tumbled to the twin switch. They
weighed at the ring side after
that.
There were the Perlic twins.
They came to New York for their
first ring spudge. They were
darned good looking kids. I re-
member their first Garden intro
duction. They wore identical
leather jackets, snappy French
berets cooked jauntily on the side
of their well-turned heads. They
did a curtesy in natty tune-and-
time and bowed away, they came
back later in fighting tack and
they could fight! Strangely
enough they fought in replica.
Quite the most picturesque Of all
the twin fighters.

T|LDEN ANGLING
FOR JACOBS

NEW YORK, Aug. 15.-How
the rumors are flying, now that
Bill O'Brien, front man for Big
Bill Tilden, has been seen din
ing with Helen Jacobs in the
Algonquin Hotel!
It is no secret that Tilden
hopes to add two high-ranking
women players to his professional
troupe. Miss Jacobs is one of
them, and Betty Nuthall is the
other. According to what could
be cleaned from an unofficial
source, however. Miss Jacobs de-
mands more money than Tilden
could pay and still retain profit
for himself.
If Ellsworth Vines does decide
to hook up with Tilden at the
end of this season he will not
receive a 100000 guarantee or
anything like it. His immediate
cash profit would be exactly
$4,000, with a percentage of the
gate to follow.
Henri Cochet, comes word from
Paris, will not work in America
or with Americans until 1885 if
he joins the pro swim. He is
planning a tour with Martin
Plaa, renowned European player,
that would consume most of next
year.
The Washington times., 1933-08-15

There were instances, Of course,
where the younger brother was
better or at least on a parity with
the old warrior, I think, for in
stance, that Mike (Twin) Sulli-
van was just as capable a fighter
as Jack. In my opinion, Jimmy
Gardner, though a much lighter
man than George, was quite as
formidable a warrior.
Sullivan Twins
Like the SullivanS, Mike and
Jack, twins have come along and
written interesting pages in box
ing's big book. Mike Twin was
a bit lighter than Jack, who
fought as a middle. Mike fought
the immortal Stanley Ketchel and
was knocked out. Jack, in a rage,
Immediately challenged Ketchel
with the warning:
I'll get even. Nobody can go
around knocking out my twin
brother!"
Ketchel knocked out Jack and
from that day on the Michigan
assassin began to assassinate on
the ''big time"
To my mind, quite the most
captivating story Of twin fighters
was the one concerning the Krel-
ing brothers, who used to fight in
Alex Greggain's little club in Sixth
Street, San Francisco.
Greggain's place was an incuba-
tor for champions. Abe Attell
began there. Jimmy Britt, JEFF
fries, Al Neill, frankie Neil and
many others go their first en-
brace from old Dame Fame in
that quaint cauliflower shop. I
started to say something of those
Kreling brothers. They were
twins but nature had tricked
them. She made one a 1876
FOUNDER and the other a light
weight at 1873.
Heavier Twin K. o. Artist
The lighter boy would be
matched to fight at 1913. He
would weigh in all spic and span
as would his opponent. Came the
fight. The heavier broUher. at
1873, would come into the ring to
take the tighter twins place, no.

WESTROPE

CHICAGO, Aug. 15.-Once
again the race track followers
were singing the praises today OF
Jockey Jack Westrope, who ran
his total of victories for 1888 up
to 1T yesterday at Hawthorne
with five winners to take tlrm
hold on first place honors.
Back in June Westrope rode
five winers past the judges stand
in , afternoon at Washington
Park. Westrope's closest rival
among the leading American
Jockeys is H. Humphreys with 125
winners.
After winning the first and sec
ond races astride Chagrin and
Doris Jean, respectively, Westrope
dropped out of the money in the
third. Two Of Col. E. r. Brad
ley's charges, Bitty-Bit and Broad
Meadows, gave him victories IN
the fourth and fifth. Westrope
then rode Dusky Devil to victory
in the Glendale purse at a mile
and a sixteenth.

VINES ANXIOUS
To GAIN BOWL

NEWPORT, R. l., Aug. IS.
Postponed for a day because Of
heavy rain, the Newport Casino
tennis tournament will ge under
way today, the principal task
being to cut down the list Of 80
competitors.
Ellsworth Vines, the star
among 16 Of the first II ranking
players in the United States, will
not only defend his title, but will
seek to clinch the current Casino
bowl.
He has two legs on the trophy,
which was inaugurated with the
victory of William T. Big Bill''
Tilden. in 1880. His chief COM
petitor was Wilmer Allison, of
Austin, Tex, runner-up last year.
It is Vines first appearance in
singles play since he collapsed on
the court against Fred Perry at
Wimbledon. Perry is at New.
port, but the possibility that he
and Vines would settle their
court duel here was eliminated
when the British ace announced
he would confine his activities
to the doubles.

22-YEAR-OLD
RECORD
"The glory dies not and the
grief is past"

BAACA 10 pdSts
Jimmy Foxx may not keep Q
diary and he may not care for
little jottings from the poets,
but if he happens to be that
kind Of a guy, ne undoubtedly
trotted out the little red book
today and penned the above.
For the man they say Connie
Mack might, for proper induce
ment, sell down the river, at
tached himself more closely than
ever to Philadelphia fans with a
remarkable performance yester-
day against the Cleveland In
dians. He connected for a homer,
triple, double and single to drive
in nine runs, constituting a new
American League record.
OF course, Mr.. Mack may take
the slant that the feat Of his
promising first baseman makes
him all the more attractive as q
buy, but probably in the end
sanity will prevail and Mr.. Mack
will let his great hitter hang
around a while longer, no mat
ter how badly some other club
might need him.
New Record
Jimmy's outburst topped the
old American League mark made
by Roy Hartzell, of the New
York Yankees, in 1911 and since
equalled by Harry Heilman Lou
Gehrig, Earl Averill and Carl
Reynolds. FoxX is still three short
of the major league record es-
tablished by Jim Mottomley, Of
the st. Louis Cards, in 1924.
Here's the action in Foxx's rec
ord-smashing performance:
First inning-Tripled with Cra-
mer and Cochrane on base.
Second inning-Hit homer with
Williams, Mahaffey and Cramer
scoring ahead Of him.
Fourth Inning-Doubled with
Cochrane on second.
Sixth Inning-Singled to cen
ter to score McNair and Cramer.
The homer was No. 35 for
Jimmy, placing him nine ring
around-the-rosies ahead Of the
esteemed Babe Ruth.
Mahaffey Holds Them
While FoXx was pushing the
ball around, Roy Mahaffey found
little trouble from the Cleveland
batters, allowing them only
seven safeties, and the AS rolled
away the game, II to S.
In the only other game played
in either league yesterday, De"
troit scored four runs in the
seventh inning and won, 6 to S.
from Boston's Red SoX. Eiden
Auker, brought up from Beau
mont, Tex, made his debut with
Detroit as starting hurler, but
faded out after three innings as
the Bostonians nicked him for
seven hits. Fischer and Hog
,-ett finished. Boston also used
three hurlers, Pipgras retiring in
favor of Brown in the seventh
and Brown giving way to Welch
when he proved no better than
Pipgras.
