"Big Bill** Tilden reamed home
the other day after a long stay In
Europe, where he won the world's
*ard court tennis title in Franc*,
and the. English singles championship
for the second time in two!
years.
Mr. Tilden says tennis has grown
wonderfully in favor in FranceBoys
and girls are keen for the
game everywhere, it will be only
* matter of a short time before
France will be turning out a lot ot
first-class stars. Tennis is a frame
peculiarly suited to the dashing
French spirit. Tilden thinks.
While we're mentioning Frencn
tt*nnis I may say that all the French
writers and sportsmen who came
here to see Carpentier box were
enthusiastic in describing the tennis
playing ability of Mile. Suzanne
I.englen. who is so famous for her
tennis court victories in Europe
that she is called "the l^engien."
Mile. Lenglen, they said, is as
great an athlete as any man. She
has beaten all the best woman players
abroad so decisively that sne
is in a class all by herself. She
wins by astounding scores. The
Frenchmen ?ay she never tires, and
that her strength of arm is more
like a man's than a woman's. Also
she has a certain prim determination
to win that makes h?*" invincible.
Tilden has been playing a lot
of tennis this year, and he intends
to take ? good rest before competing
In the Davis Cup matches and the
National Championships tn September.
He has been in constant tralnng
since May. 1520. Having madttwo
victorious tours through Euand
one , through Australia,
pB'ins phenomenal tennis every^nfere.
he feels entitled to a lav W
ha Caa Tellf
'^apt. Mallet thinks Dempsey
would have gone down if Carpenhad
been able to fight with the
four-ounce gloves he is accustomed
to
"That was the thing 1 overlooked
in the match-making." says the captain.
"I never would have sanctioned
putting Georges into the ring
.with Dempsey with eight-ounce
gloves on. and the fight never woum
have gone to New Jersey If I'd
known in time that Xew Jersey law
required eight-ounce gloves.
"With four-ounce gloves the advantage
would have been with the
.Tighter man. and 1 don't think even
l>e?nps*v could have taken Georges'
ight on the chin and stayed on his
feet
It was the first time Georges
kvr hit anyone flush on the chin
without dropping him Georges
rnuld and did hit Dempsej- on the
point of the chin. With four-ounce
cloves there might have been a different
story. Not wishing to detraci
Ln.-any way from Dempsey's glory,
of course. He is a magnificent box*r
and a real champion."
This will be the point on which
any future match between Dempse)
and Carpentier will be made. J.
they ever meet again. In England.
-?ar instance, four-ounce gloves will
be used
But even Dempsey's punches
might have more sting with a fourounce
glove on his husky mitt.
Ia Skin-tlgfct Gloves.
When l?ndon prize ring rules
w<*re waning many fights were
fought with skin-tight gloves, and
boxers learned that a harder blow
ould be struck with a well-covered
hand than with the bare fist. Not
such a damaging blow, of course,
for the thicker the glove the Tess
it would cut the skin but a more
stunning blow When Jim Corbett
fought Joe Choynski on a barge in
San Francisco Bay Tt was found
that only one pair of four-ounce
gloves had been provided. Someone
offered a pair of ordinary driving
gloves. Corbett took the padded
gloves and Choynski the driving
gloves. w;hich were not padded
at all. Choynski always said Corbett
had the better gloves, as he
eoold hit with full force and not
injure his hands.

Go Slaw!
Dob Martin, who beat Frank Moran
in New York recently, showed
a fair degree of ability, but it Is
evident that he will need at least
another year of ring experience before
he can be fairly matched
against such a champron as Dempsey.
To shove him along too fast
| would be unfair to a promising
youngster. I've known many good
I men to be spoDed because their
I managers were too anxious to grab
the big money. Nobody who has
I followed Martin's career wishes him
j anything but good luck. And that
[ wouldn't follow a match against
the champion at this time.
The Right Way.
j I wouldn't like to see Martin even J
matched against Carpentier or Bill |
Brennan now. Let him go through |
the list the way Dempsey did when
i fighting his way to the top. That's
i the only way to get there. Save
the best for the last.

| Moran intends to go back to Eng- j

I champs- He has reached the end
of his string at home, but across |
the sea he can always trim Bomby
I Wells, Beckett and that bunch. It's ;
better to be at the top on an island j
than at the bottom on a continent.

BUENOS AIRES, Aug. 7?German
electrical good.*, everything from

power plants, are pouring into this
port and at a cost, laid down in
the customs house, 50 per cent
lower than prices quoted by
American Arms for the sam* kind

deliver anything in the electrical

to locomotive, at a price from
30 to 50 per cent lower than British
or American houses.
American importers say they are
not alarmed at the influx of cheap
German good*. They attribute the
low prices at which the Germans
are able to do business to the surplus
stock and the low value of
steel formerly intended for war
purposes and which has now been
turned into peace time machinery.
If the dollar were at par in Argentina.
Americans say. they could

KETCH SAYS HAM ON
1 LEFT $17 <000fiOO
Prank !.?. Ketch, partner and confidential
associate of the late Jake
Kamon, former Republican committeeman
of Oklahoma, was in Washington
yesterday looking after tax
matters with reference to the Jake
Hamon estate, of which be ia the
administrator. lie was accompanied
Yy a party of seven other Oklahoma
oil and railway promoters, all of
vhc-rn stopped at the Hotel Washington.
Hamon at the time he was shot
by Clara Smith Hamon. last November,
had an estate valued at $17,000,000.
It amounts to something
less than that now, said Mr. Ketch,
because of the present low price of
oil and the general depression from
which the oil business in America
ifc suffering. The Hamon estate is
row producing 4,000,000 barrels of
crude oil daily, but the price, which
last winter was 13.50 a barrel, has
dropped now to $1 a barrel. Until
the price of oil pipe, steel storage
tanks and labor comes down In proportion
the producers of oil, says
Mr. Ketch, will lose money.
* When asked concerning Clara
Smith Hamon. he said that he had
not seen or heard of her sinoe
shortly after her acquittal of murder.
The last he had heard was she
van in Los Angeles, presumably doing
something in connection with
motion pictures.
"The Jake Hamon estate paid her
$?0 0^0 a few months ago." said he.
"in order to get a complete release
trcm any and all claims she might
make.'*
The Hamon estate all goes to the
v' if? ?nd two children. Mr. Ketch

Cbarles Itpy.
Departing: from his accustomed
:ype of rustic hero to impersonate'
i young; traveling salesman i
stranded in a small town. Charles!
Ray scores an outstanding triumph
in First National's film ver-1
lion of Charles Hoyt's "A Midnight
Bell." which yesterday held capacity
audiences at Crandall's Metropolitan
Theater. The foremost'
lupplementary feature is Mack Bennett's
latest two-reel fun film.
"Hard Knocks and Dove Taps," in |
which all of the Sennett beauties
and comedians are cast to advantage.
Charles Hoyt's plays, it will be
recalled by an older generation of
playgoers, were less notable for
their literary or permanent value
as dramatic germs than for their
unfailing utilisation of all elements
of drama sure to appeal to the
majority of amusement seekers.
"Charley's Aunt," "A Milk White
Flag," 'Sidetracked.- "A Texas
Steer." and many other workd of
this popular playwright achieved
instant success because, like the
contributions of George M. Cohan,
they supplied precisely what the
public liked. Of all his plays,
none was more notable in this respect
than "A Midnight Bell.** Humor,
mystery, romance, suspense
and thrills in abundance moved
yesterday's audiences to spontaneous
applause.
The story is one of intensely human
appeal that develops a delightful
romance at the same time that
it unfolds the clever scheme of a
daring band of bank robbers who
have created the mythical story
of a haunted church to provide a
scheme for their hazardous task of
tunnelling under the valuts of an
adjacent bank. Dared to brave a
night in the haunted church,
which two people are said to have
entered never to emerge again.
Kay. as Martin Tripp, has his suspicion
so aroused that he ventures
bsck to the spooky place ajiother
night and unearths the illicit enterprise
of one Stephen Dabaree.
aJ>o a boarder in the home of Abner
Grey. From this point on the
picture episodes take on a quality
of suspense and a tenseness of development
that holds the spectators
breathless.
Ray, in the role of the stranded
heel peddler, does an exceptionally
clever piece of work and is admirably
assisted in deriving the
whole effectiveness of the Hoyt
play from its wordless form by
Uot is l'awn, Donald MacDonald. Van
Dyke Brooke and numerous others
of a skilled supporting cast. The
production is an excellent one and
the direction, by Mr. Kay himself,
highly intelligent.
"Hard Knocks and Dove Taps."
is a typical farce productive of unending
laughter and full of novelty.
Pathe News pictures of the most
important events of the week, a
new symposium of the Literary Digest's
"Topics of the Day," and
interpretative orchestral accompaniment
complete one of the best
bills of the summer. Suppe's
"Pique Dame" overture, masterfully
rendered by the Metropolitan symphony
under the conductorship of
X. Mirskey. elicited tremendous applause
yesterday and will comprise
one of the high lights of the entertainment
throughout the week.
