C, King of Chicago for the first Van Wickle medal in the _national roque tourney. Huot was defending the medal for ex-Champion Eddie Clark of -Springfield and King was challenger. Three games were plaved, two of which were wen by King, which made the standing 3 and 3. In the final game Huot, who had been indis- posed during the evening, ecame back and got away 1o a good start, taking his first ball around the ceurt in short order. King made a spurt and came within one arch of a home run, but fell down on an easy shot. After this it was Huot's game. The play for the national champion- ship was rgsumed Friday and Huot of Chicopee Falls_went into the lead by defeating Dr. R. Zartman of Phil- adelphia. For second place, C. C. King of Chicago and C. G. Williams are tied, with two other players in the running. There are six players who have a chance to win the title, as they are well bunched with a number of games to go. The second division title was won by A. Talbot of Springfield after de- féating R. Peale of Norwich and Dr. J. C. Walton of Philadelphia in a pleyofi®in a triple tie. Peale won sec- ond place and Walton third. The third division, title was won by James Brassill, a brother of Gerald. The leaders in the first division will start the battle for national. honors bright and egrly this morniig with a try at finishing up this week. There is a possibllity of a triple tie for first place, although Huot has an imposing lead. He must win two straight in order to be sure of the title: L. W. Robinson has oniy lost two games, but must win seven straight to tie up with Huot if the latter wins two straight. Tonight, (Saturdsy) the feature event besides the possible deciding of the tournament wiil be an exhibition game for the benefit of the Red Cross {between C. C. ¥ x of Chicago and Judge L. C. Wiliiamson of Washing- ton. The judge who. as is the custom of those on the bench, is a fluent talker, has agreed not to say a word during the game, or he will forfeit it to his opponent, and Mr. King has also agreed not to talk. Each player when not engaged in playing shall seat him- selt in a purple chair and remain there until his opponent is through playing. For Judsge Williamson net te talk is as hard as the proverbial camel! to g0 through the needle’s eyve, but the Judge says he is going to be tongue- tied during the game. The loser of the game will send a check for $25 to the American Red Crossz. The annual meeting of the National Roque aesociation was called to order |J Friday afternoon with President ™. .
