Entries for Penn RELAYS
Will Close To-day

Entries for Pennsylvania's relay
carnival close to-day. Generally en-
tries for meets close a week prior TO
the games, but because Of the immense
list it is necessary to have the entries
close three days earlier for> the carni-
val. Many entries are already in.
Yale's final entries state that the dis
tance medley and the two.milc relay
teams Will be chosen from the follow
ing men: Waterman Fisher, Dudley,
Reed, Prizer, Hetfelfnger and Coke.
Waterman, Hegelfnger and Dudley are
known to be fast half -milers. Prizer is
the old Penn Charter boy who ran so
we'll for his school three years ago.
In the special events Yale has en-
tered T. P. Heffelhnger in the hurdles,
Ford in the pole vault, Landon in the
high jump and Hammil in the shot
put. All of these men have good rec
ords for their events Missouri Uni
versity's entries for the sprint medley
and the onemile relay championship
indicate that they viii have to be
watched. Sylvester, Edwards, Brownlee
and Mlnton will represent them in both
events. with Barlow and Parker as
alernates.

Loughip at very close to their best
to defeat the little man from the Far
East. Although he won high place
IN American lawn tennis during his
flrst year IN this country, kumagae was
not satisfied with his game, apparent
ly, for when ne returned to the United
States last summer he had started
to learn the net attack, and the results
were not encouraging.
The Japanese seemed to be midway
between two points. His back-court
game had lost much of it's former
was not yet sufficiently developed to
be reliable weapon in his hands. Men
who would not have been able to stand
before kumagae in 1915 were winning
from him in 1918. His game was
neither fish nor fowl; he belonged to
neither school, back-court nor net.
Japanese Real Contender
have been proceeding on the sup
position that Kumagae has regained
his 1916 form; that he has gone back
to the original game from deep court
that made him so dangerous con
tender against our leading PLAYERS
three years ago. 1t is not difficult TO
believe that the japanese, under such
conditions, would be more than match
for the Yonkers youth, who has no.
yet gained his full physical strength.
There is another possibility. though
remote one, that Kumagae has final
ly mastered the American style of play
sufficiently well to cope successfully
with our leading men.
Now let us consider the other pos
sibility, that Richards was playing
below his real form when he met Kun
agae at Pinehurst. Such thing would
not be surprising, when we take into
account the amount of tournament
play the youth had been engaging in
prior TO his trip to Pinehurst. There
were ten days of competition in Phila-
delphia, several exhibition matches fol-
lowing that, and then the long grind OF
the national indoor championship, in
both singles and doubles, at the 7th
Regiment Armory
This might we'll be strain on a
boy of Richards's slight physique.
enough at least to take the edge off
his game and place him on the verge
of staleness. | cannot imagine Kun
agae, as l saw him play at Philadelphia,
defeating the Richards who won the
national indoor title two weeks ago.
The fact remains, however, that
Kumagae won at Pinehurst, and in re-
markably easy fashion judging by the
scores OF the two sets. Nothing should
be taken away from the Japanese in
the way of credit Beyond a doubt, he
was the better player of the two on
that day, and the world loves a win
ner.

McCraw Teams Errors
Also Aid in Bringing
Disaster to New York

PETERSBURG, Va, April 15.--The
Washington Senators defeated the
Giants here this afternoon by score
of 10 to 8. A few glaring errors helped
to swell the Washington total. Four
runs were gathered by the Senators
through mishaps and errors Of judg-
ment. John McGraw declared "bone"
was very evident.
Barnes started in the box for the
Giants, and in the first frame was
bumped for three hits and as many
runs. Sam Rice, who played left field
for the Senators, lived here one time.
so his neighbors considered it proper
to present him with a travelling bag.
Whether this was for Sam to keep on
going or not we don't know. Anyway.
he slammed Barnes for a triple and
brought two home.
The Senator'S big inning was the
ninth: Schupp, who pitched the last
four innings, didn't allow hit up to
this frame. He wobbled slightly in
this period, however. for Davis solved
him for double Then Agnew got a
walk Thompson forced Davis through
brilliant play by Chase. Foster got
a free trip. and the bags were jammed.
Milan lifted beautiful little fly,
which Smith and Schupp gazed at ad-
miringly.
Chase rushed in to snare it, but the
ball just bounced from his mitt, and
ne kicked it over the third base line.
The trio Of gentlemen on the bases
tell over one another scoring. Nc
Graw blamed the mishap on Schupp.
Mac should know, and from the stand
it appeared Schupp only had to put
out his hands to grab the ball.
The Senators outhit the Giants II
to 10 and did their swatting at the
proper moment. KaufP had few good
chances, but Benny hasn't got his bat
ting eye properly focused.

The reports last week from Pine.
hurst, N. c., telling US that Vincent
Richards, national indoor champion
was defeated in straight sets at 6-3
6-2, by Ichiya Kumagae, of Japan, in
the semi-final round of the annual
North and South championship lawn
tennis tournament, leave us something
to puzzle over
Not having been present when this
match was played, | have no wav of
knowing by just what methods or under
what circumstances Kumagae achieved
his victory. Certainly, to those Of us
who watched the sixteen-year- boy
from the University Heights Tennis
Club humble the sturdy Japanese in the
ment in Philadelphia, the Pinehurst
result must come as a distinct surprise.
But If human nature is tickle. why
not lawn tennis? Do not let US forget
that defeat comes to the greatest of
tennis players, and sometimes when we
are least expecting it. Maurice Nc

matches at Forest Hills in 1914, PLAYED

Ten days or two weeks later, facing
Mclaughlin in the final round Of the
NATIONAL championship singles, on the
famous turf of the Casino court, at
Newport, Williams won the national
title. vanquishing the great Comet" in
one of the most spectacular battles of
the courts ever fought in this country.
Judging solely by the scores of the
kumagae- Richards match, it seems evil
dent that either one of two things
must have happened. Richards was
either quite a bit below the form ne
showed at Philadelphia and in the ma
tional indoor tournament, or humagae
was the kumagae who first startled
America in 1916 by winning half a
dozen big tournaments, defeating Will
lam M. Johnston at Newport and gain
ing the No. position IN the national
ranking list.
In those days Kumagae, fresh from
Japan, had nothing but a back-court
game to pit against the net playing,
volleying game of the American school
But it was remarkable back court
game, strengthened by the most won
derful accuracy of placement and the
most tireless court covering seen on
our courts in a span of years.

Hope for Bout
Promoter Not Ready to

By Fred Hawthorne

THE fight for the worlds heavy

lard and Jack Dempsey, on July 4, will

who is promoting the bout, announced
this Yesterday. but at the same time he
refused to be any more definite, saying
Re would not be ready to name the
sctusl site until the early part Of next
week, probably.
"The money is here in the East" de-
,lared Rickard. travel facilities, pop
ulation. interest, everything, make it
The logical site. And l think that
twelve rounds are enough. There will
be Knockout before the twelfth
round bell rings
That was practically all the infor-
nation Rickard would give out yester-
day. but it may mean lot to New
Workers. Boston, Baltimore and Provi-
dence are the only cities in the East
that allow twelve-round bouts, if we
remember correctly, and it hardly
seems likely that Rickard is relying
on big enough gate" in these cities

promoting the contest.
The boxing bill introduced by Sena-
tor Walker at Albany recently speci-
fces twelve-round bouts in this state.
and it seems almost certain to pass
and come up to Governor Smith for
his signature. 1t is believed the Gov
ernor will make the bill law, al
though it would not become operative
>until July /, three days before the big
bout is to be fought.
1t may be that Tex has positive in
formation to the effect that the bill
will pass, and that he has made ar
rangements TO procure his license and
build his arena already, SO that only
the formaltes will be left to handle
after boxing is legalized in New York
Even if there was not a knockout when
Jess and Jack clashed. the Walker bill
allows a referees decision, so a def
mite result would be arrived at in any
circumstances.
While it may thus be seen that New
York lies within the range Of posi-
bilties as site for the bout, Rickard
may have his mind set on another
place. We must all remain in the dark
until Tex speaks.

Yale Confines Work
To a Mere Paddle

DERBY, Conn, April 15.-Confining
their rowing to a paddle over the
course, the Yale first and second crews
were to-day given the lightest day
work in weeks. They have been driven
hard recently and are not likely to
again attempt the racing distance un-
der the watch before they race with
the University Of Pennsylvania first
and second varsity cights Saturday.
DR.. Abbott said tonight that he ex-
poets to make no more changes in
either crews. To-day's practice was
rowed at sunset, following heavy show
crs, and ideally smooth water allowed
the cleanest workmanship shown by
the craWS recently.
