Little Chance of Tilden and Richards Forming
u. S. Davis Team Again

cunning. 1t has always been Gus
tomary for Griffith to play with John
ston, hence the rumor that the two
would seek the Davis Cup selection
for the doubles.
Sandy Wiener, the Philadelphia
youngster who is protege of Cham
pion Bill Tilden, is showing constant
improvement in his play. As re-
suit, his name is being linked with
Tllden as Davis Cup possibility in
the doubles.
The Kinsey brothers of California,
who have always gone big in the
doubles, loom up as contenders for
the honor. Then there is the team
of Dick Williams and Watson Wash
burn, not forgetting Vincent Rich
ards and Francis Hunter. In several
tournaments recently held Richards
and Hunter have worked together
we'll.
1t is almost certainty that Tildcn
and Richards will not be the selec-
ton of the tennis committee as the
doubles representative in the cup
matches. Who will be selected how
ever, will probably be kept secret
until shortly before the event!
There is strong possibility that
the committee will ask the two Bills
Tilden and Johnston-to be the dou-
bles battery. This combination is
generally regarded as the strongest
that could possibly be selected.

Bismarck had three men on in the

BY Billy Evans

Who will represent the United
States in the Davis Cup matches,
the tennis classic?
Bill Tilden and Vincent Richards
carried the banner last year and fail
ed to deliver. The defeat of these
two great players was the outstand-
ing upset of the tournament.
Despite the fact that Tilden and
Richards once held the championship
in the national doubles, they proved
no match for Gerald Patterson and
Pat O'Hara Wood, the Australian
cracks. In this match Wood showed
to great advantage.
There are some leading tennis ex-
perts who are of the opinion that
Richards and Tilden, despite their in
dividual prowess on the courts, do
not make an ideal doubles team. Ger
tainly they failed to display cham
pionship form last year.
The return to competition of Clar-
ence "Peck" Griffin, has caused the
rumor to be widely circulated that
he and Bill Johnston, second ranking
player, would seek to win the honor
of being selected to represent the
United States in the Davis Cup
matches.
While Griffin has not played a
great deal during the past two years,
his recent fine work makes it seem
that he has lost none of his old-time

Boston, Aug. 8.-A new star has
burst forth on the pugilstic firm
ament.
Enter Jimmy Jones of Youngstown.
o., at the expense of Dave Shade Of
California.
Jimmy Jones is welterweight, n
real one, able to make the stipulated
weight of 142. Right now he looms up
rs the logical contender for the well
terweight title, which has been care
fully preserved in camphor balls ever
since Mickey Walker won it from
Jack Britton.
Fistic fame has been thrust upon
Jones almost overnight. His decisive
defeat of Dave Shade in this city Of
culture and manly art, ranks as one
of the biggest upsets of the year
Dave Shade, the fighter whom
Champion Walker studiously avoid
ed, until the New York Boxing Com
mission became so peeved that 1T
forfeited the weller title to Shade,
as far as New York state is concern
ed, was used by Jones as stepping
stone to fame.
Decisively Defeated Shade
l was fortunate enough to see the
bout in which Jones was awarded the
decision over Shade after 10 rounds
of the fastest milling l have ever
seen.
While Jones did not win by the
proverbial city block, his margin at
the finish was so apparent that there
wasn't Il dissenting voice in the i'm
mense crowd that packed the Arena
Athletic Club.
When you consider that Shade, u
popular favorite in Boston and
picked to win at odds of 2 to /, was
handed the wrong end of the decision
without murmur from a single fan,
it is evident that Jones clearly won
the battle.
Over year ago Jones met Shade
at Canton, o. At that time Shade

Smith and Jones are playing a
match game without caddies. Smiths
ball lies on the edge of the green
about 30 feet from the hole. Smiths
approaching putt is perfect and were

remained in the hole would have
dropped into the cup. Instead it
bounded off and came to rest with
in about six inches from the hole Is
there any penalty because the ball
struck the flag stick? Jones insists
that it entities him to the hole.
There is no penalty. Jones is in
error in claiming the hole. Regard
less of the distance a ball Is played
from. there is no penalty if it strikes
the flag-pOle. As a matter of fact
Jones probably got the better of the
break, since Smith would have prob
ably holed out had the flag-stick
been removed.
Player tees his ball and while ad-
dressing it preparatory to starting
his swing, the bail rolls from the

What about this play?
Is the ball. dead when it hits the
base runner? Can runners advance
orr be retired on such a play!
THE INTERPRETATION
After the shortstep had made a
play on the ball. the fact that it
struck the runner going to third
made no difference. The ball was in
play. The runner advanced at his
peril. If the center fielder was able
to throw him out at the plate, it was
a proper play.

LITTLE FOSS BOY HAS
ARM BROKEN BY FALL

Phillip Oliver Foss. son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Oliver o. Foss of Homestead,
had his arm broken several days ago
when he was jostled off a long stick
held by two youths who were much
larger.
The two boys, Theodore Ryneen and
Palmer Brenden who around the ages
of II and Is had the seven-year-old
boy on a stick and were giving him
real ride, but apparently did not
know the extent of endurance which
the young lad had and after vainly be-
seeching the larger boys to stop, Phil
lip fell to the ground, breaking his
arm.
Mr.. Foss brought the young boy to
Plentywood last week and had the
arm set. This has caused Mr.. Foss
a great deal of expense as well as
much suffering for the little fellow,
and it is hoped that means may be
taken to prevent older boys from
hectoring the smaller lads and caus-
ing such dire results as the above.

he tells me to put up or shut up. l
