NEW YORK. Sept. 6-Ever hear
OF Jesse Tannehill? It's safe bet
that few. if any. of the modern
baseball fans recall the name.
Yet Tannehill was great major
league pitcher. He ranked on a
par with such StalWartS as Amos
Rusie, Kid Nichols, Clark Griffith,
Ed Walsh. Jack Chesbrp, Rube
Waddell and others in the years
between 1895 and 1910.
Tannehill was little fellow as
far as pitchers go-only feet 10
He couldn't fog the ball through
like Rusie and Cy Young and Wal
ter johnson. But there were few
pitchers more clever on the mound
than this native Of Dayton. KY.
A master of the slow ball ano
possessor of many variations o1

through at Ga today.
In contrast to the first semi
finals, in which Mulloy had only
an edge in two Of the three sets,
Sedgman was in control Of his
match all the way. Some Of the
rallies between the two Austral-
ians produced the kind Of tennis
that drew full-voiced cheers from
the capacity crowd. But there
never was any doubt about the
outcome.
Mulloy won his match in the
long first set. where Richardson
reached set point three times in
the 10th game and twice in the
18th, but couldn't put over the
winning shot Mulloy finally broke
through Hams service in the 18th
to take the set.
That seemed to do something
to Richardson's confidence and
Mulloy raced through the second
set at love in 18 minutes. But Ham
still wasn't ready to give up.
After Mulloy got the edge on a
service break in the third set,
Richardson came back at him and
again reached set point in the
18th game. Mulloy. fighting off
WEAKNESS and pacing himself
carefully to avoid errors, stood of
that threat and, when he found
an opening. he ran the youngster
ragged with well-placed lobs ano
sideline drives to take the two
deciding games.

"I won't win any popularity con.

beginning next Sunday" the new
coach said. The Redskins play
Green Bay in their fourth pre-
season test on that day, and after
three straight defeats they car

Not Another Waterfield.
Lambeau, who took over the
helm from Dick Todd after the
Redskins lost to San Francisco
and Los Angeles, said he has been
an admirer of Gilmer. He thinks
the former Alabama halfback can
handle spot assignments on de-
fense as we'll as run the team. but
Gilmer's big job from now on will
be on offense.

Lambeau is not satisfied with
LeBaron's quarterbacking. but moi
with Eddie, personally.
Its unfair to put the kid al

said. "He's bound to make mis-
takes, but right now we can't
afford them. Eddie's going to be
all right-although there are
some things he can't do-and he'll
be better quarterback working
with Gilmer."
No Opposition by Gilmer.
Lambeau pointed out that II
would be foolish to waste all the
time the Redskins have spent
grooming Gilmer for the job by
not using him this year. If he
expected any opposition from
George Marshall, owner of the
Redskins and a strong LeBaron
supporter, he didn't get it, Curly
said. Marshall is for any changes
