FISCHER SHOWS CLASS,
DESPITE NET DEFEAT
Johnsloh Proves He Is
Playing Great Game by
" Victory Over Brilliant
Philadelphia YoUth
By SPIOIC HAM,
W'Mtnlile Tennis Club, Forest
Hills,
L. I., AUg. .11.
THAT Wlllfnm M. Johnston, the sin
gles champion of the United .State
and London, ,is not ovettennlscd was
proved conclusively yesterday in the
first round of the national tournament,
when he defeated Carl Fischer, of the
Cynwyd Club, Philadelphia.
Heating Fischer would not necessarily
mean a great d,eal for Johnston, but it
did happen to mean a lot because the
young University of. Pennsylvania
player put up by far the best contest
that he has played this season, and he
lins been going well all summer.
Tn the final set Johnston was forced,
to the limit to win at 10-8. The little
Callfornian had to use nil of the tricks in
M racquet cover to get away with that
ret and at that he had the advantage
four times In the last game before he
could get Fischer to drop the deciding
point.
Fischer Shows Well
Fischer's stond ngalnst Johnston
marked the high point in his tennis ca
reer. He is still young, and this is the
first time that he has entered the na
tional tournament, but It Is not the
last. He is destined to pluy a very
large part in competitions for the na
tional title in tho near future.
The Philadelphia lad has virtually
everything that is needed in the way of
rpeed and strokes. His first service
has all the sting needed to make him
a w Inner, and when lie gets his second
delivery ddwn a little better lie will be
able to hold up his end in this 'depart
ment with the rest of them.
Against Johnston yesterday Fischer
shot over four service ncea in the final
eft. which whizzed through the court
far out of the champion's rench. Ho
wns not able to play bis usual net game
against Johnston for the same reason
that Tildcn couldn't do it last 3 car in
the finals.
The rcuson is that Johnston's drives
are so powerful and well placed that no
man can play consistently at the net
gainst hi in. His passing shots seem
to be even better this year than they
were last, and that's saying about all
that can be said on the subject.
Regular General ,
Carl Fischer showed that he is a
regular general on the courts by not
trying to play the net game. If he bad
attempted that he would not have made
any showing at all, but us it was he
was tho centrul figure of a big gallery
that gave him mony big hands when he
kept driving on even terms with John
ston. During thp latter part of the match
Ficher s drives had almost as much
kick to them ns his opponent's. This
applies to both lilts fore and back-hand.
He also handled Johnston's stringing
ervice in great style. He went up und
took the ball on the rise driving it
with fine direction as a rule into the
corners, innking the champion do a
lot of hustling to get Into position to
make his sizzling shots.
Fischer's game cannot be giveu too
much pinise. At first he realized that
he was playing n champion, but ns
soon ns this feeling wore off ho began
tearing right into the fray tnking the
offensive at every opportunity and the
best part of it was thut he 'never let up
in his speedy tactics after he once got
over his tendency to cautiousness.
Johnston was rather Dadly used up
In the match. This was due to a com
bination of hot day and a match in
w'hich he met a man that did not ocn
ceile him anything.
HERRON ENGIINEERS' 86
Amateur Golf Champion Has Trou
bles Rehearsing Defense
. Kosljn, L. I., Aug. 31. S. Davison
Herron, amateur golf champion of the
nited States, appeared nt the Engi
neers' course early today for practice
rounos previous to tne defense or his
itlc against the best amateurs in the
world next week.
Herron played the course yesterday
in round figures, very lound, In fact an
"fl. The giant champion is nlalnlv
worried. The slugging kind of golf
which got him home and out of trouble
nt Oakmpnt last year where he won
the title, availed little yesterday on the
ourse which calls for the nemo of
finesse in greens play.
Harold Weber, the famous interna
tionalist Ohio amateur, also played the
ourse yesterday und was in tho 00s.
Nd Aills, "the best amateur in Wis
consin," was nnothcr Hrrival who was
unable to score well. The Hrltish quar
tet, Cyril Tolley, Roger Wethcrcd, Lord
(harlcs Hope and Tom Armour, teed
"ft today in jchearsal. The Canadian
team will play tho course Friday for the
first time. Chick Evans and Francis
Ouimet are due tomorrow, us well us
itobby Jones.
Tho opinion now holds on Long Island
that 184 will qualify for the national
oi-spito tho fuct thnt oue round will be
played nt North Hhore, 11 more beau
tiful but less exacting course than the
Engineers'. The latter is said to re
quire more "trick shots nnd greens

KIRKSEY APOLOGY
Colonel Jackson May Appear as
Witness Agairtst Gendarmes
Who Assaulted American
Olympic committee has decided to offer
nn apology to Morris II. Kirksev, the
American sprinter, who wns assaulted
and arrested by Helglnn gendarmes
jesterdny, but the apology will do little
toward mending Klrltscy's wrists which
were c,jt by hnndeuuVniid his swollen
"'''Mi was Injurtfd when he was
hit with n gun.
Klrfisey, who returned yesterday
from Colombes. where he equaled tho
world's record in the 20(1. meter dash In
tiio track meet against Sweden nnd
I ranee, was attempting to enter the
dressing room hero when he wns halted
by gendarmes. The American thought
there was some misunderstanding nnd
tried to enter. He did not know that
tho rooms had been reserved for foot
ball pla)ers.
This wns n signal for n riot call nnd
several more gendarmes came rushing
to the scene.
"I playfully took ono of the guns,"
Klrksey added, "looked Into the barrel
nnd laughed. This mude the gen
darme mad, ijnd he squared off ns if to
nit inn. l stepped duck, and also
squared off. Then they nil jumped on
me nnd knocked me out by n blow on
the ribs with n carbine.
"I never hit them. Though I ndmlt
I was wrong in not stopping nt first,
surelv there was no need for the brutal
attnek, or for arresting nnd mangling
me."
Kitksey's wrist was cut by the hand
cuffs. Puddock, together with Robert
I.e Gcndrc, Georgetown University,'
who speaks French, went to the police
station and procured the release of
Klrksey. vlt is asserted that even in
the station house the gendarmes co')
tinned their attack on Klrksey.
Colonel Arnold Jackson, n former Ox
ford distance runner, witnessed the ns.
sault on Klrksey and rushed to find the
American committeemen, who nt the
moment were all facing King Albert,
who wns awarding medals.
He enlisted the nid of scvcinl news
pnpetmen, who went to the police sta
tion, but found that Klrksey had been
jelensed. Colonel Jackson said the as.
sault was unwarranted and expressed
a desire to nppear as a witness for
Klrksey.

The Man Who Said:
"They've Got Something"
YES sir he knew what he was talking about.
He'd smoked every kind of a cigarette. Then
he tried Spurs. Smoked one slow and thoughtful
like. Rolled the smoke around his tongue. Tasted it.
'Whiffed the aroma. Let them both linger longer.
Did it again.
"They've Got Something," said he. And that's
what a lot of other smokers are saying.
That "Something" is hard to describe. You've
got to know it by test, not language.
All we can tell you is that Spur contains the pick
of Turkish leaf, blended with Burley and other fine
home-grown tobaccos. Then Spur is crimped, not
pasted. It's the only cigarette, made that way, You'll
discover that the crimped seam makes Spurs draw
easier, burn longer, taste better.
