By "the Asmociated Press. The New York Yankees have been sternly tested and certainly not found wanting. ‘While the biggest crowd in base- ball history looked on, the world's champions, fighting desperately for | every advantage, ripped two victor- | ies from Connie Mack’s Philadelph Athletics yesterday, and bounced back into the American league lead. Nearly 86,000 persons packed the Yankee stadium. Most of them came to jeer their one-time favorites. They | while only remained instead to go wild the Yankees tore into their pennant rivals and downed them by | acores of 5 to 0 and 7 to 3. It was a stunning reverse for the Mackmen. They came to the Yankee lair expecting to confront the pale shadow of a once-mighty baseball club. They grappled, instead, with a giant, rejoicing in his strength For the day at least, the Athletics were overmatched, Against the heads up baseball the champions played the A’s could make no prog- ress. The double defeat sent the Yankees back into the lead with a | | Pericins, '« | game and a half to spare and a rec- | ord of 15 victories over the Athletics in the 20 games the two teams have played thus far. To New Ycrk fahdom, the dou- ble bill was a good as a world's series. Two hundred thousand sought to get into the stadium, and §5. succeeded. Of these, $1,622 were paild admissions. The former record total attendance at a baseball game was set at the Yankee stadium July 4, 1927, when 72,624 saw the Rup- pert rifics mest Washington in a double header.

STa LOUIR FIGHT FOR TENNIS CROWN THIS WEEK Reae Laooste Mot to Deeod Lawes Won List Season Forest Hills, N. Y, Bept. 10 UP— America’s greatest tennis prize—the national singles champlonship—goes on the bargain counter this week, waiting for a new owner from among the 64 knights of the court who will do battle for it. The fallure of Rene Lacoste, the French ace who won the title in 1926 and 1927, to defend leaves the United States with little more chance of recovering the title than it would have had had the Frenchman de- cided to drop his business and come to America, Another Frenchman, Henri Cochet, is ready to grab the honor. At top form, Cochet can beat anybody in the world and in recent weeks he has given evidence that he Is at his competitive best. Pre-tournament discussion seems to boil itself down to who will be runner-up to the little Frenchman. In the fleld of 64 are America's best youngsters as well as the plck of tennis talent from England, Aus- tralia, and fance. Entries from Canada, Japan, Cuba and Mexico help to give the 1928 championship a heavier foreign tinge than it ever has had. With the two balls—Tilden and Johnston—out of the picture, Ameri- ca’'s hopes are settled on John Hen- nessy and George Lott. Though somewhere out of the pack may come some new Yankee tennis hero to take up the burden where Tilden and Johnston left off. Barring such an unexpected occur- rence, Lott and Hennessy are the men of the hour. 1If they can not stop the French invasion, Uncle Sam will be about ready to glve up the | title for another year. Cochet is due to make his first ap- pearance on the stadium court at 5 o'clock this afternoon when he op- poses Thomas Wilber, of New | Haven in the first round. Lott will precede him on the same court by two hours when he meets Plerre Landry, another of the seven French entries. At 4 o'clock, Jean Borotra, feared only less than Cochet, meets Manuel Alonso of Philadelphia, who was ranked No. 4 in the 1927 listings. Hennessy clashes with Dr. George King at 2 o'clock, The first stadium court at- Burritts Are Swamped As Opponents Batter Three Twirlers — Nichols Dis- plays Masterful Form In the Box — Losers Score In Last Two Innings. Landing at will on three pitchers, the Falcons yesterday took the sece ond game of the baseball series being played with the Burritt team in the eltmination for the city cham- pionship at 8t. Mary's fleld. The score in games won is now tied be- cause of the fact that the Burritts took the first contest by a three to two score & week ago yesterday. The second game was nothing to be compared with the first one. Where a week ago, the Burritts had the edge in one of the closest games played at the field this year, yester- day they were no match for the Fal- | cons who crashed out a total of 17 | hits to score 14 runs while the Bur- ritts scored five, Carelessness on the part of the Falcons allowed the Bur- ritts to score onc run in the eighth while they got four more off a make- shift lineup in the ninth, In the last two innings, every member of the Falcon team substitute list, includ- ing Coach Ray Begley and “Lefty” Atwood, alternate pitcher, got into the game. Salak essayed to start the game for the Burritts. up, greeted him with a solid triple to left ficld. Kredar followed with a stinging single to right center scoring Patrus. Soule drove a single to right. At this point, Salak was unceremoniously yanked and Bruno Kania took up the mound duties, In the first game, Bruno was a Chinese puzzle to the Ialcon bat- ters. Yestcrday they appeared to likke him almost as much as they did Balak. Klatka got the first hit off ki, a single to left. . Then Noonan and McKernan were retired at first, McCleary, however, singled to right and Reilley followed with a bingle to left.

Not at all outplayed or outgamed, the Stanley Works baseball team, champion of the Industrial League, went down to defeat at the hands of the Falcons at St. Mary's field Saturduy by the close score of 2 to 0. The fact that gave the Falcons | their victory was their ability to hit, | not frequently, but just at the time when hits meant runs.
