THE WHOLE MAN" THEME
 OF DIR. MACSPORRAN

At the First Presbyterian church yes- terday morning, Dr. John A. MacSpor- ran spoke on "The Whole Man" as H. lrstrated in the Gospel of St. John when Jesus healed the impotent man at the pool of Bethsada. pr, MacSporran said in part;
 We are all artists in a way. We cam not look with satisfaction upon frag- ments. They are ugly, annoying.
 'I wonder if that is why we find it hard to love one another, to be patient and sympathetic when we have certain sides of our natures that are maimed and halt. That may be why there is discord in homes, jealousy and strife in society, coldness in churches We are strong on one side, weak on another, mere fractions of whole men and women.
 Here is where our religion comes in {; where the gospel finds us. We see our Saviour and cry, Behold the Man human nature in fullness and perfection. The wonder of Jesus is the balance, the sanity, the harmony of His character. And He says, I live that you might have life. And again Come to Me It is His presence that makes us hatq to be fractions of our true selves. It Is the. vision of the Kingdom He came to establish on earth which makes us painfully conscious of what is lacking in the men and women of our time It is the music of His voice echoing in our souls that makes us aware of the discord.
 Jesus looked one day at the human drftwood gathered at the pool of Beth sada. He saw the poor fellow who had only been part of a man for 90 years The cripple could not live even his wretched existence without the glimpse of hope that gave the chance of cure And yet-down in his heart-he knew he was only pretending that his life could be endurable. One day stranger looked into the tired eyes and immediately felt new strength flowing into his veins. He was told to Arise and walk and straightway the man was made whole :
 That is the opportunity that comes to us. Our souls are like the Bethsada pool. The waters are placid and stag nant. Then some day spring is re- leased and new feelings, new visions, new energies arise to the surface and we hear wonderfully appealing voice saying 'Wouldst thou be made whole?' Do you want to develop the higher, liner side of your nature? Do yoar want to be redeemed from your self ishness and pride and indolence and be- come an all-round man-be whole?
 We all know these times co ne in our lives--and then go-and we allow the 'NeSi " pSSohic. StdSHdHt dSdll. IneX are the psychological moments in our souls history. The waters are troubles by the finger of God and then become still again.
 Why are so many maimed and halt so many fragments in our churches: why do they come to Bethsada at all? Isn't their presence there confession of their need?
 Jesus asks, Are you willing to be made wholeY We hear the amazing mes sage, the offer of healing to the per plexed and heavy laden. We are only a part of what we might be-whole- hearted, whole-souled, whole-minded. complete by the power of His redeeming love-

FRISCO PLAYER
LOSES CHANCES
IN FOUR SETS
Johnston Stages Spectacular
Comeback, But Steadiness
Of Opponent Beats Him

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. IA. = For
the second time in two years, Will
liam Tilden ii, of Philadelphia, des-
troyed all chance of William M. john
ston of San Francisco, securing per-
manent possession of the champion
ship tennis singles cup by defeating
him today, 4-6, rs, GA, 6-3, in the
fourth round of the tournament. John
stone, titular winner in 1915 and 1919
staged a spectacular comeback but as
at Forest Hills, N. Y, last September
il was Tilden who defeated his plan
to secure the final leg on the trophy.
A year ago Tilden won from Johnston
in the final round, 81, 1-6, TO, 81, 6-3.
Today he erased the Californian in a
four set match.
Johnston was not the only former
title holder to lose, however, for R.
Norris Williams ii, of Boston, cham
pion in 1914, and 1916, also was elm
mated by ]. o. Anderson, Australia
sian Davis Cup player, 6-3, 6-3, 2-6, As.
GA. Other survivors of the fourth
round include Wallace F. Johnson of
Philadelphia. Francis T. Hunter of
New York, F. Gordon Lowe of Eng
land, Willis E. Davis and Robert G..
Kinsey of San Francisco.
Tilden's victory makes the final
round schedule for Saturday rather
an ante-climax. The holder of both
the American and English titles is
conceded to be the class of the re-
naming field and it would be an as
founding reversal and upset if he was
defeated during the next three days
of play.
The Californian gave all he had in
the way of super-tennis in his attempt
to defeat Tilden and it was only the
extra steadiness and flexibility of the
victor's game that spelled the mar
gin between victory and defeat. Til
den even in the face of Johnston's
hardest bombardment, change of pace
and perfect examples of technique and
strategy, matched skill and brain with
Johnston and fully held his own. Add
ed to this, he had greater physical en-
durance and court covering ability.

DANNY FRUSH is EXPECTED TO
GIVE KILBANE ONE OF HARDEST
FIGHTS, IN SATURDAYS MATCH

He is more versatile on both attack
and defense, he can shit quickly and
hit at the very completion of shit.
He is a better feinter than Frush,
and a snapper fighter. He has the
better head; in fact, he's credited
with being the quickest thinker in
the ring. -rr n-t.a
Up to Johnny
Who will win?
The answer depends entirely on
Kilbane's internal condition.
If his spark plugs are fouled, he
may have trouble staying the limit.
1t ought to be comparatively short
fight if Kilbane is the man he used
to be, for the champion will be In
splendid condition upon entering the
ring.
Ii Kilbane has lost his stamina, the
bout will last longer andSthe further
it goes the better are Frush's
chances.
Frush is said to be planning to get
Kilbane after the sixth round when
the champion begins to tire.
Kilbane, on the other hand de-
clares he will wade right in while
the echo of the first bell is yet to be
heard, and make short work of the
Limehouse Knight.
It'll be youth vs. experience. But
wether youth will be served when
the old master still retains his cum
ming remains to be seen.
To Weigh Same
Frush will be called upon to weigh
126 at ringside. Kilbane doesn't have
to make the weight, but he won't
weigh any more than Frush.
Johnny's hands are in good shape,
as recent X-ray proved. He is not
worrying about them now and con-
sequently, is slamming them hard in
training.
He will take every chance with his
dukes on the 18th, because he has
sixty thousand dollars at stake and if
he wins the fight, he can get goodly
purses for boxing Andy CLANCY, Sam
my Sieger, Charley Beecher and Billy
DeFoe.

BY ROY GROVE

Danny Frush, Baltimore feather
weight, who boxes Johnny Knbane,
Sept. II, for the featherweight title,
is a fighter who tends strictly to his
knitting. e.,
He is not a scintillating performer
not a master, from the standpoint
of trickery-but he has two good
hands, two good, fast legs, and two
good, sharp eyes, all of which he uses
TO full advantage.
Once a fight starts, Frush is on the
job until the last gong, attacking con-
tinually and rarely giving ground.
Frush Is "Crowder"
He is of the crowd;ng type of
fighter.
Crowding in, he makes the other fell
low punch, even if he doesn't punch
himself and the result is constant and
continuous action.
Frush's style is almost an exact
replica of Benny Leonard's. There is
nothing fancy about him, but what he
does he does well and thoroughly.
Frush is good hitter. He isn't a
Ketchel or a Leonard, but a snappy
cutting puncher who can drop an OPP
ponent with one blow.
He has the knack of timing his
blows perfectly and this makes them
most effective. He has scored IS
lnockouts in five years, while Kill
bane's record is % in Is years.
kilbane's Plan
Kilbane will try to beat Frush with
left hand, using straight jabs and
hooks to both the head and body.
If Johnny can dizzy the contender,
or place him in position through his
left leads for the famous Kilbane
right cross to go shooting in, he
links thatll be about enough. For
the champ counts on that to make
Frush take rank with the others of
the valiant aspirants who have triad
and failed.
Kilbane is much the better boxer
of the two in that he has more of the
real stuff"
