The score in that game was 4 to 0. Dec Love will pitch for sure, Sun- day, Eddie says. “Hot weather is here now and Doc should be reaching his customary effective throwing form.” Duckie Guidas will work behind the platter with Tobin at first; Fuller or Cosgriff at second; Punt Johnson at shortstop; Louis Lenaburg at third; and Babe Mohn, Dutch Nagel, John Sagehorn, and Charlie Boardman do- ing the fielding performances. It is expected Charlie Boardman, former major league performer who has had a late start this year, soon will reach his customary batting form much to the misery of opporent hurlers. Preparing to Win Steele is importing a hurler for the capital city game, which would indi- cate that Steele will do everything in its power to prevent the loss of the game. one of the most attractive games each season in this neck of the ‘woods. Armstrong, veteran of the last sev- cral years, will stop them behind the batter. The remainder of the invad- ers’ lineup should look something like this: Fillbrown, first base; O'Donnell, second base; Dolin, shortstop; Tucker, third base; Epstein, Mellon, and George, outfielders. Fillbrown, O'Donnell, Dolin, Mellon, and George all are newcomers and have increased the strength of the visitors. defea Tennis Interest Grows in Texas New York, June 14.—()—Sam Hardy, veteran player and student of tennis, sees Texas as a worthy rival of California as a source of future American court stars. If the present interest in the game in the lone star state is maintained, he predicts in Spalding’s lawn tennis annual which is to appear soon, “it will not be long before some Texas player will capture one o: our im- portant national titles, a victory that would be a fitting reward for all that Texas is doing for tennis.” California, he points out, “is not the only state wherein the game can be played all year. Texas is similarly fortunate. There, as on the Pacific coast, the :eaders cf the game are doing everything possible to increase the facilities for play. “Every year a dozen or so Texas players are sent north to compete in the major tournaments of the country and their influence steadily is becom- ing more potent.” Among the capable Texans men- tioned are ‘Vilmer Allison, fifth in the national ranking this year and a member of the Davis Cup team; Berkeley Bell, who, Mr. Hardy says, “soon will gain a place in the first 10;” Lewis N. White, who was one of the most promising of the country's players until he became ill a year or so ago; and Louis Thalheimer, White's doubles partner.

CHIPMAN (Associated Press Sports Writer) The twin dash of the Pirates and the Athletics continued yesterday to the accompaniment of increasing consternation on the part of con- tenders, real and suspected.

The Pittsburgh game saw the early demise of both Jess Petty and Bill succession Walker, who crumpled in in the second when each side scored five times. Melvin Ott’s thirteenth home run with two on base settled Petty’s case in the Giant half, and McGraw removed Walker on sus- picion with one run in and the bases filled. The Cubs were unable to reach a decision in their five-inning game against the Phillies. The score“was 0 to 0 when rain fell. The Cardinal- Brave game at St. Louis was post- Poned altogether because of rain. The old dazzler, Arthur C. Vance, made his first start since May 16, and the Reds would have been just as well pleased if he had postponed it a few more days. The Brooklyn star fanned only one but he gave Cin- cinnati just five hits and the Robins won by 2 to1. The one run off Vance Was unearned. The Athletics carried their winning streak over into the Cleveland series with the greatest ease, extending the Spurt to four games. | Eddie Wells, the southpaw from Borneo, opened the Detroit series for the Yanks by issuing five passes, but at the same time limited the slugging Bengals to seven hits. The Yanks, however, pulled through, despite a last-minute rally. =‘ Milton Gaston added to the woes of the Browns by turning them back at Boston in a game which saw cach side got seven hits.

Cobb Calls Yanks Weary of Success Philadelphia, June 14.—@)—Suc- cess-weary, in the opjnion of Ty Cobb, is the hyphenated trouble from which the New York Yankees are epi. if it may be pre- sumed that they are suffering. Anyway, whether they are ailing or not, “success-weariness” will cost the Yanks the pennant this year, ac- cording to the veteran star, who vi ited here on his way to Europe. “The old poe plus new spirit,” he said, “will carry the Athletics to the shaniplonahin, an ambition that Connie Mack has sought to attain since 1914” THE RULE IS!
