By PAUL PREP
Tennis lilstory has repeated Itself!
, This' afternoon Mies Molla BJurstcdt.
erstwhile Belle of Norway, but now of
New York, and Miss Eleanor Cioss, who
nlso claims the big: town n her abode
will walk out on George Wooley'a
clasplc, beautiful nnd well-kept tennis
courts at the Philadelphia Cricket Club
with the tame thought uppermost In the
minds .of each.
The single thought which will remain
In the minds of these two young women
for an hour and possibly longer is that
of winning the women's national singles
Championship for 1918. This 1b acme
task and one wetl worth occupying the
thoughts of Miss BJustedt and Miss
Gobs.
Today's meeting marks the fifth within
a short space of nix months on various
tennis courts'. Off the courts they no
doubt have met several hundred times.
But tlf.es aren't nt stake In these social
gatherings and they haven't been re
corded. ShouldvInvesligate
If Miss Molla and Miss Eleanor con
tinue to meet In the final round of many
more tournaments for pome title or other
of tho courts then It Is possible that
the United 'States Government will be
called upon to Investigate the conditions
to see if they Jiave, in an underhanded
manner, formed a partnership to monop
olize .tennis honors in this country.
If they have then Miss Molla haR been
" treating her partner cruelly. In, the,
four tourneys In which they met ,to
decide rome championship the Norse
wonder has refused to split 60-50. In
stead, she has takenyul the honors and
has put the" crown robes In her ward
Tnhe. Perhaos this afternoon It Is Miss
F.leannr'a turn to win. The title at
stake todfcy Is worth more than the
other ouartet combined and a victory
for Mlra Goss will more than even up
the summer's spoils.
Miss BJurstedt Favorite ,
If the alleged trust has decided not
, to use Its Influence on today's match,
then It Is the consensus of opinion that
Miss BJurstedt will once more humble,
her repealed challenger, and, Incident
ally, retain her hold on the singles
championship, which she won two sea
sons ago.
The spectators who braved the ad-
verse weather conditions yesterday,
"which were more' sultatble for football
than tennis, had the opportunity of
comparing the various styles of play of
Miss BJurstedt and Miss Goss on the
championship court. Miss Goss. w Ith
Miss Marlon Zlndcrsteln, of Boston,
played Miss BJurstedt and Mrs. Johan
Rogge. of Norway, in the final round
et the women's doubles. t
Goss and Partner Win Title
Of course, the main thine connected-)
with this match was tho heroic work
of each team. Miss Klndersleln and
Miss Goss triumphed, and this morning
are laboring under the handicap of car
rying around with them the Utle of
women's national doubles champions.
They deserved It. The secondary Issue'
In this contest was the respective play
ing of the singles champion and chal
lenger. Miss Gosa took an act he part In two
matches yesterday and showed an Im
proved form, especially in the earlier
matches. If Bhe shows as much im
provement In this afternoon's match she
has a chance of taking the title away
from Molla. -Otherwise not. Her serv
ice was fine, her backhand and forearm
drives were well nigh beyond criticism
and her bobbing was fairly good.
Mustn't Boot Easy Chances
But there is one thing she must not
do this afternoon. That Is fall down
on easy shota at the, most critical times.
This has been the cause of her four de
feats from Miss BJurstedt. At times her
play borders on the sensational and
difficult chances are made to look easy,
but It Is the, easy ones that she boots.
A little morecare at these, critical mo
ments will make ner a dangerous op
ponent all the time. As for Miss BJur
stedt, she Is the same as ever and that
means .almost unbeatable.
Jnnior Tourney a Succen
Julian 8. Myrlck. of New York, the
vice president of the United States
National Lawn Tennis Association, Is
to be congratulated on the fine showing
ot the girls' Junior tourney. Last win
ter Myrlck conceived the Idea that it
would be a great thing, for many rea-
sons, to foster the development of tennis
among the younger girls. , '
He brought the subject up for discus
sion at the annual meeting of the body.
with the result that the delegates
thought the same as he did and conse
quently It "was decided to hold a .na
tional championship tourney for girls.
This first tourney was awarded to the
Philadelphia CrlcRet Club.
Yesterday the final round was played.
Flay was scheduled to begin at 2:30. Mr.
Joseph Jennings, chairman of the tour
ney, received word that Mr. Myrlck-was
on his way to this city with the Inten
tions of seeing the f.nal round between
two members of the Philadelphia
Cricket Club, Miss Catherine Porter and
Miss Dorothy Walker,
Postponed Starting Time
His train wasn't due to arrive until
past the scheduled starting time. Upon
the consent of both finalists Mr, Jennings
postponed the match until Mr. Myrlck
arrived. To show their appreciation of
his efforts to develop girts' iennla the
chairman and players Invited Mr, Myrlck
to referee. He gladly accepted the In
Tltatlon. Mr. Myrlck was pleased and equally
as welt surprised at the fine work of
both girls. After Miss Porter had dem-
ouitrated her eunariorlty In two hotly
fought sets, t-37-K, Mr, Myrlck said:
"I am more than pleased with the result
of the first Junior girls' title play. Miss
Porter and Miss Walker surely are won
derful players for their age, and If they
continues to Improve J see titles n store
fpr them.' In fact, the entire tourney has
beta handled splendidly and Is a grand
Success mid equals those of other year"-"

Ing the score down he was met with a
five-hit rally for four more runs in the
fifth, during which the Athletics put In
four of their remaining six fielding mis
cues nf the game.
Boston, after this st'trt. hit Shea safelv
only once And would not have scored
again, had It not been for a fumble by
Meunch. This young man's ently Into
the Athletics' lineup today really started
the trouble. Mack allowed Larry flnrd
ner the day off. so he might go to Ver
mont, thus bringing Bight Fielder Da
vidson to tniru base and placing Meunch
In the.gardcn. At tho verv start of the
game Meunch misjudged Hooper's long
fly that went for atrhile and then failed
to get under Shean'x Texas leaguer Thla
seemed to unnervo Bill Adams and Mc
Innls and Thomas subsequently got dou
bles to send the Sox away to a 3 to 0
start.

Thopins's sacrifice boost, udded a point
for Boston In tho third, and in the
fourth, nftcr hits by Mays and on either
side of Hooper's pass, while Mays was

week Boden nominated this newcomer
the world's best rider. It w-as seconded
by Leon Prevost one of the pacemakers
nt Point Brcc7.e, and lastly the stranger
admitted the fact himself. That Is, the
Interpreter said he did.
When the wr'ter entered the motor
drome last Thursday evening he was
grabbed by the buttonhole by Boden.
and offering no reslstancewns rushed to
a vacHiit spot where the monulloes
were having a battle rojnl, with Jack
and the writer the main victims
"Gee. Pvo got a swell story for you,"
snld Jack "I've just Mgiicil tho best
uiotorcycle rider In the country o.
change that ! Make It the best In the
world. And he's going to ride Saturday
night There he Is, over In front of the
grand stnnd. Ward Bean is about to
Introduce him to the clubmen."
Under the Spotlight
Over In front of the grand stand the
said Mr. Bean was doing his best to In
troduce the stranger. "Ladles and gen
tlemen!" yelled he, "I take great pleas
ure In presenting Body Lehman, the
greatest rider In the world. He will
compete here Saturday night In the Hi
bernian sweepstakes. Loud cheers from
the clubmen. '
"Take off our hat'" piped a young
ster on the back row. The cry was taken
up by others and he Kicked a field goal
by not removing his hay piece. The cry
was repeated several times, but still no
answer by Lehman By this time Roden
was covering the distance between Leh
man and he, in rapid strides.
"See here. Lehman, whv don't you "do
what they-tell ou?" asked the greatly
excited Jack. "Take off jour hat and
bow to the clubmen and their wives."
. Lehman looked at Hoden vv Ith a ques
tioning expression on his face and his
hat still on his head "Je ne pas parler
Auglnlse," ho replttd
"What's that?" asked Boden.
JiiBt then Prevost, who was ambling
by, stopped short and explained to
Hoden. "He savs he can't speak or
undetstand Knglish. What do you want
him to do?"
"IV ke off hl3 hat and Imw to the peo
ple In the stands." replied tho greatly
perplexed manager of motordromes.
Prevent whispered gently to the
stranger. And. complying, he bowed as
gtneefully as a six-year-old boy nt a
Sunday school concert.

Desirous of obtaining some Infor

opened fire on the unsuspecting Lehman.
"Where were vou born?" was the first
question.
"Je ne pas parler Anglalse." .
"Where did you ever ride?" came next.
"Jp ne pas parler Anglalse."
"What Is your best record?" was then
asked
"Je ne pas parler Anglalse."

no title at stake this year and Phil Cor

another year.
Piatt played some very excellent golf
throughout the tournament and among
others who fell victims to his play was
the junior ihamplon. He Is. without

CHESTER vs. Harlan -Bethlehem
Steel at Wilmington. This Is the big
game on the schedule In the TJclawarc
River Ship League this afternoon, and
tho largest crowd that ever witnessed
a game In Wilmington ls expected to
tuin out, for according to Manager Gal
lagher, of Harlan, "his club must win
this game or quit tho league." The
teams are bitter rivals, and therefore
more so the rooters. Chester won In a
previous encounter with Harlan, nnd,
In fact, has not been subdued at any time
sliice the opening of the season.
The home team's line-up Is not known,
but it Is almost a certainty that Joe
Jackson and other big leaguers will ap
pear. The pitching will, no doubt, be
up to Jordan, unless "Lefty"' Williams
draws tho assignment at the last min
ute. Manager Frank Miller, of Upland,
says: "I don't care who they play. We
nre going down to win. Earl Twining
! In good shape and that Is n big help.
I will have several new men In tho In
field, Including White, of Donn, and they
can pitch any one they choose. They
all only have one arm, and tho best la
what we want."
Out at the Brill ball park Hog Island
tackles Pusey-Jones. The locals now
have a really fine team, and "Lefty"
Sterling Is scheduled to make his first
appearance, and either ho or Eddie Ger
ner will pitch. The other games .should
be close and exciting, as the contestants
arc well matched. They are Merchants
at Tray lor arid New York Ship nt Sun.
The latter game will bo preceded by a
monster wrestling and boxing carnival.
U. O. I. Makes Debut
The newly admitted member of the
Manufacturers' League, U. G. I., will
play the first game this afternoon.
It will oppose .Sellers Company on the

Is that they will win the pennant
Tho club enters the league In first po
sition, having taken the placo occu
pied by Buttcrworth. Efther Manager
Frank Brcnnan himself or Williamson
will pitch the initial battle. Murphy
will be found on the moun! for Sellers',
and he Is considered one of the best In
the league rrevlous to last Saturday,
when he lost In eleven Innings, he won
three straight by his own hard hitting
upd clever pitching,
Two first-division rivals come to
gether at Broad and Blgler, where
Stokes & Smith faces Becker, Smith &
Tage. A win for the wallpaper makers
will place them on even terms with
their opponents, and In order to gain the
decision Manager Brumfield haa decided
to start Harry Tasson. The other
games are J. T, Lewis at Monotype and
Wheeler at Link BelL The Lewis nine
Is well down near the bottom In the
standing of the teams, but has dropped
all its games hy close margins, and If
Captain Nevins's boys start to get the
