Darnall, Lebanon, defeated Harold Cash, Indianapolis, 6-1, 6-1. Tennis stars of the highest caliber from here, there and everywhere wer£ to take to the Woodstock Country Club courts In the Western championships today. It was the first day for out-of town players, although the tourney opened Saturday afternoon, and the fans were on edge for the action. Matches carrying all the splendor of final round contests were on the chart for today, as the entry list is crowded with top-notchers and the stars will keep the pot boillpg from now until next Sun day afternoon, when Walter T. Hayes, present Western titlehoider, defends bts laurels against this year's winner in the challenge round. Johnny Hennessey. Indianapolis, and Willis Fulton, Cleveland, were expected to offer something well worth while at 4 o'clock this afternoon. Fulton is said to be one of the best players the Buck eye State boasts of. and it is a certainty that Hennessey is the best we've got. so the match was expected to be one of the best of the tourney. WILLIAMS AND COONS MATCHED. Lucian Williams. Chicago-Yale player, and the veteran Jack Coons, Lebanon, Were carded In a big match at 2:30 this after. Coons is a player wealthy in tournament experience and a hard one to get around, which all went to make it evident that young Williams was in for a strenuous afternoon of It. C. A. Bradley, Toledo-Harvard entry, and George Starbuck, the lanky north side player, were to meet in the same period. Art Hubbell of Chicago, and D. W. McLeod of Pittsburgh, were the only visiting players scheduled to go against one another today. The names of these two racquet swingers have been carried to local fans all dolled up In class, and it was expected that they would furnish quite a few interesting moments before their 4 o’clock match was decided. So far, there have been no early alibis offered around the Woodstock courts. Every player entered seems to be ready for the fray and anxious to let the 'oth ers know it, so the fans might Just as well prepare themselves for a regular avalanche c the kind of tennis that doesn t come along with every tourna- ' ment. There was nothing particularly exciting in the Saturday afternoon matches. They were, for the most part, between local players, and where one man showed big league speed his opponent was generally inclined to let him take things as he wanted them. There were cases, how ever, when certain nettetrs cnt loose with some real play, and It looks as though they are going to make things rather Interesting for the visiting competition. Vin Richards, Eastern star, was awarded his first match by default. SATURDAY'S RESULTS. WOODSTOCK FINALS. I ritz Bastian defeated Ralph Burdick, 6-3. 6-4. 6-4. WESTERN CHAMPIONSHIP.

The Hennessey-Bastlan competition that has "made” Indianapolis tennis tour ney* for the last few years was reduced to a lighter shade yesterday afternoon when Johnny took Fritz on In the chal lenge round of the Woodstock Invita tional and put kid off a short time later with 8-2, 6-1, 6-1 scores. Haitian detested Ralph Burdick, Hen nessey's doubles partner. In the Wood stock finals Saturday afternoon, afford ing a big feature to the opening of the Western championships, and appeared primed for his tussle with Hennessey yesterday afternoon, but the match that counted had not gone past the opening stages when it was seen that Johnny was primed to win. Bastian was "right." and played very creditable tennis, the kind that won him the Western Confer ence championship recently. But that la Just half the story. The gent on the opposite side of the net from Frits also was on his mark, and he played the kind of tennis that led him to defeat In noth lng bnt the third round of the national championships last year. If anything, Johnny Hennessey was a better player yesterday than he was last season. He did not show improvement In any particular department of the game, but Just simply played tennis, the whole of It, better than ever before. The match, for all that, was as bitterly contested as any between the big rivals ever was, but Johnny had It on the rangy southpaw at every turn and twist ,and he seemed to know It. Judging from the way be dashed around the court, crack ing everything within balling distance, and wearing bis “smllingest smile.” At the start of the match, Bastlan tried for a while to battle from the net, but Hennessey aoon had him running circles around himself from this position and he retired to the back court. In doing this. Frlta accepted defeat. Hen nessey played from any position he de sired. One minute he was at the net batting them back at Frlta with the speed of a bnllet, then he wouold hustle to the back court ar.d beat his opponent for a while from this position. Bastlan was on the defense almost from the start, but his defense was nothing to compare with the drive of the champion. Hennessev and Bastian are both play ing In the Western championships on the Woodstock courts, but they must play through the finals to meet. Hennessey Is in the best of shape for the stiff play In front of him and confident that he. can rush through the heavy field to take a clear shot at the crown worn by Walter T. Hayes of Chicago. Protests Pitcher Deal SHREVEPORT, La., July 11—Manager Billy Smith of the Grassers of the Texas League has announced that he is plan ning a fight to the finish for the services of D. H. Marshall, a young college pitcher for whom the Cincinnati Reds paid $3,000 to Richmond of the Virginia League.

New York on Verge of Passing Up Y anks as Pennant Hopefuls Gotham Fans Turn to Giants for Cheer—Tinware Rat tles for Huggins. By HENRY FARRELL, United Press Sports Aditor. NEW YORK, July 11.—Manhattan's hopes, the Giants and the Yankees, will have to do some hustling if they are to get anything belter than a runner-up's cut of the world's series money. , The season Is Just about half gone and as a result of wasted chances and oppor tunities. the Giants and the Yanks are both three and one-ha’f games behind the two Hague leaders with no Imme diate prospects of improving. Following the miserable showing of Yankees against the White Sox, New Y'ork has Just about forsaken the Ameri can Leaguers and Is looking to the Glints to bring the series to the Polo grounds. The Yanks have the falling of cleaning np on the first-class clubs and losing to the second string teams Just when the going is rough for the leaders. Much of the blame Is being attached by the fans to Miller Huggins, a man ager who has never been popular. Al though there Is no official foundation for the belief, the bugs are expecting a switch to be made in the management. Pittsburgh, now leading the National League, has an easier road ahead than the Giants. The Pirates finish the sea son with a long stay at home and al though the figures do not show it. Gib son's men are generally regarded as a poor road club. The Giants have to fin ish the season on the road. John McGraw, boss of the Giants, who still leads the club from the bench, is showing signs of a realization that some thing has to be done. His latest trade, Monroe and Winters for Red Causey, the Philadelphia pitcher, means that the Giant chieftain is not satisfied with his sta ff. Good results of the trade which brought Johnny Rawlings to second base from the Phils are apparent. The whole infield looks better and Rawlings Is playing a great game. Neither Pittsburgh or Cleveland, the two leegue leaders, are showing any signs of cracking Cleveland especially, through the abil ity of the great Speaker, Is weathering storm after storm in the way of acci dents and erratic work from the pitchers. British Forgot Frills When Yank Won Honors NEW Y'ORK, July 11—Somebody “Just handed Jock Hutchison the cup” after he had won the British open champion ship, according to the American golfer's version of the much discussed episode. Hutchison arrived yesterday from Scot land. “I guess thev didn't like me because I turned American. The only friends I had on the course were my father and the Americans in the gallery After I had won someone In the crowd Just handed me the cup. There weren't the usual speeches,” he said Hutchison's name was not engraved on the cup, as is customary. Teamed with Tom Kerrigan, the new champion were to play George Duncan and Abe Mitchell, the British Invaders, a seventy-two hole match today at the Pelham Country Club for a $l,oi)0 A. B. Cs in for Hot Time With Chicago Athletes Everything was even between the A. B. C sand Chicago Giants when the two clubs squared off at Washington Park this afternoon for the third tilt of their series, the twin Mil yesterday going fifty-fifty. Both clubs were scrapping hard for the series edge this afternoon and the heat of their two games yester day was such as to get the fans ready for a sparkling contest today. The visitors took the first game yester day, 2 to 1. Johnson pitched stellar ball for Taylor’s team and held his opponents scoreless until the eighth frame, when poor support put him two runs be hind. The A. B. C.s came back better In the second tilt, which lasted seven rounds, nnd ran away with a 9 to 5 victory. Jefferies was the moundsmau for the A s In the second game and kept iu command of the situation all the way, after his mates had given him three runs for a starter. 237 Entries for Golf Open Title Competition NEW TORK, July 11,—Entries total ing 237 had been accepted Saturday for the national open golf championship to be held at Washington, starting July 1 c ;.

Gibbons Is here on a fishing trip. By JAMES J. CORBETT. Former World's Heavyweight Champion. NEW YORK, July 11. —Georges Car peutier vs Tom Gibbons! Here's a match that would be worth while. It ought to be a hummer; a match full of action. I imagine, too. that it would fill Tex Rickard's big Jersey City arena. In Gibbons, the French champion would face a man of his own weight, lorn scales s t 170 to 173 pounds and there would be no more than three or four pounds In the difference between them Under this circumstance Carpentler s title as world's light heavyweight cham pionship would be at stake.

Reds Give Players and Coin for Vet Coast League Star Brenton, See and SIO,OOO In cluded in Purchase of Seattle Pitcher. CINCINNATI, July 11.— In a des perate effort to strengthen the club, the Red management today closed a deal with Seattle for Robert Geary, n 30-year old pitcher whose home is In Cincinnati.

Thrilling Sox Victory Fatal to Omaha Fan CHICAGO, July 11—The roar of 23,000 fans, which greeted Bib Falk when he trotted across the plate with two out In the frenzied ninth of Saturday's sixteer.- inning battle between White Sox and New York was the funeral dirge for J. H Green of Omaha, a spectator. Green did not live to see his favorites win. The heat and the excitement proved too great. It was not until the end of the inning that his huddled figure was noticed beneath the seat. While cheers still re-echoed ho was carried out, but he was already dead. Heart disease was given as the cause. bons Carpentler match would attract genuine interest. The French champion is intensely popular here, despite his de feat by Dempsey, and the boxing public wants to see him in action against a man of his own weight. Gibbons, with twelve straight knockouts to his credit, is com ing on like an express train and a meet ing between this pair is the one logical match fur Promoter Rickard to make. With Gibbons in the same ring, Georges Carpentier would, no doubt, show an en tirely different style of fighting. His boxing ability and defensive tactics would come out, for I understand Gibbons is fast and clever, that kind of a boxer who bring* out the bast there is In *n opponent, and I would go a long ways so see this contest. Gibbons surely will put a feather in his cap if he con beat Carpentler, and the confidence he has In himself must mean something for he has seen Georges In action. Carpentler saw Gibbons box once. The St Paul scrapper beat Jack Clifford In three rounds In Brooklyn, with Georges at the ringside. Big League Stuff Burleigh Grimes, giving np five hits, pitched the Dodgers to victory over Pittsburgh. The Brown* onthlt th* Senator*, getting thirteen swat* off Mogridge bat were unable to bunch their blngles and were beaten. BUI Ryan's fine pitching spelled defeat for the Cubs. Cleveland, with Malls and Morton on the firing line, gained ground on the Yankees by taking two games from Philadelphia. Red Faber took the measure of the Y'ank* while the White Sox hatted Jack Quinn's fog ball right merrily at Chi cago. McGrnw traded Mnnro and Winter* to th* Phillies for Cecil ( ausey in an effort to bolster 111* pitching staff for the coming battles against Pitts burgh.

Not one of the loyal Sox looked at their accused former team mates. The "Black Sox,” however, wistfully watched Gleason and his players enter. They appeared disappointed when the Sox failed to give them any kind of a greeting. During the examination of veniremen, the two parties carefully re frained from looking at each other. Attorney Harry Berger, who called the loyal Sox as witnesses, announced also he would subpoenne every baseball writer of repute who attended the 1919 world series.

PAUL, July 11.—With a record ol seven victories out of the last eight games played the Indians today were back in the first division of the Ameri can Association race and feeling fully competent of continuing the great dn"a that started In Louisville one week ag. today. In that period the Hooslers dropped only one contest and that to the Miller, Saturday in a twelve-inning struggle, 16 to 9. The Hooslers had a good lead In that fray, but the Millers, desperate from four straight defeats handed them by the Hendricksmen, rallied and finally emerged the victor. But that loss failed to check tha hustling Indians, for on Sunday they moved over to this city, met the Cham pion Saints in a twlr bill and grabbed both ends, 8 to 4 and 5 to 2. Lee Bart-e ---lett hurled the first victory yesterday and Petty and Cavet the second, Pug taking up’ the pitching when his south paw mßte gave signs of slipping. In the opener Sunday the Tribe knocked Pat Shea, Saint ace, out of the box in the third inning when they galloped around the bases for six runs. Bartlett got in on this rally with a time ly triple Just to show that he can bat as well as pitch. Miller, Saint outfield star, got a home run, his fifteenth of the season, with two men on bases in the third. It was a mighty swat, but in the second game Hank Schreiber of the Tribe nearly equalled It In distance by crashing the ball over the left center .field fence. Other feature batting was contributed by Shinners and Covington in the first battle and Shinners and Cavet in the sec ond. Cayet crashed two long doubles in two times at bat and they were about the longest doubles ever registered at Lex ington Park. Caver rejoined the team late Saturday night after making a flying trip to Kenosha, Wis., to listen to an outlaw offer by the Simmons industrial team of that place. Vice President Smith was on his trail, however, and induced the noted southpaw to return to the Tribe. And It was well that the star southpaw got back, because he surelv hit and pitched In big league style after relieving Petty In the second battle here yesterday. In the contest scne.uied tor this after noon it was like'.v that Rogge would and the pitching The Saints beat him at Indianapolis and the big fellow was eager today to turn back the two-time champs In decisive fashion.
