Godfrey, Negro heavyweight, pound-
ed Monte Mum, the young Me-
braska Legislator Wednesday night
and scored a technical knockout in
the fourth round when the referee
stepped in and stopped the slaugh-
ter.
Fight fans, looking a year ahead,
were convinced Godfrey has i'm
proved to the point he no longer
can be matched against "Palukas"l
and are beginning to wonder wheth-
er Tex Rickard and other promoters
who have designs on the 1928 title
fight will attempt to = draw the
color line that prevented Wills from
getting chance at the crown.
Mum was staggering around the
ring, punch-drunk at the finish.
Godfrey had put over series of
rights and lefts to the head which
drew a steady flow of blood from
the Nebraskah's mouth and nose.
In the third a crashing right to the
jaw sent Mum to the canvas. He
arose unsteadily on the count Of
nine and was groggy at the bell.

BIZ United Press
NEW YORK, Sept. 15.-Of the
last eight survivors in the National
Tennis singles championship who
were to play in the quarter final
round at Forest Hills today, four
were Americans, and possibly five
because the 'Jaques Brugnon-Arnold
Jones match was called at two sets
all on account of darkness and still
remained to be decided.
Things began to look brighter for
the home talent Wednesday when
the French ace, Henri Cochet, was
brought down by the brilliant attack
of Johnny Hennessey of Indian
apolis.
From the first point of Wednes-
days fifth set, Hennessey called up
on all his reserve strength ana ran
away with the set with the loss of
but one game. The Hoosier stole
Cochet's thunder by launching the
offensive. Cochet never had been so
completely overwhelmed in a closing
set before.
The young Americans all-court
attack puzzled the French visitor.
The gallery, excited with the length
of the play, went wild when the
American won.
Hennessey today was to play
Frank Hunter.
Bill Tilden was to meet Jean
Borotra. Tilden disposed of Borotra
easily in their last two meetings.
Little Bill" Johnston advanced
merrily by way of straight set victor
les. He was to tackle the winner of
the Brugnon-Jones match.

TIT is O. baseball proYero that IN

been able to do that very thing in a
most convincing manner. So-called

race Washington got into a position
where the players believed they Of
tered a threat. When the two clubs
met, New York won three out of
four of the genes and started Wash,

until that club had lost twelve
straight.
A little later, Detroit, with thir-
teen straight victories to its credit,
met New York in a thres-game
series.
New York won all three games
and started the Tigers on the road
to ruin, Detroit suffering eight
straight defeats before winning a
ball game.
