WOMEN NOW SEEKING ATHLETIC LAURELS Goll and Tennis Stars Try to Keep Up With Men New York, July 19.—Triumphant over Europe in polo, boxing, tennis and golf, America looks no longer for worlds to conquer in masculine ath- letic competition. The nation waits ‘0 see whether its women golf and tennis stars will finish off with vic- tories the most successful season in in- \ernational sports this country ever hne.w To them falls the task of meeting on home soil the woman tennis queen oL the world, Susane Lenglen, of tyance, and the titular leader of fem.- inine golfers, Miss Cecil Leitch of Great Britain. Both of these Burop- ecan experts already have repulsed a foreign invasion of women ranking nighet in American tennis and golf wcmpetition. The dazzling Mlle Lenglen triumph- ed only a few weeks ago over Mra. iolla Bjurstedt Mallory, long a cham- pion in the United States. The pre- vious year she had beaten a conqueror of Mrs, Mallory. And in betweea these important victories she sand wiched numerous contests that put her at the head of the field of wom- €n tennis players. Miss Leitch only a few weeks ago defeated the woman golf champion ¢f the United States, Miss Alexa Surling of Atlanta. Next month she will sail for America to take part in open tournaments. With her will be her sister, Edith, a high rankings British golfer, and Doris E. Cham- Ders. They expect to go down ‘o Miss Stirling’s home town and show the folks how the conqueror of the American champion looks on the inks. The keenest feminine tennis stars of the country are hard at work in preparation for Mle. Lenglen, who comes to America heralded by such udjectives as incomparable , marvel- ous and dazzling, and tennis fans are liording their sheckles to see Susane Lenglen just as fight fans stored them up to get a look at the other capti- vating French athlete, Georges Car- pentief, when he met Jack Dempsey on July 2. Like Georges, Mlle Lenglen is a bit different from our athletes. Georzes was described by an English writer s a Greek god with a punch. Mlle Lenglen seems to be a Greek dancer with a tennis racquet. No camera n.an who snaps her with her feet less than 24 inches off the ground, racquet crashing forward accurately, dares zephyr but a tornado on tiptoe. It would be too dull, too unlike the flashy French woman. She is no zephyr but a ternado on tiutoe. Out on the Pacific coast Mrs. May Sutton Bundy, woman champion in vears gone by, has emerged from re- tirement and gone into training to nieet Mlle. Lenglen. Another Cali- fapnian, Miss Mary K. Brown, likewise & preparing to face the Gallic invader. Mrs. Mallory and Miss Eleanor Goss of New York are other mainstays of American hopes to defeat the French &enius of the court who will compet> ‘n the national woman's champion- <hip matches and other Americar tournaments. RECRUIT TWIRLER DOES GREAT WORK Pcter Donahue of Cincinnati Allows But Fouf Hits In His First Big League Contest New York, July 19.—The feat of pitching a tour hit games in his first appearane in the major leagues was virtually performed yesterday by Pet- er Donahue, a Cincinnati 3 Donahue who eame from Christian university. Texas, held Philadelphia to four scattered hits in 8 2-3 innings after th: Quakers had battered Mar- quard out of the box. Donahue struck out four men and passed three. Another recruit to step in the lime- light was Catcher Peters of the Phila- delphia Nationals, who made his sec- ond hom: run in two successive games. He won the game with hia first home run but yesterday it made little difference as the Reds had a large leal. Babe Ruth’s 36th home run of tha season vestcrday was the longest hit of his carcer—560 feet. It was made in Detroit where Heilman of the Tig- y was credited with a 610 foot home run, After pitching eight straight victor- les for the Philadelphia Americans, Harris lost vesterday to St. Louis al- though he yielded only five hits to the Browns in 7 2-3 innings. The Browns bunched three hits with two puss un error and a hit baseman for four runa. JIOBEY BAKER'S FTUNERAL. Military Services for Former Prince- ton Athletic Marvel.

STITCHES TAKEN IN HEART, STILL LIVES Rare Operation Performed in Brooklyn Hospital New York, July 19.—Frank Far-| ino. 16 years old, was sent to Holy Family hospital, Brooklyn, yesterday with a knife wound in his heart, the result of an accident in which he fell upon a long knife he was using. He was unconscious, and the ambu- lance surgeon who was attending him believed he could not live more than fiftcen minutes. But Farino was alive last night, having survived an operation, which, according to the surgeons who performed it, has been resorted to only twice previously in the history of surgery. The perfora- tion in the boy’s heart was stitched. The operation, which required ex- treme delicacy in the use of the sur- gical needles and anaesthetics, ~con- sisted of opening the boy's chest and placing four stitches in the torn heart muscles. When the boy was taken into the hospital Dr. James M. Downey of 381 Clinton street, a visiting surgeon, and Dr. George J. Doyle, house surgeon, went to the emergency ward to ex- amine him. The wound on the sur- face of the chest was merely a nar- row one, but inside the chest wall it was found that the knife, the blade of which was seventeen inches long, had opened the heart. As they con- tinued the examination Farino's respi- ration changed to a series of gasps. Quickly the two surgeons went to work. They had the boy taken up to the operating room. An anaesthetic was administered and then the cut through the chest wall was made. Next they attacked the most serious problem in the operation. They had to wait until the heart was contracted to place a stitch. The contraction came at the end of each full beat, but voung Farino had lost so much blood and was so weak that the movement of the heart was scarcely noticeable. At the end of fifteen minutes, how- ever, the operation was completed and the boy was taken from the operat- ing room to recover from the anacs- thetic. Irast night he was showing improvement and had a temperature of 99 1-2 and a pulse of 110. He was permitted to have orange juice and cracked ice. Farino, whose home is at 553 Union street, is employed as a paper sorter for Josepl Marrone of 179 Joralemon street, at the department of street cleaning dump at the foot of Sixth street. The knife upon which he fell is used in opening bundles of waste paper and rags. JUVENILE FOLLIES SCORE BIG HIT AT THE LYCEUM Those who have had the opportunity to see the children in the “Juvenile Follies of 1921" at the Lyceum theater vesterday were undoubtedly entertain- ed. There are twenty youngsters in the “Follies,” the oldest is 15 and the youngest about 3 years. Miss Baby Bernice made a hit when she sang the old song “Wee Wee Marie.” All the latest popular songs were sung by other members of the company proving their popularity. Miss Rita sang the latest song success My Yoming Lullaby.” The Ziras gave an exhibition of juggling. Jack McGowan did some clever playing on his banjo, also with the saxophone. McNally and Ashton kept the audience in laughter. Viola Dana was starred in her latest picture “Puppets of Fate.” It is a story dealing with New York life and Italy. It has many laughs. Other pictures of merit will complete the program for the first half of this week. The last of this week Jack London’s latest pic- ture “The Little Fool” will be the headline attraction PERSONAL. ‘Walter Hudson is visiting at Lake- | ville, New Jersey. Mrs. Arthur G.

Washington, July 19.—Charles Hall of Birmingham, one of the entrants in he National Open Golf championship, has a caddie who takes the cake for faithtulness. Just as the Birmingham player was teeing off yesterday he noticed a forlorn, unkempt little darky watching him intently. To his surprise he recognized his favorite club-carrier trom his home club. ‘‘How did you get here?” Hall asked when he recovered from the surprise, ‘‘Ah beat mah way, suh. Yassub, on'a freight train, suh.” Should Hall be a winner, there is one caddie who will be fittingly rewarded for faithful service. RUNS FOR WE! JULY 17-23 American Ls S. M. T.

Quick Results- Herald Classified Advt: ‘Here’s why CAMELS are the quality cigarette ECAUSE we put the utmost quality into this one brand. Camels are as good as it’s pos- sible for skill, money and lifelong knowledge of fine tobaccos to make a cigarette. Nothing is too good for Camels. ‘And bear this in mind! Everything is done to'make Camels the best cigarette it’s possible to buy. Nothing is done simply for show. Take the Camel package for instance. It’s the most perfect packing science can devise to pro- tect cigarettes and keep them fresh. Heavy paper —secure foil wrapping—revenue stamp to seal the fold and make the package air-tight. But there’s nothing flashy about it. You’ll find no extra wrappers. No frills or furbelows. Such things do not improve the smoke any more than premiums or coupons. And remember—you must pay their extra cost or get lowered quality. If you want the smoothest, mellowest, mildest cigarette you can imagine—and one entirely free from cigaretty aftertaste, It’s Camels for you.
