TITLE PLAY IN
TENNIS
TOMORROW

NEW YORK, N. Y, Aug. %
Conrad B. Doyle, of Washington,
and S. Howard Vashell, of Brooklyn,
are given the honor part on the ex-
hibition court at Forest Hills, L. l.,
tomorrow afternoon when the Ma
tional Lawn Tennis Association
championship singles tournament
gets under way on the West Side
Club turf courts.
To Maurice E. Mclaughlin, of
Los Angeles, doubtless the most
popular tennis player in America, is
accorded the honor of opening the
thirty-eighth national championship.
The officials of the tournament
thought it only fitting that he
should receive this distinction in
view of the place he holds in the
tennis hall of fame. When "Mac"
steps onto No. 8 court at 1 o'clock
with Arthur Cragin, it is safe to
say that the championship enclo-
sure will hold the attention Of many
followers of the game.
The last feature match Of the day
will be on court No. at 4:3O p. m.
between Frederick B. Alexander, hero
OF many an interesting national con-
test, and Capt Gerald L Patterson, Of
Melbourne, Australia.
Heralded as the hurricane" Pat
h.
United States has shown that he must
be reckoned with in figuring the out
come Of the championship. The fact
that he and Norman L. Brookes have
just won the doubles championship
viii leave no doubt as to the possibil-
ity of the Australian invasion being
real bid for the tennis titles Of the
United States.
Plays Queer Franks.
The luck Of the draw played a queer
prank in pairing Patterson and Alex
ander. Nine years ago when AIexan-
der was in Australia with Beals c.
Wright they practiced on the court
belonging to Patterson's father.
Patterson, then a yOungster Of four
teen, acted as ball boy in their
matches; Now he faces Alexander in
his campaign for the championship
and will try TO put into effect some of
the things he learned on the down
under" side Of the world when watch
ing Alexander in action years ago.
1t was singular that two such stars
as VOsheu and Doyle should be
drawn. Doyle can probably defeat
one hundred and ten OF the players
entered. In meeting Voshell he must
raise his game to greater heights than
ever to gain the ascendency.

II yesterdays War Risk-Southern
engagement, the first Of the series, is
to be taken as a criterion, the sand
lot fans can look for the tightest race
in the history Of post-season engage
ments here. War Risk emerged a
. to victor, but there was little to
choose in the strength Of the teams.
War Risk got the breaks to be sure,
while Southern was guilty of a couple

sented the Departmental League
champions with necessary scores.
Rooney" Nernstein, Of Southern.
and Ernie Scheffer, of War Risk, en-
gagged in a pitching duel. Vernstein
was touched up for ten hits, several
coming at OpportUne times for the
War Riskcrs. He famed nine batters.
Schaffer, on the other hand, got go
ing carly and pitched his usual credit
able game. He received some wobbly
backing at times and but one of the
miscues behind him hurt.

The District Association series of
twelve games will not only nominate
a winner for the inter-city series with
the Richmond winner, but will pre-
sent a club which will be awarded

Tomorrow's game is sure to be a
nip and tuck affair as the teams will
present the strongest line-Ups pos
sible.
Navy Yard will pitch Buscher,
Humphreys, or SterzeT, with GiOvan-
netti on the receiving end. Naval
Operations will have owen, Won Her

With the Griffs' though, it is diff
ferent. There was a time when
Griffith considered himself a danger
Gus opponent for the flag, but Harold
Jantrin failed to come around after
a severe attack OF pneumonia, while
Clyde Milan was a victim of appen-
dicitis. Throwing these regulars
out OF the game for long spells in
terfered with Griff's plans consider
ably.
He has Jimmy O'Nein booked for a
shortstop trial and according to
George Sisler, Jimmy Burke, Chief
Gallia and other members of the
Browns, who saw O'Neill in action
with the Shreveport club in the
spring of 1918, Griffith has a promis-
ing yOungster.
O'NeiII is a Hitter
O'NeH, unlike brother Steve and
Jack, is a hitter of note at least, he
was when the Browns played against
him a year ago. He swings from the
right side, uses a long bat and hits
them with force. That's what Grif-
fifth needs, a good right handed hit
ter. He has Milan, MenOsky, Judge
and Rice for the left side and speed,
but cleanup hitter would fill the
bill.
In fielding O'NeeiI showed speed
and an arm of steel. Il hope the
Browns have the right dope on this
fellow commented Acting Manager
Mcbride today. with many young
ball players called by Uncle Sam last
summer there are not many phenOms
floating around"
10
his same trouble-wildness. Harry
lacked control when he was discover
ed by Griffith but Griff believed that
eventually Harper would find himself
and become another Marquard. This
has been a bad season for Harper
though. When he does not get any
batting support he pitches a whale
OF a game and loses a tough battle.
When they get him some runs,
though he goes on wild journey.
