?*Y?^tes A?1 ScoZe Victories in Invitation
Tournament of Sea bright Lawn
Tennis Club
Mrs. Molla Mallory Vanquishes
Miss Bayard by 6-1, 6-2 Score
Jliss Goss, Mrs. Jessup and Miss Browne Also Tri
. umph on Courts; Richards, Johnston, Woos
nam and Williams Victors in the Men's Singles
By Fred Hawthorne
SEA BKIGHT, N. J., Aug. 10.?Two sensations thrilled the gallery
to-day in the annual invitation tournament on the turf of the Sea Bright
Uwn Tennis an?! Cricket Club. The firs^t tame when Vincent Richards
dropped the first set of his match with Howard Kinsey, of Califarnia,
without being able to win a single game, and the second when Miss Helen
Wills, the fifteen-year-old school girls from the Pacific Coast, won the
jecond set of her match from Miss Eleanor Goss, of New York, at 6_4.
Another match that stirred the on?
lookers and ws? greeted with huge de?
light ?as the victory of Holcombe
Ward ar.d Dwight F. Davis, who held
the national doubles title more than
fifteen years ago, over the Britsh Isles
Davit Cup team of Maxwell Woosnam
?ad 0. 6. Turnbuli by a score of 6?2,
g_g. Both the veterans were wearing
broad grins the rest of the day. and
they still wore them even after Norris
Williams and Watson Washburn had
?Jafeated them by a score of 6?3, 6 3,
in the following round.
Both men's and women's singles
reached the semi-final round, the win
Mrs in the first event being Richards,
who defeated Howard Krnsey at 0?6,
g_3, 6?2; William M. Johnston, of
California, who eliminated Dean
Mathey at 6?4. 'j?I; Woosnam, who
defeated Robert Kinsey at *> '?-. 6- 1.
and Williams, vho conquered F. Gor?
don Lowe, of England, at 6?2, 6 4.
Miss Bancroft a Victim
The winners in the women's singles
Were Mrs. Marion Zinderstein Jes
tup, who vanquished Miss Leslie Ban?
croft at 6?2, 6?3; Mrs. Molla Bjur
itedt Mallory. who put out Miss Mc.r
tha Bayard "by a score of 6?1, 6?2;
Miss Goss, who defeated Miss Wills
at 6?2, 4?6. 6?2, and Miss Mary K.
Browne, of California, who defeated
Miss Margaret Grove, of New York, by
? ?core of 6?3, 6?1. all these being
third-round matches.
On Friday afternoon at 3 o'clock ?1rs.
Jessup and Mrs. Mallory will fight it
out for the final bracket in the top
half and at 5 o'clock Miss Goss and
Miss Browne will piay in the ether
?emi-final match. Both of these should
produce quite the finest women'3 ten
Big shown this season.
Richards and Johnston will meet in
their semi-final match at 3:30 o'ciock
to-morrow and Woosnam and Wi
trill take the court at 2:45 o'clock. The
final will be played on Friday after?
noon, with the Davis Cup committee on
the side lines, watching every move
of the three contenders for places on
the team that will defend the inter?
national trophy at the West Side Ten?
nis Club next month.
Howard Kinsey caught Richards com?
pletely off guard at the start of their
Batch, and before the junior champion
realized it, he was trailing at 0? t. At
this stage Richards tried to make a
stand, but it was too late. Kinsey was
playing a' the top of his game, placing
his swift drives far down in Richards's
court and follow'r.g in behind his, forc?
ing shots to smother returns.
The New York boy seemed timid
about stroking the ball and his volley?
ing shots were sert and slow, so that
Xinsey had plenty of time to close in
and finish matter-?. After being com
ptetely outplayed in this set, however,
Richards steeled himself and went
after the second and third grimly. He
?perded up or. all his shots and began
l*i 'orce the net position for brilliant
Mssions of low- volleying, and once he
>ad hit his stride, Kinsey's chances
of working a sensational upset dwindled
fast
Johnston Looking Fit
Johnston looked more fit and kern
this afternoon against Mathey than at
tny time since I have seen him this
season. The former champion was get?
ting great speed and pace on his ground
strokes and his overhand volleys were
fierfection. After making a game stand
n the first act, Mathey was helpless
against the California!.'s furious at?
tack and one trame was all he was able
to pull out of the m?l?e.
Williams thoroughly enjoyed his
match with Lowe, for his hair-line
?hots were hitting the. lines with mar?
velous precision ?:nd he did not show
a real weakness in any department.
The British veteran's fine steadiness
from backe irt hi beautifully executed
and accurate backhand and all his in
terr.atior.a experience on the courts,
were of D0 avail aea:r.?t Cne Williams of
to-day, and Lowe went down to defeat
by * -core of 6 !, 6 4.
The match I ?veen Miss Goss and
Miss Wills attracted the major por?
tion of *'?? ??a ? ry in the morning ses
?ien of pis Miss Goss won the open?
ing s?et hand ly enough at 6 2. Her
?ground strokes were full of speed and
pace ar.d hi g good. In the
second set, however, the little Califor
nlan electrified the gallery by outplay?
ing her more e M^eri^nced opponent
eleanly. ,
It was a rema liable p:cture to see
this child, the personification of cool- i
ness and self-possession, charging the
Ret ar.d Ter- earning her points by
?plendid vollej ig and clean-cut over-,
head play. Her backhand shots across ??
court were also scoring frequently over i
Miss Goss, who wa? caught out of ;
position. When Miss Wills had;
?quared the match by taking the set ?
at ??4 the gallery ?ave her a greet;
?Tation.
Mia? Go?, ?Jega?ns Control

?et Mm G? ;ained her control !
?M confide >? forged rapidly'
into the les , - strongly both eff

Mrs. Ma?ory, Mrs. Jessup ar.d Miss

?op form to-day and should be ready
to give of thi ? | [n the semi-final
matches on Friday.

Clever Ride Gives Memorial
Purse io Camden's Entry;
St?-eplee?ase Prove. Joke
By W. J. Macbeth
SARATOGA. Aug. 10. Though a flat?
tering midweek attendance ivas on hand
ti is afternoon, it ? ry much of an
off day so far as real racing is con?
cerned in this Mecca of the American
turf. But fo*- the Sanford Memorial,
which attracted seven fair two-year
olds to the post, and which was won by
I. \. Camden's Sir Hugh, the program ;
would have approached a complete
"bust."
Only two horses started in the Sa?ra
rr.ore, the secondary feature, while the
steeplechase, which w :.>? graced by only !
three timber-toppers, developed one of
the big laughs of the year.
The Sanford Memorial had its disap?
pointments, too. for though this six- i
furlong dash, with a guaranteed cash
value of '5,000 is nol so rich in senti-'
n en1 and tradition s mo of the
other ?uvenile stakes, it was expected
that a few "r the crackajacks of the
division m ;ht be seen. The real top
notchers were not nominated, however.
In winn ng the Sanford Memorial Sir
Hugh proved himself a rather handy
youngster to have in an" man's stable,
for he had to overcome a rreat deal of
interference and difficulty to win the
li . share of the prine money, the,
.. 15 that went to the winner, not to
t? i tion i. gold cup valued ul $500, The
son of Light Brigade -Enigma eloped
witii a wonderful burst of ^peed
through the stretch.
Fine Riding by Garner
Jockey M. Garner shared wit!) Sir'
Hugh the glory of the victory, for he
extricated himself from a delicate po?
sition into which he had needlessly ;
fallen, and made the most of the only |
opportunity by which he could hope t">
save a disaster. Garner was none too .
alert at the post, and the break found
him among the stragglers. He at?
tempted to race up on the outside, but
soon found himself being carried away
to the outside ?f the track.
There was onlj one remed*, -to snatch
up quickly and steer an inner course. ?
This Garner accomplished v ith rare
good judgment. He made up ground
fast rounding the turn, once he got his
mount in stride, and at the stretch
turn found a hoi?- through which he ?
quickly crowded his steed.
Througl ' i? tretch Sir Hugh sim-]
ply overran the early pacemakers, took
the lead outside the sixteenth and won
with plenty to spare. The colt paid !
as high as ?; to 1 arid won by at least*
two lengths over Big Heart.
The big disappointment of the- fea?
ture race was the dismal performance!
of George H. Bull's .Muster?! Seed, the
favorite. This one, which was heavily
played, was a prominent contender to
the stretch aft r hen ?; carried a trifle
wide, bul f] : ? ?usl about the tim^
everybody expected him to com away,
an?! fini she i a bau fifth.
Olympus Sets the l'ace
Harry Pay:.- Whitney's Olympus,
with L?veme Fator up. cut out the
early running, with Big Heart in close
pursuit. Big Heart, raced Olympus
into submission about the time they
reached the top of the stretch, .and
seemed to have the race at his mercy
till Garner t ???'?; a hand with Sir Hugo.
M. L. Schwartz's Column had to take
the overland route coming in > the
trel h, *.' ?? nished out strongly and
lai li I ? rd ? ney by a full lengl h
from John '.. Madden's Deadlock, an
add? <! i tarter, i i Id? n by Sande.
C. T. Grayson's Love Tap was
scratched from the Sagamore Handicap
of a mile and a furlong, leaving only
J. J, Hallen leek's Lunetta and William
martin's Bellsolar to contest the issue.
Bel : ? ?lar wa ? beatei off .1 cil y block.
As to the steeplechase?why, nobody
is throush laughing yet. The favorite,
Robert Oliver, seemed to have the race
at his mercy com ng to the fourteenth
jump, ? ? ? '\ isl Fool ran oui carry
ii g Robert ; ,*er with him. Say Which,
ecoi ' choice, wa ? about a quart er
of a mil? to 1 ?? r< ar at the ' ime of the
accident, but before the other two could
pull uj) and return to the four! enth
fenc? : ?? rompi?te the race N. Kent edj
got ? -' >ed -afely - ver all t he feni ? -.
and Say Which won by a sixteenth of a
mile. Wisest Fool finished a quarter of
a mile ahead of Robert Oliver, but was
disquali
Mercury ?"lashes Speed
J. E. Widener's Mercury accounted
for the closing dash of six furlong3
for maiden ree-year-olds, another
triumph for the talent, or at least half
mph. Mercury ".vas coupled with
Guelpi . and closed ct 2 to l, the same
price e.;_': ? 1 rederick Johnson's Sum?
mit. They ran one-two a!i the way, but
Summit . is driving and Mercury was
cantering. J. I>. VVidener's Gallivant,
also strongly supported, took third
money.
Though the entries in at least two
rac? 3 for to-morrow ara sparse, the
card seems a vast improvement over
?..hat of to-day. The feature will be the
Alabama, at a mile and a quarter, for
three-year-old fiillies. It will introduce
to the East the crack Western filly, Bit
of White, which ran second to Flam
bette in the Latonia Oaks. On that oc?
casion Bit of White was beaten only a
short ni"-, after Nancy Lee, a stable
mate of : lambet!?', had carried her six
furlongs in 1:10 1-5. Bit of White will
have he?' work cut out again to-morrow,
she is :n against Prudery and Care?
ful.
Cliff Robinson was suspended for the
remain.'?'? of the season for rough
riding on Tuesday. F. Weiner was sus?
pended for three days for striking H. A.

The Best Six
"Pleast di Oui for me in rhyme," quoth my t son, who's bugs
<))i fhr ring, "the best six pugs, judged as boxers, of all time:
I don't mean the bniisers, pop," he protested with a solai
Plexus feint and glint of molar, "but?you know?the ???'(?!??->? crop!"
"Well, my lad, the best six, hey? This is somewhat of a stunt;
There ere h uidreds In that hunt and no two men think on way.
But here goes to bait the fans: In the pugilistic orbit
First of all I'd put Jim Cc bett and the dusky wizard Cans.
''Then right on their heels, my boy, fiarking hark through history,
Ranks young Griffon-prodigy of defense; then 'Kid' McCoy;
And the tina! ??racket runs: Philadelphia Jack O'Brien
And th' elusive Tommy Ryan, each a match for twenty tour."
"Pretty good, pop, though you've missed sonn dam good ones; K 'bane,
Erne
And Lavigne would have heartburn if iftnitted from that list;
And MacFarland?there's a king! Driscoll, Attel'l, Leonard, Gibbons.
But loho'd cut 'cm all to ribbGn3? Dempscy, hey, pop, in one ring!"
STANLEY K. WILSON.
The Resin's Resistance
Other sports, such as baseball and racing, have Laken a lusty puni
t?ieling from time *o Lime, only to show wonderful powers of resistanc?
b> coming back with a rush.
But boxing ?s trie hardiest pr ?duct of them all. No other game ii
history has ever been nurtured in such drab surroundings or from tim?
to Lime dragged into the mir?.' by so many ?.'rooks.
Fighters, promoters and, fight managers?the latter two classes i
vast flocks?have hammered and ripped away at tlie ancient sport unti
ar times only a shredded carcass was Iff;.
Yet to-day it can still lure more money into the pate from a greate
variety of human beings than ariy ether spurt.
Can you imagine, for one example, any other single contest fror
any other frame enticing $1,600,000 from 90,000 people?
On Adversity
It may be that games, after tlie manner of people, thrive best upc
adversity. Provided they are sound of soul.
The time to keep a double look-out posted i when prosperity in th
shape of golden tidal waves begins to envelop a sport, Too great succ?s
might wreck a game where al! other attacks had failed.
As long as ball players an?! club owners were gathering in great hai
vests of precious kale they stood out beyond all criticism. The clou
upon the horizon has been shut out by the golden wall. Few hall playei
making from $6,000 to .$10,000 a year have hustled and fought a - tr
oldtimers did at half the price.
Or can any one visualize the oldtime crowd of livers, Chance, Was
ner, Mathewson, Cy Young, etc., unconcerned, or undisturbed, or eve
sympathetic over such an episode as the White Sox smear?
The Greatest Infielder
A brace of bystanders desires an opinion upon the name of the grea
e-M infielder baseball lias ever known.
An opinion is only an opinion. We still award our sprig of laur
to Hans Wagner as the greatest of all infield stars, where all the elemen
of defense, attack and earnest purpose are considered.
And no 'ess a judge than John McGraw credits the old Pirate
being the most valuable ball player that ever smote a double or start
o .IniiKI,, ?lav
More Brittle Than Brutal
Our old side kick August J. Pugilism is becoming more brittle, than
brutal. Some boxer will set up an astounding record some day by com?
pleting his entire program with both fins uncracked.
As it stands now, the human head seems to be 343 degrees harder than
the human hand.
This isn't (he first time thai Bonny Leonard has suffered a dismantled
mauler and, in spite of a!I his cleverness and speed, the outlook for a long
reign is none too bright.
The boxer with brittle hard- is as strongly entrenched as a banker
without kaie.
The second accident to the champion's skillful fist ind?cales a large
area of future woe. His first touirh battle may easily bring about his
downfall, for the hand is too important a part of the pugilistic machinery
t , be taken lightly.
Benny can now join the Young Men's March Splintered Metacarpal
Club, of which Carpentier, Martin and Lynch are charter members.
Winning a Championship
"There wasn't a moment during the open championship," says -lue
Barnes, "when ? even thought of petting mad. losing my temper or allow-'
ing myself to get worried. I had mad" up my mind in advance that i
was going to give 100 per cent of my time and attention to playing gol:
and let the breaks of tii? game and th ? uncertain greens take care of
themselves." Which might he used as a complete book, entitled "How '.
Win a Championship."

White Battles
To Even Break
With Dundee
Lightweights Draw Before
15,000 in Bronx Bout;
Buff Ge?s tlie Decision
By Jack Lawrence
Charley White, of Chicago, and
Jo', nny Dundee, the battling Scotch
Wop, fought a fierce ten-round draw
before 15,000 persons at the Boxing
Di-'.me last night. While the decision
die. not seem to me?3: with the approval
o:" the crowd, it w?.s undoubtedly just.
v> lute delivered the harder and cleaner
Slows, but Dundee forced the milling
i.i most 01" the rounds and had the bet?
ter of many fierce mix-ups. The
weights wert: Dundee, 130, and White,
KM.
Dundee started with a rush and had
th?2 better of the first round. Innding
a serie? of .sharp lefts to White's face.
In the second the Chicago veteran
caught Johnny with his famous left.
and the local boy took refuge in some
acrobatic stunts against the ropes.
Johnny couldn't seem to keep away
fioni White's left, which had lot? of
steam behind it.
Both delivered telling blows in the
third and fourth, but the fifth round
was the one that brought the crowd
tj its feet.
Curious H?ftling in Fifth
In this session the men stood toe to
toe and battled furiously, with White
having the better of the fierce mix-up.
In the sixth White continued to use
his left to good effect, jarring Dundee
to his heels several times. Time after
time the Chicago boy caught the Scotch
Wop coming in with this hand and
rarely missed.
In the eighth Patsy Haley dodged
one of Dundee's wild rights and went
flat on his back, while the crowd
started to count him out. White had
a little the best of the seventh round,
but Johnny was strong in the eighth
an?! liad the better of some tierce
milling in tho Center of the ring. The
ninth was another whirlwind affair,
with Dundee raining hard lefts and
rights to White's jaw. The crowd was
howling for a knockout, but Johnny
slowed down when White sank a hard
left to tiie stomach.
Midget Smith, aspirant for Pete Her?
man's bantamweight title, was given
the decision over Young Montreal, of
Providence, ft. I., in a ten-round battle
that was filled with action.
Smith sent Montreal reeling to (he
floor for 'he count of nine in the sec?
ond round, and a second later he put
him down again for a count of seven
with a terrific ri??ht uppercut. In fall?
ing the Providence boy turned his right
ankle, and limped through the rest of
the bout. The red-headed visitor
fought a game battle and did some
wicked execution with bis left in the
last Tour rounds, but was unable to
overcome the Midget's early lead.
Unpopular Verdict for Buff
Johnny Buff was given the judges'
decision over Charlie Ledoux, of
France, in as fast and furious a battle
as has been seen in New York in a
decade. The decision was unpopular
with the crowd and was greeted with
hisses and jeering. Both men were
smeared with blood at the end of the
tenth round. Th" Frenchman seemed
to have the better of the fierce milling.
Ledoux started with a rush, backing
Buff from one corner to another with
a hurricane of lefts and rights. BuiT
awoke under the onslaught and fought
back, furiously. Buff's ripping left
shook up the Frenchman and drove him
to the ropes several times, but he al?
ways came hack for more.
In the fourth the Frenchman
charged at Buff and showered the \
champion with an assortment of ?dews
that drove him groggy into a neutral
"orner. Huff came back with a right !
C at staggered Charley, and at one j
??rie they were both hanging on the:
ropes. In the next round Ledoux sent
Johnny to his haunches with a ter?
rific right swing, but he did not take
:hc count. Buff's face was cut and
oleeding when the round ended. Buff:
ater opened the Frenchman's left eye
mm! the latter was all but blinded.
Marty Cross, welterweight, brother
f I,each Cross, fought a slashing ten
?? und battle, in which the judges gave
the decision to Doyle. The latter's
'vicked left hand gave him the victory.
lioss '-vas a willing scrapper, but his
unches were wild ami most of them
.--.?< d their mark.

writers. Wee Willie Richardson, of Tl e
New York Times, despite a hectic round :
that carried him to nook of the
course, won first prize ? .re of
105- 22- 83. Grantland Rice was none
too good, but plenty good enough to
capture second prize. Harry Cross, the
Evenintr Post humorist, finished in
third n'ace largely because of his han?
dicap of 25 strokes. Inadvertenly the
