TILDEN BATTLES
 YOUNG PROTEGE
Tennis Veteran Meets Wilbur
 Coen on Newport Courts

Newport, R. L, Aug. 23 P- Semi final play in the 18th annual Newport casino invitation singles tennis tournament today saw Big Bill Tilden ranged against his youth ful protege w. F. Coen Jr., of Kan sas City and George M. Lott Jr., of Chicago faced with the necessity of eliminating John Van Ryn Of Orange. N. J., to enter the final round hi, lself.
 Coen became a semi-finalist by virtue of straight set facing he handed yesterday to Paul De Ricou, member of the Oxford -Cambridga team, but probably was only enable to stay in the tournament at all be- cause of the generalship of the man he meets today. Coen had lost the first two sets in his fourth round match with Winner Allison, a Davis Cup player, and seemed sure to be eliminated in another when the lanky Philadelphian rushed to the sidelines to coach the faltering Coen.
 The Kansas City youth immedi- ately reversed his form and came back strong to overwhelm the Texas star. Van Ryn and Henry w. Bunny Austin of England engag ed in an extra set tilt in the quar- ter finals with the resultant elimina- tion of the British Davis Cup play CT but only after a pretty display of volleying and lobbing.
 The most torrid match of the day was easily that in which Lott van quished Berkeley Bell of Dallas, Tex, the national intercollegiate champion, in 49 game, five set contest which lasted the better part of three hours. Bell was near eX- haustion when the final points hal been made. The scores were 6-4, 2-6 6-3, 6-S, 6-2.
 Tilden's victory over Fritz Mercur of Harrisburg, Pa, was especially sweet for the champion, because Mercur is one of the flew players nament play. Mercur's play was er- ratio and although the Philadel- phian showed a brand of tennis far from brilliant he was never in ap- parent danger.
 In the doubles play, the days only upset was the elimination of Philip Neer of Portland, Ore. who with Bruce Barnes of Austin, Tex, de- feated the worlds champion con- bination of Allison and Van Ryn in the opening round. They were put out by J. B. Fenno, Boston. and F.. W. Feibleman of New York in straight sets.

 Western Open Title

Milwaukee, Wis, Aug. 23 t=- Tommy Armour erstwhile holder of the national open title. topped the field with sparkling 65, five under par, as TO golfers from the st and middlewest moved into the sec end stage of the battle for the west ern open championship today.
 A stroke behind the Scot was Horton Smith. Joplin, Mo, senSa- tion; two strikes to the rear of Smith were Gene Sarazen, and Dick Nelson, Indianapolis profess;onal, who had 6S's. while Frank Walsh of Appleton, Wis, open champion: Henry Cuici.

 So closely punched were the la vorites that the only probability was that a new champion was to be crowned at the end of the 72 holes of medal play. Abe Espinosa, of Chicago, the titleholder was exactly 10 strokes behind Armour.

ticed faithfully with the boys teams in preparation for the game.
 Eager for the fray, both captains Eunice Mann for Willow Brook and Elizabeth Nogiel for Nathan Hale, agreed to play strictly according to baseball rules. The contest was practically even until the sixth when Nathan Hale pushed across eight runs and remained well in the lead for the remainder of the game. Will low Brook made a great bid in the eighth but fell short. Remarka bic fielding and good pitching marked Nathan Hales play. Francis Crean pitched very we'll for the Southend- CTS but her support was ragged. Gertie Stein, Lou Gehrig in the field and at bat, ably substituted for Captain Elizabeth Feeney, whose absence cast gloom upon the Nathan Hale team before the game. Anna Pralaikas played her usual game in left field, making difficult putouts look easy. Eva Gagner at third for Willow Brook had a great day snar-
  ing foul flies and Mary O'Brien sub- stituted in every position which at the time appeared weak. The teams lined up as follows:

 Cut by ATbiterS

Manchester Eng, Aug. 23 Rl- Lancashire cotton mills workers were asked today to accept a reduc- ton of 6.41 per cent in their wages. just half what their employers sought more than a month ago to impose.
 The arbitration court, appointed last week when the workers went back to their jobs after remaining away three weeks. required only two days to arrive at it's findings.
 It's five members agreed the cot ton industry was in an exceedingly depressed condition and needed aln immediate palliative. They were not however, wage reduction was the proper cure for the depression.
 The employers previously had asked for a reduction of 25 per cent on the standard piece price list which would have meant 12 1-2 per cent on the current rates of wages paid to more than 5o0,Oo0 workers The arbitration board decided to award a 12 12 per cent reduction on the standard list, which Is seeut 6;4l per cent reduction in actual wages.

M0LLA MALLORY
 MAKES COMEBACK
Tennis Veteran Wins Brilliant
 Victory Over Betty Nuthal

Forest Hills, N. Y, Aug. 23 LP- Just when Mrs. Molla Biursted Nal lory seemed fading from the picture as a contender for major tennis honors, the veteran Norsewoman has come back into the spotlight with a smashing, straight-set victory over Betty Nuthall in the quarter finals of the national women's championship.
 It may be that the familiar sur roundings served as an inspiration to call forth some of the super ten his that marked her heyday. for Molla has won this championship oftener than any other player in the world, and always is at her best on the famous turf of the West Side stadium.
 Although able to outdrive ani out-maneuver the English girl who had been figured to give Miss Wills "a hard battle. Mrs. Mallory was given only slight chance to stop Miss Wills today The champion has lost only two games in four matches in the tournament. Yes terday she smothered Mrs. Peggy Michell of England GO, 6-1.

 The California marvel and Mrs. Mallory have met often. but Helen has held the Indian sign over the older woman since 1923 when she dethroned her in two quick sets in the final of the national champion ship tournament.
 In the other semi final today Hei- en Jacobs, Americas second rank ing star, faced one of the hardes tests of her career to defeat Mrs. Phoebe Watson of England. who de- feated Miss Jacobs in the Wightman cup play last week.
 Although easily able to defeat Mary Greet, the Kansas City youns- ster, yesterday. Miss Jacobs has been handicapped during the tour nament with a strained ligament in her back. Mrs. Watson also has Had hef lapSeS, but Tn general her play has been sound. Yesterday she defeated Miss Edith Cross of San Francisco after losing the first set.
 In the doubles only one Americar T com bination remains, that of Mrs. Anna Harper and Miss Cross, run ners-up last year. Mrs. Watson and Mrs. Peggy Saunders Michell form one of the strong British combina- tons which are threatening to bring about an All-Englsh final, and Mrs. Phyllis Covell and Mrs. Dorothy Shepherd-Barron the other. The Anglo-Amerlcan team of Helen Ja- cobs and Betty Nuthall. holds the fourth semi-final berth, and faced Mrs. Watson and Mrs. Michel, the English champions, today while Mrs. Harper and Miss Cross opposed the second British pair.
