Galaxy of Seeded Stars Are

BRAE BURN COUNTRY CLUB,
WEST NEWTON, Mass, Sept. 49,
After the upsetting storm which
swept through the field at Brae
Burn during the first two rounds OF
match play, carrying down to de-
feat five former amateur champions,
one Canadian title holder and no
fewer than six of the eight star
golfers seeded in the draw by the
U. S. G.. A., the quarter final
matches of the thirty-second ma.
tional championship started today
in an atmosphere of comparative
calm.
There was dynamite, however, IN
one of the days engagements,
which brought together DR.. o. f
Willing of Waverly, oregon, and
George Voight, the slender young
medalist from Long Island.
The other survivors of the devas-
tation which was visited upon the
favorites Wednesday paired off as
follows for today'S 36-hole matches:
Bobby Jones, Atlanta, VS.. John d. Beck.
Great Britain.
Phillips t1nlay, Sanuy burrj w. Jimmy
Johnston, Minneapolis.
T. Phillip Perkins, Great Britain, VS..
John Dawson, Chicago.
The spectacle of Bobby Jones be-
ing carried to an extra hole to save
himself from elimination at the
hands of an unknown Massachusetts,
amateur Wednesday was diverting.
Not once during his second round
match with Ray Gorton Of Brae
Burn was Jones up on his opponent
until the spectacular finish at the
nineteenth hole.
Bobby survived, thanks to his op-
ponents cracking at the extra hole,
and from now on the titlist has COM
paratively easy sailing into the
finals.
The elimination of the American
ex-champions, four of whom were
seeded, was accomplished with neat
ness and dispatch in the opening
matches. Phillips Finlay put out
Francis Quimet, "Ducky" Yates of
Rochester, beat George Won Elm,
Eustace Storey disposed of Max
Marston, while Chick Evans had to
bow to his fellow townSman Johnny
Dawson. Joe Sweetser lost to Voigt
in the second round.

EONESI d1GLHO, IN. L, OSpC. 1o'
Americas hope of winning back
the national singles tennis title, held
by France for the last two years,
was brighter today than at any time
since the forty-seventh annual
championships got under way.
The tournament entered the
quarter finals today, with five
Americans, and one Australian still
in the running. All chance of an
all-foreign final was eliminated
Wednesday when three Frenchmen
and one Englishman succumbed to
the superior stroking of the Ameri-
cans.
Henri Cochet, the frozen-faced
Frenchman who regarded as un-
beatable in this tournament, lin
gered on the border line of defeat
Wednesday before he was able to
triumph over Fritz Mercur, the
Bethlehem (Pa) boy. After almost
two hours of gruelling play, Cochet
won, 4-6, 11-9, Ga, ga.
Three Americans have chance
to meet Cochet in the final, taking
for granted that the former Lyons
Bay boy will survive his next two

While the Indians prepared to do
battle with the Senators in the
fourth jam of the series at Wash
ington Park today, the league-lead-
ing Millers and third-place Brew
ers were occupying prominent parts
in the days possibilities.
A very important double-header
was carded at Minneapolis as a re-
suit of rain washing out the tilt
there Wednesday. If the Brewers
took two today and the Tribe won
here, the Betzelites will gain first
place and Milwaukee will be back
in the pennant fight.
If the Indians win and Millers
and Brewers split even, Indianapolis
will step up to within one-half game
of the top.
Tribe Gets 20 Hits
The Hoosiers slaughtered Colum-
bus in the third conflict of the local
series Wednesday, IL to 4, by ac-
cumulating twenty hits, and the
victory put the Bezelites within one
game of the pace-setting Minneapo-
lis outfit.
Including contests this afternoon
the three top clubs each has twelve
games to play before the season
closes Sept. %.
Indianapolis ends its session with
Columbus here Friday and then
goes to Toledo for five tilts, after
which the Hens invade indianapolis
for five. The Indians have won ten
of fourteen battles with Toledo, but
do not figure to do as well in the
ten remaining contests.
The Miller Schedule
Minneapolis ends its series with
Milwaukee today, and then visits
Kansas City. Later the Brewers
will be met again in a series at Mil
waukee. Much depends on the sue
cess of Blues and Brewers.
Fred Schupp started on the Tribe
mound Wednesday, and lack of con-
troll forced him to retire in the fifth
and Swetonic was called in to check
the Senator attack. And Steve
stopped the visitors in their tracks
and held them runless the remain
der of the setto, allowing only
two hits in four and one-third in
nings.
Hits in Pinch
Sweet" also won fame as a swat
ter by getting two timely singles
that drove in three runs. Manager
Bethel certainly made a good guess
when he picked "Steve" to relieve
Schupp.
Harris and Zumbro hurled for
Columbus and each was solved for
ten safe blows. Bud Connolly
combed the sphere for four singles
and Warstler had a perfect day
with two triples, a single and g
walk.
The Indians had great day ir
the field with Warstler, Connolly
and Haney contributing fine stops
and throws. And Burrus turned in
a neat job Of first basing.
McNulty Of Columbus kept up his gooC
hitting Wednesday and pOled two safe
both off Schupp. Horn smacked a tripl,
in the fourth, drove in two runs with i
and scored himself on wild pitch.
Christensen doubled after one out II
the ninth and was left.
The Indians got five runs on five hit
and two walks in the eighth and pu
the game far beyond reach.

Higgins went into the series
without the services of Herb Pen
mock, his best pitcher and one OF
the greatest southpawS who ever
pulled on a glove. Despite that
handicap, he manipulated his pitch
ers like the little wizard he is and
a large share of the Yanks' glory
must go to him.
The loss of three games does not
mean that Philadelphia is out of
the pennant chase, for Mack's team
has been travelling at a .75o clip
lately and is well-nigh invincible
against any team in the leauge ex-
cept the Yankees.
