The invitations will be extended to Dempsey by the Turkish Sports Federation, It Hap;e—l; w!n The AUSTRALIANS EVEN WITH FRENCH Each Team Wins a Match in Davis Gup Semi-Finals Boston, Aug, 11,—France and Aus- tralla broke yesterday the Longwood Cricket club tennis courts in their first day's play in the Davis Cup semi-finals. Two matches were played, each extending through five hard-fought and often brilllantly played sets, the French winner being Henri Cochet, while Australia’s col- ors were upheld by Gerald Patterson, who made a startling finish after tralling his opponent for the first two sets, Andre Cobert was the forced “Patterson to go the limit. He caught Patterson off his game and waded into the match to win the first two sets by 6—4 and 6-—3 scores, but then was unable to continue his pace. In the third set Patterson began to recover some of his form and, while never really at his best, he was able to wear the I"renchman down and win the match by taking the ‘last three sets by 6-—3, G-—4, and 6—4 scores. Patterson was a one-sided favorite before the match, but appeared much worrfed and it was a long time before he even began to approach his stride. The Frenchman started in at the top of a very effective game, but he was unable to hold his speed. Ifinally Gobert developed a gevere cramp in the thumb of his right hand and in the deciding set it was with great difficulty that he was able to hold his racquet. ['nder this handicap he cov- ered his court beautifully, but could get no speed into his service or his returns, Also he fell heavily on the court twice, each time being shaken up severely, but Patterson was im- proving, and it is doubtful whether Gobert could have pulled out the match even had he been able to play the game he showed early in the contest, Anderson Seriously Il Crochet’s victory was won O'Hara Wood, 6—4, 3—86, 11, 6—4. The diminutive player was expected to meet James Anderson, but the latter was taken sick yesterday. This morning he had a very high temperature and an attack of tonsilitis seriousiy threat- ens to develop-into pneumonia. He was much better tonight, and unless there is a decided change for the bet- ter in the morning he will be sent to a hospital. ; Anderson was expected to win eas- ily the match against Cochet, but the Australlans did not pin any such faith on Pat O'Hara Wood. The last named put up a desperate battle against the Irenchman, winning the E nd and fourth sets and holding his own in the fifth set through six games, when, in the seventh game, Cochet broke through I service, winning after deuce on two beautiful placement shots and later winning 6—1 hecause of his winning at 30 on his final service, Cochet's game was very steady, more so than that of the Australian, who made many scoring shots that were more hrilliant than any of those made by his opponent. Cochet won the first four games in the opening set and then lost four, and in the second set was heaten on his own service in the fifth agd seventh games, in each of which he made only 1 point. O'Hara Wood won his final game in this set on the Frenchman's four errors while, serving. Cochet made a great come-back in the third set which he took at love, hut the fourth, while it was won by O'Hara Wood, 11—9, was a thriller, as Cochet again rallied after his op- ponent had a 5—3 lead.

Mary's Girls and the Traveler's Girls Hartford, will clash In thelr second tilt at baseball this evening at St. Mary's field. These ltwo teams met two werks ago and| the game resulted in a win for the locals. The Hartford management at full lfne-up was not on the field and that time offered the excuse that ms since then, he has heen telling his friends that the local team is an easy proposition and that he is going to bring an aggregation here that will easily trounce them. The locals, however, are going to spike that con- tentfon when they meet the Hartford girls on the diamond tonight, and are out to put across a win. The Dublins defeated the Sluggers by the score of 3 to 2 in 'a ten in- ning game at the field last night. This puts the Dublins in first place in the Junior City league by the narrow margin of one game. Wilson and Kol- osky formed the battery for the win- ners and Cherpack and Mottolo worked for the losers. Charlow um- pired, The St. Mary's team defeated Dodgers in a loosely played game by the score of 10 to 4. The game was called in the seventh inning on ac- count of darkness. McInerney and Krooper were the battery for the winners and Campbell and Kopec did the honors for the losers. Supervisor John O'Brien is making arrangements to hold an A. A, U. track and field meet at St. Mary's field on Labor Day. This event will be one of the finest that has ever been seen here as it will bring to this city the finest aggregation of ath- letes that has ever visited here. The final plans will be published in the| near future. The 8t. of the YANKEES WIN EXHIBITION Defcat Syracuse Club by 3-2—O'Doul Allows Six Hits Syracuse, N.

The Yanks scored a run in each of the second, third and | eighth but fell one run short of tieing the score. Lefty O'Doul went the full route on the mound for the New Yorkers and allowed only six hits.

WAGNER IS BEATEN BY I’ KAPLAN Loser Fights Far Below Form Shown in Previous Bout Before a record-breaking crowd that packed Hanover Park baseball fleld last night, “Kid" Kaplan, the Meriden favorite, won a decjsion over “Kia" Wagner of Philadelphia, after a 12-round bout that was marred by altogether too much clinching and holding. The award was a fair one, To those who saw Wagner in his bout against Kaplan a few sweeks ago, there was quite a change in the Quaker Clty hoy. Wagner was very bad in his judgment of distance last night, and many of his blows failed of the mark time and again. Kaplan on the other hand fought one of his greatest battles, He completely smothered the visitor at times. Now that each boy has an award over the other, it is probahble that the third bout will be in the works soon. A Terrible Decision. All that was needed for a Christmas party for Tracey Ferguson of Walle ingford last night would be a trees lighted up with candles, Referee Me- Auliffe took care of the present part of it. For no reason that practically everybody in the park could ses, “Fergy" was given the decisjon over Dick Berry of Fall River, The Bay Stater pounded Ferguson's face and Jjaw throughout the mill, and with the possible exception of the last round when Ferguson made a flash stand, he was outpointed by Berry. Ag an evidence of how the crowd viewed the de, on, Ferguson left the ring, after a few hand-claps, while Berry was given an ovation, Best Bout of Night. The hest bout of the night was the six-round preliminary between Jimmy Proto of New Haven, and Young Sil- verberg, of Ansonis. Starting right in at the sound of the first bell, this pair of fine performers never let up a moment during the entire six rounds. Proto did most of the lead- ing and probably landed the most blows, but Silverberg took everything with a display of grit. The referee called the bout a draw, which was fair to both. Burns-Hogan Draw. The curtain raiser was between Frankie Burns, of Forestville, and Young Hogan of Bridgeport. Both boys showed {nexpeérience. Hogan was not in as good condition as his adversary. A draw resulted after | four rounds of work. SARAZ TUR IN A 09 Paired With Armour, He Defeats Lewis and Topping, 2 Up New York, Aug. 11.—Gene Sarazen, national open champion, paired up with Tommy Armour, Westchester« Biltmore Country club secretary, against Reggie Lewis and Henry Top« ping of Greenwich at the Siwanoy Country club yesterday, and the pro=- amateur combination defeated the amateurs by 2 up. Lewis and Topa ping had a best-ball of 67, but lost be< cause of Sarazen’'s prowess, which was attested by a 69. It was an encoune ter in which mere pars failed to count for a thing, and fourteen birdies wera \made during the round, five by Sara- zen, four by Lewis, three by Topping and two by Armour. Lewis followed Garazen with a low total of 71, Ar- mour had a 72 and Topping a 76. e ———— — “THE TRUTH ABOUT HUSBANDS” Husbands Won't Want to See It !
