In the event of Davis taking up the reins at Cleveland, which, it is stated, he has admitted he is to do, the pre diction is made that the Norwich boy will succeed to the captain’s berth on ihe Athletics and it will be in that position that he will round out his stellar career with the team.

Veteran Lost in Five Set Match to Columbia Coll Man. Newport, R. 1, Aug. 25.—Seven of the matches today in the fifth round of the all-comers’ tournamen for the na- tional lawn tennis championship ful- filled expéctations, the unlcoked, for result being the defeat of the veteran, Rayvmond D. Little, one of the new doubles champions, by William P. ‘Washburn, who won the Columbia in terscholastic title only a few weeks ago. Little made .the vounger player go through five hard sets, the first two being deuce affairs, but in the latter part of the contest Washburn, was speedier and steadier at critical | periods and outgeneralled ‘Little. The committee will star young Washburn with McLoughlin for the feature match tomorrow. As the tournament narrows the play becomes hotter, and five out of the eight matcnes today went more than three sets, Touchard and Niles alone finding easy opponents. The survivors for the sixth round tomorow and their pairings are C. H. Gardner of New York and G. F. Touch- ard of New York; W. M. Washburn. New York, and M. E. McLoughlin of San Frincisco: B. C. Wright, Boston, and N. W. Niles, Boston; T. C. Bundy, Los Angeles, and J. D. E. Jones, Pro idence. The feature match of the day was between B. C. Wright of Boston, a for- mer title holder, and C. K. F. Andrews, who suddenly appeared in the tourna- ment, from England. The first two seis made the contest look like a run- match for Wright, but the Bos- tonian showed a loss of speed in the third set and Andrews at once began to_outplace him. The rest in the locker room gave ‘Wright a chance to recover his wind, and he had no difficulty in runming off the fourth set and the match. Next Eastern League Meeting.

Lynch Supports the Decisions from Double Umpire System. New . York, Aug. 52.—President Lynch of the National league this at- ternoon_declined to allow the protest filed by President Horace Fogel of the Philadelpifa_club\ against yesterday" game won by Cincinnati in Philadel- phia. Lynch ruled that Umpire Eason did_perfectly. right in reversing his decision and_declaring Downey of Cincinnati safe after originally ealling him out. Fogel protested that Eason erred in conferring with Assistant Umpire Johnstone and then reversing himself and deciding that the ball Downey hil to. Paskert had been “trapped.” “We have two umpires for that very i purpose,” declared Mr. Lynch. ‘!ATTING AVERAGES CLAIM ‘ TOO MUCH ATTENTION ‘ Jennings Shows These Are No Exagt Test of Player's Worth. “Batting averages are Ly no means a true test of a ball players ability, and altegether fvo much attention is pald to inem. botn by the athletes them- selves and by the public,” says Hughie Jennings. “There are many ,cases where a2 man who hits but .275 is more valuable to his club than one who slugs the ball over tne .300 mark. Oft- en the slugger, whe is out te make a record, thinks more of his own aver- age than he does of the success of the civb is glad to score a rum or ad- figuring that he must get a hit, and not that the team needs a run. A man who is fighting for the success of the club eis glad to score a run or ad- vance a man by any means, whether it be a fielder’s fumble, a wild throw or a ciean base hit. “When he comes up in a pinch he will disregard himszif and figure only on helping the outfit that employs him to beat the other fellows. Anything that serves this purpose will suit him. G me the player who is hustling and “fighting all the time in prefer- ence to the one who goes up to the rubber bent solély’ on boosting his average, ‘A -man may hit hard and Yét be.a clog on the bases. Perhaps gets a batting average of .350 and Goesn’t steal ten sacks a year nor sac- rifice half 1 dozen men along. It is impossible to measure in cold fig- ures a man’'s worth to his club. There are so many {hings that the averages @o not show. The object of the game is to make more runs than the other fellows, no matter how vou get those runs. “For the reasons I have given, it seems to me that the offer of a prize automobile to the players who are of most value to their clubs is a much better one than that of last seasonm, when batting averages only were taken into consideration. - This new scheme will encourage team work, fighting spirit and loyalty. . There will be no chance for a loafer or a shirker to get into the competition now whether he can hit the ball or not. Anything that makes: for team work makes for the good of the game, and for that reason I am favor of the proposition ad- vanced this season. I believe that the sporting writers who are called on to vote on-the proposition are big enough men to eliminale their personal preju- dies and to support the player whom they honestly Dbelieve is entitled to the prize, whether they happen to ad- mire him personally or not.” FARMER BURNS WILL MAKE GOTCH TRAIN RIGHT The Man Who Discovered the lowa Grappler Will Have Full Charge of Camp. Several interesting phases are pre- senteded in the coming to Humboldt., Iowa, of Martin (Farmer) Burns, the discoverer of Gotch, the most sugges- tive ‘of which" is the enmity existing etween Burns and Hhckenschmidt, says Ew Geiger. The Farmer started on the trail of the big Russian shortly after Hack’s debut in America, urg- ing’ on Yusiff Mahomet, who became obsessed with the idea that he was made especially to trim the giant from thé London music halls. But now an i v new element enters into ani- of Burns; namely, the pride he in his mat relationship to nurses Gotch. The place Burns will assume in the training will be to coach Gotch in the general plan of aitack and defense— but principally in the aggressive. This has been_Gotch's chief style of grap- pling and he owes not a little of it to his sponsor and first tuter. Burns has been mapping out his plans for some Wweeks and it was he, who sug- gested the training corps now in the champion’s camp. is_significant of the friendly feeling bétween Burns.and the champion, In speaking of the coming match in Or_r:;h- the other days the Farmer said: “While Hack has been putting in the past two years at catch as catch can, he is still a Graeco-Roman wrest- ler, as is evidenced by the truth that as ‘soon as he attempts to do anything with an adversary’'s legs, he is lost He is fine above the equator, but what if you get him between the thigh and jthe toes, he wonders. On leg holds KGolch excels. There is also another | thing. , George Hackenschmidt is poor {on grip. Watch him work for twenty minutes and notice how he switches to the nelsons to relieve his hands of the strain. Gotch can hold his grip as long as he can retain ‘his wind— and that means over the classic route.” Up to this time Gotch has directed his own training.’ But the farmer will come on thc scene ready to dictate— and he is the one man in the world who can talk to Gotch and make his conversation stick. ‘The balance of the champion’s wrestling partners are anxiously ‘awaiting the . coming of Burns, not only because they like him and have a vast store of confidence in him, but also because they will be glad to pe relieved of some of the grilling work they now undergo on the mat.

In all quarters in England except those directly interested in the fina cial possibilities this match ha L with rasentment. Wells is by far the best boxer and the most promising fighter that England has produced for many years, and those on the other side who have watched his quickly growing reputation and his achieve- ‘ments have fondly believed that in him they had found a future world's cham- pion, one possessed of qualities to take back to England the long-lost honor. It is regarded as tantamount to pro- fessional suicide for him to meet Johnson at this stage of his develop- ment, and the uninterested szction of the London press has no hesitancy in slamming the compact. Wells has only been out of the British army for matter of 18 months or so, and all his fighting has been done during the last vear. ~He has comz on a lot, is a clever boxer for a big man, has a good punch in either hand and is as game s make them. But he is full of s and_ suffers from stage fright every time he 2nters the ring. This match has been the greatost shock English pride has received in many years. They are proud of Wells and all their hopes have baen centered in him; that he should hayve listened the guile of the golden guineas a fallen into the arms of the waitin Johnson, is. in -the eves of his coui- trymen, the greatest blunder he could have possibly made. But artful Arthur smiles sweetly and thinks of the $3i 000 that he is going to get for his share. Tha fight between Johnson and Wells will take place in the last weck of September. at the stadium where jthe last Olympic games were held.
