BELL-ANS Absolutely Removes Indigestion: Onepackage provesit. 25cat all druggists,, F. C. GEER, | i ULLETIN,~ SATURDAY, - SEPTEMBER 2,- 1916 | Portland, Both Winning Forest Hills, N. Y., Sept. 1.—The defeat of Maurice E. McLoughlin, the idol of American lawn tennis, at the hands of George M. Church was the outstanding feature of the fourth round of the national singles champ- fonship tournament on the courts of the West Side Club here today. The elimination of the “California Comet” in his widely heralded ambition to come back after two years of defeat, left but three western racquet ex- ponents in the fild for the 1916 titls as azainst four eastern stars and one southern expert. George M. Church is tonight the hope of the eastern con- tingent while the west is pinning its faith on the ability of William M. Johnston, victor a year ago, although it is conceded that of the remaining eight players in the tournament R. Norris Willlams 2nd, of Philadelphia, and Clarcnce J. Griffin, of San Fran- cisco, both have a chance to come through and capture the highest hon- ors of American tennis for the present season. Church defeated McLoughin, 5-7, 6-1, 6-2, 6-3. Johnston easily elim- Inated_Leonard Beekman at 6-2, 6-8, 6-3. Williams came through at_the expense of William J. Clothier, whom he defeated §-7, 7-5, 6-4, 6-1. Griffin put out E. H. Whitney of New York, 6-3, 6-2, 8-6, 12-10. Douglas S. Watter: the southern champion, won from E. R. McCormick of California, 6-2, 6-8, 6-4. Wallace F. Johnson of Philadel- phia easily disposed of W. Merrill all, §-2, 6-1, 6-2. Watson M. Washburn of New York won from Willis iZ. Davis, another Californian and holder of the clay court champlonship, at ¢-3, 4-6, §-4, 7-5.

He took the first half_comparatively easy, the time be- ing 1:02 3-4 but the last half was ne- gotinted in 68 seconds. Single G was second, over two lengths back and a break in the early part of the mile caused Hal Boy to be distanced. Thomas W. Murphy drove two horses to victory, Mirthful in the 2:07 trot, which was'a hard fought con- test between the winner and Esperan- za, and Sis Bingen in the 2:18 pace. In’ the second heat of the 2:07 a tire came off one of the wheels of Mirth- ful's sulky near the finish and Esper- ranza nosed her out. Worthy Prince was drawn after the second heat on account of lameness. Allie Watts won all three heats of the 2:i3 trot, the Murphy entry, Pittsburgh, being the principal con- tnder.

NATIONAL GOLF PAIRINGS 155 Players Have Signed Up for Tournament Beginning Moncay. New York, Sept. 1.—Secretary H. ¥. Whitney of the United States Golf Association has announced the pair- ings of 155 players who have cntered for the national amateur championship, which will open next Monday on the links of the Merfon Golf Club, Phila- delphia. Thirty-six. hole qualifying rounds will be played over the cast west couhes, the tield being equal- divided for morning and afternoon rounds on each course. The names of several former chame pions will be missed from the list of competitors this year. The absent ones include Jerome D. Travers, Wal- ter J. Travis, Findley S. Douglas, C. B. MasDonald and H. Chandler Eagzan. It is doubtful whether Robert A. Gard- ner, who won the hovor last vear, will be able to defend his title, as the former Yale golfer is suffering from an infected finger.
