WEEKES Chicago, Aug. 30.—(%)—A__ lone single was recorded to the credit of Milwaukee for the second game of yesterday's doubleheader with Minne- apolis, but it stood between Ralph Morgan, Miller recruit pitcher, and a no-hit game. Morgan, recently acquired by Min- neapolis from Topeka, was touched for a single by Young, in the third in- ning of the contest, but Young was the only Brewer to reach first base. Although cheated of no-hit fame, Morgan reaped all the glory by crash- ing out a long home run in the third inning to give Minneapolis a 1 to 0 victory. He fanned five men and did not issue @ base on balls, only 28 men facing him. Buvid, Brewer hurler, Permitted only four hits. The victory gave the Millers a split in the doubleheader, the Brewers winning the opener, 7 to 1, behind Herbert Cobb's good pitching, aided by homers from the bats of Geygan and Grimes. Kansas City retained its 10!: game margin over St. Paul by dividing a double bill with the Saints. The Blues won the opener, 4 to 1, in a pitching battle between George War- mouth and Al Shealey of St. Paul. ‘The Saints came back to rake Nelson, Day, and Fette for 14 hits and a 12 to 2 decision in the second game. Huck Betts worked for the Saints, permit- ting but eight widely spaced hits. Columbus made four hits into a 3 to 2 victory over Louisville although the Colonels collected seven safeties off Si Johnson. Toledo made it three out of four over Indianapolis, beating Ferd Schupp for a 5 to 1 decision.

Beaten 2nd Time By Young Couple (Tilden and Hunter Out; Mixed Doubles Team Will Hold Center of Stage Today Brookline, Mass., Aug. 30—(4)—The mixed doubles players in the 48th na- tional doubles tennis championships, who have been striving all week on out of the way courts for the title left undefended by Miss Helen Wills and Jack Hawkes, her Australian partner, today appeared assured of holding the center of interest as a result of the tournament committee's decision to hold over the men’s finals match un- til tomorrow afternoon, One quarter-finals clash involved Miss Sarah Palfrey, Boston, and W. F. Coen, Jr., Kansas City, two of the nation’s most promising younger players, playing against Miss Betty Nuthall of England, and George M. Lott, Jr., of Chicago. Another match in the same round has Mrs. Franklin I. Mallory, New York, and W. T. Tilden, 2nd., of Philadelphia, the national champions of 1922 and 1923, playing against Mrs. D. C. Shepherd-Barron, another Brit- ish Wightman cup player, and her South African partner, Norman Farquharson. George Lott and Johnny Doeg reached the final round of men's doubles yesterday by defeating Bill Tilden and Frank Hunter for the second time in a week. The former pair will play Berkeley Bell and Lewis N. White, the Austin, Texas, team, for the title tomorrow. The Texans gained the last bracket by trouncing W. F. Coen, Jr., and Harris Cogge- shall, Des Moines, Iowa. Quinn in One Series Pitcher Jack Quinn is the only reg- ular member of the Athletics who ever has taken part in a World Serics game. But Eddie Collins, Connie Mack's assistant, has taken part in six World Series, and George Burns, relief first sacker, in one, 1920. Four others, Pitchers Grove and Earnshaw and Infielders Boley and Bishop, all graduates of the Baltimore Orioles, participated in several “Little World Series” when members of the Orioles.

Devils Lake, N.

He is James Currie, 22, of Stark- ‘weather, and he has left for a tryout with the St. Louis Cardinals, Na- tional league champions. Currie has pee playing bang up baseball with , Canadian experts aver. He led the club in the hitting de- partment and has been had his early schooling attended the University of Ni kote for one semester. He left for St. Leuis with a brother and sister-in- law, Mr. and Mrs. Archie Currie, and whether the Ramsey county boy stays ‘or is sent to the bushes for seasoning he is worth watching. Tuffy Griffith , Stops Peterson ‘Sioux City Slugger Beats Four Heavyweights in Row; Is Pebble Beach layout by the one and only Bobby Jones. There is a distinct “Jones complex” in this California resort, spread with fantastic beauty and lavish charm along the rocky shores of Monterey peninsula. It apparently will be a bigger shock to California than it would be to Georgia should any un- expected events keep Bobby from winning his fifth championship. Officials of the U. 8. G. A., as well as Dawson, were reluctant today to discuss the case but the facts of the case are that Dawson, after reaching @ decision about his business connec- tions was frankly advised his entry in the competition would be frowned upon. Dawson represented the sport- ing goods firm long before he ever attracted the eye of golfdom. Some time ago, when the situation, reached an embarrassing stage for Dawson's future as an amateur star, he decided to enter a new line of business with his brother George. Now, however, he has changed his mind, decided to stick to the business he prefers, re- Gardless of the fact that it takes him automatically from the championship arena.

(Young) Stribling, referee failed to agree, two voting for Chocolate and one for Singer, The Associated Press score sheet gave Chocolate six rounds, Singer four, with two even. There were no knockdowns. Against Singer's superior aggressiveness and harder hitting power Chocolate fought a heady battle. He was content to lay back, keep Singer off with a snaky left until the going got tough. Then he tore in furtously and had the Bronx idol holding on at several stages of the battle. Singer found little use for his famous right hand, with which he knocked out Andre Routis of France, the featherweight champion. Chocolate outgeneraled him the whole way, tied him up effectively in the clinches, and had Singer swinging wildly at times. Despite a weight def- icit of nearly four pounds, the dusky Cuban was the stronger at the close. Chocolate weighed 125 pounds, Singer 128%. The gate was in excess of $200,000, the biggest purse any division lighter than the lightweights ever has drawn. Minot Is Assured Of Net Champion Howard Dunnell, Len Blaisdell and G. E.
