At the end of the sec- ond inning the Giants had a big lead, and though the Reds pulled it down & bit théy couldn’t make serious in- roads into the lead and the Giants won as they pleased. The score was 13 ‘to' 4, and in, the last two innings so many substitutions were made in both squads that makerchift teams were in the field. The Reds 'Were. making changes in the forlorn hope of starting something and the Giants were making changes to give regulars a chance to rest and see ‘the remainder of the game from the welcome shade. It was a broiling ‘hot- day.

Are Best Choice in American Tennis | The choice of McLoughlin, Wil- liams, Bundy and Behr to defend the Davis tennis trophy, symbolic of the world’s championship, has met with countrywide approval. Some au- thorities have questioned the wisdom of overlovking W. M. Johnston, the youthful Californian, but his tendency | to_grow wild under the stress of a | tough match was held as sufficient reason’ for leaving him off the team. As it stands the four men are the I best to’be found in this country and \ will 'make a spirited defense in the final round August 13, 14 and 15 at e West Side courts on Long Island. | Smrith' 5, | score: |EASTERN ASSOCIATION. | PLANTERS PLAY HARD IN THEIR OWN YARD % N London Fans Mmost Sare ol Sceing Victory 507 New.
