More Truth Than Poetry
BY JAMES J. MONTAGUE
FUTURE FOR Ex CHAMPS.

FUTURE FOR EX CHAMPS
Gene Tunney says he would like
to take up diplomacy.
When fighters are hard upon 1orty
They are usually what is called
Through"
Unfit for life without muscular
strife,
There is nothing at all they can do;
And so, when the greatest of battlers
Have reached that unfortunate age,
AS a general thing they are out
of the ring
And exit forthwith from the stage.
But 10! there has opened a calling
For the bruiser whose last waning
punch
Can scarcely be felt when it plasters
On far younger fighting mans
lunch.
Diplomacy offers a meter
For the fighter whose time-Weak-
ened blows
Lack the power they had to send
some other lad
To dull and unconscious repose.
Would a diplomat venture TO argue
With champ whose herculean fist
The guilefullest mind would be certain
to find
A difficult thing to resist?
Would ambassadors haggle en- ques-
tions
When they knew, II an itnpasse
arose.
They might land on the floor with
their ribs battered sore
And a big convex dent in the nose?
If diplomacy turns, in the future
To haymaker, wallop and swing,
If disputes are fought out by the
old fashioned bout
And the laws and the rules of
the ring
The questions dividing the nations,
Be they vast and complex as they
may,
Will be roughly composed, and the.
incident closed
With no diplomatic delay.

at the Blue and White athletic
field in preparation for the North
Siders' opening contest of the grid
season here next Friday against

Head Coach Alonzo Goldsberry
sent his charges through a hard
scrimmage with headgears and
closed up with wind sprints to such
an extent the Shortridgers were
painting with tongues out at the
conclusion of the session.
Goldsberry. assisted by Assistant
Coaches Messersmith, julius and
Rauh, concentrated on straight
football. The squad. just back
from a two-weeks training session
at Camp Crosby, is in fine shape.
The probable lineup for the open
ing game with Westfield will be
composed of Captain Ennis, left
end; Bill Skinner. left tackle; V.

Share Prize
Cash Equally
Bitter Criticism Made Over
Decision of WrigIey
Swim Committee.

BIZ United Press
TORONTO, Ont, Sept. 8.-Bitter
criticism cropped out Friday at the
decision of the Wrigley fifteen-mile
endurance swim committee to award
$4,000 each to the final survivors in
the Wednesday water derby.
No one completed the f1fteen-mile
swim, Georges Michel, the last sur
vivor, giving up at the end of 1919
miles. The bitterly cold water
forced the 1919 starters to withdraw.
The fourteen who will share in the
awards are:
Georges Michel, France; Ernest
Vierkotter, Germany; Louis Matthias,
Long Island; William Erickson, New
York; Mendell Burdett, Toronto;
Myron Cox, Los Angeles; Howard
Holley, San Francisco; Roland Tegt-
meier, Seattle, Wash; George
Young, Toronto; Orville Hammell,
Mauzo, Ill; Harry Van Papenfus,
South Africa; Garrett Cochrane,
Coburg. Ont; Norman Ross; Harold
S. Preston, Smithville, Ont.
Officials decided that since no one
had won the swim, it was better to
divide the money equally. Michels
handlers were practically indignant,
pointing out the Frenchman was the
last man out of the water, and that
he had covered more distance than
any one else.

France NabS
Wide Margin
Over Yanks
Foreigners Need but Two
Matches to CIinCh
Net Victory.
BY GEORGE KIRKSEY
United Press Correspondent

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Sept. g.
Needing only two matches to clinch
The international team series, France
today was expected to add another
tennis victory over the United States
to the Davis Cup triumph of last
July.
The Frenchmen won three of the
four match played Friday on the
slippery courts the Germantown
Cricket Club, losing only three sets
in the four matches.
Five matches-three singles and
two doubleS-were scheduled today,
and from the form the Americans
exhibited Friday the invaders we're
in no danger Of losing any OF their
tennis prestige.
America today banked on its two
doubles teams of George Lott and
John HenneSSey and John Van Ryn
and Wilmer Allison to prevent the
French from making a complete
rout of the team matches. Lott and
HennesSey, national doubles cham
pionS, were to play Jean Borotra
and Jacques Brugnon, former
French Davis Cup pair, and Van
Ryn and Allison were to meet Henri
Cochet and Rene De Buzelet.
Rene De Buzelet, the young
Frenchman, was to play Francis L.
Hunter, veteran American, and
Pierre Landry, also appearing here
for the first time, was to meet John
Doeg. Christian BousSus, the left
handed French youngster, was to
play Wilbur F. Coen Jr.
Three of Americas stars collapsed:
before the French assault Friday,
and the gallant efforts of the two
others could not save the day. John
Van Ryn, former Princeton star,
prevented France from making a
clean sweep of the first days
matches. He defeated Jacques
Brugnon in the opening match,
5-3, 60.
Doeg, the Santa Monica, Cal,
southpaw, played brilliantly in the
doubles match, but all his efforts
could not atone for Junior Coen'S
errors and the French combination
of Pierre Landry and Christians
BousSus won, 6-2, Us.
Those two young Stalwarts from
the West-George Lott and John
Hennessey-Lott lost to Henri
Cochet, 6-1, 6-3. Hennessey almost
had Borotra subdued at one stage
of their match, but the Indianapolis
boy allowed the rounding Basque
to stage brilliant rally in the third
set to win 6-3, So, GA.
HenneSsey led three games to one
in the third set. but Borotra
smashed and volleyed his way
through the next four straight
games to take a So lead. Hen
Messy won the ninth game, but
Borotra completed his victory in the
next game.

on Sunday.
"HUGMEN ARE DOOMED"
Says Joe Williams of Pen
ant Chances.
BY JOE WILLIAMS,


NEW YORK, Sept. 8.-The Yanks
and the AS begin set of important
games in the stadium Sunday.
These games are being called the
little world series. More than that,
they threaten to be the only thing
approXimating a world series the
customers will see this year in the
stadium.
The experts say the Yankees have
shot their bolt. Their present pre-
dicament cited with the AS after
once being in front by thirteen
games), might have been less acute
If they had shot something else.
Preferably one or two pitchers, a
couple of infielders and a catcher.
Bucky Harris predicts that if the
AS ever get out in front nobody
will catch them. Maybe nobody will
want to-. You seldom see a wild
rush of volunteers combing thickets
for an escaped lion.
Broken Long Ago
The experts do say this series will
make or break the Yaunks and that
it will do. the same to the AS. What
could be funnier or fairer? Still,
think the Yanks we're broken when
Pennock developed a marceled sinew
in his soup bone and Lazzeri's arm
sprung a leak in the region of the
shoulder.
1t is true, of course, that to
Yank requirements haven't stood up.
Mr.. Higgins had a great ball club
as long as he was able to keep it
intact. For all I know he may have
had, as Mr.. Wilbert Robinson and
other veteran judges of baseball
flesh claimed, the greatest ball club
Of all time, though the evidence
based on recent development would
seem to indicate an overplus of OPP
timism on the part of the critics.
Up until the big slump came the
AS were the one team the YankS
could beat without changing their
street clothes. The records yodel
an impressive note of superiority,
with thirteen wins and five defeats.
Mr.. G. Herman Ruth was asked
how the AS managed to win those
five.
'I couldn't tell you. wasn't look
ing" answered the great man.
Use Some Science!
If the Yanks with their battered
lineup, are able to continue this
dominance over Mr.. McGillicuddy's
men you can get in touch immedi-
ately with your cousin Elmer and
tell him the AS are either afraid
of the Yanks or they're begged
down by inferiorities and repres-
Sions.
I should say that the outcome of
this series means less to the AS
than the Yanks. They each have
sixteen games to play after finish
ing here, and the way the AS are
going they figure to make up whSs
lost ground they might suffer, with
greater speed and sureneSs than
Mr.. Higgins disorganized club.
In short, the Yanks, if they are
to repeat, must have the services of
strong, able bodied, f1rst-class
miracle that isn't afraid of work.
Whether they win or lose this
series they seem doomed.

Farrell and
Hagen Clash
Third Time
Walter in Sight of World
Golf Crown at
PhiIly.

Ry United Press
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. oval
ter Hagen, British open champion,
reached for the unofficial world golf
crown today in the third of series
of the thirty-six-hole matches with
Johnny Farrell, national open
champion, at the hilmont Country
Club.
Having won the two previous con-
tests at Detroit and Chicago, Hagen
needed only a victory in today's
match to clinch the mythical world
golf title.
If Hagen wins today, it will be
the third time he has captured the
mythical championship. He de-
feated Gene Sarazen in 1922 and
Cyril Walker in 1924. The first
eighteen holes we're on the morning
program and the final eighteen
down for the afternoon.
