Much action is promised in the eight-round semi-windup between Johnny Reno, former U. S. 8. Nevada sailor. who held a Navy junior light- weight title, and Bobby Garcia, feather champion of the 3d Army Corps. Reno is a shifty boxer, while Garcia {s more of the rugged type of fizhter.

LITTLE LESSONS FOR THE GOLFER ly George O'Neil. Many golfers spoil their chances for good shots by improperly exe- cuting the pivot. The pivot is an equal” of the golf trinity—grip, pivot and swing. I put it second, ‘bechuse the swing cannot be pro- ductive of a far-fiying ball unless the pivot is rightly accomplished. The turning of the body must be made at just the right time, when the club is being tnken up, and the return swing of the bedy, on the @own stroke of the club, must not akead of the clubhead.

In addition to the foot ball laurels earned last fall, men of the east coast expeditionary force are in possession of the service base ball championship. This latter title was garnered at Amer- ican League Park yesterday when the Marine diamond _athletes, tutored by John O'Rellly, Georgetown University base ball mentor, overcame the 3d Corps proteges of Buck Herzog, ex-Na- tional Leaguer, 5 to 3, In the decisive game of a series of three. The battle was fought In the presence of a distinguished throng. Among the more than 10,000 spectators were Sec- retary of War Weeks, who tossed out |the first ball; Gen. Pershing, and a ihost of other general officers on the Army side. In the marine contingent, headed by Secretary of the Navy Denby, were Maj. Gen. Lejeune, commandant of the Marides; Brig. Gen. Butler, Quantico camp commander, and many naval and’ marine officers of high rank. With Watson outpitching Henderson, the Army's ace, the Marines won handily. An error in the.second inning permitted the Army to score first and another miscue in the foyrth gave the doughboys another counter after the Marines had made two in the third, by mixing three safetles with the soldiers’ faulty fielding. - Then the Marines got busy and chased a pair of markers home in the fifth and one more in the sixth. Asmy managed to count in the sixth, also. WILDE WL VIST 0.5, FOR FGHT WITH VLA NEW YORK, September 18.—Jimmy Wilde of England, world flyweight boxing champion, has accepted terms for a title contest in this country with Pancho Villa, Filipino sensation,| who captured the American flyweight| title by scoring.a technical knockout| over Johmmy Buff, the former title- holder. A SR AT This announcement .was made by Dave Driscoll, matchmaker o«for the! Ebbetts-McKeever Company, Wwhich operates Ebbetts Field, Villa already has agreed.to terms. ‘The dlt} for the contest has not been - set,” Driscoll ' declared, but he considers it doubtful whether Wilde could reach ‘this country amd get. into condition before the outdoor season closes. He gave no indication as to ATIONALS INFIELD STARS | e mice srom | IN DEFEATING TYGERS, 6-2 D ETROIT, September 18—If the base ball followers of Washington could have seen the Nationals perform on Navin Field here yes- |w, terday thty probably would ask why Washington is what it is “";‘fl’l“ today, as far as its chances of winning the pennant are concerned. Never, on any day during the current season, has there been infield work shown | 0 "0 50y on the local lot that could quite come up to the standard.of that flashed |Boston by Joe Judge, Stanley Harris, Roger Peckinpaugh and La Motte here on Sunday. It can be described as scintillating, without the least misuse of the word. Before the present season open ronounced the Washington team ed several men, who are able critics, the best balanced in_the American eague. One who had this opinion was Tyrus Raymond Cobb. Several said that the Natlonals® in- fleld was the best in base ball. Tyrus Raymond Cobb thought that also. For these reasons Washingign was sus- pected of being the dark horse in the American League race and there were ; a large number of people who ex- pected to see tMe Nationals, and no other team, finish in front in Oc»i( tober. ‘That, of course, will not happen this year, but it might have happened if the Washington infleld had per- formed all seagon as it did here yes- terday. Four double plays are cred- ited “to the Nationals’ first defense. Not one of these was an easy double play. They were as difficult as they were spectacular and on two other chances/the infield came near making double killingB. Mogridge Pitches Well George Mogridge pitched smart base ball, as Mogridge always does when pitching againgst Detroit, but is work would not have countdd as heavily had the infield work been other than it was. Mogridge himself was an important | factor in the attack. in the third and bases were emptyv when Mogridge came to bat. The mob settled back and scored a third out. Mogridge is probably the lenst im- pressive sight we have ever seen at the home plate, uniess you insist on bracketing him with Slim Harris of Philadelphia. When he came up in the third yesterday he wore an old sweater and a bored look. Neverthe- lcss, Dauss could not control his de- livery for this object and he walked Mogridge. That was the turning point In the ball game, for Dauss be- came 'upset and also walked Judge. Harris then singled. Rice doubled and Goslin singled, a combination that produced four runs. As a mat- ter of recorded fact, Mogridgg would have nesded only three of fhose to win the Sunday game. ‘Wnshington makes Its last appear- ance of the season here this after- noon. Mogridge’s only bad inning was the ninth. Stanley Harris twice came to his rescue. He went back on the grass and threw out Cutshaw after the veteran’s drive smashed off Mogridge's shins and apparently roll- ed for a single, and he flelded Haney's driver behind second and tossed to Peckinpaugh for a force-out. ending the game. This was a great play, a close one, and it nearly caused a small riot. Cobh, Veach and Fothergill went hitless until the ninth, when Fother- gill doubled. Cobb and Veach, how- ever, continued hitless. Blue still §s out of the Detrolt line- up, Haney contlnuing to sub at first. Haney has played first, second, short and third for Detroit this sea- son. George Cutshaw, National League discard, got three hits off Mogridge in four times at bat. He whs lge only Tyger who solved’ Mogridse. Harris' great play in the ninth robbed Cutshaw of a perfect day at bat. Had 1t mot been for a running catch of Mogridge's line drive by Cutshaw in the fourth the pitcher would have reached first base four times. He got Two were out | L] conmmBang onlin, 1. .

Time of game—1 hour and 55 minutes, there three times on a walk, error and single. Sunday was a cold day. The crowd was large. A great many overcoats were given a pre-season workout. Cobb meeds two more hits to equal Wee Willie Keeler's record of getting 200 or more hits in efght different sea- sons. The nearest Cobb came to get- ting a hit off Mogridge on Sunday was on his fly to left in the sixth. Goslin got the ball and then fumble it and was charged with an. ergor. Cobb has made 200 or more hits in seven different seasons. Rice killed a hit for Fotherglll when he made a running catch, picking the balls off his ankles 1 short center. Mogridge's control failed him at times, but on those occasions he walked about, tossed, the ball to the inflelders and stalled generally. Fi- nally Tommy Connolly walked to the pitcher's box and told Mogridge to quit these tactics ar leave the game. By that time Mogridge had his control back. Dauss pitched the first seven in- nings. A pinch hitter then worked for him and Olsen finished the game. Twice in two days has Olsen reileved veteran pitchers. On Saturday it was Oldham. Since Boston beat Chicago yesterday, the fact that Washington trimmed Detroit did not reduce the lead of the Tygers over the White Sox for third piace money.

Under 2 sun_that has made good weather for base ball, tennis, golf, polo and swimming, the moleskin warriors of the country’s leading in- stitutiens of learning have been limbering up now for two weeks.

Fisher at Harvard also is quoted as being well satisfied with his prospects. One hundred and six- teen men reported for the Crimson squad in response to the first call. At Cornell Gil Doble is said to be cheer- fully rubbing hishands with the pos- sibility of a strong eleven to be con- structed around five veterans from last vear's vassity. The line is his problem. Fordham is the only New York city representative that is lagging at the barrier. Tentative lineups were picked late last week while two score at Columbla and an army of aspirants at New York University were actively | at_work. The first call at Brown University will be sounded today.

Most of them have done a good deal of conditioning while on the summer cruise, and, in this they will have an advantage over most of their college opponents. To the squad of old players will While no real star has been found number, both in the backfield and lin be added the pick of the new class. among the newcomers, there are a e, who give promise of great useful- ness in years to come. Several, in fact, look good enough to get a try- out in some of the smaller games, at least. Upon the whole, there is much confi- dence at the Naval Academy, and a looking forward to a great season for Navy foot ball. While the losses by graduation were serious, a great many plavers Rave been coming to the front and will have their real opportunity during the coming sea- son. Tentative Backfleld Pleked. The backfleld has given the coaches no particular worry, material being abundant along this line, and it now looks as if the holes in the line will be filled in a satisfactory manner. In fact, a tentative eleven now formed has considerable more weight among ¢ the forwards than any Navy line in recent years. It is generally thought that the first choice backfleld at the start of the season will be made up of Hamilton, Conroy. McKee and Barchet. This is_a y_fast combiuation, but not particularly heavy, and jt lacks a kicker. However, every member of it is_a real veteran and has shown his ability in many hard contests, In- TEANS TEANS CHISE FOREASTHES CLASH NEW YORK, September 18.—On the team that will represent the east in the east-west tennis matches at the Westside Club, at Forest Hills, ¥ri- day and Saturday, probably 'wiil be, in addition to Capt. R. Norris Williami William T. Tilden of Philadelphia. Vincent Richards-of Yonkers a&nd Francis T. Hunter of New York. Capt. Willlam M.

A match bef n Mrs. Molla- Bjur- cluding those against the Army. Conroy, captain of the team. and Barchet, the Navy's most brilliant runner, were first choices during the whole season. Hamilton has for two seasons alternated with Cruise as an- | other regular back, and McKee made the varsity two vears ago, his first in the academy, but dropped down a peg last season only because Bar- chet developed such notable bril- liancy as a runner. Good Second-String Men. A second-string backfield would be composed of Cullen, O'Regan, Devens and Norris. Cullen is a thick-set youth, who has had much experience both before and since entering the academy. He is a fair punter. and many think he has an_ excellent chance of displacing McKee before the season has progressed very far. Devens and O'Regan weigh around 175 pounds each and are quite fast. Devens came to the front toward the latter part of last season because in practice. Norris is young but is believed to have possibilities of de- veloping into a brilliant running back. Right now two other complete sets of backs could be picked, and there are others who will bear watching. Among the candidates from the new class, Shapley, Ward and Sommers have attracted attention. Shapley, weighing 1756 pounds and very fast, is from Peddie. Sommers, smaller, but even faster, played with Frankford High last year, and Ward made quijte a reputation at Marjetta. He is bullt much along the lines of Barchet, the Navy's star runner. Other Regulars Avatlable. Parr and Taylor, the regular ends of last year, will start again. while Bolles will be at left tackle and Carney at left guard.. By common consent, Matthews, the heavyweight boxer, will start at center, though there are several other good men.
