RICHARDS IS BEATEN
William M. Johnston Puts Yonkers Boy Out of Running for Place on Davis Cup Team.

Seabroght, N. J., Aug. 12.-Vincent Richards chances of making the American Davis cup team were snuff ed out completely by the masterful game of William M. Johnston on the Seabright courts yesterday. Over whelmed by the power and brilliance of the former national champions at- tack, the Yonkers youth, who three weeks ago had astonished the tennis world with a triumph over William T. Tilden, 2d, went down to decisive defeat, his worst since he reached the ranks of the top notchers. Scores do not always reflect accurately the story of a ternis match, but in this instance the final tally of 6-2, 6-2, 6-1 does.

ceding at that point. The water is
lower on both the Ockerson and Saiz

is felt because of the rise.
