Young, at the Terminal Railroad | ¢ Y. M. C. A. rooms at Union station, according to an announcement (hisi morning by Bryan Morse, secretary of the organization. The purpose |3 of the meeting is to :make arrangements for the post-season contests for | the city championship and to discuss possible plans for an intercity A series. “The leagues have just about wound their schedules.” says Secretary lorse, “and President Young feels that we should get arrangements for the post-season games for the city champlonships completed as soon_as possible. The Potomac League has yet to determine a winner, but that will be settled by Monday if nothing happens. There are some mighty good teams that have won out in the s eral leagues, and we are banking on some of the greatest games that have ®ver taken place in a post-season ghampionship schedule.” Standard Oil and Sonthern Athletic Club begin today their final series in the Potomac League for the cham- plonship. They will play again to- FoFrow and Monday, unless one of =8 teams wins two straight. South- ern Athletic Club won the champion- ghip of the first half of the season mnd Standard Oil the title in the second half. . u Annex 1 had a batting bee yesterday fternoon at the expense of Com- issioners in the Treasury League, neteen safe drives, several of which went for extra bases. Those hits, in addition to er- rors and bases on balls, enabled the winners to roll up a score of 23 runs sgainst 8 for the losing nine. Tingle. who held down second base for the winners, led at bat with four mafe wallops. Several of ths other jayers connected for two or three its. Coombs, at short for the losing club, played excellent ball, handling five assists and three put-outs with- out a slip. Bleiker of the Commis- sioners also distinguished himself by having a perfect day at bat, with five hits. The game in the Departmental Yeague resulted in a victory for Post ©Office over Agriculture by 10 to 7. The ‘winners scored five runs in the first two innings and after that held the Jead the entire way. Agriculture made a game effort in the eighth, when it chased flve men over the plate. Hout, at third, starred for the winners, getting two hits and flelding pis position brilliantly. A good game was played in the Commercial League, with Western Union emerging a victor by 3 to 1 over 'ostal Telegraph. Limerick held the osing club to three hits. 'INDIANS PICK CAMP.

Y., August 10.— Mrs. May Sutton Bundy of Los Ange- les, and Mrs. Molla Bjurstedt Mal- lory of New York, tennis champions of 1904 and 1921, will meet today for the third time this season in one of the semi-final matches of the woman's metropolitan singles championship g{l {,he courts of the Nassau Country ub. Mrs. Mallory, who won her fourth round match vesterday after a sensa- tional three. t contest with Miss Helen Wills of San Francisco, the natoinal girls' champion, has beaten Mrs. Bundy in both previous encoun- ters. She is favored to win again to- day, but the Californian is steadily improving and 1s expected to force the champion to top speed. The pairings in the semi-finals of the doubles champlonship are: Mrs. Mallory and Miss Edith Sigourney of Boston, versus Miss Wills and Mrs. Jessup, and 8. Frank H. Godfrey and Miss Katharine Gardner of Bos- ton, versus Mrs. Bundy and Mrs. Wil- liam Henry of Los Angeles. WILL RACE IN CHICAGO. wasn't so good for Williams and my- Iself. After the house had been lcounted our bit amounted to $5900, ;i\.n(l after O'Dowd got his five K_ran' hardly had enough money left to cover my training expenses. Our trouble 1y nl. began to sout an hour hefore the bout as scheduled to o on. While I was preparing for my entrance into the ring 1 learned that Mullins threat- ened to call off the bout, disappoint everybody there and hop the next train back to Néw York unless his hand-picked referee, Barney Riley, of | Albany Y., was agreed upon as the third man in the contest. Of course, we had to agree to this demand. There was no way out. We shook hands, O'Dowd and I, and the bout finally was on after T had done a lot of unneces- sary worrying. The very first clinch we went into Mike butted me over the left eye, causing a rather serious injury. y best punch is a right-hand cross, as unable to use this mitt, as I was forced to stay on the defensive, using that glove in guard- ing the left side of my face. O'Dowd continued to tear at my injured eye and he never missed a chance to butt. I would have liked to complain to the referee, but, knowing Mullins brought him all the way from Albany, I felt it would be useless. All through the bout I was covered with blood and this caused me a lot of worriment, as I thought the referee might stop the contest, thus giving O'Dowd a technical knockout. Mike kept coming so aggressively and directed his attack at my split eye so consistently that I was so busy protecting myself I was unable to do any offensive work. He never stopped ripping_ and tearing for twelve rounds. I will willingly ad- mit it was the hardest fight of my career, and T have been in with Jack Britton_four times, Ted (Kid) Lewis twice, Harry Greb three times and most of the good welters and middle- weights in America. CHICAGO, ' August 10.—Joseph A. Murphy of St. Louis, for many years identified with horse racing, has an- nounced a twelve-day running race meet will be held at the old Haw- ! thorne here from September 30 to October 13. The meeting will be on a membership bas:s, Murphy sald, through which a $100,000 fund will be raised. “The Illinois Jockey Club will take no recognition of betting,” he said. VAGRANT IS WINNER.
