Y., Aug. 29—Thun- der storms seriously interferred with the progress of the thirty seventh an- nual national singles tennis champ- fonship tournament here today, only three complete matches being finished during the afternoon. The play of the leading favorites for final honors was' as uncertain as the weather, bril- liant racquet work being mixed with | mediocre tennis which at times sur- rised the gallery, which clung to the Stands until a fingl downpour drove both players and spectators to shel- ter. Chief_interest centered in the play- ing of R Lindley Murray of Niagara Falls, N. Y., and W. T. Tilden, Jr., of Philadelphia, and both had narrow es- cape from being eliminated as the re- sult of long drawn out contests with two veteran New Yorkers, Frederick R. Alexander and Walter Merrill Hall, respectively. Murray suceeded in de- feating Alexander just as the rain ter- minated the day's play, but the down- pour found Tilden and Hall still bat- tling for the fifth and deciding set. Alexander played the more consist- ent and better game from a standpoint of technique, but Marry always ap- peareq to have sometHing in reserve as his repeated service aceing and ter- rific smashes showed, when a point was absolutely needed to clinch a game or set. When he was playing at his best his superiority was shown by the two love sets which he won during the match which ended at -3, $-6, 6- §-0 Tilden was not so fortunate, for he could not stop Hall at critical moments despite his splendid command of stok- es and the end of play founq Hall leading at 6-3, 1-6, 7-5 deuce and Til- den. Hall was playing the better ten- nis when the storm drove them to the clubhouse. Previously to these matches S. How- ard Voshell of Brooklyn had won his way into the semi-final round in the upper half of the draw by defeating Lieutenant Craig Biddle of Philadelphia by _scores of 6-8, 9-7. Nat Niles, the former Harvard star, playing from the Lonswood Club of Boston, was not seriously extended in winning from E. H. Binzen, of Ni York, taking three sets at -5, 6-2. One of the two Japanese entrants was eliminated when Seiichiro Kashio Jost the fourth set of the mat. against Lyle E. Mahan of New York at 8-6. With the score standing at 8- 6-, 6 all in Mahan's favor on Wed- nesday, darkness put an end to the play. The doughty Japanese and the towering New Yorkers resumed at that point this afternoon, and after a number of long rallies Mahan was able to clinch the two games needed to win the match. va Kumagae and Beals Wright, ternationalist, were wag b LETH| drivy to cen-| Roush_and | scored _thres “PROTECT YOUR FEET" A.

American sport —must be credited with having built up the mo- rale and physical efficiency of our fighting forces to say nothing of the spirit inculated by it which is a great breeder of patriotism. Football—more than any other Americau sport—has pounded into our national character a fighting spirit which knows no defeat. That old sport slogan “Wait till next year” is but a sclogan of Yankee determination. Miller Huggins gets the credit for the fine showing of the Yankees this year. He is a wizard with pitchers. Yale men_throughout the country h Bernie Winslow credit for excellent showing on the di- t spring. It is up to _the eridiron warriors to repeat and make the year a banner one. Football now seems a certainty at Yale, Harvard and Princeton this fall. It is possible, however, that games may he played only every other week instead of one or more a week as has been customary, It was just sixteen vears ago last June that Danny Murphy broke into | professional baseball with the Norwich club in the Connecticut league. . B. Alexander, W. A. Campbell | and Charles Chambers of New York have been appointed a_committee to represent the U. S. N. L. T. A. in its campaign to direct the activity of the tennis public along constructive lines during the present year. As a municipal sport tennis is de- | veloping a remarkable fashion. In St. Loy tlone more than 20,000 permits | have been issued to users of the pub- | lic courts in a single season. i Ashland vs, South Manchester.

September Sth, Ashlanl mee:s Pulram ip the fourth game of their series. Ashland has now ‘won two and Putnam has won one. The management has not decided where this game will be played although it is thought that the game will not be played on the Putnam grounds because of the inability to handle the crowds on that field. The North Grosvenor- dale grounds are under conslderation, as well as the Moosup field, but as yet nothing definite has been decided. Manager Carpenter {s playing none but the fastest teams obtainable and although only a few weeks of the play- ing season remain they will undoubt- edly produce some of the fastest games of the season. The stock of a rifle or shotgun is a lot more important than most shooters realize. Many hunters, who take great pride in the bore of their rifie bar- and in keeping the slightest speck of rust from any metal parts, do not seem to care a hang what happens to the wood parts on a gun so long as do not fall off entirely. The scratched, loose, warped and dried- cut stock is an all-too-frequent gight. ‘Women trapshooters on the Pacific coast are mighty capable performers and seem to have the edge on their Tastern sisters, Take, for instance, the shooting of Mrs. C. A. O'Connor, of Spokane, Wash,, in the Inland Em- pire Handicap, which she won from a i FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL MARKET WAS SLUGGISH New York, Aug. 29.—Foreign ad- vices, as indicated by the continuous sweep of the allied forces, and domes- tic developments, including publica- tion of many excellent railroad state- ments for July, were distinctly fa- vorable today, but the stock market lapsed into apathy, with moderate ir- regularity at the end. The change in sentiment was as- cribed largely to the statement of leading banking interests threatening “corrective” measures against specu- lation on borrowed money and reports from Washington to the effect that the next.Liberty loan is likely to ag- eregate six billion dollars. Such important railway systems as Pennsylvania, Union Pacific, Atchison, Burlington, leading coalers, New Ha- ven and Atlantic Coast Line reported substantial gains in operating and net incomes( although Canadian Pacific disclosed a large decrease and St Paul also fell behind. In keeping with 1its recent course, General Motors furnished the chief diversion on its further extreme col- lapse of 10 1-2 points, a total of thir- ty points since last Saturday, rally- ing three points later. Steels, recognized war issues, to- baccos, shippings and various uncla: sified shares reacted one to two point3- Among the low priced stocks Pierce 0il, which made its initial bow on the exchange, was extremely active at a gain of one point. Coppers and al- lied issues also improved and rails made up some of their early reversal. STOCKS. Sales. Am Car Foundry Am Smeiting ... Am.
