This win puts the nuggets one game In the lead, they having won three straight games. The next game will be played at the Fairgrounds on Thursday evening. Tuesday night's game was not real- ¥ won by the Nuggets but was pre- sented to them though errors on the | ho. Avants part. Two wild heaves over third by Catcher Bean let in several runs. The Avants with the exception of a few errors played a better game and should have won. Big Chief Mad- den pitclied the whole nine inning and was given good support in the tield with the exception of the second base position which was rather weak. This was soon remedied when Texas Callahan was chased out to right field and Jack Hanrahan was put in. Jack was a decided improvement over the portly Texas. Texas and Lefty Harris tried a double steal of home ‘and third in the seventh inning but their plans were thwarted by Slim White who putguessed them and tried to run them down between the bases. However both got back to their bases unmolest- ed while the crowd cheered, Texas all out of breath and ready to drop. Slim White was in fine form hav- Ing all kinds of stuff on the old pill fanning eight of the opposition and ssued only two ! passes. Slim also played a whale of a fielding game. In the outfield “Tillie” Walker pull- *d down a couple of drives that were abeled for extra base. Tillle was tried out at third but his playir,s was rather eratic and for the good of the team he was put in the outer gar- ien. The absence of Jack Craney from he Nuggets lineup was sadly felt and he fans missed Jack's genial com- nent on various plays and his won- terful fielding ability. Doc Kirby, the Avants' first sacker was among the absent ones so Scud. Old Corner star was recruited for th position Thd ably. filled the position. Scud is a very ver- satile player and fits in well in any position. The Avants although beaten Tues- day night are confident of the next game and have no fears but that they will even up the series and then forge thead tothe finish, FAVORITES CAME THROUGH FOURTH ROUND EASILY New York.

O. Anderson—came in on the Majestic and .prepared at once to brush up cn their play. The team meets France in Boston. If it wins, it meets Spain in Philadel- phia_and if victorious there, will play the United States at Forest Hills, L. L, for the cup. All three of the mem bers will enter the Amrican national championship in hte fall. “The title I won at Wimbledon,” said Patterson, “is a world title as far as Europe is concerned, but the United States does not accept it. I have been told that Tilden has chal- lenged me for the world title, and I am very willing to play him any where as long as the United States tennis authorities arrange it. “We defeated the French players at Wimbledon, but I believe the sog- gy condition of the Courts-had a lot to do with our victofy. I'am not cer- tain we can do it again, but we hope to meet ‘America at the finish." Further than to say that in his opinion Mlle. Lénglen showed much better tennis ability than Mrs. Molla} Mallory when the two met in' their famous championghip fight, Mr. Wood, the French girl's former partner, would not discuss her playing. He also safd he did not know whether she would come to this couptry next summer., MANY-LETTERS RECEIVED BY LANDIS PROTESTING BIG DEAL St. Louis, Mo., July P.)—Letters of protest termi sportsmanlike” the New York-Boston deal, by which the Yankees acquired Third Baseman Joe Dugan and Out fielder Elmer Smith, were sent to for- imqe Judze R national baseball commissioner by the cham- ber of commerce and the Rotary club of this city today.

OCCUM AND STERLING PLAY TO 10-INNING TIE SCORE On Spturday at the Occum field the Occum team battled to‘a ten-inn- ing, 2 to 2, tie with the fast Sterl- ing team. The game was tight and went along with the score tied for five innings when the cloudburst put a stop to ‘further play. Art Godaire, pitching for Ocoum struck out 15 men’ and allowed only three hits. He re- ceived good support with the exception of one bad error. Leo Peloquin fea- tured in the field with a pretty catch. The Occum team plays Montville on next Saturday at. the Occum dia- mond, and it is hoped that the fans will turn out strong for this game. MRS. BUNDY WINS TW MATCHES IN N.%. TENNIS Rye, N. Y., July 25—Mrs. May Sut- ton Bundy, the famous California player, won two matches in the New .| York state championship tournament on the turf of the Green Meadow' clubs at- Rye today.

J., July Lew Tend- ler, “Philadelphia challenger.: tonight decjared himself as practieally ‘ready” for his lightweight championship bgut with Benny Leonard, the title-holder, at Jersey City Thursday 'night. “Lef- ty" intends to polish up tomorrow with a few cracks at a punching bag ‘and-then sit down and dry out. Except when he sold. newspapers on a Quaker City corner, Tendler al- ways: has been taciturn and today he had-to be léd into a talking mood. He declined to predict the result of the match, but he did not conceal his re- sentment over the disparaging state- ments made hy Leonard. v “If T am so poor a boxer, why is Leonard training so hard ?” he asked. This was Tendler's last day of real vork. He did not put in a full sched- two of three ing partners having been sent ™~ fonace their ribs. e ran about two. hhies along the. banks v. o S < ...er lnis morning 3gnd boxed three lounds this afternoon with Harry “Kid” Brown. Tendler, down to about 134 pounds tonight, figured that he would be very close to 135 Thursday afternoon. The outstanding ‘feature of ‘Tend- } ler's jraining has been his grimness. He admits he is on'the verg¢ of the greatest test‘of his career. He sees no reason for talking derisively about Leonard and says his daily workouts speak for themselves. Tendler has read stories of the bet- ting odds against him and published repoerts of boxing wyiters who pick Leonard to win. Sitting on the portch of his camp this evening he crumpled a_ paper he was reading and through clinched teeth remarked: “Ill get a couple of good punches at that fel- low. Just let me get a few good smashes.” In his sparring, Tendler has not sought to avoid the punches of his ring partners. He says his theory is that a man has to practice taking punishment to keep his anatomy in a “receptive” condition. His ring here does not offer the opportunity for footwork that Leo- nard’s does. but Lew says that the disadvantage/ hasn't cramped him— rather, that it forces him td an “ag- gressive defense” by keeping his arms “puming power” all the time. LEONARD PUTS IN LIGHT DAY WITH GLOVES Budd's Lake, N. J., July 25—Light- &eight Champion Benny Leonard laid aside his clumsy practive gloves tonight and went to sleep with the conviction that his two weeks of in- tensive training have put him at the pinnacle of his form fof§his title bout with Lew Tendler, Thursday night at Jersey City. Rain, which fell nearly all day, dis- arranged his training schedule and he planned a light workout tomorrow, though it will be rmainly a day of rest.

In his brief sparring today he stopped several times to re- quest .smokers to stop puffing, and kept up a running fire of admonition to those who ‘insisted upon leaning against the ring and all but climbing into the ring. - ) Leonard and his trainers were en- thusiastic today over the.accurate hit- ting “he has shown in his sparring matches. The three battered sparring partners, .distresed despite the leather -guards that protected thej heads, garrulously attested the drive behind the champion's punches. Adverse criticisms of the showing fLeonard has made in his training bouts here centers on his footwork, once universally acknowledged as the cleverest to be seen. Leonard believes this criticism to be an egaggeration, but he has taken special exercises after each hout fo limber his leg’ mus- cles. . WOMEN NET STARS PLAY GOOD TENNIS AT RYE Rye, N.

July 25—A pro- test against the holding of the Ben- ny Leonard-Lew Tendler lightweight boxing championship contest at Boyle's Thirty Acres Thursday night made to ):;yw Hague today Rev. Harvey L. Wyatt, acting Society of . New Jersey for vention of Crime, a hewly ministerial association, Dr. Wyatt, who as a member of the Jersey City clergymen’'s commu- nity club, was active in opposing the Dempsey-Carpentier encounter last July. told the mayor that the Tend- ler-Leonard affair would be demoral- izing. He asked the mayor to see to it,"if the fight actually did take place, that the law for punishment of crime was enforced. “The mayor thanked me and said nothing more,” Dr. Wyatt said later. * Counsel for the ministerial asso- ciation said the association had little hope of preventing the match. but that it was going to seek in the next legislature, a revision of the boxing law, and wanted to show that it had left nothing undone to prevent the Leonard-Tend'er match. UNHERALDED CHAMPIONSHIP BOUT PULLED OFF New York, July 25-—News of an un- announced and unballyhooed, honest- to-goodness encounter for the world's heavyweight boxing title, in which Jack Dempsey successfully defended his crown in a four-round tilt against Jimmy Darcy, of Portland, Oregon last night in Buffalo, leaked out here today. The boxing commission of the state verified the fact. “Yes,” said Secretary Harry Burchell, “it was a champion- ship bout, although it wasn't to have been. But we see to it that the box- ing laws are upheld in this state.” I Dempsey, according to the posters on the bill-boards of Buffalo, was to have met three of his sparying part- ners, ineluding Darcy, in one-round exhibitions. Buffaloians paid a com- paratively small admission fee to see the champion “exhibit,” unaware that for a pittance. they were to see a world boxing title hang in the bal- ance. Just before the exhibitions were to start, Dempsey's managers were hand-* ed a telegram from the boxing, ad- vising that under the law Dempsey would be permitted to meet but one opponent and the bout should, alsc in accordance with the law, to be a decision. Darcy, a light-heavyweight, was selected and Pempsey performed. a little livelier perhaps than he had in- tended. The champion received the de- cision. As a result Darcy enjoys the dis- tinction of being the only pugilist to stay the “limit” with Dempsey since he won the title, and of having lasted | longer against the champion than Georges Carpentier, Fred Fulton, Jess Willard,’ Gunboat Smith, or Carl Mor- ris.
