Chicago Club. 4 By JOHN B. FOSTER (Copyright 1924 The Casper Tribune) NEW YORK, Aug. 28.—It ts whis- pered that there will be a complete réorganization cf the playing end of the Chicago Americans. The re- port is hardly surprising for if any baseball club started out on a hard luck course ‘that had all the appear- ances of intending to continue in- definitely, Chicago started on such @ course in 1924. First of all, Frank Chance was made manager, No hard luck about that. In fact, quite the opposite. But then Chance went to Chicago for the winter meetings of the leagues gnd became ill, He picked up a chill first and finally came down with bronchitis, asthma and pretty nearly everything else. Frank went back to Cal‘fornia and {it was not long before repor' came back that he would be unable to join the club in spring practice. The result was the Sox did not get just the practice that had been mapped out for them. At the start John Evers was: in charge, but he did not know what to do all the time because he kept expecting Chance to show up and did not want to enter upon anything that would conflict with Chance’s. ideas. Finally Chance announced that he would rot be able to managé the team at all. Evers was immediately named manageg, but conditions were not what they would have been had he been In full charge all the time. By and by Evers came down with appendicitis and had to have an operation, That brought Eddie Col- Ins to the helm and the team did well with him. Then Evers got well and re-joined the team and neither team nor Evers has had any luck to speak of since. Evers has not recovered from the operation as he wished ‘and he has been gradually worrying himsif into more ill health. The Sox have caught the atmos- phere of depression and themselves have become depressd until they found the cellar of the American League. _ Comiskey is so blue that indigo looks white by comparison and word has been received from California that Chance ‘will not be with the White Sox in 1925 and probably will nct come back east. It is feared the climate would at- fect him and compel him immedi- ately to retrace his steps.

Suzanne Lenglen, the French cham- pion, announced from Paris that she would default the title she had held so many years and that she would devote all of her time to pre- pare for the Olympic matches. “TI cannot be in my best form for both tournaments, and in choosing between Wimbledon and Paris I must consider my France and do my best for her,” she said. It was somewhat of a surprise then when her entry for the singles and doubios was found in the mali at Wimbledon, It came after the entries had closed, but an exception was made ‘and the entry was ac- cepted. Word came later that she did not feel well enough to compete in the singles. She was just over an at- tack of jaundice, she said, and she would play only in the doubles to test herself and get back on. her game. The prospects for a battle between Miss Helen Wills,” the American champion; Miss MeKane, the fine British player, and Mlle. Lenglen, then seemed definitely gone. The French girl and her mother came to Paris on the day the Wight- man Cup matches, between the British and American women's team, started, Mile. Lenglen entered the stadium during the first game of the second set between "Mrs. B. C. Covell and Miss Wills and sat in the royal box with her attention apparently on the court, After the young American cham- pion had been beaten, the writer had a talk with the French star. In respon: to a request for her opinion on the game of the Call- fornia girl, Muli Lenglen replied that she had not seen Miss Wills Play. “I arrived too late,” she said. “You are not going to play in the She sald, during the course of the interview, that she never felt better, that she has recovered completely. am glad that I will be able to play,” she said, “because I want to show these nice English people that they should not have believed those statements I was alleged to have made about them. I would also like to show the American people that they also misunderstood my motiv when I resigned during my match at Forest Hills with Mrs. Mallory." Remembering the freedom that Mile. Lenglen had exercised in ex pressing her opinion of Mrs. Mallory and recalling the details of that duel of cable statements between the two riyals, it was ‘considered gracious, but rather unusual, that the French girl would not utter a word about the young American champion. ‘Tho opinion was ex- Pressed at the time that Suzanne might not want to start anything that she couldn't stop without actually proving it on the courts; Interest had been aroused tre- mendously in London by the pros pects of a final round between the French girl and the young Ameri- can. Crowds were pouring dally to the Wimbledon grounds and scalpers said they were, getting a pound more for choice seats than they had ever been paid. Then the crash came when Mile. Lenglen’ announced after she had been given a great fight by Miss Elizabeth Ryan, the former Califor- nia woman, that she had suffered a relapse and that she would not be able to play again. She said her doctor had ordered her to discon- tinue play unless she wanted to impair her health permanently. Officials of the all-English club, which promotes the Wimbledon ehamplonships, were incensed. They figured that she had allowed a whim to break up the tremendous interest in the tournament. American ers in the tournament likewise w: furious. They saw the daily im provement that was being made in Miss Wills’ game and everyone on the two American teams cherished the hope that our young champion would win. They .all knew, of course, ‘that the California girl would put up a tremendous fight, even if she did go down. English players were very frank in expressing thelr opinions. They figured that Suanne’s action hud been very shabby treatment of Miss Che Casver Daily Cridune / guy BELIEVE Me, 1d Ll HANE A REGULAR ALL-YEAR- ROUND SOB AnD ad A SUMMER VACATION in OEE vo hy tbe” TWO ‘BILLS’ IN SUZANNE LENGLEN— ANOTHER CHAPTER Ryan, the only close friend she had among the English playei They thought she should have defaulted before she eliminated Miss Ryan from the tournament {f she had any doubt that she wasn't strong enough to go through.- Miss Ryan was playing in great form and there was 4 fine chance that she would have gotten through to the finals. When she defaulted, Mile. Lenglen so forced Miss Ryan out of a chance to win the doubles championship in which they were paired. The French girl went into seclu- sion and made Jean Borotra, the captain of the French tea: do all the talking for her, He seemed to be assuming her defense under pres- sure, and it was very apparent in the actions of the other French play- ers that they regretted the affair even if they didn’t actually resent it. London newspapermen employed a lot of rhetoric and fancy phrases to say in good American that Suanne’'s relapse started when she saw Miss Kathleen McKane. They were of the opinion that the French girl thought her most formidable rival was Miss Wills and that she decided to play_after she had seen the American in action, She had ot considered Miss McKano serious- ly until she had seen her in action, Miss McKane was in most bril- lant form during the Wimbledon tournament and it is doubtful if any player could have beaten her at that time on the British courts.

WALKER FIGHT By FAIR PLAY (Copyright 1924 The Casper Tribune) NEV YORK, Aug. 28.—There is talk if Benny Leonard wins the Walker battle, he will retire bear- ing with him the prestige of aban- doning the ring at a time when he was the undefeated ght and wel- terwelght champion. Laurels of this sort would ma- terlally add to his drawing power as @ theatrical and acreen attrac- tion and this is the life upon which he is ambitious to enter. If Walker were to win—aa well he may—then Benny would _ still have his lightweight title intact and with no real contender tn sight. But it is probable fn such event he would not retire until he had done some- thing to re-establish himself in the eyes of the sporting world. Anyway, it does not look as tho Benny would be able to keep hin agreement to fight Dave Shade pro- vided he wiris over Mickey Walker. In fact, Leonard himself says that in such event he guesses he will have to forfeit his $10,000 forfeit to meet the Californian, Think of it! Just tossing ten grand away! It's a grand life, that of a champion boxer, But Leonard's contracts for motion picture and theatrical work are so much more important, financially that the for- felt money in question looks small, The honor of piloting Epinard tn the Wrench horse's match races in thit ‘ountry goes to Jockey Everett Haynes, one of the stars of the Eu ropean turf.
