VINES WINS
SEM|-F|NAL

WIMBLEDON, Eng, July 5. =
Ellsworth Vines of California, de-
Tending champion, reached the fl
nal round of the classic Wimbledon
tennis tournament today with a
6-2, 6-8, 6-3, 6-1 victory over Henri
Cochet of France.
Vines will meet Jack Crawford,
Australian ace, for che champion
ship. Crawford defeated Jiro Satoh
of Japan 6-3, Ga, 2-6, Ga in the
other semi-final.
Lured by the prospect of bat
tie between these two recognized
masters of the game the greatest
crowd in Wimbledon't history was
in the stands.
Vines victory marked his third
successive win over Cochet within
a year and was taken by many ex-
perts to mean that the United
States was certain to lift the Davis
cup from France late in the month.
The match was played in a tense
atmosphere. Both men repeatedly
appealed to the umpire to ask the
crowd to remain silent.
Vines was the same devastating
player who swept Cochet aside in
straight sets in the American ma
tions at Forest Hills last year. His
first service ball hammered across
the net like a bullet and his drives,
particularly his cross court ones
frequently caught the Frenchman
flat footed.
Cochet lifted his game at the
start of the second set, and with
peculiar twisting service landing
inside, ran up a So lead. But just
when it seemed he must drop the
set the American regained control
of his shots. In full stride, now
the American champion passed him
with blasts that Cochet could not
lay racquet upon.
In the third set Vines sacrificed
accuracy for power and although
he out served the Frenchman, he
made entirely too many errors.

BASEBALL To
Be RESUMED

With the holidays out of the way
the night ball league will resume
its schedule at Wilson field tonight
when the Shirer Drug and Valley
Laundry teams meet.
According to Old Man Dope the
Druggists are favorites to win to-
night as the Laundrymen have not
won a game as yet this season and
the Shirer team has won one and
lost one. But anything is apt to
happen and supporters of the
Laundry team will be out to see
their favorites trip up Johnny
Kepleys outfit.
Tomorrow night brings the Stu
debakers. first half champs, and
the Golden Staters, present lead
ers. together in a game that ought
to be a dandy.
Both games will start at 8 o.
clock.

NEW YORK, July Many
baseball observers believe the New
York Yankees hopes for another
American league pennant this sea-
son fizzled out yesterday when they
lost both ends of holiday double
header at their home stadium to
the leading Washington Senators.
Rated the strongest home team
in the majors and playing for su-
premacy in their circuit, the Yanks
were expected to demonstrate for
chilly that 13 defeats in 27 games
on the road were due merely to
pitching weakness while travelling.
Washington was only half a
game ahead before the twin bill,
but the Yanks failed to come
through in this crisis under the
most favorable conditions, when
the largest crowd of the ma jor
league season, 1885 home fans,
was cheering them on. Both games
we're close; 6 to in 10 innings and
to 2, but that has no effect on
the standing, which now shows the
Senators two and a half games
ahead
This big baseball day on which
I'll 1865 fans attended eight double
headers throughout the leagues,
was the saddest Fourth of July in
years for New York fans because
each of the three metropolitan
teams lost two games: Yankees,
Giants and Brooklyn Dodgers.
Washington beat New York in
the opener when Heinie Manush
came home with the winning run
in the 10th on Joe Cronins single.
The Senators won the night cap
after collecting eight hits off Van
Alta and Brennan. Babe Ruth
drove out his 18th homer in the
ninth.
Athletics Drop Two
Philadelphia lost to Boston IA to
4, when their own eight errors al
lowed nine unearned runs in the
opener. They lost the second nine
to one, when the Red sox pounded
Earnshaw and Freitas for Is hits.
Cleveland and Chicago divided a

NEW YORK. July 5. - They re
betting II to 10 along the boule-
wards of Paris these days that the
United States will lift the Davis
cup from France this year. Some
time today, when Henry Ellsworth
Vines of California and Henri
Cochet of France finish their duel
IN the semi-final round of the
classic tournament at Wimbledon,
we shall know whether these odds
are justified.
Vines and Cochet are the Davis
cup teams of their respective coun-
tries. Take Vines from our side
and we wouldn t even reach the
challenge round. Remove Cochet
from the French lineup and any
of a half dozen nations could dip
the tri-color.
If Vines licks Cochet today he II
lick him in the stade Roland Gar
ros later in the month. We say
this because defeat for Cochet on
Wimbledon s center court today
will mark the third successive time
within a year he has bowed to
Vines. The first occasion was the
final cup match last year. The
second was at Forest Hills in the
finals of the nationals. Another
trouncing and Cochet must lose his
confidence, and without that icy
Savoir faire, that superb indiffer-
ence to an opponent S ability, the
Frenchman becomes just another
tennis player.
Sure of himself Cochet is un-
beatable. But once his confidence
is shaken his racquet ceases to pour
forth that torrent of magical shots.
This was proved in his match with
Vines at Forest Hills last Septem-
Der. Cochet started bravely that
day, but as the Californian, probably
playing the finest game he'll ever
show. took his best shots and slam
med them back in his face, the
Frenchman first grew panicky and
then went completely to pieces. At
the end he was playing like a No.
II man.
May Turn Pro
Should he whip Vines today-and
we believe he's an even money bet
-Cochet will be tough in the cup
play. For he II be fortified by the
knowledge that he turned back
Vines when that young man, with
his title at stake, was giving all
he had.
Vines, by the way, will be play
ing for something more substantial
than a silver bowl and mess of
glory. when he takes the court
against Cochet. The outcome of the
match stands to have direct bear
ing on his future. now that he is
openly looking around for the best
offer to turn professional Shorn
of his Wimbledon title he won't
be so attractive as a drawing card.
Whether this will affect his play
We don I know. Personally. it
would make us little more skilled
than usual. What we mean is, our
backhand, with only cup at

CHICAGO. July 5. - Baseball S
greatest players, picked by half a
million fans, were on their way to
Chicago today to participate in the
"game of the century, tomorrow
at Cimiskey Park.
It is the first time in the 81
years of organized baseball history
that picked teams from the Nation
al and American Leagues have
been recruited for an interleague
contest in mid-season.
Only the limited seating capacity
of Comiskey Park prevents the
largest crowd in baseball history
from seeing the game. All $4,000
seats were sold days ago, with an
other 100000 applications turned
back. Such has been the drawing
power of the game that tickets
have been sold to fans in 46 of
the 4S states.
Two of the most colorful figures
in baseball-Connie Mack and John
j. McGraw-will be in the back
ground directing this constellation
of stars which includes the most
famous players of the past 20 years.
In the American League lineup
will be Babe Ruth. still swinging
his dangerous mace after 19 years
of service; Al Simmons, ranked by
many as baseball's best all-around
player; Jimmy FoXx and Lou Geh-
rig, successors to Ruth as the
games most powerful sluggers;
Lefty Grove, king of Southpaws,
and Oral Hildenbrand, the new
pitching phenomena.
Arrayed against the American

be Frankie Frisch, king-pin of sec
ond basemen after Is years in the
harness; Chuck Klein, the Nation
