Pat Muruu was
known to I'htlndelphlaus only as
some sort of assistant coach a catcher
who had gone back. On Saturday 24,
000 citizens acclaimed him the great
est manager in baseball. It was n
tribute more to the man than' lo the
piospective National r.easue pennant
i winners. It was n remarkable display
of the power of personal magnetism,
I Pat Mornn is the most interesting clitir-
acter in baseball to Philadclphlaiis. and

It is tather remarkable tha,t Fred

drawn right off the reel with Oerald
It, Patterson, the young Australian,
who with Norman K. Hrookcs won the
American doubles title from Hill Tildcn
and Vincent Richards. The Alexander
Patterson match was .expected to draw

o'clock. AVJicli Heals C. origin ana
Alexander were in Australia nine yenrs
ago to play the Davis Cup matches,
they practiced on a court belonging to I
Patterson's father. At that time tlie j
nresent British champion was a boy.
of. fourteen. He was very much inter
ested in Alexander's ttylc of play and
waR fond of hating the famous Amer
ican "put him next" to some of his
"inside stuff." Patterson also acted
as balUboy In Alexander's matches at
Christ Church. New Zealand, where
the matches swere played that year.
And today the little ball boy of yester
day meets his former idol.

Norris Willlatas, 2d, are scheduled

With the hats ot these four players
In the tennis ring, Philadelphia has an
excellent opportunity of once more be
ing the home of a national champion.
Bill Tilden's play this jear has been
so consistently brillinut that it would
not be in Hie least surprising to see
the (lerinantown Cricket Club's crack
"bring the trophy back. But the field
is such a representative one that pre
dicting is utterly foolish. There are
so many stars here that the winner is
going to be the one who happens this
xveek to be at the lop of game. Per
haps Tilden will' be at his best nnd
.rierhaps he won't. Many of the play-
prg, who begin today havo played in so
many tournaments rrccnuy mat. u is
certain that a number of them nre stale.
However, most ot these have a chance
to, come back to form because the ma
jority of the better platers have easy
matches for the first two or three daVs.
This will give them a much-needed
rest and it' is not unlikely that the
whole array of talent will be close to
the. top of their games when the test
matches are pulled oft later In the
wee.
Although the advance sale of sea
Kon tickets has closed, there are plenty
f good seats available. There will be
flOOO of these slugle-day seats sold
each day at the grounds. It is a case
ot first come, first Served; but Harry
Parker, treasurer of the champion
ship committee, says that every effort
