Brewer runs and the ball game. The

ca in the Davis cup matches. The
last act of the big show will be the
mems national.
Miss Wills Sure Bet
The general opinion is that Helen
Wills is sure bet for the American
championship. She has improved
so much she is not threatened seri-
ously by any of the amateurs.
The only woman who stands be-
tween Helen Wills and world SUI
premacy is Suzanne Lenglen, and
she is no longer eligible to compete
in amateur tournaments.
Opinion on william T. Tilden's
ability to regain his championship
differs. The only phase of Tilden's
tennis machine which troubles me
is not physical' or mechanical, but
mental. I wonder if his confidence
has not been shaken.
Has the WalIop
Tilden can still play tennis strokes
that no tennis player today can
equal. He has the wallop which
carries the k. o. of the ring and no
one will be foolish enough not to
give the fellow with the wallop an
outside chance at least.
La Coste, Cochet and Borotra are
clever, accurate players, but Titlen
is accurate as we'll.
If the delicate mental equipment
of highly nervous and tempera-
mental player like William Tilden is
impaired, it will take great deal Of
tennis 10 bring it back to normal.
1t usually takes a good victory to
bring confidence, but 1t takes conf
dence to obtain the victory, so 1t is
rather hopeless circle.
1t is my bunch and hope, how
ever, that William Tilden will win
back his laurels.

Willis, lefty who looks much like
Dutch Henry, twirled the first fray
Sunday for Milwaukee. He is from
the Philly Athletics. Matthews was
best against him with two singles
and triple.
Luce poled home run off Bur-
we'll in the fourth.
BurWell was great on defense
with three putouts and five assists.
Walter Holke had six assists in
the opener Sunday and this is be-
lieved to be league record for first
basemen. Tom Hickey's A. A. book
does not record high mark for as
sists for first, sackers, buts Holke'S
feat no doubt will be added to the
list next year.
The Indians hurriedly gave the
second game away Sunday by spot
ting the Brewers two runs in the
first inning. An error and two
passed balls were responsible. Lev
erett and Jonnard pitched this
fracas and the former famed nine
and the latter five.
Claude Jonnard struck out four
times in a row.
Luce swatted a triple and two
singles to lead the attack against
Leverett.
Jonnard held the locals to four
hits, Matthews getting two of them.
Leverett got a double and the other

that ever has graced the sport.
Walter johnson is not only great
pitcher, but a real gentleman No
wonder he is held up to the youth
of America as an ideal for which all
should strive.
I deem it an honor to have been
associated with Walter johnson over
twenty years of strenuous campaign
ing. During all that time I cannot
recall one single complaint he has
ever made over any decision rem
dered by an umpire. I am sure we
have made many decisions against
him which deserved strenuous pro-
test.

ter Johnson made his debut. While
a most suspicious start in many
ways, he was defeated by Detroit,

Fl WENTY years later, Aug. 2,
I'LL 1927, 1 was again favored by
President Johnson of the
American League by being assigned
to umpire the game that commence
rated JohnSon's twentieth anniver-
sary as member of the Washing
ton club. While he pitched a great
game, he was again forced to taste
defeat at hands of the Detroit club,
containing not one member of the
club he faced in his debut. The loss
of the game, however, was not
charged officially to Johnson.
As / watched Johnson pitch
against Detroit on his twentieth
anniversary, the very traits that
have made him a great pitcher
and baseball hero were apparent
from the very start of the game.

Huy HEN waiter johnson stepped
IWI on The rubber in that game,
~ he realized the fans were
there to make comparisons with the
johnson of today and twenty years
ago.
The hero worship that the base
ball fan has for his favorite star, and
to every fan Johnson is an outstand-
ing hero, made all of them pull for
Johnson to have a big day.
1t has been a fixed theory of
Johnson's that a ball player should
always give his best.
In the first four innings Of the
game, he showed all the old time
dazzling speed and not Detroit
