on over a circuitous route to a point
four and half miles east Of the city,

of the paved Vimville highway as if
the prisoner being trailed had board

found pieces of wall paper plainly

used the paper in wiping their hands.
The paper is thought to have been

HOHLFELD LEADS
INDUSTRIAL RACE
Defeats Disston in Game for
First Place--Winners
Deserve Victory
SAWMAkERS QUIT LEAGUE

The Hohlfeld baseball team han
taken undisputed possession Of first
place in the Industrial Amateur League.
The hammockcrs clashed with the Diss-
ton Saw team on Saturday on the
home grounds at Broad street and AL
legheny avenue. Disston had the game
won before Il was played, but rs IN all
the other contests this season Hohlfeld
fought to the finish and came out ahead
as usual.
The winners completely outplayed the
losers and the victory was well merited.
Mackin opposed Mason on the hill ana
the former held the Tacony sluggers
TO a half dozen hits. A double by
Wambach. followed with two-bagger
by Wood in the ninth, decided the
contest.
This morning the Disston manage
ment notified Milton Hohlfeld. who Is
president of the League, that they had
decided to sever their connection with
the organization. advancing as their
reason for retiring that so few people
attended their home games that 1t was
useless to continue. They plan to
travel. There is now vacancy in the
league which will he filed by applying
to president of the Hohlfield Manu-
featuring CO., at Tenth and Allegheny
avenue. The new team will be taken
in at the regular monthly meeting to-
morrow night.
Packard Wins Again
After getting away to poor start,
losing its first three games, Packard
Motor has started on the upward trend
and its last three contests have all re-
suited in victories. The third was
gained at the expense Of Supplee- Biddle
on Saturday. 70. The Gimbcl team
also added another to the right side
of the ledger. Schwartz pitched beau
tiful ball, holding Harrison Safety
Boiler to four hits. The Gimbel score
was 3 to 1. WINS Cake dropped a
slugging match to Thornton-Fu
1910.
Liggett & Myers continues to blaze
the trail in the Philadelphia Manu-
facturers' League and downed tho
Hatch Motion Co.. a newcomer in the
Manogue circuit, 6 to ]. Liggett has
lost but one game all season. e. -:
Budd ran up the seasons record OF
30 to on G. W. Young, and In so
doing advanced into second place.
The league race Is decidedly inter
esting with De Frain Sand, Philadel-
phia Storage Battery and Western
Union all tied for third place. having
won four and lost two. Commercial
Truck has at last hit Its stride as is
evident by the II to 2 score made
against Oldsmobile.
DoylestOwn Loses
Doylestown dropped a game In the
Montgomery County League to Lans-
dale, 8 to 0. and Chestnut Hill was
beaten by Amber. The defeat of the
Killers was a surprise. It robbed them
of chance of tying Doylestown for
the lead. The Bennis clan went to
pieces after Joe Byrne. their third base
man, had finger injured. In one in
ming, the third Amber got five runs,
all on errors.
Glensidc still keeps clean slate in
the Suburban circuit with seven
straight to its credit. Wayne has a
game advantage in the Main Line
League and Rockdale and Clifton are
tied for first place in the Delaware
County circuit.

CORBETT STOPPED
BY JEFF IN EFFORT
TO REGAIN CROWN

Jim Corbett's ambition continued to
function long after Bob Fitzsimmons
took the heavyweight championship
away from him. His desire to regain
the lost laurels got him into pecks Of
trouble, the trouble being furnished by
James J. Jeffries.
Jefries was the champion and
Corbett,. who had relinquished the honor
six and half years before, bucked
up against the battling blacksmith
with heavy odds against him.
IL was one sided fight, staged In
Mechanics Pavilion at San francisco
on August ii. 1903. Jefferies with his
DO pounds subdued his 1855 pound ad d.
versary in the tenth round, the chal-
llenger's seconds throwing the sponge
into the ring while their hero was being
counted out.
lt was not the first time Corbett had
bowed before Jeffries. In the fourth
round he was toppled to the floor under
an onslaught Of rights and lefts and
again In the sixth there was contact
between his knees and the carpet for
nine seconds.
The blow which finally settled
Corbett' s aspirations was a fearful one,
iammed against his stomach with
tremendous force.
There was much sympathy with Cor
belts effort to come back. He had been
popular champion in spite OF many
reversals.
In or out Of the ring Carbett had an
agreeable personality which won for
him many friends and the we'll known
title Gentleman jim"

HOYLAKE "HARD" GOLF TEST.
SAYS PLATT, HOME AGAIN
Local Champion Says Anything Could Happen on British
Links, in Explaining american Defcat-Stenuous
Golf Week Here
by SANDY McNIRJJCK

at was anybody's game all the way
xSrough. If I we're asked to put in a
nutsbell the reason I would be in
.,;ned 10 find il in the condition Of
Horlakc. 1t was burnt and so hard you
could nearly roller skate all over the
course.
This was the opinion Of J. Wood
P,att, local champion, expressed on his
return from abroad after watching the
pjay for the British amateur golf cham
MON. The American enteries were
beaten off, the British favorites too,
and the sentiment is that both coun-
tries have reason for dissatisfaction
With with the results.
Platt was unable to play due to fall
which injured his knee. He won't be
able to play much locally just yet, for
there is still water on his injured
Joint.
"Neither country expected either Of
the fnalists to come that far, as one
can very we'll Judge from the fact that
neither was picked for the team match
which preceded the event. When you
take more than 200 entries without n
qualifying round and let them go after
each other at eighteen hole matches
anything is liable to happen and it did.

72ENTRANTSFOR
STATE NET MEET
Annual Mems Lawn Tennis
Tournament for Champion
ships Begins at Merton Today
WOMEN HAVE PLAYED
RY SPICK HALL.

The twenty eighth annual lawn ten
mis- tournament for the mems champion
ship OF Pennsylvania began this
afternoon on the turf courts Of the
Merton Cricket Club at Haverford.
This tournament is an open one. and
all players Of amateur standing, whether
residents of the State or not. were
privileged to enter. The women's tour
namcnt for the State championships re-
Gently was held at Merton. Miss Anne
Il. Townsend winning the singles and
doubles with Miss Phyllis Walsh. The
mixed doubles was won by Miss Molly
d. Thayer and her brother Alex.
There were seventy two entries In play
this afternoon. one of the biggest lists
ever turned in for the State tourna-
ment Many doubles also have been
handed in. The drawings for these will
be made late today.
Al Hoskins. who was referee OF the
Church Cup matches, also Is acting In
that capacity for the State tournament.
There will be individual permanent
prizes for winners and runner-up as
well as the cups which become a per-
mnnent possession only after having
been won three times.
Triumph for johnson
Wallace F. Johnson's victory over
Ichiya kumagae in the Church
Cup. matches Saturday afternoon at
Merton was great triumph. To the
majority of the huge gallery the match
meant little more than thrilling bat
tie in which the captain of the Phila :
delphia team trimmed his New York
rival. But to others 1t meant much
more.
1t is conceivable that a man much
further down in the ranking list might
defeat the Jap IL the latter had an of
day. But Saturday he didn't have one.
On the contrary, Kumagae played one
of the finest games of his career, yet
he was beaten. and the reason was that
Wallace Johnson played brand Of ten
mis- that IL maintained throughout the
season will advance him far higher thar
tenth place in the ranking where he
was put in 1920.
johnson began the season correctly
He didn't play through the winter, but
kept in condition by playing or
Cynwyd's interclub squash racqueti
team. The consequence Of this wa,
that when the lawn tennis season begar
he was In fine physical condition, but
not having played tennis to amount tC
anything, was not on the road to stale
ness.

When the play Is over a public
ground like Hoylake. where everybody
goits from morning to night, that links
IN dry spell y going to he hard and
brown: This made the play all the
more hazardous. The American team
MADE an impression for good golf before
the championship and one Of our players
was expected to come through. but an
outsider might as we'll have done the
same thing, and this last is what
happened In my opinion Bobby Jones
was beaten by an inferior golfer, and SO
IL went.
Very Hard
"A ball thrown on a putting green
would bounce clear off. The man who
could play the course best that week
was bound to win if he could keep his
game little steadier than every man
ne met. Thus we lost and they won.
Their iron shots are as accurate as a
rifle and that is a big factor. We had
a hne time and were treated royalty
by the ones who entertained us. II
was a great experience and my only
regret is that I was unable to play.
After my fall I was unable to walk for
time. ] was greatly disappointed but
there was nothing to do but default
Ihat hurt as much as the fall"
