"' But to get back to today' match. Atviimn during the last sear, Tilden (crttinly did seem to lack confidence fn himelf. not only ogalnst Johnson tut ajiinst IUchnrds, Wallace Johnson ml a number nf others. Hut ho Is a different player from the ono who sailed or Eurone with ' the American Davis I'm tpnm pnrlv In tlie summer. From the time lie left until ho reached home shores again, Tilden had a triumphal march on tho courts of Europe never lefore equaled by a tennis player. After losing to Johnston at London he beran the ascent which took him to the height of tennisdom. Mini World's Title At Wimbledon Tilden defeated J. C. Tarke and A. It. F. Klngscote, Briton's Darin Cup stars. In the early rounds. Inridcntallv. Parke had previously beaten .Inlintnn. In the final round I after a cruellng htruggle Tilden took j the little .lap, Zenr.u ijhlmidzu over the hurdles and followed this" by wln nlnjh the Hnrld's chaniplonship from Oerald I,. Patterson, of Australia, In the challenge round. ' After a short rest, Tilden defeoted I.aurenr. and (iobert, the crdck French pisjert. In Davis Cup singles contests, then paired with Johnston beat the two Frenchmen In doubles. Again Tilden becomes the cynosure of the world's tennis ejos, particularly British, when lie non his Davis Cup singles contests from I'arke mid Klngscotc and once more paired with Johnston, beat them In doubles, Tliee victories made n different player oi iiKlen, us .loiinston very likely will fiml out today. Although he djd not nae nn real opposition in the present tournament until be played Wallnee Johnpon. Tilden showed plainly in all j mntcnes timt wlien tlie time comes h eau lift his game to such heights that ncn America's ranking players look like novices compared to his court genius. Today Tildeu knows that the time fdr Mm to get down to serious terms is on the opening service shot and that's just vhat he will do. Johnston is brilliant!

Dempsey-Miske Battle All Set Continued from Voice One referee from the list of licensed offi cials in Michigan. Insisted on Dougherty Then came th'o hitch. Dempsey in sister that Dougherty be the third man in the ring and Bigger objected Ho cause the Baron wns not licensed In the state of Michignn. Meetings were held on Friday night. Saturday morn ing, afternoon and night. Both sides refused to give in. Ivearns was the spokesman for Dempsey, but couldn't get any place. v At 2 a. m. Sunday n meeting was held lu Dempscy's training quarters. 'Jack got out of bed, shoved his man ager into the background and took charge of affairs. , "Gentlenien," ho said, "this thing has gone far enough. I am the'eham pion and should have something to say in this fight. It was understood from the start that I should name the ref ereo and, if this was agreeable to Mlske. he would be the man to officiate. My choice is Jimmy Dougherty." "We never will agree to hliu," re plied Bigger. "We have selected Al A Day, of Detroit." "Then the matter is settled," sitid I Uempsey us lie arofe, from tils chair The fight Js off nnd I shall leave for New York Immediately. Mr. Day probably Is an honest referee and n good man. I have every reason to be lieve he is, but there is a ciiampion ship at stake and I must have a referee who I know will give me a square deal. Dougherty is my man. Goodbye and good luck." Dempsey left the room and irom up stairs came the sound of trunks being dragged across the floor. The com missioner and FiUslnimons departed hurriedly and visited Al Day. Dy Steps Out The situation .was explained to Day, and Al was aske'd If he would step out. "Certainly," he replied. "If I nm not acceptable to Dempsey, I would be u sucker to try to force mjself on him. I know Mr. Dougherty by reputation nnd he Is a high class man. Its a pleasure to withdraw In his favor." In this maunor Dougherty was ap pointed and the bout was saved. In cidentally, Promoter Fltzsimmons saved $7(5,000 which would have been a total loss had Dempsey carried out MhlB threat to leave town. r "I did not come out here to referee the fight," said Dougherty this morn ing. "I came here to see the battle, but If they want me to referee, I shall be glad to sorve." Now that this has been settled, we can discuss the upproachlng fray with out fcur or trembling. As is customarj we must open up with the statement that both boxers are In the best shape and each is confident of victory. The glndlntors nlwnys are confident on the eve of the battle. If some guy admitted he didn't have a chance no one would believe him. For some: reason or other the experts here are finding it difficult to pick a winner. A few have come out boldly and said Dempsey will win by n knock out) and, he should, according to the past performance chnrt. But Mlske la a changed man since his wandering vrtcbrae has been pushed back Into place. He is ns fast as a lightweight, stronger flian ever and his spurring partners say ho Is hlttlug harder. Per Imps Billy will spring a surprise this afternoon and, anyway, It looks Hue a tough battle ' Champ Is Drawn rf.nst Friday, when I saw the men In action for " the first time, Dempsey itemed to be In the better condition. Today It is the reverse. The champion is pale and drawn, high strung and nervous, while Miske is the picture of hPiilth. and is not even worried. lie. feels he has a good chance tp gain addi tional fame and fortune and will give a goocfaccount of himself. Dougherty visited Dempsey s camp this morning to talk over the box ng rules. They are the same as In I'hlla' delphla. only the boxers must .break clean and there can be no mtting with one arm free. , . After a short iIIbcuss on Dempsey said: "I will try to make it as easy as possible fqr you. Jim. If I can kuock that fellow over in the first round I shall do It. The battle can't be too short to suit me."

Hnin Interrupted the match for about twenty minutes. - The IOiiglishmen are playing brilliant, heady cricket, and when they finish off one of these two-day jobs commonly referred to as matches the scoreboard looks as though some one had been try ing to figure out an Income tax. The batting has been, of the first order nnd the woik 6f their star bowlers phenom enal. In addition to this, the fielding of the side has Increased In snap, and the judgment of Captain Metcalfe has been top-hole. If there are any other things that a cricket team ought to have, n little re senich probably would show that the Incogniti are equipped. At Merlon All Week After four days at.St. Martini the Invaders move their crkjjet scenerv to the Morion Club, nt Ilnverford. for a stay of more thau n week. After the first two-day match with the Merlon team, the Londoners will take on Cap tain Hrctt's fast New York eleven. A return match with the New Yorkers will be played on their home crease just before the Incogniti sail for homo the latter part of thfs month. Tlie invaders already have shown that they have several brilliant bntsroen in Ilurrows. Shelmerdinc and Morrison. Shelmerdine collected 1-13 runs in-Sat-urday's play before his bauds got sore or for some reason or other he decided to call it a day. Burrows missed his century by three counts on the same oc casion nnd in the preceding match with Krnnkford, Morrison ran up 81. runs before he wns retired. Roberts. Cart wright nnd 'Fowler are likely to blossom out into century plants at almost any time. Bowlers Arts Brilliant When it comes to bowling, the Eng lishmen sort of double In the parade, and these snmc batters take turns at fooling the opposition sluggers. Bur roues, Roberts, Fowler and Cartwright make a first string of hurlers thnt is hard to tie, at least In these cricket circles. II. St. Lnwrcnce Fowler proved just about ns deadly ns old Fnther' Time when it came' to mowing down wickets hi the match with the Philadelphia Cricket Club. He accounted for fi'e wickets with a total of 15 runs scored, which Isn't any more amazing than winning a couple of no-hit bnll games In a row. Burrowes and Cartwright each took three wickets In the match. Roberts did some splendid bowling in the match against Frankford. tK. XI. Crossmatv c. Broiu. h. num.. n Major J. I,. Evens, b.
