rail- way fare, gave his expense money and wished him luck" Which is an unusual procedure on the part of a baseball magnate, McGraw or any body else.
 Now Noel. the gift pitcher" pro- mises to become one of the sensa- lions of the league.

Secure Australian
 Girl Swimmers For
 Seaside Park Meet

The United States Volunteer Life Saving Corps in conjunction with the Bridgeport Board of Recreation have succeeded in preparing a wonderful program for their water sports to be held Labor Day at Seaside park. Miss Fannie Durack and aIiss Nina Wylie, champion women swimmers of the world from Australia, will defend their titles against Miss Charlotte Boyle and Miss Ethelda Bleibtry at 500 yards, 2 distance not any of the contestants have previously partici- pated in.
 The fact that Miss Boyle and Miss Bleibtry both beat the Australian champion at Manhattan Beach Satur- day in the 40 and 100 yards races, will make this contest e battle from start to finish A 100 yard limited handicap will also be staged, where the Australians will again compete against the Americans.
 Arrangements have been completed to bring about a long sought for event. A relay race between the Philadelphia women swimmers and the New York W. s. A. There will be four on 6 team, each girl to swim 100 yards. The rivalry between these two clubs A exceedingly keen and . great race is expected.

Johnson Sold Stock Of Cleveland Club Over Bar
New York Writer Charges That Jim Dunn Bought His Holdings After Meeting in Chicago
 Cafe With Big Ban.

New York, Aug. 20 - Boisterous Ban Johnson, the Roaming Czar of the Baseball, is to appear before a referee appointed by the Supreme Court of New York Friday to answer number of questions Colonols Rup- pert and Huston. owners of the Yankees arc going to ask concern Ing the affairs of the American League.
 One of these questions will be: ''who owns stock in the Cleveland club2" It has been learned from a very close acquaintance of Charley Comiskey owner of the White Sox, who took over Charley Somers' stock in the club few years ago,
 Boisterous Ban had just returned to Chicago from a visit to Cleveland. The banks which held Somers' notes refused to extend another dollar to tho club. In fact several of the play CTS had gone South at the expense of Lee Fohl the manager.
 Comiskey and Johnson had been in session in Boisterous Bans office in the Fisher Building in Chicago. Johnson informed Comiskey that he was willing to stake the Cleveland club to the extent of s1OO,OOO If Comiskey would do likewise. But more money was needed Johnson promised the old Roman that he would within 90 days get somebody to take up the Chicago magnate's holding.
 Finally the men reached the same conclusion. It was that a cocktail would do both of them a mighty lot of good. In the Fisher Building is a
 
 Hence Johnson and Comiskey started for the wet goods emporium. On their arrival in Burns Johnson spied a contractor named Jim Dunn. Jim" asked Boisterous Ban, "how would you like to get into baseball?"
 Great" came back the contractor.
 And so would T." remarked Burns, the cafe owner.
 You both can buy stock in the Cleveland club" said Johnson.
 'T'n take S15,OOO worth" said Burns.
 Put me down for $1O.OOO,'' said the contractor.
 And thus 1t was that Jim Dunn be- came an "owner' of the Cleveland club.
 Later Johnson made Dunn the pres ident. Since then Dunn may have bought more stock, but the insiders don't believe it. And yet, for s1O 600, Dunn, the smallest "club owner in the league, has done more than any other American League magnate in trying to block the trade whereby the Yankees secured Carl Mays. At the recent meeting of the board of directors of the American Lea gle lComiskey admitted that he still holds most of his original s1OOOO0 stock in the Cleveland club, and he also de clared that it was his belief that Bois- terous Ban still owned all of his $1oO, 900 stock.
 Johnson will be forced to tell the truth on Friday. If he admits he still owns the Cleveland stock, then it's time for the American League to get rid of him. Syndicate baseball is an ugly term in baseball.

TILDEN STARS BUT U. s. BOYS
 LOSE AT TENNIS


 Boston, Aug. 20-Our girls can beat their swimmers, but our men bow to their tennis players. Australia cap tured the doubles championship of the United States yesterday at the Longwood Cricket Club, when the
 imperturbable Norman E. Brookes and the brilliant Gerald l.. Patterson defeated the former title holders.
 William T. Tilden, 2d. and Vincent
 Richards, in the challenge match, SC, '6-2, 4-6, 4-6, 6-2.
 It was one of the most thrilling five
 set battles in the history of tho
 worlds most popular game. With scarcely any one willing to couccde them an outside chance of successfully defending their title, Tilden and Rich ards went out on the grandstand court and amazed the gallery by playing | the Australians off their feet in the early games, rallying again later,
 when defeat stared them in the face, | and tying up the match by an extra ordinary display of skill and courage. | On one side of the net was the v ung-
 est first-class tennis player in the world, and on the other the greatest 1 of all the veterans, while as partners these dramatically contrasting per sonalities had two of the most spec tacular hitters the game has ever seen.
 | In fact, judged by the tennis that | he flashed yesterday, William T. Til den, 2d, may well be judged the
 worlds greatest master of the rac-
 quet, past or present. Tilden, in short,
 was on the game. and, when he is, there is no one who can be compared with him. His service yesterday af- ternoon made every other delivery and zI,~4r-
 so fast that one of them literally
 knocked the burly Patterson off his feet. His volleys were marvels of geometrical calculation, while, over head, he was very safe. Tilden's only weakness yesterday was in lobbing, and here most of his errors came close to being earned points, for he frequently missed tia base line by inches.
 To BrOokcs the Final Credit.
 But to Norman Brookes must go
 the final credit for yesterdays con- quest of Americas best All through
 the tournament he has been the rock upon which the Australian team was founded, but yesterday afternoon he was a whole team in himself His total of 20 errors in five sets is noth- ing short of extraordinary, especially as he earned eight more points than
 he lost, proving that he was by no
 means spectator in the proceedings.
 In the first set he netted only once and sent the ball out of court no nlo-,, often. He repeated this feat in the
 third set, and, in the final session, his
 record contained only one out and
 two nets. He did not serve double
 fault all the afternoon. yet contribut- ed two aces to his teams total. His
 most brilliant shots came in the pinches, and, as on Saturday, 1t was
 invariably the skill of Brookes that averted disaster.

shoe-lace. Terry in the meantime was fidgeting about and finally came over to the Danes corner and asked what the delay was. Terry put up a misera ble bout when it started.
 Willie Fitzgerald, one of the tough est lightweights ever, once scored a clean knockout over Jimmy Britt, in the second round of a go on the coast. Spider Kelly, th@ foxiest of handlers called the referees atten- ton to a clock on the wall. Look, it's stopped!" exclaimed the Spider He engaged the arbiters attention over the trifle for so long that Britt, who was on the floor at least IS seconds was saved by the gong and later won the fight.
 Some years ago Sailor Burke was regarded as one of our best middle weights. The Sailor was tough ana could hit but he wasn't exactly a student of the game. In fact he was quite dumb when it came to scientific principles. The Sailor had a crafty second who had it figured out he could guide Burke into the realms of skill by means of a number code Such and such a number meant for Burke to jab, duck, rush, etc. They had it all figured out and Burke was to become a second Jim Corbett by means of the code. The Sailor first put it to use against Willie Lewis. The thing would have worked wonder fully save that Burke forgot the code and ducked when he should have sidestepped and balled the thing up generally. He took an awful lac ing trying to fight his code battle and finally decided to rely solely on na- lures offerings.

ENGLISH OFFER OF S5O,OOO TO
 JACK BRITTON

New York, Aug. 20-Dan Morgan, manager of Jack Britton, welter- weight champion of the world, re- ceived a cablegram yesterday from George Mcdonald, an English box ing promoter, offering Britton $5,0OO and a side bet of $50, ,GO0 for a cham pionship bout with Johnny Basham, welterweight champion of Europe.
 Mcdonald says that a syndicate of British sportsmen will back Basham to that amount. The only stipulation Mcdonald makes is that Britton must defeat Mike O'Dowd in their bout at Newark tomorrow night.
 Just why Mcdonald should make Britton will still be the welterweight champion of the world whether he wins or loses his bout with O'Dowd. The latter ssthe middleweight cham pion of the world, and that is the only tile that will be at stake in tomorrow nights battle.
 Immediately upon receipt of the cablegram, Danny Morgan hustled about to get $5O,oOo backing for his man. He had no difficulty in arrang- ing for 1t. Maxey Blumenthal now in Saratoga; Billy Considine and Honest John Kelly contracted to put up Britton's end of the bet.
 In case the match goes through, the men would be boxing for a purse ot S10O, 900, the largest amount ever battled for by welterweights in the history of pugilism.

Latest Doings In Sp0rtland s5:
Will Mack Sell Perry
 To Chicago For $2O, ,OOO
Athletics Best Pitcher Has Jumped Club and Several American League Teams Are
 Bidding High For Him,

Will Connie Mack, the long. lean leader of the Philadelphia Athletics, sell Pitcher s.ott Perry now that the pitcher has deserted the club? That question Is creating quite a stir in American League circles ipasmuch as the Chicago White Sox, the New York Americans and the Boston Red Sox are all willing to pay high for the finger It Is said that Owner Comiskey of Chicago will give S2O,- 900 for Perry any time Mack says the word.
 Perry jumped the Athletics a few days ago and is pitching for a semi pro club in Franklin, Pa. It IS re ported that he quit the Athletics be- cause he was dissatisfied with his salary. He claims he was drawing S2,9O0 a year, which ts very poor for a twirler of his ability.
 Perry was told that the White Sox would pay him S5.0Oo a year if they coud set him and of course that made him more disgruntled It will be interesting to see if President Ban Johnson of the American League does anything in Perry's case The pitcher has not been suspended by the Athletics yet and 1t is time John son took some action, if he is on the level with the remarks he made after Carl Mays jumped the Red So%. Per- haps Johnson will wait until the Yankees buy Perry and then sus- pend him.
 Joe Dugan, a New Haven boy. is another player who jumped the Ath- letics recently but he has returned. It was the fourth time the young in- fielder deserted the club
