Baseball Chutes Are
Wide And Well
Creased

Back in 1919 the star of
the Cincinnati Reds pitching
staff was a chap by the name
of Eller. He had what he
called a "shine ball" that the
opposing batsmen were utterly
unable to do anything with.
But the baseball people legis-
lated against freak deliveries,
and Eller passed out from the
big leagues.
JuN the other day came the
word that the former star had
not been equal to the pace in
the Pacific Coast League and
had been shipped to the
Southern Association. Wide
and well-greased are the
"chutes" in baseball, and once
player get on them he
travels, swiftly and with dis
patch, in but one direction.

HARRY GREB ANXIOUS TO
MEET JOHNNY WILSON

NEW YORK. Aug. 31.-Johnnv
Wilson's belated challenge to Harry
Greb has aroused the ire of George
Engle, who looks after Greb's in
terests. The idea of Marty Killilea
referring to Greb as a quitter has
caused Engle to gnash his teeth with
rage. He says that after Greb won
the light heavyweight title he
worked like beaver to have the
commission lift Wilson's suspension,
and that he cannot understand why
Killilea should turn upon him now
that all is quiet. Engle winds up
by saying that II Rickard can get
Wilson to sign articles Greb always
will be willing TO meet him.

The Washington times., 1922-08-31

Announcement of the selections
for the opening day Of the three-day
engagements were made public to-
day by Julian s. Myrick, the referee
following consultation with Capt
Patterson and Capt. r. Norris Will
iians, I'd, of the United States team,
defenders of the famous trophy.
1t was also announced that on
Monday Patterson will meet John.
son In that days first match and
that Anderson will play Tilden later.
The captains reserve the right to
name their teams for. the doubles
match, which will take place on
Saturday, until Friday afternoon.
The announcement Of the selections
win be made by Captain Patterson
and Captain William at Forest Hills
before competition gets under way.
In view OF the victory of Tilden
and Vincent Richards over Patter.
son and Pat o'Hara Wood in the
national doubles at Boston yester-
day, It is generally believed that the
United States doubles defenders in
the doubles match will be this pair
0'Hara Wood, a star In doubles
play. Is sure to get In action In
this match. But whether he will
be paired with Anderson or Pat
terson Is question.
Anderson has not yet taken part
In a Davis Cup match here this
year. Illness kept him out Of the
Australians semi.final engagement
with the French and also in the
final against the Spaniards. How
ever, he has now recovered and has
been getting himself in fine condi.
ton by workouts at Forest Hills.
Reports have 1t that he appears at
the top Of his form.
There seems to be considerable
variance in opinion over whether
Anderson is not as good or better
than Patterson when right. He Is
now generally placed second, how
ever, because Patterson is captain
and also because he was defeated
by the powerful hitting captain.
Yet, Anderson while a little softer
in his game, has a great variety
of strokes and is accurate and
steady generally.
Anderson has beaten Patterson
several times and has also scored
over Tilden. If on his gsme-as
so good a critic as Dean Mathey.
the American player. now says he
is--Anderson may well be set down
as a dark horse" in the challenge
round play.
Little Bill" Johnston and An.
derson should furnish all kinds
Of thrills when they meet Friday.
II Anderson proves the star
among the trio from the Anti
podes, IL will be no great surprise.
Captain Patterson. through his
victory at Wimbledon in the ALI
coners tourney. Is now regarded
as worlds champion in singles.
The British tourney. bringing to-
gether as 1t does the stars OF all
the world. has long been considered
the medium for deciding this issue.
However. 1t is only in the teen
nical sense. william T. Tilden. End,
winner in 1920 and 1921 at Wimble-
don, did not defend his worlds title
this year.
So, when this pair meet Friday,
many will regard it as settling
question Of supremacy. The defeat
OF Patterson by Francis T. Hunter
at Seabright though, takes much
of the edge off anticipation. Then.
