The overseas visit- ors hit the rocks in the fifth round yesterday, when Zenso Shimizu lost to Tilden in straight sets. Manuel Alonzo lost by the same margin to Johnston and James Anderson dropped the decision in three sets to Richards. Patterson alone came through with an easy straight set vietory over R. Norris Williams, for mer champion. For the first time this season Til- Gen cut loose in his match with Shimizu, the Jap, who twice came within a point of beating him in the 1921 Davis Cup challenge round at Forest Hills, Yesterday the tall Phil- adelphian had everything, speed, con- trol and confidence. Big Bill was certainly on top of his game, as he walloped every kind of a shot, forcing the ttle brown man far in back of the base line and often forcing him to miss the flying bal! entirely. Shimizu frequently scored brilliant recoveries, but they netted little, as Tilden would be in position for a brillant finishing shot. The Jap's favorite game is from deep court, but ‘Tilden must have made him think he knew very little about long range driving. The champion’s ability to find the lines was amazing, especially when the majority of returns were hit with great power. Tilden needed only forty-two min- utes to win by the scores of 5—0, 6—%, 6—1. Tilden seemed to muster strength as he went along, and in the third set allowed Shimizu only eight points. It was the most decisive de- feat Shimizu received in this coun- try. Johnston began strong and his match with Manuel Alonso, the pep- pery Spaniard, promised to be a run away affair, particularly wien the former champion won the opening set in love. Johnston invariably pulled his speedy opponent far to the left side of the court, which left big holes on the other side for his powerful forearm drives to earn many place- ments. From midcourt Johnston was invincible, as he volleyed the ball neatly to the side only to bang over a finishing drive at the proper time. In a desperate attempt to drive John- ston back Alonso would come rushing to the net, only to see the ball sailin; over his head out of reach as the Californian suddenly changed his tac tics to lift up a well placed lob. The second set was much like th: first, Johnston dominating the match, although Alonso kept the gallery in a constant ripple of applause as h raced around the turf to make almost impossible recoveries. Without slowing down Johnston took five straight games in the third set, and was twice within mate point in the next game when Alonso staged a dramatic rally and not only won the sixth game but the next four yield a single point to Alonso, who faded completely away before Little Bill's new attack. Vincent Richards handled Ander- son's deep court game nicely and flashed many brilliant finishing shots as he won in straight sets. The boy wonder from Yonkers came from be- hind to win in both the second and third se: Richards's only weakness was the inability to control his ser- vice, especially after the first ball. Gerald Patterson, the husky Aus- trallan, who holds the champtonsh!p of England, only had to play ordinary tennis to stop Williams in ‘straight sets. The former American champion was in one of his erratic moods and beat himself with errors. Patterson grew rather careless himself in the last set when he double faulted five times tn the fourth game. but in the pinches he outsteadied his wild opponent. eee MISS HELEN WILL: REACHES SEMI-FINAL PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 15, — Miss Helen Wills, the wonder girl from the Pacific Coast, fairly smothered Miss Edith Sigourney of Boston in the third round of the Middle States champten- ship lawn tennis singles on the courts of the Philadelphia Country Club here ye: terday. The speed, aggressiveness and amaz- ing accuracy of Miss Wills kept Miss Sigourney on the defenstve most of the time, so that the latter won only one game. The score was 6—0, 6—1, By her victory Miss Wills came through to the semi-final round. Miss Leslie Bancroft and Mrs. Marion Zin- derstein Jessup also advanced to the semi-finals, encima aiimmermian CYCLING STARS IN LONG RACE AT VELODROME Alf Goullet and Orlando Pian! may size up as the best combination, but they will considerable contention in to-night’s initial 100-kilometre team race from other strong teams entered.

I couldn't ask any more than that and I am not doing so. Frankly, I feared this Sox series much more than that with the Browns, Did you see the way the gang hit yester- day behind Joe Bush? Did you see the perfect way Bush pitched, know- ing that he had a tough guy to beat in Leverett? If you did you'll see why I think {t a cinch that we win the old pennant. Who's going to beat us? “Chicago,” went on Huggins, “has a corking good ball club now, and don't forget that they are going to play the Browns a series of three games after we get through with them, These White Sox also have a chance of getting third money, This called the little World's Series. This morning {t is reported that every seat has been sold for the Saturday and Sunday games, Charles Com- skey, owner of the White Sox, says that the Browns will make just as much money out of this series, if not more than they would in a World's eries. The attendance will be lim- ited by capacity only, except in a World’s Series that capacity can be stretched, Manager Quinn of the Browns has notified the New York club that he is having built a big temporary ex- tension to the bleachers and will be able to accommodate at least 6,000 more customers, These seats are be ing put in for this series only.
