L0NCW0oD meet

Boston. Aug. 29-(By A. PD-The
National championship in lawn ten
mis- doubles remains in the United
States The Australian invasion
which has as its triple objective the
Davis Cup. the doubles title and the
singles championship was defeated in
it's secondary phase today when W.
T. Tilden. End, and Vincent Richards,
playing through titlists, turned pack
Gerald L. Patterson and Pat O'Hara
Wood antipodean stars, after losing
the first set. The scores were As,
6-1, 6-3, ga.
The match which had double
significance because of its bearing
on the doubles play in the forth
coming Davis Cup tourney for which
the contenders OF today have been
regarded as the probable nominees,
was marked by The irresistible team
effort of the Americans following
their opening setback. Against the
rush of Tlden's booming service,
Richards smashing volleys. and their
complete court covering, the individ-
ual effort Of O'Hara Wood awaited
little.
Patterson had an off day. One
Of the greatest servers in the tennis
world. he lost as many service games
as he won. A player weak in back
hand play, he found himself the OBJ
ject of an attack that counted often
against his team.
Tilden attained another title to-
day. also pairing with Mrs. Molla
Bjurstedt Mallory to combine the
national title holders in mems and
womens singles as the national
mixed doubles champions Their vic
tory over Miss Helen Wills and
Howard o. kinscy, fellow Califor-
| mans, was accomplished without
great strain, ga, 6-3
OF greater interest among the
spectator host probably the largest
that has ever seen a tennis program
in this city. was the singles match
which Mrs. Mallory won from Miss
Wills. The champion. who defended
her title successfully against the
| girl recently at Forest Hills, \. y.
| found her more difficult an opponent
| today, and it was only after losing
| the first set to her and hairline de-
! cisions in the third that she won
| out, 36, SIS. Us. The final point
| was played over under unusual cir.
| cumstances when after the crowd
| had roared and clappcd its disap-
. prevail of line umpire's decision
which would have given victory to
the champion, Mrs Mallory turned

The National Association opposed
to the Prohibition Amendment, long
name, met in st. Louis, Monday and
Tuesday and declared that wet VS..
dry will be the principal issue of the
1924 campaign. One of the officers
of the association says that the chief
aim of the association is to bring
about the insertion of ''wet' planks
in the platforms of both Democratic
and Republican parties and in this
way give the organization the bal
ance of power, which, he said, has
been held by the Anti-Saloon League
of America. 1t is probably too much
to say that this issue will be the
principal issue in 1924, but it is bound

Those who still think the heavy
Kennedy vote in the first district was
due solely to his Volstead modifca-
ton stand, should at least consider
the effect the $4,000 Kennedy spent
in the campaign may have had. The
Rutland Herald especially interprets
the vote in that district as a stro no
sentiment against the present en-
forcement act but admits there are
four other factors, since it brushed
aside but two of the six this paper
mentioned two weeks ago, and money
was not one of them, because the
Herald believes the expenditure OF
large sums of money in campaigns is
perfectly right, and that it talks
Witness the expenditure made by
Clement, who won largely by money
and the defence the Herald made OF
the Hardness expenditure, who wor
because of money, and the more re-
cent rather large expenditures OF
Proctor and Kennedy, both upheld by
the Herald, of course.

tary in fact, if not so intended. Mr..
Bates is certainly endowed with a lib
eral amount of wisdom and "horse

that he resembled an owl in one very
important particular, he seems to be

by Mr.. Bates very much as bull in

been Hartness', the ventriloauist'>

it would seem, with Mr.. Bates off

Derby farm, that his passing down
the valley to visit his friend, "Sandy,'
and others, should not seriously dis
turb the Reporter. There is one
quality that provincialism seldom
