Miami Park, Toledo, Ohio, Aug. 5 (By Associated Press).—Ned- da, the handsome daughter of At- lantic Express and Pleasant Thought made Grand Circuit harness horse history here yesterday afternoon by trotting a faultless mile in 1:59 1-4 without pacemakers. Over what Grand Circunit drivers said was the fastest track yet seen here, the little daughter of Atlantic finished under the whip by 0:29 1-2, 0:591-4, 1:291-2 59 1-4 Harry Fleming, who rose from a sick bed to drive the exhibition mile, decided to discard the running mate because of Nedda's extreme nervous- ne and for the same reason the mare will be utilized for exhibition purposes only, Fleming said. The world's trotting record is 1:58 1-2 made hy Lou Dillon, accom- panied by two running mates, and the record established bhy Nedda without pacemakers is considered by harness horsemen a finer perform- ance for this reason Prince Loree won the Elks' Club Stake, 2:08 trot, one heat of which was raced Thursday, by taking the second heat yesterday.

Patterson Changes His Plans Regarding a World's Title Tennis ,\L’llh'h With W. T. Tilden. Seabright, N. J., Aug. 5.—Gerald L Patterson of tt Australia Davis Cup team has stated that he had de- cided to withdraw his suggestion of a challenge match with Wilflam T Tilden 2d for the world's tennis title Patterson won the title which the International Tennis Federation con- fers upon the Wimbledon tournament, and it was his idea originally not to | claim the honor unless he could de- feat America’s foremost player. The United States does not officially rec- ognize the Wimbledon tourney as con- stituting a world championship. Pat- terson has now decided, however, that | inasmuch he intends to play for | the American championship, the win- ner of that tournament can rightly claim to be the world's champion, and a special match would be superfluous. Patterson agrees swith American opi that a world's title bestowed competition of America’s leading players is no title at all as challenge ior without the BENTLY QUITS ORIOLES Newark, N.

J., Aug. 5.—If doubts have existed as téb the tennis form of Willlam M. Johnston of San Fran- cisco they were summarily removed yesterday afternoon, when for the sécond year in succession, he defeated Richard Norris Williams 2d of Long- wood for the Seabright Bowl in the final round of the invitation tourna- ment at the Seabright Tennis and Cricket Club. Last year Johnston heat Williams in three straight sets and this year he repeated the per- formance. The scores were 6—0, 6—2, 6—3. The Californian's game was going as strongly as ever it was when he was winning national champlionships, and the Davis Cup looks-as safe for 1922 as though the name of the United States were already engraved on it. Only Tilden in all the world could have beaten Johnston yester- day, and Tilden would have had to do some lively stepping. Johnston was a victor in the doubles, too. He and James O.

Y., Aug..5.— Harry Payne Whitney has received a huge ffer for Whiskaway, twice con- queror of Morvich and winner of the Kentucky Special for three-year-olds, from Charles W. Clark, son of former Senator W. A. Clark of Montana. Mr. Whitney would not state the amount of the offer, but it is understood to be $125,000. “Mr. Clark made me the offer be- fore he sailed for Europe a few days ago,”” said Mr. Whitney yesterday. “He said that if I decided to accept 1 could wireless him at sea or cable him later and he would immediately I have the offer under consideration and expect to dé- cide in a day or two.” 12 v COBB STILLLEADS IN BATTING RAGE Veteran Suffers Loss of Three Points During the Past Week Chicago, Aug. B5.—(By Associated Fress)—Ty Cobb, the Detroit Ameri- can's pllet, continues to sock the pall with marked consistency, while George BSisler, the Bt. Louls star, is kept out of the game by iliness. How- Bisler fared better than the Tiger leader during the last week, as he made a gain of one point over his marke of the previous week by play- ing in three games. Cobb, on the other hand, suffered a loss of three points in his last six games, according to batting averages released today, and which include games of last Wednes- day. + Cobb is topping the league list with an average of .415 comparéd with 418 a week ago, while Sisler eon- tinues to be runner up with .405, & gain of one point over his mark of last week. Speaker and Heilmann. The other two members of the big league although not in the .400 class, are tagging along behind the leadling pair, Tris Speaker, manager of the Indians, being third with .364, and Harry Heilmann of the Tigers with .357, each of whom has made rapid strides toward the top rung. Blue Passes Sisler, Blue, of the Tigers, took the hon- ors of best run getter from Sisler, by registering 91 tallies, and Ken Wil- liams, Sisler's teammate, deprived George of the total base honors, by boosting his total to 236, tight better than Sisler's record. Hoéwéver, Sisler's mark of 34 stolen bases, is far above that of any other player.’ Williams On Rampage. Ken Willlams gave the home run hitters something to shoot at when ne cracked out six homers in as many days, and ran his string of four base blows to 28, giving him the fead for the season among the major league home run clouters, his closest rival being Rogers Hornsby, of the St. Louis Nationals, who held the honor for several weeks. “‘Tillie” Walker, of the Athletics, has bagged 25 four-bag- gers, and Babe Ruth is training the duet with 19. Hornsy Loses Some Points. Rogers Hornsby, star of the Cardi- nals, was deprived of some of his honors during the last week, although he continued to lead the batters of the National league, with an average of .391. This, however, is a falling off of several points from his mark of a week ago. He bagged only one circuit drive and brought his string of four basers to 27, Carey Shows Speed. Max Carey, the speedy outfielder of the Pirates, also took another honer from the St. Louis favorite, when he showed a sudden burst of speed and stepped out in front as a run getter. Max scored 87 times, while Hornsby's total is 86. Carey also stole four more bases, and is showing the way to the base stealers with 31 thefts. Hornsby, however, in addition to ‘| being the leading batsman and home run hitter in the league, has a good grip on the total base record with a wark of .280. ‘His hits include, be- sides his homers, 30 doubles and sev- en triples.
