NEW YORK, Aug. "a. U.P)-Now

of 10 consecutive games has been
broken Lefty Groves only hope for
an all time pitching record this
season is TO better the high per-
centage mark of .872 established
by Joe Wood of Boston in 1912 with
81 victories and defeats.
Grove equalled one of Woods
records with his Is game winning
streak but his hope of lettering
that record and going on to equal
the National League mark of le
straight was shattered when he was
defeated l to 0 by Dick Coffman
and the St. Louis Browns.
Grove was not the fault of the
defeat, however. He allowed only
u hits and would have had a shut
cut but for a misjudged fly which
went for a double and drove in the
only run of the game. Groves
mates also failed him at bat, max
ing only three hits off Coffman
and experiencing their first shut
out of the year The defeat was
Groves third of the season and
brought his average down to 1893
with 25 victories and three defeats.

Coffmans victory over Grove
made him a hero in st. Louis but
he is forced TO share honorS with
Jim Bottomley, Cardinals first
baseman, whose 18th inning home
run gave the ST Louis National

Boston in the second game OF
doubleheader. The game was

SUPREMACY OF
mrs. MOODY IS
BEYOND DISPUTE

FOREST HILLS. a.. I. Aug. "a
(U.P)-MrS. Helen Wills Moody held
the national women'S tennis singles
championship today. Tor the sew
enth time IN the last nine years.
The coast flash won the title again
yesterday. taking Just "a minutes to
win from Mrs. Eileen Bennett Whit
tingstan. Of Great Britain. Cd. 6l
The match was one sided through
out. TheIe never was a moment
that even the yeriest OF tennis ty-
ro's could not have told that Mrs
Moody was . cinch 10 win. The
Californian. who has not lost q set
at tennis since 1926. took it easy
in the first match and at one point
the game was tied at 1 all. but even
then il was apparent Mrs. Moody
wasn't trying.
II is well for the late-comerS that
the champion did not see fit to
move into action until after the
first two games OF the second set.
For had Mrs Moody played her
game from the start. those late
corners probably would have seen
nothing.
Mrs. Moody. had she seen fit,
might just as well have won the
opening set in 10 minutes, the
length of time she required 70 cap
ture the second.
The first two games Of the second
set furnished no indication OF the
rout that was TO follow. Mrs. Moody.
still taking things in stride, won the
first game Of her own service. Mrs.
Whittingstall retaliated by taking
her own delivery to tie the count.
British Woman Baffled
Then came the storm. Mrs. Whit
tingstan, who only a minute before
had been holding her own. was able
to score but eight more points dur
ing the mex. five games.
During this tremendous drive
down the home stretch. 50 TO speak.
Mrs. Moody did everything and did
it TO perfection. When Mrs. Whit
tingstall came to the net Queen
Helen left her standing there fan
ming the air with whistling ana IN
cannily accurate forehand and back
hand shots down the side lines.
When the British girl realized that
coming to the net was fatal and
stayed at the base line, Mrs. Moody
would lure her out of position and
then end the exchange, sometimes
with a hard placement, sometimes
with tantalzing drop shot just
over the net.
Most Of the spectacular work was
furnished by Mrs. Whittingstall.
who, just as in her surprising VIC
tories over Miss Helen Jacobs and
Miss Betty Nuthall, spent a great
deal of her time at the net Mrs.
Moody did not give the British girl
as many opportunities for kills" IS

Mrs. Whittingstall did manage TO
get her racket on the ball she usual

Why Sterling Used the
Veto Knife

IT Is matter Of record that Gov. Ross S. Sterling re-
peatedly warned Texas lawmakers during the regular
session that the appropriations made by the legisla-
tive body would be trimmed to fit the revenue in
sight. He said il, time and again, and he said it with
a polite bark Of his words. Well. the expected happen
ed. He cut the appropriation bills TO fit the revenue
in sight. He kept his word. He did not dodge the is
sue. He shouldered the responsibility. His reasons for
a vigorous use of the pruning knife. should be placed
In the record. he said:
TT has required exceeding fortitude on the part Of
the executive to veto the many items that have been
stricken out OF the educational appropriation bill. /
AM FOR OF TEXAS YOUTH yet.
considering the states financial condition and the
nationwide depression I could not conscientiously APP
prove all OF these appropriation bills as passed by the
legislature. creating a deficit In the state treasury OF
from four to six millions Of dollars.
HOWEVER. 1T MUST BE BORNE IN MIND
THAT II DOLLA NOW HAS A PURCHASING
POWER OF Is TO 10 n MORE THAN 1T HAD

In cutting out all summer schools for the latter
year Of the biennium I had In mind that the legisla-
ture will be in session in January Of 1881, in time to
make such provisions for the summer schools for
that year as may be deemed advisable"
SO that's that. Lawmakers failed to tap new sources
of revenue. Gov. Sterling kept his word. He trimmed
the appropriations to keep within the revenue in
sight.
Gov. Sterling Is a business man. He mounted the
ladder from its lowest rung to the top. As for educa-
ton and the higher educational institutions he had
a message to send to the people in defense Of the
scientific use OF the veto power. II is worth while.
Read IL:

institutions are in need Of more buildings and facili-
ties; but I am OF the opinion IL would be very poor

million dollars for new buildings at this time. The
only new buildings approved in any Of the bills were
those for eleenosynary institutions and I approved
