10° CALIFORNLA STAR IN STRAIGHT SETS Frederick J. Perry, Britisher, Is Defeated After Stubborn Fight DOEG LOSES LOVE SET Vines Has Performed Brilliantly This Season to Win Seven Titles Forest Hills, N. Y., Sept. 12.—(7)— ‘The national singles tennis cham- plonship lay Saturday between 19- year-old Ellsworth Vines of Pasadena, Calif, and George M. Lott of Phila- delphia, a veteran of the tennis wars. He will be 25 next month. Lott marched into the final round | ‘with a straight set victory over the defending champion, John Hope Doeg, of Newark, N. J., 7-5, 6-3, 6-0. Vines eliminated the powerful Briton, Frederick J. Perry, 4-6, 3-6, 6-4, 6-4, 6-3. Lott's showing has been astounding. ‘He had to stand in the Davis cup in- terzone finals with Great Britain this year. Young Frank Shields and Sid- ney Wood carried the singles burden. Lott played only doubles. He has played in the national championship annually since 1924 and never before has gotten further than the semi- finals. In this tournament, only Johnny Van Ryn, in the quarter-finals, has been able to win a set from Lott. Vines can point with pride to his achievements this season. Since April he has won seven singles titles. He made his first appearance in the na- tional championship last year, losing in the first round. ATIONAL LEAGUE 9 ‘Won Lost Pct, Bt.

Two Philadelphia sluggers, Virgil Davis and Chuck Klein, wound up Thursday’s games in a vir- tual tie for the position of leading regular, separated only by a small fraction of a percentage point. Davis had an average of .3434 while Klein's mark was .3430. Bill Terry of New York, the 1930 champion, was third with .342, while all the first ten “reg- ulars” had averages above .320. Klein also held his place as kingpin among the sluggers with three first places in various departments.

The Giants had a .290 average and the Cubs .285. Three teams, Chicago, New York and St. Louls were tied for first place in fielding with .974 marks. Although Jim Mooney of the Giants, with six straight victories, topped the pitching list, Jess Haines of St, Louis was still considered actual Golf Finalist games, leader with 11 victories and three de- feats for a .786 average. Another Cardinal, Paul Derringer, was a close second with a mark of .727. Modest Art Leads In League Batting Shires Shows His Heels to Am- bitious Hitters in Ameri- can Association .

Series’ COACH FEELS MICHIGAN GRID TEAM SHOULD BE SUCCESSFUL Kipke Has 16 Letter Men Back As Well As Promising Crop of Sophomores Ann Arbor, Mich., Sept. 12—(P)— ‘There is a tone of unusual optimism in the University of Michigan foot- ball camp as the time draws near for the opening of practice Sept. 15. With 16 lettermen returning and several ising sophomores coming up, ‘cach Harry Kipke admits that the team “may be a little better” than the one he coached through an un- defeated season in 1930. “I feel we ought to have a little better team than last year,” Kipke said, “but I also feel that I was very’ fortunate in getting through the way I did in 1930. '’ Kipke feels the backfield and end positions will be “fairly well taken care of” with an interesting battle for places in prospect. “And,” he said, “I feel I have the best center in the country in Maynard Morrison.” The Michigan coach indicated he plans to use the open style of play even more than last year when for- ward passes brought victory. The running game was stressed during spring practice, and several new plays from punt formation were worked out. Harry Newman, Capt. Roy Hud- son, Morrison, and Bill .Hewitt are looked upon generally as the out- standing candidates for the 1931 Michigan team. The brightest soph- omore prospects are Ted Petoskey, end, Herman Everhardus and Stan Fay, halfbacks. Michigan's opponents follow: Central State Teachers college, Michigan State Normal college, Chi- Indiana, Michigan State, and Min- nesota.

Milwaukee Tidy Up Park For Contests With Champions of Internation- al League Chicago, Sept. 12.—(7)—Lexingtor park, where St. Paul plays its home games, is being all tidied up for the “little world” series between ‘the champions of the American Associa- jtion and the International League. The figures still give Kansas City @ chance to tie St. Paul in the Asso- ciation, but the Saints are not wor- ried over either the figures or the Blues. To tie St. Paul, Kansas City would have to win all of its remaining eighteen games, while the-Saints lost their sixteen. St. Paul managed to make the title theirs by everything except mathe- matical certainty yesterday, but spent twelve wild innings in doing it. Mil- waukee’s Brewers scored three runs in the eighth and ninth to tie the score at 7-all, and struggled on until the third overtime inning be- fore going down, 8 to 7. A walk to Harold Andergon and Oscar Roett- ger’s single provided the winning run, Kansas City improved its hold on second place by taking another slug- ging contest from Minneapolis, 12 to 11. Each team made a dozen hits, with Frank McGowan punching out a pair of home runs for the Millers. Grigsby, Akers and Treadway hit for the circuit to help the Blues gain the decision. Indianapolis had to make another one of those finishes to defeat Colum. bus, 8 to 6. An eighth inning uprising, featured by a triple steal, gave Toledo a 12 to 5 decision over Louisville.
