FORMAL|TY IN
DAVIS. MATCH
LISTED TODAY
Australia Expected to Hand
French Experts Trimming In
Elimination Round.
BY DAVIS j. WALSH.

BOSTON. Aug. 12.-The two finals
singles matches in the Australia
versus France series of the Davis
Cup semi-final round at Longwood
today should and probably will be a
mere formality. In the second Of
these, Gerald Patterson. Of Australia.
will meet Henri Cochet. of France,
and unless all signs fail, all can take
their feet in their hands and go on
about their business directly after
the match. Gerald should knock
Henri for a row Of French pastry.
II he does, the verdict will go TO
Australia regardless Of what Andre
Colbert. Of France, may do to Pat
O'Hara Wood. of Australia, in the
other singles match. Australia will
then have scored three victories In u
possible five and qualified itself to
meet Spain In the final round al
Philadelphia next week.
Were II not for the dark day i'm
pending and the severity OF Patter'
sons service, Cochet would not be
a forlorn hope altogether today. In
deed, this twenty.year- French
schoolboy has surprised everyone
with the tennis he has uncovered
here, and on the face OF the returns
is certainly no mans sap. He might
even carry Patterson to five sets,
for, aside from his service. the win
ner Of the allcomers' singles at Win
bledon has been far from impressive
in this series.
CoChet's game has two outstand
ing weaknesses, to wit: he lacks
anything that might even be con.
90.
he is inclined to fall prey to inexperi.
ence. The latter finds expression In
faulty court tactics and inclination
to indulge himself in fits of wildness
That will all wash out in the laun.
dry, of course, one of these fine days
and then Henry Cochet, of France
will come into recognition as one OF
the finest singles players in the
world.

They All Slump.

TT has come to be an accepted
condition in baseball that all
- good teams must suffer at
least one startling slump In q
season. The Yankees had theirs
when they lost eight straight on
the first Western trip.
The Giants were harassed BY
a similar experience and are TAX
ing an encore right now. The st.
Louis Cardinals couldn't get start
ed in the spring and recently have
been handicapped by mediocre
pitching.
The Detroit team made a fine
squirt after a stumbling start and
have been halted now by lack Of
effective pitching.
The Pirates are playing the
fastest ball in the National League
since they changed managers. d.
OF all the outstanding clubs of
the season, only the st. Louis
Browns have escaped the rocks.
The Browns have gone along

Baseball Gossip For
Diamond Readers

Grabbing himself three singles in
-FOUR trips to the plate, Leon Goslin
enjoyed his first skirmish with Ihe
Red Sox. Incidentally, his cloutinr
average today is 1858, and he's still
going at top speed. II the youngster
can maintain his hitting Of the last
month until the close Of the season,
IT Is possible for him to catch the
leaders. 1t would be odd to have a
sixth place ball club boasting the
champion batsman of the year, but
1t is possible.
After pitching his team to a vic
tory, In which he helped a whole lot
by driving over three Of the five runs
scored, Walter johnson hurried to
his home here where members of
his family are Ill. johnson has per.
formed under many handicaps this
year known only to himself. This Is
one OF them.
Connie Mack showed in his new
pitcher, Ketchum, against the Yam
KEGS yesterday just long enough for
the rookie to lose the game. Ketchum
ought to be anything but a pitcher.
Then his name might mean some-
thing.
Joe Bush hung UP his nineteenth
Victory OF tne year when ne turned
back the Mackmen. Bush Is the only
consistent hurler Miller Huggins has.
Carl Mays and Waite Hoyt, last
years Yank stars, have been fiat fail
ures, while Sam Jones has at no
time approached his form of last
year with the Red Sox!
The Browns are playing in Chi
cago today. They haYe won ten and
lost seven games in their seventeen
tussles with the White Sox this sea-
son, yet they fear Kid Gleason's gang
more than they do the Yanks or the
Tigers. This Is one of the strange
things of baseball.
The Yankees beat the athletics
when Joe Bush put the Yankees on
the long end Of 3-to-2 score.
The Giants made six hits count
for six runs, while the best the Dod-
gers could get out Of eight blows
was / run.
Luque and Markle got in front
OF the Pittsburgh tornado and are
the worse for wear today as a result.
Cooper held the Reds to five hits,
The Washington times., 1922-08-12
Looks for Wall0ps.

IN HE Yankees, however, expect
to see Meusel drive in q
- flock of runs on the coming
home stand. Sir Robert thinks he
can hit on the Polo Grounds-and
does. He isn't so confident on
other fields. Since his belated start
on May 20, Meusel has batted in
more runs than any other Yankee
player.
II is improbable that Wally Pipp
will continue to hit at q 800 clip,
Unlike Meusel, the big first base
man does his best humping away
from home.
However, if Ruth and Meusel get
going the Yanks will have a power
full thrust, as Wally Shang, who
follows Pipp in the batting order, is
one Of the four leading hitters in
the American League.
Dugan Is q snappy hitter and Is
getting on the bases frequently
Scott Is still the same old reliable
timely clouter, and Aaron Ward Is
no weak brother this summer.
The batting order Of the Yankees
is more formidable now than at any
time this season except for Witt
who isn't hitting or getting on the
bases as much as he was in the
spring.

night.
Danforth's failure to win in the
American league has been a great
disappointment to the Browns and
to their followers. II was thought
that he would cinch the pennant but
at no time has he been able to take
his turn on the rubber.
Charges of illegal delivery, made

The Washington times., 1922-08-12

Baseball fans who were pessi-
mistic over the chances Of the
Yanks during their last protracted
stay on the Polo Grounds will see
a vast improvement today. For one
thing, Joe Dugan has speeded up
the infield. Dugan, furthermore, is
q good hitter. He Is making good
the predictions Of those who said
be would be q real star where there
was an incentive to hustle.
Another important factor In the
attack Of the Yankees is the brace
taken by George H. Ruth. When
Ruth is hitting the team doesn't
lose many close games.
Having observed the batting out
breaks indulged in by Ruth and
Walter Pipp after their little argu-
ment on the bench in st. Louis, Mr..
Huggins contemplates matching up
certain other pairs of his players.
It might not be a bad idea to
have Bob Meusel pick on Whitley
Witt. Neither of these gents dis
tinguished himself as batter on
the Western trip.

Rumor quickly spread and was

revival Of racing over the old Ben.
ming course,
1t was pointed out that under

the law which prohibits thorough

but the placing Of wagers thereon
Is. The argument was advanced
that the game could very well be
