SPORTS. HAS FINE CHANCE, +LIPION BELEVES American Boat Is Declared to Be in Trim for 14th Contest for Cup. BY TOM HORGAN, Associnted Press Staff Writer, EWPORT, R. I, September 13.—The fourteenth con- test for the America’s Cup | attracted a mighty fleet | of yachts today. Shamrock V, Sir Thomas Lip- ton’s fifth challenger for the famed America’s Cup, and Enter- prise, Harold S. Vanderbilt's de- fender, in the first of a series of races, had to sail 30 miles over the | open ocean, 15 miles to windward or leeward, from a starting buoy 8 miles off Brenton Reef Light- ship, and return. The crews of both sloops were opti- mistic. Sir Thomas characteristically was | cheerful. “I think my chances are better than | ever before,” he said. “Conditions are | as fair as possible. In my 30 years of | pursuing the elusive trophy I have al- | ways subscribed to the slogan, ‘May the | est boat win,’ and may I add ‘May the best boat be Shamrock V.'” Vanderbil{ Also Cheerful. Harold 8. Vanderbilt, skipper of the defender of the hundred-guinea cup, which was won by the yacht America in 1851, and which has since cost millions in challenge and defense, was also cheerful. “It seems fitting,” he said, “to state that the afterguards and crews of both yachts are tuned to a high pitch- and ready for the starting gun. The friend- | lest reiations exist between us and our adversaries are the finest sportsmen we know. We are looking forward to a close, keen, hard-fought series of races.” The greatest yachting fleet ever seen in Newport Harbor was on hand. Pala- tial boats came from all along the At- lantic Coast. The schooner Awenishe of Liverpool, Nova Scotia, came from the l;rtmme provinces in less than three ys. ‘What wagers were made were largely even-money J‘ropo-ltlons, but when odds were given they usually favored Enter- PrThe sleck green sloop, fiying the red hand of Ulster from her topmast, entered the international test ..yachting enthusiasts insisted she would not mind anything King Neptune could . .offer her on the open ocean course.

Race Unchanged : MarberryShines DOEG -OR SHIELDS T0 WEAR CROWN Former Eliminates Champion Tilden, While Latter Conquers Wood. By the Assoclated Press. OREST HILLS, N. Y., Sep- tember 13.—Gone for this year if not forever is Big Bill Tilden’s chance of wih- ning the national tennis singles championship more times than any other man. Either Johnny Doeg or Frank Shields is the next champion. Tilden failed yesterday in a bid fof his eighth American title which would have broken a tie with two great cham- plons of the past, Richard D. Sears and William A. Larned. Doeg beat Tilden 10—8, 6—8, 3—6, 12—10, and today the 21-year-old Doeg encounters Shields, a New York young- ster ;wn years his junior, in the final round. Shields beat Sidney Wood, New York sensation, 6—2, 6—3, 4—8, 6—3. Nothing could present much more of a contrast to last year's final when Tilden, then 36, and his old friend and comrade, Francis T. Hunter, a year younger, met in the final round after fighting’ their way through a field of youthful challengers. Doeg this year disposed of both of these veteran stars, America's first and second ranking players, in sucocessive days. ‘Tilden’s right leg gave him almost as much trouble as service did in great match . He lll:l.ped badly throughout the last three sets. Even Tilden's staunchest riers feel that his days in the fo it of the game are numbered now that the youngsters have gomn his : Earlier this year Shields defeated h! at Southampton and CHff Sutter out- played him at Rye in the match which ended in Tilden’s default in protest against the attitude of the gallery. ’s 20 aces against Tilden's 14 called attention to one of the atest services ever seen. In fact both Doeg and Shields, serving with terrific force, fencing capably from the back court, and following in at every opportunity for killing volleys, have stirred a that the United States at last had dis- covered some players who can regain the Davis cug Gill Is in Final Of Vets’ Tennis FOREST HILLS, N. Y., September 13.—Comdr. C. C. Gill, U. 8. N,, well THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., ERE you see the defenders of the America’s Cup, the good sloop Enterprise and her skipper, Harold 8. Vander- bilt. They have to beat not only the Shamrock V and that popular 80-year-old Irishman, Sir Thomas Lipton, but also public opinion, which is strongly favoring the Brit- ish entry in this series of races for a cup won by the America when 8ir Thomas was 1 year old. Personally, I don’t see why every- 1s rooting for Sir Thomas. The old boy is a good loser, but he gets 80 darn much advertising from these DeFENDER, OF THE “AMERICAS CUP attempts at lifting the “Old Mug” that the total sales of Sir T's tea must make the dough he spends on his Shamrocks seem like nothing at all. I'm for the Enterprise every time, even if it is twice as easy to draw the smiling old Irishman with his goatee and polka-dot tie as to draw Harold 8. Vanderbilt, Har- vard '07. Ex-Commodore Vanderbilt, whose money won the “Battle of the Mil- lions” from the Morgan syndicate, owner of the Weetamoe, is associated with Vice Commodore Aldrich, also Harvard '07, in command of the Enterprise. The slim queen of the seas, which is racing the Shamrock V in a series of best four out of sev- en races off Newport, is the smallest of the four that sought to gain that honor, and has a flexible mast of shining duralumin, 168 feet long, costing $50,000, to support her 40 sails of one kind or another. The Enterprise was named (and christened by Mrs. Aldrich with a bottle of champagne) after a little United States Navy schooner which slapped the Bey of Tunis around in a battle off the Northern Coast of Africa many years ago. Very fast in a light breeze, as is the Sham- rock V, she was designed by Star- ling Burgess and has several inno- vations in yacht building which make her a very fast boat.

United States Syndicate’s nte: terprise. intervene at any time Distances and courses—Th! windward-leeward, 15 miles each HIS year has had its share of upsets, but the defeat of Bill ‘Tilden, the tennis player in the world, by Johnny Doeg of California at Forest Hills, Long Island, yesterday leads the lst. The general dope was that Tilden and Sydney Wood would battle out Sat- urday'’s final round, slthough Frank Shields was given almost an even chance against Wood. But Doeg, on his season’s play, was not rated within 10 kilometers of Big Bill, who on Thursday looked to be the Tilden of old. This is where the years take their toll—always in unexpected places. Doeg played fine tennis and suddenly the Tilden of Friday was not the Tilden of Thursday or the Tilden of Wimble- dom. So the tall one, who won the title 10 years ago, will not get his chance to break all records and win his eighth crown after all, just when he looked to be one of the surest tips of the year. Now Shields and Doeg, two of the younger set, fight it out. The survival of Tommy Armour and Gene Sarazen in the final of the P.G. A. was along the line of form. They were two of the leading favorites from the start, so there was no upset here. Both can play golf and both can fight it out to the finish, but Armour is always a hard one to take. It's Different Up in Front, ALMOET every club that has slipped into the lead in the National League race this season has promptly de- veloped a loud wheeze and started to buckle up. The strain of setting the pace has told its story. In the old days Walter Hagen never wanted to be in front of any open championship until the last round. Bobby Jones has felt the same way about it. There is some- thing in pace setting that works upon the nerves and kills off freedom of ac- tion. A lot has been written about the gameness of coming from behind. But there is even more gameness needed in front running. The runner from be- hind has a target to shoot at. The leader hasn't. Brooklyn had the lead and blew wide open. Chicago took the lead and blew even wider. ‘There isn't much time left, but the team in front will be under the bigger strain. In the National League the team leading the last day—the team saving | its spurt for the last game or two—may ‘be the only one ~apable of sticking. No |one can tell now which team that will |be. There have been so manv sudden | reversals in the older league this season that it is impossible to bank on the con- sistency of any single entry. “Vhen four clubs have remained almost even, less than a series apart, from April to the middle of September, it takes a double- Jointed soothsayer to say what will hap- ven through the dust of the stretch. Just at present St. Louis and Brooklyn seem to have the mm&!:vnln( and the better chance. But only a Buess.

Practically 80 per cent of their countrymen are pulling for Sir Thomas Lipton and his Sham- rock V.

It might have made a big difference in the final attitude of the crowd. As it was, in spite of his early oratory, he showed that he wasn’t close to Mc- Larnin’s class. Just one good McLarnin punch early in the third round was all that Singer needed to be convinced that he had made a serious mistake and | that within an extremely short time he was going to have his head knocked off. The difference in weight was only 414 pounds, so that wasn't a killing handi- cap. But those rights and lefts that McLarnin started firing at Singer's head were something else again. ‘The lightweight champion had faced no barrage like this before, and he proved quickly *that he didn’t like it, even a little. It took just one round of McLarnin aggressiveness to show that Singer was still far from being a great fighter, a fighter close to McLarnin’s class. Above everything else he lacked the set, grim determination to win that McLarnin carried into action, and this is a big gnrl of any ring war. It might be said in Singer's behalf that about the same thing might hap- pn to a lot of the best welterweights f th;)' could be lured within McLarnin's reac!

With the score tied they poled out four hits which, with a Giant er- ror, produced three runs. Hack Hits Another. Chicago’s slugging Cubs had little trouble in holding their slim lead. They hit early and late in their first game against the Phillles and with Hack Wiison's forty-ninth home run in the second #nd a six-run rally in the sixth as the high spots, they came out with & 17-to-4 triumph. Brooklyn downed Cincinnati almost as easlly. The Robins made a fast start against Ray Kolp and finished their part of the scoring in their 7-to-3 victory in five innings as Lopez and ‘Wright hit timely homers. Ray Moss had only one bad inning. as he held the Reds to eight hits, four of the blows and all the Cincinnati runs com- ing in the sixth. ‘Babe Ruth continued his pursuit of Wilson in the season’s home run race and furnished the one ray of light for the New York Yankees as they dropped completely out of the American League pennant chase. The Babe hit homer No. 46 in the third inning, but his teammates’ errors enabled the Detroit Tigers to stay in the running and finally win out in a ninth-inning rally, 5 to 4. The Yanks lost a half game to the Philadelphia Athletics, who were idle for a second day, and at the same time lost their chance of finithing better than a half game behind the world champions. Griffs Blow Chance. ‘Washington gained the same amount of ground and once more is six and one-half games behind the leaders. Off to a six-run lead in the first two in- nings, the Senators barely staggered through to an 8-to-7 victory over the Chicago White Sox. Two games of no particular impor- tance in the standings went 10 innings and both were decided by 5-to-4 scores. The Boston Braves came from behind to defeat the Pittsburgh Pirates by that margin as Chatham and Spohrer found Larry French for doubles in the tenth. Boston's other team, the Red Sox, scored four times in the ninth to tie the score against the St. Louis Browns as Phil Todt hit a last-minute homer, only to have the Browns come back for their fifth run in the extra inning.

Although driven from the hill yes- | terday when the White Sox all but wrested from the Nationals the opener of a four-game series here, Marberry nevertheless was credited with the vic- tory. It was his fifteenth of the year and his eleventh win in succession. Three more successive triumphs and Marberry will have surpassed the 1920 record of 13 wins in & row hung up by Wesley Ferrell, star of the Indian’s mound staff. . Marberry has not been charged with & pitching defeat since the Indians That was. Bis nira. siralght, peating. at was s ht beating. His first dedeat of the campalgn came after he had won three times in a row. The White Sox then toppled him. He came back to trounce the Red Sox, then lost to the Yankees and the Athletics before bowing to the Tribe, During his eleven-game winning streak, Marberry has turned back every one of the Washington club's rivals. He has licked the Indians twice and has done the same to the Tigers, Yan- kees and White Sox. He has downed the St. Louis, Philadelphia and Bos- ton clubs once each. Quite a record for this veteran who not so long ago was regarded as nothing more than a relief pitcher. ARBERRY was rather fortunate in checking up his eleventh straight win yesterday, for after he seemed to have the game tucked away the White Sox rose to chase him from the hill with a powerful attack, then thumped Lioyd Brown and Irving Had- tians “were ‘In Bostission of an 3-tard possession of an 8- advantage when the White Sox pited fire on Marberry in the sevent) ning. So determined was the Bush. gl::l,’]l tona!n Iu{hfib’ that the y triumpl only 8 to 7. And to do that well they had to kill off three White Sox runners at the plate, two ‘:m&’f eighth inning and one in the e i ptd 5o s e i wo frames ve hits Al Thomas and three off Ga - were out and the five runs in sec- ond came after two retlumtnfiu Then Braxton settled and pitched fine ball, two_errors backing two hits to give the Nationals two runs after two were out in the seventh. T - ton gave way to a pinch-batter in the seventh, Ed Walsh and a reeruit from Littlerock, Jim Moore, pitched & good round each. ARBERRY, who had yielded but five hits in the first six Innlng lost his cunning in the seven after one was out and the White Sox, with five hits, the last a homer, hit into the lower left fleld stand by Rey- no;éd:‘,r ;ollemd five runs. Ty was hit by the first batter to face him in the eighth so Brown im- mediately was sent to the big fellow’s relief. Two batters faced Brown and both hit. Mullavey, pinch-batter for Ryan, got the second hit off the left- hander and it meant a run. Hadley ‘was ordered to relieve Brown. Fother- gill patted for Crouse and whacked Hadley for a single, sending over an- other run that left the White Sox only one back of the Nationals. ‘This one run was in the keeping of Mullavey, pushed to third base by Pothergill's hit. Mullavey, though, was caught at the plate when Tate grounded to Myer and Fothergill was cut down at the counting block as he endeavored to score from second as Cissell singled, the fifth hit of the inning.
