RICHARDS IS CHOSEN
Youthful Tennis Star Selected As A Member of American Davis Cup Team, By Committee.

New York, Aug. 1o.-America' de- tense of the Davis Cup, emblematic of world superiority in tennis, will be in the hands of the present national champion, two of his predecessors and youngster new to International com petition, when the challenge round is played at Forest Hills, L. l., Sept. 1, ? and A.
 William T. Tilden, 2d, of Philadel- phia, present title holder; William M. Johnston of San Francisco and R. Norris Williams. 2d, of Boston, both title holders of the past, and Vim cent Richards of Yonkers, the youth full star, will compose the team. Will Hams will be the captain, as he was last year.
 The selections were made yester- of the Davis Cup committee which has spent the last few weeks watch ing all the best players in the coun- try. Which of them will play in the singles and doubles was not decided and probably will not be made known until "A hours before play started.
 The appointment of Richards, who, though only 19 years old. is the third ranking player in the country, came as surprise. He displaces Watson Washburn of New York, doubles team mate of Williams and a thor oughly seasoned international match player and a veteran of Davis Cup contests.

ALEXANDER'S VIEWS
Cubs Great Pitcher Attributes Pass ing of Blunt and Squeeze Play to the Lively Ball.

Chicago, Aug. 1o.-Three interest | ing steps seen in the development of l ssebal are ascribed by veterans of the diamond to the lively ball. name | lv the gradual disappearance of the bunt, the squeeze play and the field ing pitcher.
 According to Grover Cleveland
 Alexander, veteran pitcher, the great
 majority of players are swinging heavily at the ball now, and having new bats made with smaller grips in an effort to knock it over the fence. Where I used to have four or five assists in every game" said Alexand- err T rarely have chance at one now. The ball goes past the box so fast the pitcher has no chance for an assist any more"
 The sacrifice fly has largely re- placed the squeeze as a method of bringing home a runner on third, ac- cording to baseball veterans. In Sun days game between the Cubs and the Giants, Feb Terry pulled off the first squeeze play attempted by the Cubs or their opponents this season. Smith, who fieded the ball. was so sur rrised he let Terry cross first when he saw it was too late to prevent Heathcote from scoring.
 Because the ball is so lively, it Is said batters rarely take a chance on trying to lay the ball down in front of the plate, as 1t is almost certain to turn into an easy infield out

Eastern Point, Conn, Aug. 1o.- Miss Glenna Collett of Providence, R. l., women's eastern golf champion, yesterday established a new record for the Shenecossett links, and incl dentally one of the greatest records ever turned in by woman player.

 She started out poorly taking a s on the first hole, but did par or better on all of the succeeding seventeen with the exception of the fourth and ninth. Her only birdie was a 4 on the par seventh. Her round yesterday would have beaten the best ball of Taylor and Herd here two weeks ago by 1 up.

COUNT ACTS PEEVED AT HIS YOUNG WIFE
She Couldn't keep Quiet Though,
 and Announced Marriage

New York, Aug. 1o,-Edmund Al, fonzo De Jiminez, reputed Spanish count, who squandered his s15,ooo fortune trying to break into the nov les at Hollywood, and who Is now 8 floor walker in a Broadway depart ment store, was a little bit peeved to- day because his American bride, a public school teacher, let out the se- cret Of their marriage.
 Not even the brides mother or father knew Of 1t until they read a little piece in the papers saying that Miss Flora Louise Nelson, 25, Of Union Hill, N. J., announced her mar riage last July 8 to the count.
 After telling reporters, who found him pacing before the cosmetic coun- ter, that he would rather be a s2,ooo year floor walker in New York than nobleman In Seveile, the count dis coursed on the fielding.
 Wife "In For it."
 T fear" he said, with a sigh. "I fear that I shall have to give my wife the dickens tonight
 We were married at the munici- pal building" he remarked. We in tended to have another ceremony in September at the Spanish mission on Riverside drive. Then would be the time for the announcement-w we have suitably prepared the engraved letter, as is fitting Is 1t not"
 Ever since the wedding the coun- tess has been living with her parents, just as always, and the count has kept to his own lodgings in New York.
 It seems the countess figured that If her mother got the news of the wedding from the newspapers while the daughter was away from home, she'd have time to get over her first reaction to the idea by the time daughter returned. The wedding an nouncement hinted that the count was just living here for the time be ing, so reporters asked him if he was going to take his brige back to Sunny Spain.
 Likes His New Life
 "Eh," said. he, with a shrug you have-what you call it? - the bum steer. I have pleasure in my work I make s2,0oo a year and I please my employers. I have become citizen of the United States. I have the vote am happy. Titles and nobiity-l have grown away from that stuff
 Who knows, thought the inquiring reporters, but what the count has al so sentimental attachment to the cosmetic counter. For it was there he told them that he met Miss Nell son, who had come to buy and re- mained to fall in love.
 When he got to New York, 12 years ago, the purse was getting thin and SO he gave up being a count and went to work At the Spanish consulate, De Jiminez's claim to a title could not be confirmed.
