JOHNSTON TRIUMPHS
Williams at First Favored,
but Slight Coast Boy's
Form Against Patterson
Causes Experts to Hedge

By SPICK HALL.
(dtafT Correspondent Eitnlnr rablfo Ledger)
West Side Tennis Club, Forest lillM,
L. I., Aug. 30.
THE old tennis dope Is shot to smith
ereens. After the rinerta had It alt
PsfiriirH out how (Jerald Ij, l'atlersou
would reach the finals In the national
tournament, meeting Brookes, Tllden or
Williams, along came young Johnston
out of the Went and mined everything.
Thl same Johnston, one of our four
former champions "till In the running
for Cie national title, treated the big
vlfltlUf. Australian In a very unrluhbv
manners In short, he sent the British
rhnmnlon to the locker room with de
feat depicted on every feature, a benten
tlt'eholdcr, who failed to live up to the
eneetntlon. of hl many admirers on
this and the other Ride of the water.
, Patterson's defeat was not due to
any letdown on his own part. He played
the game yesterday Just as every one
prompted he would. He proved for the
third successive time that he has a
heart that cannot be shaken.
The manner in which the hefty Anzac
stave) off defeat time after time when
the gallery was certain that the end had
come was wonderful to behold, and he
perve nothing hut the highiwt prfiisc
that can be heaped upon n tennis 'player,-
Johnston the Answer
If Patterson was up to form phys-
leAlly nnd nt the top of his game, then
why was he beaten? you might ask.
' The answer is, William M. Johnston,
of California.
Johnston never played a better match
In all his brilliant career, and it might
be added that he had to in order to win.
To beat the mighty Tntterson Johnson
had to ascend to' heights of tennis and
physical endurance that he never before
had reached, wut he was equal to the
occasion.
Although visibly worn by the terrible
mental and physlcnl stralp of five close
grueling sets". Johnston was game to
the finish, and not once did he show any
sign of faltering in his attack.
While on the subject of attack It Is
well to mention that both Johnston and
Patterson, from first to the last, were
on the offensive. Neither man tried
to win points on the errors of his oppo
ponent. both probably realizing that
It was impossible.
All the points were won after each
had pursued forcing tactics. Both
strove to reach the net whenever It was
possible andj it was thfe man at the
net whojjsually won the point, although
there were a number of exceptions when
the player In the back court forced an
opening and ifrove by for a passing
rplacement. In this respect Johnston
was better than Patterson.
Driving Power There
Althonih Johnston Is a slight youth,
his driving power was fully equal to?
that of his brawnier opponent. There
probably never was a match before
when both players tint everything they
had on their drives nine times out of
ten. Occasionally one or the other
would be forced to lob, but the tossing
game did not prove a winning one to
either, for both killed wilhj deadly
effect from the net to the base line.
When Dick Williams displayed such
a splendid comeback of form against
Richards and Willis Davis, to say
nothing of Jils victory over the Austra
lian, H. V. Thomas, yesterday, it was
generally conceded that he was in un
beatable form. Now Johnston looms up
' as unbeatable.
So here we have the old Irresistible
force pitted against the Impenetrable
barrier, a logR-al absurdity, to be sure,
but n situation which describes the
""present tennis status as accurately as It
'can be depicted.
Other Barriers
This sizing up of the relative strength
of Williams and Johnston would be all
right but for one thine there arc a
few other stars yet In the running, who
hamper the mental processes of the
dopester to such an extent. that he lands
nowhere nfter beginning at the same
place.
With Tllrlen. Ttrnnken. McLouehlln
gfand Murrayistlll hanging on there is no
telling what the end will be. Lot every
one choose for himself for there Is yery
little anwhere along the line to draw a
distinction between the 'Individuals of
this tennis constellation.
Judging by the play so far, Johnston
should beat It. Lin Murray today. But
of course Johnston's match 'yesterday
way prevent his reaching such dizzy
height, while Murray's easy win over
Connie Doyle may, tune him un to just
ho proper pitch, to display today what
Johnston displayed yesterday.'
Brookes vs. Tllden
Either Brookes or Tllden will be
among the missing tonight for further
consideration of the . ultimate winner.
'The forty-two-year-old Australian will
meet the rangy young- Phlladelphlan
this afternoon and one must be effaced
from the winning list. Tllden is Jhe
favorite, but It Is never safe to predict
a defeat for Brookes.
The crafty antipodean has come
I'' forth a winner too many times alter ne
V- wts all but beaten. The fact" Is, he
did that very thing yesterday. He went
Into the match' with Charles S. Gar
land, the young PIttsburgher, believing
that he would have an easy time. He
I ; jk didn't have an easy time in tne urst two
IsJ tets, because Garland didn't give him
y a chance to run around much. Garland
I Hi lust took the first pair of seta In such
short order that Brookes and the gal-
.- lery gBBnea.
T Bnt the old roan came back. He
steadied as only he can in the face of
i. what seemed sure defeat and gradually
reeled off game after game by his skill
ful placmnts, until ne nadannexea tne
three final sets and the match. ' '

that Tllden lost his nerve, but he didn't.
After he had won the first two sets
at 0-4 and 0-1, BUI was certain that
he had the Jap on the run so he began
to toy with "Ichy." But toying with
this speedy little Jap Is just about as

toyee Is likely to turn any minute and

turned on Tilden and oil but gave him
the bitter sting of defeat.

F.
Rugged Soldier Likely to Cause
Champion More Trouble Than
Any Other Foe
MUST SHOW REAL ATTACK
BY JAMKS S. CABOLAN
Benny Leonard has some task before
him.
Only a few days ago the world's
lightweight champion, through his
manager, Billy Gibson, nnnounced that
he would stop Soldier Bartficld before
the end of six rounds.
This is some assignment.
More thnn one mtddlrweight has
failed to put away the nyrged soldier.
Miks Gibbons. Harry Grcb, -Mike
O'Dowd and other middle heights were
unable to do much damage to tho sol
dier. Leonard, n much smaller man, will
hnve to more than box this fellow. He
is facing the strongest, most powerful
fighter of his coreer. Jabs nnd taps
will not hurt Bartfieh).
During Bartfield's many showings In
this city, on only one occasion was he
really hurt. That was against Jack
Britton at Shlbe Park last summer.
Britton caught the soldier with a right
to the face that split the skin, dazed
Bartfield and virtually turned him com
pletely around.
Recovers Fast
Bartfield then proved that he had
wonderful recuperative powers, for in
leal than thirty seconds he completely
recovered nnd was tearing into the
fray with more vigor and less fear.
Leonard is far superior as a boxer
nnd a ring general. Tho same can be
said of many other big fellows who
have fought Bartfield. But when it
comes to taking punishment the soldier
rates with the best.
Bartfield also can place some punch
es himself. He has a peculiar style
nnd one that even may cause the light
weight king trouble. Leonard' once
boxed Bartfield two "impromptu"
rounds nnd then it is believed Benny
got th idea he could beat Bartfield.
Leonard's destructive attack has
beaten into submission more than one
ambitious lightweight. This same drive
crushed one of the best featherweights
that ever reigned.
Leonard showed against such boys
as Jack Britton and Ted (Kid) Lewis,
the best of the welterweights, that ho
was in their class when it came to
fighting.
Crushed Ritchie
Then came that meeting with W,illle
Ritchie. The former lightweight cham
pion is a big fellow and In normal con
dition is just as large ns Bartfield,
Leonard crushed Ritchie In eight rounds
of terrible fighting.
But Bartfield can take more punish
ment than Ritchie. This Is admitted by
men Intimate with the fighting powers
of both. If Leonard wears himself out
trying to beat down Bartfield, then It
lnhkn llln cnv work for the soldier.
Leonard must have the punch or he
never would have undertaken this job.
Jack Britton paid Leonard a great com
pliment nfter their thriller at Shlbe
Park Jast summer when he said:
Lauds Leonard
"Packey McFarland Is nothing com
pared to Leonard. Why Packey couldn't
break an egg with his punch. Leonard
bits harder than any guy I ever faced.
W,hen be pulls jwu in, then cracks you
around the body, let me tell you It
stings."
But there's no getting away from It
Leonard Is .facing the most dangerous
man of hisicareer. If both boys are
'serious, and there's tittle doubt of this,
soma blood should he spilled when they
clash on Wednesday night at the Phils'
Park.
Jack Welnsteln, a friend of Leon
ard's, returned from New York yester
day. He ald that Letraard never
trained harder for n fight than he has
for thla one. The champion spent ten
days In the mountains. He nowila fin
ishing hla work at Billy Grupp'a gym
naslum in New York, , "

Philadelphia Jack O'Brien's gym.

The little'Chestnut Hill pro. who is
singularly like Chick Evans in build
and characteristics, except for the vio

round all through the play for the open

it came to the title. He shot an 80 the
first round. But ho was willing to be
the gosjt and every round was first man
off the tee.
His partner shot somewhere up there
over a hundred, which is no kind of
competition in medal play. Talman had
to contend with the early morning

PHIL WINNING STREAK
NIPPED BY DEMAREE
Cartoonist Al Can Acconu
modate More Horseshoes
Tluin a Centipede; Braves
Get Even Break
BID FAREWELL TODAY
By EDWIN J. POLLOCK
HORSESHOE AL DEMAREE 1 It
was a wise sage who hung that
moniker on the cartoonist-pitcher. Al
has more horseshoes about his person
than it would take to outfit a centipede.
Horseshoe Al nipped a winning streak
of our Phils when it had grown to the
huge proportions of two games in a row
in the second engagement of the dual
bill yesterday. He let the Cravath club
down to a 0-4 defeat, after the Baker
laborers bad gone out and copped the
opener, 4-3, in twelve torrid rounds.
The first example of the good fortune
that is served with every Pemaree dish
was had in the third. Nig Clarke was
on first as the result of a single. Youug
Cantwell smacked a drive over first that
would have been a double ttlth any one
else in the game except Horseshoe Al
bert. Holke jumped over sideward and
made a stab that was n thriller. He
stepped on first and Clarke was doubled
up. Callahan followed with a neat single
to left, but it was wasted. That play
cut off one run.
One alien marker was the direct re
sult of a bit of kicking by Cy Williams.
The former Notre Damo hurdler stuck
his right shin nnd then his left in the
way of Mann's drive and kicked the ball
around long enough for Leslie to reach
third, from where he scored easily on
an Infield dribble. The last example of
the cartoonist's luck was in the ninth,
when a run trinkled over while Oene
Paillette fell nil over himself trying to
field the third out.
Bats Active
IT WAS a great dny, was yesterday,
for the fflnntfrvs vhn live fnr the rrssh
cramps During the long afternoon of
enterinining ntty-tour nits tusturoca me
peace of the Ford assembling factory.
Those fifty-four bingles traveled for
sixty-four sacks.
One of the drives was n home run
ofT the bnt of Cy Williams, and it came
when two of his pals were loitering
on tho runways. That clout tied the
statistics in the closing game, but it
was not enough to. win.
Leo Callahnn swung a wicked bat all
during the p. m. The little outfielder
did his best to win both ends of the
program for Gavty Cravath, but he was
not quite equal to the task. It was his
single in the twelfth that broke up the
first tilt, and in the farewell game he
had a pair of singles and one run.
