of our municipal affairs for the next four years
depends in no small degree upon the results of

If the city wants to assure itself of capable

get this result is when the men are nominated

Yankees Lose to
 British Golfers
Last Chance of Winning Scotch Tourney Goes With Women's
 Defeat

Turnberry, Scotland, June B. Americas chances to take honors in the British women's open golf cham pionship were swept away today when Miss Sara Fownes, of Pitts burgh, the last of the four United States entrants to reach the third round of play, was defeated and elim- mated by Mrs. Cautley, of Thanet, former champion of Kent, by 6 up and I to play.
 The elimination of Miss Fowncs was a sad blow to the Americans, following as it did the defeat of Mrs R. H. Barlow of Philadelphia; Miss Edith Cummings of Chicago, and Mrs. .. F. Feltner of South Shore, L. 1. The quartet tried bravely to hang on, but their play was so loose they were unable to overcome early advantages gained by their oppon- entS.
 Mrs. Barlow, on whom most of Americas hQpes were placed, because of her brilliant playing in the first and second rounds, was no match for Miss Joyce Wethered, of Worples- don. She was defeated by 5 up and 4 to play

LevinskysHas Met Both
 Dempsey and Carpenter
Bridgeport Fighter Says One Who Gets in First Wallop Will Win Big Bout on July 2.

Battling Levinsky of Bridgeport, former title holder of the light heavy weights, is the only boxer who has met both Jack Dempsey and Georges Carpenter.
 His opinion of the pair who will meet July , for the worlds champion ship ought to be worth something.
 The one who gets the first wallop across will Win," the battler said. ''Dcmpsey knocked me out in three rounds and it took Carpenter four rounds to do it, but that doesn't mean that Dempsey can hit harder. He got his opening first, that's all.
 "Carpentier can hit just as hard as Dempsey and he carries a knockout punch in both hands.

 STAGE COMEBACK
 IN SCULL RACE
Veteran Oarsmen Thrill Big Crowds on Harlem River in Great
 Match.

Jack Kelly, Of Philadelphia, cham pion single sculer, and his cousin, Paul Costello, proved to thousands who lined the banks of the Harlem river that they have lost none of the sculling ability which last year brought them to the fore in rowing.
 The Nesper pair performed bril- liantly in two events of the annual Memorial Day regatta, winning the senior double sCulls race and virtu- ally driving the Vesper quadruple scull craft to victory over its closest rival, the New York Athletic Club
 No time was recorded for the pair in the senior doubles, but it was easily the best rowing of the long program. Weather conditions were ideal

ishing blow is a short jab that pounds the very life and all the energy out of an opponent. l know 1t because 1 felt 1t from the very first round. Dempsey is the best fighter 1 ever met.
 "Carpentier's style is that of a box CT. He IS equally as fast as the cham pion and, although he is not as rugged and strong as Dempsey, his better boxing ability offsets the point and in addition he has terrific punch.
 "Carpenticr Is also a sharpshooter. He hits right to any point he desires, usually a vital spot, and he has un- erring aim. He strikes so fast it is all most impossible to see the blows. His punch is hard and snappy.
 If Dempsey fights his usual fight it is a question, however, if Carpen- tier will be able to box. Fighting close, it is impossible to get guard against Dempsey's short body punch es. He drives into the midsection and then shifts to the jaw.
 "Dempsey also has more endurance than he is generally credited with He Is rated as fast four-round fighter, but l know that he can go I2 rounds at top speed if he is in good condition. It will be close, 1t won't be a walk-aWay for Dempsey, by any means"

 Cheer Her Wildly.

St. Cloud, June 3.-All the Amer jeans engaged in the worlds hard court tennis championship matches here yesterday were victorious over their opponents.

 William T. Tilden of Philadelphia, worlds grass court champion, had an easy day and was never extended. lie was tired after the exceedingly trying match in the mems doubles yesterday, which Tilden characterized as one Ot the hardest in which he had ever en- gagged.
 The playing of Mrs. Molla Blur stedt Mallory, American women $ single champion, was a revelation to the spectators who have been attend ing the matches regularly since the tournament commenced and have watched her winning with great dlttl- cultv over players classed as second raters. When she defeated Mme. Vaussard of France with consummate ease she showed the best tennis eX- hibited by a woman during the tour. nament with the exception ot that ot Mme. Lenglen, the French champion. She not only drove from the base line with her customary speed, but showed improved form on shots inside her service line and in volleying. :,
 Tilden declared he was very tired after the hard doubles of Tuesday He said the match was one in which he did the most running except when he met William M Johnston of Cali fornia in the tennis finals in the United States last year.

Milton Wins Speedway
 Classic in Furious Race
American Driver Bolts Around In- dianapolis Course Like Lightning Flash

Indianapolis, June 3-Tommy Mil ton, world champion speed racer, piloted an American car to the finish line first in the ninth renewal of the international racing classic, the 5oo-
 mile dash around the Indianapolis speedway on Memorial Day.
 Milton's victory came through a beautifully driven race which was won after Ralph De Palma, popular favor ite for the victory, had set such terrific pace during the first 25o miles that all of the foreign made cars, in cluding his own, were forced from the track through mechanical troubles or minor accidents
 Of the 23 entrants, only eight com Pleted the 500 miles and seven Of these were American made machines. Ralph Mulford, driving another American-built machine, was award ed ninth position without finishing after all the others had dropped by the way side.
 Milton established new track rec ord for cars of not more than I82 cubic inches piston displacement by completing the 500 miles in , hours, B. minutes and 44o5 seconds for an average of 8o62 miles per hour The fastest time ever made in the speed way races was but 20 hundredths of a mile faster per hour, this mark being made by De Palma in 1915.
 The victory brought Milton nearly S36,ooo in prize money, $2oooo for first place, Sc, 200 in lap prizes and the balance in special prizes given by accessory companies.
 Less than four minutes behind Mil lO fought bitter race with De Palma in the early hours and who held sec ond position most of the way. De Palma had won SIo,ooo in lap prizes previous to being forced out
 The terrific pace set by De Palma, which established new track records up to the first 100 miles, was given by experts as the reason for so many cars being forced out Accidents were few and none were serious, but car after car fell by the wayside with
 mechanical trouble which could not be remedied.
 Aside from Milton, the work of young Ellingboe attracted consider able attention. The Crookston, Minn., pilot, driving on a brick track for the til forced out i'll the 10th lap Later he replaced Percy Ford and brought the latter's car from 10th position to third at the finish He was nine laps behind the winner. The car driven by him was rebuilt from the one in which Gaston Chevrolet won last years race and later was killed in while driving on the Pacific coast.
 The other fnishers crossed the line in the following order:
 Jimmy Murphy (replaced Eddie Miller), fourth; Ora Halbe, fifth; Joe Boyer (replaced Guyot), sixth; Ira Vail, seventh; Bennie Hill, eighth; Ralph Mulford, ninth. Halbe's Eng llsh-built car was the only foreign machine to finish.

JACK QUINN CLAIMS
 "SPITTER" IS FAIR
Pitchers Using Moist Ball Have
 Not Been InvincibIe.
Yankee HurIer Decries Abolishment of Spit Ball and Says Arguments Against 1t Are Not Sound
 Walsh Was Effective.

"The spit ball." declares Jack Quinn stoutly, Ifs no more a freak delivery than the curve ball" The Yankee pitcher, an exponent of the spit ball, soon to be extinct, seems to be sincere in his belief that it is all right. He decries it's abolishment and holds that there is no good objec- tion to it.
 Tt is no more freak delivery than the curve ball. he repeated, mot a bit more. It never hurt anybody, and no spit ball ever was invincible. Those NIe the objections raised against it by the baseball people, and not one of the arguments is sound.
 "There never was an invincible spit ball pitcher never one to threaten the extermination of the hitter, which bugaboo was raised against the spit ball pitcher. The nearest to tnvinci- ble we ever had was Ed Walsh. but

not one of the other pitchers of that threatening to the hitter's chances of making a good batting average"
 Few will disagree With Quinn that Walsh was the most effective of all pitchers who used the saliva ball. Next to him the one who knew the anybody else and who came nearer to making it scientifically effective was Jack ChesbrO. He and Walsh were master of it, though there may be those who maintain that COveles- kie is almost, if not quite, as expert with 1t as ChesbrO.
 Burleigh Grimes also ranks high as to skill with the wet fling, but he uses it a great deal, whereas Dick Rudolph and the disgraced CicOtte were quite as skillful with it, but didn't employ it as much. They employed it more in conjunction with other deliveries. Urban ShOcker has as puzzling a spit ball as there is at present, one with as deceptive quirks as Chesbro's, ball players say, but he bluffs a good deal with it. He uses a curve ball often when making the motions of the moist ball. and uses the two as part of eff fective strategy. Quinn is using the curve ball himself some, nowadays. When his spitball is operating to suit. Bill Doak is effective, but he is uncer- tain.
