By WALTER CAMP (Coftyright, 1924, Casper Tribune) NEW YORK, Aug. 19.—Who will win the national championship in lawn tennis? This question seems uppermost in the minds of tennis en- thuslasts just now. The Davis cup situation seems to cause less interest for, with Tilden and Johnston once more settled up- on as our representatives in the singles, the choice of two other men for the doubles from a group in- cluding the Kinseys, Richards, Wil- Mams, Hunter, Washburn and Grif. fin does not seem to stir much spe! ulation, at least not just now. But there is a wide divergence of opinion as to whether Bill Johnston is going to threaten Bill Big Tilden in the national. Johnston has had some upsets and on the other hand, has shown flashes of his old form, plus greater stamina and {t was this latter qual- ity that he needed upon former occa- sions. And there are other threatening men whom Johnston “will have to pass, just who being dependent on the draw.

ADDITIONAL NEWS OF SPORTS: JINX GHAGING COBB'S TIGERS Accidents: Leave Gaps In Lineup With Regularity. By JOHN B. FOSTER. (Copyright, 1924, Casper Tribune) NEW YORK, Aug. 9.—Fate must have it in for Ty Cobb's inffeld. As soon as he gets one position filled with a player that appeals to him and promises to plug a hole, accident comes along and opens up another gap. This time {t {s Blue, the Tiger first baseman who probably {s lost to the Uneup for the remainder of the east- ern trip. It is not such a prolong: ed affair, as it ends this month, but it may be long enough to play the mischief with the Tiger attack and knock them down a few points in the pennant race. Were Blue out for only two or three games, it would be bad enough But jt appears that he will not be able ‘to get back in the game for some time. His speed and his bat have always been factors against the east and the susbstitution of a player at this stage on a team which depends as much cn good first base play as Detroit does is damaging. If Detroit has stamina this is the time when they must show it. They could lose an outfielder with less damage than a first baseman for, like most teams, they don’t carry a crack second string firét baseman. That doubleheader*which St. Louis lost to the Yanks the other day at the start of their August invasion of New York was a repetition of other HE'S BEEN PROSPECTING FIFTY YEARS AND HASN'T |.

They have won so much since the war ended that every time any one in Canada asks, “Who's got it?” the auswer fs “Thompson. Look at thelr record, beginning with 1919. In the Canadian amateur at Lamb- ton, 1919, Stanley Thompson was second In the qualifying round. W. F. Thompson was fifth. Stanley ‘Thompson went to the fourth round of the championship. W. J. Thomp- son lost ‘in the semi-finals at the 87th hole'to W. J. McLuckie. Frank ‘Thompson won the soldiers’ compe- tition and second consolation. At Hamilton in the international matches W. J. Thompson defeated Jerome D. Travers, United States open-and amateur champion in his time, 3 and 2. In the Canadian open at Hamilton W. J. Thompson was leading amateur with 301. Now comes 1920. At the Cana- dian amateur championship at Beaconsfield’ W. J. Thompson won the qualifying round with 153. Stan- ley Thompson was third with 158, Frank Thompson went to the fourth round of the championship before he was put out. In the interna- tioral match at Roslyn, L. I., Frank ‘Thompson defeated Bobby Jones 2 up. ‘The year 1921 is next: At the Canadian open at Toronto Frank ‘Thompson ‘with 302 ‘led all Cana- dian-amateurs. He went to Win- nipeg and won the Canadian. ama- teur. W. J. Thompson again won the best gross in the open handi- cap. The 1922 record follows: In the amateur at Hamilton, W. J. Thomp- son led the players with 153 in the qvalitying :ound. Frank was third with 156. * The former again reached the semi-finals. +In_ the Canadian professional at the Coun- try Club, Montreal, Nicol Thomp- son was winner with 145. experiences the Browns have had. The Yanks had won five games from the Browns and lost three to them at the Yankee stadium prior to the Yank Invasion of the-west. As both major league races stand now, there is not the slightest preb- ability that elther of them ‘will be won with 100 victories. It is prob- able that both will’be won with Jess than 95 victories. ‘That would not be the low water mark for a single league, but if both races are decided by less than 95 victories the year 1924 will have set a new record in big league baseball. The Giants seem to have the op- portunity to win by a larger margin than the Yanks or whoever wins in the American.

Benny had a watchful eye on the Vincentini-Bernstein battle and it is probable no one was more disap- pointed than he at the failure of the Chilean to prove sensational. Bérnstein, as a challenger, does not excite the populace very much and_as-things stand now, there would not be much money in that fight. ‘Still if a real first rate Ughtweigtt developed, how’ would Leonard feel about meeting him at the amateur championship. Stanley Thompson led the field in thé qual- ifying round with 149. Although 1924 is not over the Thompsons are busy. W. J. Thomp- son has won the Ontario champion- ship. He has also won the qual- ifying round in both the amateur and the Ontario, Frank has won the amateur championship again, holding it last in 1921. To top all of this another brother, Matthew, of Winnipeg has won many competitions in that part of the world. In 1919 W. J. Thomp- son was good eonugh to last until the last eighth when he was defeat ed by S. Davidson Herron who won the title that year.

Loeb, who had played tennis with young Franks the day before, en- ticed- him into the automobile they had hired for the occasion. Leopold drove off and Loeb smashed the boy’s head with the cold chisel. This done, the youths put into play their plot to obtain ransom from the fath- er by a clever letter ruse. Two crimes carrying with them the death penalty were thus committed—kid- naping for ransom and murder, At that time this consideration did not bother the killers. They took the body to the unfrequented flats south of Chicago and hid it in a culvert, satisfied that the “per- fect crime” had been committed and covered in every detail. A chance passer, however, discovered the mur- dered boy and set under way one of the cleverest known pletes of detective work, forces of Chicago's police depart- ment were set in motion to find the killers.

From Benny's present appearance he would have to do a lot of work to get down to the lightweight divi- sion and having done so would not be strong for a gruelling battle. Leonard, however, through his bout in Cleveland with Pal Moran, has left the way open for a. fight after he has finished with Walker. The, battle ended with Moran still on his feet and while New Yorkers might not fall for the fight in great numbers it figures. to be good enough for out of town promoters to bid for it. Tommy.
