DAVIS CUP
 TEAM ARRIVES IN AMERICA

New York, July 25-Australia's Da- wis cup. tennis team. arrived today in this country ready for it's campaign against French and Spanish players, and, it hopes against Americas de lenders in the international classic.
 The three players-Pat O'Hara Wood holder with Mile Suzanne Len glen of the worlds mixed doubles ti tie; Grald Patterson, holder of the and J. 0. Anderson-ca in on the Majestic and prepared at once to brush up on their play.
 The team meets France in Boston. If it wins, it meets Spain in Philadel phia and if victorious there, will play the United States at Forest Hills, L. l., for the cup. All three of the mem bers will enter the Amrican national championship in hte fall.
 "The title I won at Wimbledon" said Patterson, lis a. world title as far as Europe is concerned, but the United States does not accept it. I have been told that Tilden has chal- lenged me for the world title, and am very willing to play him any where as long as the United States tennis authorities arrange it..
 We defeated the French players at Wimbledon, but I believe the sog- gy condition of the courts had a lot to do with our victory. 1 am not cer- tain we can do it again, but we hope to meet America at the finish,
 Further than to say that in his opinion Mile. Lenglen showed much better tennis ability than Mrs. Molla Mallory when the two met in their famous championship fight, MT. Wood, the French girls former partner. would not discuss her playing. He also said he did not know whether she would come to this country next summer

TENDLER READY TO. MEET
 LEONARD TOMORROW MIGHT

Delanco, N. J., July 25-Lew Tend Ter, Philadelphia challenger. tonight declared himself as practically ready" for his lightweight championship bout with Benny Leonard, the title holder, at Jersey City Thursday night. Lief ty'' intends to polish up tomorrow with few cracks at punching bag and then sit down and dry out.
 Except when he sold newspapers on a Quaker City corner, Tendler al- ways has been taciturn and today he had to be led into talking mood. He declined to predict the result of the match, but he did not conceal his re- sentiment over the disparaging state ments made by Leonard
 If 1 am so poor a boxer, why is Leonard training so hard ?" he asked
 This was Tenders last day of real work. He did not put in a full sched- ule, two of three sparring partners having been se-+ l-7s--o 4o- oase their ribs. lie ran about two tnlles along the. banks O. c--v CT this morning and boxed three rounds this afternoon with Harry Kid Brown.
 Tender, down to about 134 pounds toHight, figured that he would be very close to 135 Thursday afternoon
 The outstanding feature of Tend
 
 He admits he is on the verge of the greatest test of his career. He sees no reason for talking derisively about Leonard and says his daily workouts speak for themselves.
 Tender has read stories of the bet ting odds against him and published reports of boxing writers who pick Leonard to win. Sitting on the portch of his camp this evening he crumpled a paper he was reading and through clinched teeth remarked: I'll get a couple of good punches at that fel- low. Just let me get a few. good smashes.'
 In his sparring. Tender has not sought to avoid the punches of his ring partners. He says his theory is that man has to practice taking punishment to keep his anatomy in a receptive" condition
 His ring here does not offer the opportunity for footwork that Leo nard's does, but Lew says that the disadvantage hasn't cramped him rather. that it forces him to an "ag- gressive defense" by keeping his arms 'puming power" all the time

UNHERALDED CHAMPIONSHIP
 BOUT PULLED OFF

New York. July 25-News of an un- announced and unballyhooed, honest to-goodness encounter for the worlds heavyweight boxing title. in which Jack Dempsey successfully defended his crown in a four-round tilt against Jimmy Darcy, of Portland. Oregon last night in Buffalo. leaked out here today.
 The boxing commission of the state verified the fact. Yes" said Secretary Harry Burchell. it was a champion ship bout, although it wasn't to have been. But we see to it that the box ing laws are upheld in this state"
 Dempsey according to the posters on the bill- boards of Buffalo, was to have met three of his sparTing part ners, including Darcy, in one-round exhibitions. Buffaloians paid a com paratively small admission fee to see the champion exhibit unaware that for a pittance they were to see a world boxing title hang in the bal ance.
 Just before the exhibitions were to start, DempseyS s managers were hand ed a telegram from the boxing, ad- vising that under the law Dempsey would be permitted to meet but one opponent and the bout should, also in accordance with the law, to be a decision.
 Darcy. a light-heavyweight was selected and Dempsey performed, a little lvelier perhaps than he had in tended. The champion received the de- cision.
 As a result Darcy enjoys the dis tinction of being the only pugilist to stay the limit with Dempsey since he won the title, and of having lasted longer against the champion than Georges Carpenter, Fred Fulton. Jess Willard Gunboat Smith, or Carl Nor riS

THE NUGGETS HANG ONE
 MORE ON TO AVANTS

The Nuggets sprang a surprise on the Avants and the general public as we'll when they started a rally in the eighth inning of Tuesday nights game and scored six runs, enough 10 win the fifth game of the series. This win puts the nuggets one game In the lead, they having won three straight games. The next game will be played at the Fairgrounds on Thursday evening.
 Tuesday nights game was not real iy won by the Nuggets but was pre- sented to them though errors on the Avants part. Two wild heaves over third by Catcher Bean let in several runs. The Avants with the exception of few errors played a better game and should have won. Big Chief Mad den pitched the whole nine inning and was given good support in the ueld with the exception of the second base position which was rather weak. This was soon remedied when Texas Callahan was chased out to right field and Jack Hanrahan was put in. Jack was a decided improvement over the portIy Texas.
 Texas and Lefty Harris tried a double steal of home and third in the seventh inning but their plans were thwarted by Slim White who outguessed them and tried to run them down between the bases. However both got back to their bases unmolest- ed while the crowd cheered, ITexas all out of breath and ready to drop.
 Slim White was in fine form hay Ing all kinds of stuff on the old pill tanning eight of the opposition and ,ssued only two passes. Slim also played a whale of a fielding game
 In the outfield "Tillie" Walker pull sd down a couple of drives that were labeled for extra base. Tillie was tried out at third but his playir,y was rather cratic and for the good of the team he was put in the outer gar len. The absence of Jack Craney from he Nuggets lineup was sadly felt and inc fans missed Jacks genial com nent on various plays and his won ierful fielding ability. Doc Kirby, the Avants' first sacker was among. the absent ones so Scud, Old Corner star was recruited for tn position and ably filled the position. Scud is a very yer satile player and fits in well in any position.
 The Avants although beaten Tues day night are confident of the next game and have no fears but that they will even up the series and then forge ahead to<the finish.

GEORGETOW BATTERY SIGNED
 WITH LOCAL KACEYS FOR SEASON

When the Kaceys take the field next Sunday for the third time against the fast .Alhambra club of Worcester they will have the strongest battery out side of the big show Manager OLeary has been scouting round for some time to pick up battery that can produce the real stuff and finally has secured what was rated during the. past col lege baseball season as the best bat tery in the country, a battery that has been offered a contract with the Giants and other big league team Ths battery is Reynolds, pitcher and Kenyon, catcher, the duo forming the battery of the crack Georgetown Uni versity team. Reynolds and Kenyon Rre known from coast to coast as the leading college battery of the Say.
 During the past college season, Rey- holds turned in seventeen straight vic- tories for his school beating Carroll of Holy Cross twice and winning from all other college pitchers during the season. He was offered a con tract with the New York Giants at the completion of the school year but turned the offer down as he intends To return to Georgetown in the fall to complete his college course.
 hEnlOn IS DHe DI the Sndppl6SL eatehers playing today outside the big leagues. Not only is he a good catcher but he is also a hitting fiend and dangerous man on the paths. Dur Ing the past season he had batting average of 420 for the season, many of his hits going for extra bases.
 This battery will remain with the local team fo- the remainder of the season and Norwich fans are indeed fortunate to have such battery work ing for them on the local team With this battery working with the team as it stands today the local team will rank with any semi professional in New England From now on only the very fastest teams that can be pro- cured will be brought here. These teams that will appear here later in the season will include the, Hudson, Mass, team, Ware. Mass, Salem Town team, and other of the logical eontenders for the New England semi pro championship.
 Reynolds who will make his first appearance here Sunday has beaten all the fast teams in the New Eng land states and in the last S4 games he has played he has been returned a victor in B a record that has seldom been equalled He- has been playing up in Maine during the past few weeks.

 Dr. Wyatt, who as a member of the Jersey City clergymen's commu- nifty club. was active in opposing the Dempsey Carpenter encounter last July. told the mayor that the Tend ler-Leonard affair would be demoraI izing. He asked the mayor to see to it, if the fight actually did take place that the law for punishment of crime was enforced
 The mayor thanked me and said nothing more Dr. Wyatt said later. Counsel for the ministerial asso- citation said the association had little hope of preventing the match. but that it was going to seek in the next legislature. a revision of the boxing law, and wanted to show that it had left nothing undone to prevent the Leonard Tender match.

up and motors to Boyle's Thirty Acres to be weighed in.
 Leonard has been rather testy the last few days. In his brief sparring today he stopped several times to re- quest smokers to stop puffing, and kept up a running fire of admonition to those who insisted upon leaning against the ring and all but climbing into the ring. 1
 Leonard and his trainers were en- thusiastic today over the accurate hit ting he has shown in his sparring matches. The three battered sparring partners, .distresed despite the leather guards that protected their heads, garrulously attested the drive behind the champions punches.
 Adverse criticisms of the showing Geonard has made in his training bouts here centers on his footwork, once universally acknowledged as the cleverest to be seen. Leonard believes this criticism to be an egaggeration' but he has taken special exercises after each bout to Timber his leg mus cleS.
