Figure She Is Cinch
To Win U. S. Honors;
Hunt Plays Parker
BY GAYLE TALBOT,
Ascocio tod presc CportS NNriier

NEW YORK, Sept 13.-Alice Mar
ble's vast superiority over the best
of the other tennis girls has knocked
about all the interest out of the
Ladies League in the national
championships, now in the seventh
day at Forest Hills.
If you don't read much about the
girls, that's the reason. The pretty
Los Angeles bomber is considered
a mortal cinch to win here as easily
as she won at Wimbledon. It's only
a question, really, of whether Helen
Jacobs or Kay Stammers will be
offered up as the sacrifice in the
final.
Think Her Best Ever.
Some of the critics who have been
watching them all for upward of 10
years think that Alice, in her pres
ent form, could have trimmed Sus-
anne Lenglen or Helen Wills Moody
in their prime. Certainly, they say,
she comes nearer having a mans
game than either of them-the hard,
kicking service; the deep, smoking
ground strokes, and the deadly over
head kill"
No one any longer bets whether
Alice will win, but only on how
many points her opponents will get.
In her Go, GO victory over Betty
Nuthall yesterday, for instance, the
British girl, former champion here,
won only six points. Five of them
were on Miss Marbles errors.
So that's why all the interest is
wrapped up in the mems division,
where there is no real standout since
Don Bulge turned pro. Bobby Riggs,
the Wimbledon champion, and
Adrian Quist of Australia are about
equal favorites to win.
Hunt Tackles Parker.
Today's first order of business was
the continuation of the match be-
tween Harry Hopman of Australia
and Bryan Grant, jr., of Atlanta,
halted by darkness last night after
three sets. Hopman won the first
two. IS, IS. but Bitsy made a
heroic comeback to capture the third
after trailing, 0-5.
Other antagonists today were
frankie Parker of Beverly Hills VS.
Gilbert Hunt, jr., of Washington, D.
c.; Gardner Mulloy of Miami VS..
Jack Bromwich of Australia: Elwood
Cooke of Portland, Greg, VS.. Welby
Van Horn of Los Angeles, and Ardian
Quist Of Australia VS.. Wayne Sabin
of Portland.
Women's matches paired Helen
Bernhard of New York against Va
lerie Scott OF England; Katherine

Miller 10 Be Named
Prexy al Closing
N. B. A. Meeting
Dempsey Urges New York,
Others to Join, Body
In Proisine 1t

Election of Heinie Miller, secretary
of the District Boxing Commission,
as president and the hopping up of
minor matters we're to occupy the
National Boxing Associations time
today as it convened for the third
and final session of its annual con-
vention.
Miller's elevation to the chief ex-
ecutive position was mere formal
ity, as officers of the association ad-
vance regularly in order after win
ming their first vice presidential
post. The organization also voted
to hold its 1910 convention in Mil
waukee, and will entertain a motion
to establish permanent headquar-
tiers in this city.
Jack Strong for N. B. A.
Delegates last night heard Jack
Dempsey eulogized in flowing and
fanciful phrases at their annual
banquet, and then listened as Demp-
sey eulogized the N. B. A. and urged
all commissions beyond the pale to
get religion and join up. He spe-
officially referred to the need of New
Yorks membership, and called on
the Empire State to give boxing a
solid front against the elements
that would destroy it."
Moving to clarity muddled situa-
lions in the f1yweight and bantam
weight ranks, the association voted
to recognize as 112-pound champion
the winner of a 15-round bout be-
tween Speedy Dado of this country
and Enrico Urbinati of Italy. Dado
gets the title automatically if Ur-
binati refuses to box him within 90
days.
EScObar Tied to Fight.
In the case of SiXto Escobar, nom
fighting champion of the 118-
Founders, it was decided to give him
until october to sign for bout
with Challenger George Pace or re-
linquish his title.
The association also condemned
gambling at bouts, and in the case
of men failing to answer the bell
for a round, ruled that his opponent
should be awarded a technical
knockout for the round the loser
fails to start.

Sand|ot Title Struggle
Wakes Hotter With
Eight Teams Left
Heurichs Stick in Fight
With 9th-Inning Rally
That Whips Dayton

With eight clubs remaining In the
title scrap, the National Amateur
Baseball Federation tourney today
narrowed into a bitter battle, with
three more clubs slated to drop from
the championship picture by sunset.
BY dusk either Birmingham or
Detroit's defending champion was
to be installed a favorite. since the
winner would be undefeated and the
remaining four teams would have
absorbed a defeat each. Two defeats
eliminate a team.
Heurichs Still In 1t.
Birmingham was to bank on Ma
sabe Habshey, youthful Syrian who
famed 38 batters in his last three
home town appearances. while De-
troit was to counter with Orville
Reever or Bill OMalley. The game
on the East Ellipse diamond was to
get under way at pm
Washington's Heurich Brewers,
still swinging for the crown by vir-
tue of a ninth-inning rally which
produced three runs and 5-4 vic
tory over Dayton (Ohio) Frigidaires
yesterday, were to tangle with the
Killian Celtics of Barberton, Ohio,
at South Ellipse at 3.
Other 3 o'clock games were to
pit Jefferson County, Pa. against
Scenic Gardens of Dearborn, Mich,
on North Ellipse and Springfield,
Mass. against the SWissvale Club
of Pittsburgh on West Ellipse.
Hot After Smuggling Title.
Bidding for the tourney smuggling
title is rangy, blond Adam Shemuha,
Jefferson County outfielder, who has
collected hits in Is trips to the
plate for a .444 average In games
at home he averaged better than
400 for more than so games.
Only 10, Adam collected two of
his clubs six safeties as Detroit
registered 40 victory over Jeffer-
son. Other games saw Springfield
eliminate the highly regarded Cleve-
land Rosenblooms, 5-4; Dearborn
trounce Cumberland, 1879; Birming-
ham spank Barberton, 81, and
Pittsburgh trim Fort Wayne, Ind,
1916.
Heurich reduced Dayton's lead to
4-3 with one out in the ninth and
Huck Stahl then won the game with
a single which scored Dick Knight
and Pepco Barry. Eddie Collif1owcr
was to hurl for Heurich today.

CHAMPAIGN, ILL.,, Sept. 13-
What is a college football game

University of Illinois was con-
fronted with that problem after

1t answered it yesterday by trans
ferring to Chicago the Chicago-Il-

Nov. Is at Champaign.
University officials agreed the new
holiday date, November %, and The
accompanying university vacation
period would leave the campus viz

Cases Two Errors Hurt.
The umpires-Kolls, Eddie Rom
mel and Cal Hubbard--checked with
President Harridge after the game
and Wills answer was to replay the
game. This necessitated the sched-
uling of a double header today be-
cause it is the last time the Mats
were to see the White Sox this year.
Had it not been for two success
sive errors by Outfelder George Case
the Mats might have won yesterdays
game. anyway. They held 81 lead
going into the eighth but Alexandra
Carrasquel who did a creditable
nine-hit job, gave up single to Lee
right off the bat and he was in
trouble Bejma's sacrifice showed
Lee up a notch and from there
Thornton took third on Hank Stein
bacher's infield out.
Then Mike Kreevich beat out a
slow roller to Vernon, allowing Lee
to score, and Rip Radcliff shot a
fly to Case, who muffed one
handed catch for an error. Recov-
erlng the ball, George threw poorly
to the infield Che has bad ARM ),
and Kreevich scored from first base
with the winning run. At least 1t
was the winning run until Mr.. Har-
ridge swung into action.
So the Mats final home stand of
the season doesn't start until today,
when they were to play the Sox in
a double header. And, as was re-
marked before, the benefits of the
replay are dubious.
Evans to See Action.
More than likely the rookie who
will see the most action during the
remainder of the season is catcher
named Alfred Evans, up from Char
lotte. Despite contradictory reports
from Charlotte and despite Evans

Mr.. Wilfrid Peyton. wrapped in
a blanket on the floor Of the mu-

slept. He was awakened by a
heavy seraping sound as Of some
bulky object dragging itself across
the floor. For a moment he lay
with his eyes closed, sleep still
bewildering his senses. Then ne
opened his eyes. Above him LOOM
ed a great dark shape. an indis-
tinct towering mass that seemed
TO creep slowly nearer.
Wilfrid sat bolt upright, the hair
rising on his head and cold per-
spiration oozing from every pore
in his body. He opened his mouth
but no sound came. save a stran-
gled and Intellectual gurgle. And
then something occurred that gave
him back his vocal powers. The
top Of the dark shape lighted sud
denly. hideously. And Wilfrid,
nerveless and chattering, saw
bending over him in the darkness
a horrible face whose eyes were
deathlike hollows and whose long
Jaw widened in a terrible. gloating
grin over snaggly, uneven teeth.
The howl that escaped Mr.. Will
frid Peyton would have been audi
bic over the hosts of Bedlam. For
one awful second he remained
rooted to the floor. Then, fear
stabbing his limbs to action, he
scrambled to his feet. As he did
so. his hand came in contact with
something hard. 1t was the han
die of his banjo and he seized 1t
gratefully. Leaping up. he swung
the banjo furlously at that grin
ming thing. There was splinter
ing crash and the lights went out
suddenly, leaving the museum in
pitch blackness. And Wilfrid de-
parted from that place, bowling
over an imprudent skeleton that
happened to be lurking in the
region of the doorway.

Although the design has not

Rectangular in shape, the

The husky young pitcher Is

To the left OF this design there
are crossed bats with the glove

THERE'S no telling where
l. the current wave Of matri-
mony that is sweeping Holly
wood will stop. Practically all
of the movie colony's famous
romances either have landed
their participants at the altar
or will do so soon.
OF course, Douglas Fairbanks Jr.
rather startled the general public
with his selection of a bride; the
charming Mrs. Mary Hartford was
what would be called, in racing
circles, a dark horse.
When Kate Smith celebrated her
ninth anniversary as radio star
she sang the four songs that she
presented on her initial broadcast:
II Surrender, Dear" "By the River
st. Marie" "Dream Little Dream
of Me-" and "Please Don't Talk
About Me When I'm Cone" When
making up her program for her first
broadcast she put in that last num-
Der because she felt none too sure
that she'd be a success on the air.
