In the King’s tournament O'Dowd) defeated two English opponents and one ambitious punch specialist from far away Australia. The Prince of Wales presented the American cham- pion ld cup for his ring victories but Mi seornfully said on his ar- rival home the cup was bunk; that the gold wore off In a week. In all, O'Dowd has nine months’ service at the front. Now that every- thing’s quiet in France, Mike is go- ing to declare a little war all bisown on severa! boxers who heralded their middleweight claims during bis ab- sence with the army. O'Dowd says he'll start a brisk campaign that will quickly wipe out these contenders. For the past seven years the name of RK. Norris Williams hap been brightly engraved on American ten- nis records, As a member of Davis Cup teams, Williams competed in several international tournaments, Th the last of these famous competitions Williams was defeated by the late Anthony Wilsing and Norman Brookes in 1914 at Forest Hills, On top of this setback, Williams came back two weeks later and won tbe national singlea championship frum Maurice McLoughlin at Newport.

By Richard Freyer. |, OSH transatlantic aviaters @, nothing on Ivan Qipom, ‘who plays the ehortfield for the Dodgers, as he went up in the alf th the ninth inning of the second test between Brooklyn and Chicago. At the start ‘it looked as thougifOl | son's hop would be a success,-fu. | Umpire Harrison decided the @on- ditions did not warrant @ Sight, aod | after a short spin Ivan came down, Chicago won by the score of 3 te 1. In the first half of the ninth inning Mann, the Cubs’ leftfielder, hit a Uner to Olson, The latter made a bad throw to first, and Konetohy in trying to field the ball collided with Mann, He was thrown to the grqgnd. The outfielder exchanged a few werds with everybody in general an@ so one in particular, pleked hime LJ |and stayed on first. He immediately | attempted to ¢teal second and Kpué- ger, the Brooklyn catcher, threw to | Olson for the put-out, Olson had nis man standing up, but instead of touching him gently Ivan practically took a punch at Mann with the ball, Mr. Mann objected to | this verbally, and was about to object | pugilistically when Umpire Harrison, |who was dt second for the play, jumped between the two players and held them apart. After Chicago and Brooklyn ret: |forcements ran out to @econd bas and spoke about everything except baseball, Umpire Byron, who was giving decisions on balls and strikes, ordered the field cleared and the game proceeded. The incident did not strike one as clean baseball and things of that ort will not do the, game any good, The Cubs won by clean hitélng making a total of seven swats, fou! of which were doubles and one @ three bagi Burleigh Grimes oecu- pied the mound for the Dodgers and was opposed by Jim Vaughn, who pitched a good game, But for the fact that Rightfelder Piack for the Cubs made a great catch of Konet- j chy’s long fly in the latter half of the ninth, Vaughn's pitching would have gone for naught, One run had been sent across the plate in this inning and Zack Wheat and Myers occttpied second and third respectively, There were two out at the time with Konetchy at bat. The Dodger first baseman connected with the second ball pitched and sent the pill toward the centre field gate. Flack after a desperate run took the ball! over his shoulder and held it in his gloved hand, thereby prevent- ing Brooklyn from tieing the egore, robbing Konetchy out of a proWable }triple and ending the contest im the Cub’s favor Grimes i is always in the game.
