Maybe Connie Mack and his pitchers,
Bender, Bush, Plank and Shawkey,
hadn't heard of Gowdy before that
series, but after the AS, world cham
pions of the previous year, had been
beaten in four straight games, they
lowed as how they had heard tell of
Mr.. Gowdy, plenty!
Now this same Henry Gowdy,
called 'Hankus Pankus," or Just
"Old Hank" is still catching for the
Braves, after a Sojourn with the
Giants and others clubs, and he's
still able to do right well, thank you,
at the tender age of 40.
His single in a game with the
Giants not so long ago was the only
hit off Carl Hubbell in seven per-
fectly pitched innings. Gowdy was
the first major league player to en-
list in the Infantry during the war.
Like old wine, he seems to improve
with age.
Another veteran catcher, who is
not as active as Gowdy but older,
is Grover Cleveland Hartley, now
acting as coach and catcher with
the Cleveland Indians. He has seen
many years of service with the clubs
of both major leagues. There are
few smarter handlers of young
pitchers than old Grover, and he
sure knows the weaknesses of the
various American League batters.
Last year he acted as pinch hitter
for the Indians, and twice in a week
his potent bat proved the undoing
OF the two league leaders (Yanks,
August 13, and AS, August 10. His
single to center that beat the Yanks.
was the second time in IA years
that he had hit a ball anywhere
but to left field. On June IL last it
was announced that he would do
some more catching, as Luke Sewell
had been injured You can't keep
a good man down!

START PLAY TODAY
FOR BRITISH TITLES
Mrs. Moody Overwhelmingly
Favored-TWo Strong
Rivals Withdraw.

BY the Associated Press.
w WIMBLEDON, England,
AN/ June 23.-The British
v v tennis championships,
opening today, revolve
around two American stars, Big
Bill Tilden and Helen Wills Moody.
Mrs. Moody dominates the women's
singles field of 96 just as thoroughly as
Suzanne Lenglen used to. Tildens
championship performances will be
watched with widespread general in
terest as result of the tall Americans
spectacular sweep through continental
Europe's Spring tournaments.
Mrs. Moody, already heavy favorite
to win the singles title for the fourth
straight year, became an overwhelming
choice with the withdrawal of two of
her strongest rivals, Mrs. Phoebe Wat
son, who took five straight games from
Queen Helen in the Wightman Cup
matches, and Senorita Ella De Alvarez.
Both were forced to scratch their en-
tries on doctors orders. An expert
analysis of the draw forecasts a final
round meeting again between Mrs.
Moody and Helen Jacobs.
Favored in Doubles, Too.
Mrs Moody also is favored to win the
womens doubles title with Elizabeth
Ryan, although this task may we'll prove
| to be much more difficult than Mrs
Moody will face in the singles.
In the mems singles, Tilden is Sec
ond choice only to Henri Cochet of
France, who beat Big Bill in the finals
of the French hard court champion
ships recently. The United States is
heavily represented in the mems singles
with helping hand for Tilden from
George Lott, John Doeg, Wilmer Alli-
son, John Van Ryn, Gregory Mangin
and Eugene McAuliffe.
Three Fast Youngsters.
Three youngsters will bolster Amer
ica's hopes in the women's singles with
Sarah and Mianne Palfrey of Boston
and Mary Greet of Kansas ready to aid
the two Helens from Berkeley, Calf.
Two American combinations, Lott
Doeg and Van Ryn-Allison, are seeded
at the top in the mems doubles, and
Tilden and his German partner, Cecilie
| Aussem, head the seeded list for the
/ mixed doubles.
The opening days. schedule was de-
voted to cutting down the mems singles
