The juniors played off their finals

next match pn tho big program was
the women's singles for the American
rlmmplonshlp at 2 o'clock. This event

njSalnst Miss Helen Daker and Eleanor

Mixed Doubles Lost
Tho final match on tho card late this
afternoon will be the mixed doubles
evfiit for the national championship.
Two Phlladelphlans figure largely In
this. Mrs. Mallory, New York, and
Craig Blddle meeting Mrs. Oeorge W.
Wlghtman, of Boston, nnd Wallace F.
Johnson, of the Cynwyd Club.
rKio semifinal matches In the singles
yeterday did not develop anything
gbovc mediocre tennis. Miss Zinder
iteln defeated her doubles partner, Miss
(inss, with case in straight sets, and
Mrs. Mallory had a still easier time
eliminating Miss' Helcne Pollak, of New
York. Although these matches were
played otl the championship court and
were witnessed, by a huge gallcrv, they
wero far from being real features, as
far as tennis is concerned.
The best match of the day-was the
firj.t semifinals in doubles. In which Miss
Zindcrstcin and Miss Gob? defeated
Mrs. 'Wlghtnlan nnd Mrs. Mallory in
three of tfle finest sets ever played by
women In this country.
fternlar Tennis
While Mrs. Mallory nnd Mrs. Wight
man played beautiful tennis, the out
standing feature wns the spectacular
work of Miss Zinderstcln. The Boston
rjrl had a number of footfaults cal'cd
on her in the second set. This caused
her game to slip badly. She double
latmeu repeatedly ana mnac mauy
costly errors, so many in fact that her
tide lost the set 0-2.
Mrs. Mallory nnd Mrs. Wlghtman
continued to hammer out points, the
former by forehand drives and the lat
ter by superb net play. They ran up a
lead of 4-1 In the deciding set and it
looked to be all over but adding up the
score. But tho end wasn't yet. Miss
Zimlerstein resembles many college
foitball players who play better when
they are angry. At any rate she was
finery and she began playing like a fiend.
Her choppy drives were sent over with
a vengeance, and she volleyed In a way
that left no doubt "about the result of
the point.
Miss Goss tried hard, but she was
csirled along by her pnrtner, otherwise
tht would have been lost. The New
Yorit girl had many chances to win
points by smashing lobs, but almost in
nrlably she overdrove tho base line.

JUNIOR NET TITLE
Miss Louise Dixon Defeats Miss
Sewellfor National
Tennis Crown
Miss Louise Dixon, of tho Philadel
phia Crlrket Club, won tho girls' junior
Jan it tennis championship of the
nlteil States today nt St. Marlins by
defeating Miss Helen Sewcll, of the
Huntingdon Valley Country Club, in
three sets. .1-0, 6-3. 0-2.
Miss Dixon lost tho first set because
the apparently had a slight nttack of
"ago fright, but In the second and
third Rets, which she took In nn Im
Prr.sslvo manner, her confidence re
turned nnd she played beautiful tennis.
Miss Dtynn'M RnrvlpA wns rftnmrknllli
for a junior player and she scored ninny
ai on her delivery. Miss Scwell is
a steady player, but she was tillable to
lalsp Knmc to the heights necessary to
ompete with Miss Dixon's fine nt-
wk. At the net Miss Dixon was
usually good for a girl. On tho other
hand Miss Sewell was not able to do
puoh in the few times that she went
to the barrier.
A big crowd was present when the
Hinteh wns staged, on tho court In front
of the clubhouse, Mr., Joseph Cnr-

tournament, was in the uniplro's chair.

oJ the Philadelphia Cricket Ciuli,
won tho girls' Junior lawn tennis ,
championship of the United States
In doubles yesterday nt St. Martins
with Miss Helen Sewcll, of Hunt
ingdon Valley, as her paitner
She hit the balls hard enough to win.
uui ncr control was poor.
The mixed doubles semifinals brought
some great tennis. Mrs. Wlghtman and
A allaco Johnson had a hard battle be
fore they were able to beat Miss Ten
nant nnd Sam HarUy. The Davis Cup
captain has been plnylng tennis many
years, and he Is a hard man to beat any
time. He Is craft nnd knows nbou't
all there Is to know on tho tennis court,
consequently with u pnrtner of Miss
Tennant's caliber he was unusually hard
to defeat.
In the second set Mrs. Wlghtman nnd
Johnson led af 13-2. one game from tho
match, but Miss Tennant and Hardy
cntne up, evened tho count nnd carried
their opponents to 8-0 beforo finally
losing.
In the other match Mrs. M. Brooke
Huff and Carl Fischer had a great
chance to bent Mrs. Mallory and Craig
Blddle, but ultimately lost In three sets.
The former pair won the first set rather
easily, then got a 4-3 lead In the second
ect nnd a 40-15 lend in the eighth game.
One point virtually would have giveu
them the match, but Mrs. Mallory and
Blddle got busy, took that game and
then ran the set out. In the final set
Mrs. Huff nnd Carl put up a stiff fight,
but they wero outplayed and dropped
the match.

TEXAS GOLFER WINS
SENIORS' TOURNEY
Hugh Halsell Has Best Card
Ever Scored in This
Competition
Bye, N. Y.. Sept. IS. The sixteenth
anntinl cjiamplnushin of the Seiiiors'(!olf
Association of tho United States, held
over the Apawamis links, was won by
Hugh Halsell, sometime of Dallas, Tex.,
and now of Sleepy Hollow, Scnrbor-ough-on-the-Hudson.
Plnylng for the first time in this
tourney Halsell, who is fifty-seven
years old, completed the courso in a
total which never before had been made
In the tournament, namely an 80. Thnt
card put him well In tho running for tho
title, and that It was no more flash in
the pnu or fluke Halsell proved when
on his second round he brought in
another card of 82.
Because of the rule which allows no
more thnn one prize to a player the
tournament committee is in something
of a quandary. It will take them
several days to sift out the mass of dntu
nnd assign the silver cups and cande
labra. About one thing, however, they
,nrc qulto positive. Halsell won tho
championship nt his fir-t time out, and
that with the lowest thlrty-slx-holu
gross score ever returned In the course
of ! Seniors' golf tournnment nt Apa

Jones won both matches bv n 2 nnd 1
margin. A good gallery followed' the
afternoon match. Piatt wus badly off
but both pulled badly which kept the
match so even. '
Reynolds had little trouble with
Spencer Wright, Aronlmlnk, nnd J. I

Wheeler put out Norman Maxwell
on the nineteenth in the morning and

M. P. Jones defeated Paul Jennings,

to the finals. They are no rcl&tlon.
If any further Inspiration for playing
n great gome of golf In tho tourney
were needed thnn the beautiful White
marsh course, it was supplied by the
class of tho field and the gorgeous
prizes.
The competition for the linen Oelst
Cup hns ever been keen ns witnessed by
the fact that Norman Maxwell is tho
only player who has his numo on it
twice.
And Maxwell was only one of three
favorites, all of whom were ousted In
the first round. Styles nnd Clnrcy also
"biting tho dust."
J. W. Piatt, city champion, hnd his
trials the first day. Tho young star,
who beat S. D. llerron. nnttoual cham
pion, at tho American amateur cham
pionship last week and went to the
third round, seemed badly over-golfed.
He has played In every tourney of
the district this year, except Lit Lu.
when he wns away at the national, and
few parts of his game yesterday looked
like the Piatt who thrilled them by the
thousands at Roslyn.
His most lamentable falling wns
around the greens. Against Jnmes II.
Ony. Jr., Cricket Club, he was In
variably short and admits ho was for
tunate to w.ln.
Time after time ho wns short on his
putts nnd the same held true In the
afternoon against Spencer Jones,
medalist, on the first nine. Piatt took
three putts on three of the first four
holes nnd said his clubs felt like perfect
strangers.
Ills iron to the sixth went kiting
through the rails of the fence bnck of
the green, far out of bounds, and it
wasn't till the seventh nnd eighth thnt
he sank putts, both of them hard ones,
he left himself nfter "missed" dip
shots.
This left him all-square, but ho wns
over the short ninth In n trnp, nnd put
his ball out of bounds coming on, be
cause of the new. loose snntl.
The defeat of Edward Satterthwalte,
Bala, by tho comparative newcomer,
Charles Doelp, Tredyffrln, wns, n sur
prise to some, but Doelp has been play
ing a sterling game, and the data wns
given a further Jolt when the veteran
Satterthwalte was out In one under
sixes.
Doelp Is a high-strung player, who has
not yet developed the even equanimity
which comes with tho ups-and-downs
of many tournaments. Doelp Is n
"fighter," is after every hole, and
showed what he could do qualifying
day.
Told that 77 was low for the medal
he had a putt at tho eighteenth from
the edge of tho green for it. lie hit it
firmly, but by the very "will-power"
ho put on it. "body English" they call
It in golf, Doelp made his putt drop.
On one foot, evcrjr nerve taut, he
watched It roll up nnd then "drop!"
Ho hollered excitedly.
She did.
"A 77!" cried the excited golfer,
but somo people always tolte the joy out
of life, for they told him right nway
that Spencer Jones hnd scored a 71.

OFJJKELY KIDS
McCann and Volley Impress St.
Louisans as Future Stars
of the Diamond
St. Louis, .Mo., Sept. 18. Two mem
bers of Connie Mack's 1020 rookie flock
promised to be polished and shlned
into major leaguers eventually prob
ably in a year or so. Although the
tallcnders were the second party to
yesterday's gnmo with the Browns, a
17-8 score, two juveniles introduced to
Missourlans impressed to the extent of
getting that well-known "favorable
impression" report from the rlngsldcrs.
For ytnrs Mack has been hauling in
a flock of kids of nil sizes tall ones,
short ones, fnt ones and frail ones.
He has put together a fair pitching
staff in Rommel, Harris, Nnylor ond
Perry nnd hns been looking for repro
ductions of Mclnnls, Collins, Barry,
Baker and others. The two who re
ceived their, diploma here yestcrdny are
Eugene McCann, for shortstop, and
Kclley, for first base.
A year ago major league scouts tour
ing tho minors touted n product of the
Virginia League the star of the minor
leaguers. lie wa McCann young,
they said, but the measurements to
make the grade, and out this way we
waited for youngster McConn. He ar
rived yesterday and he showed things
that made him greatly resemble Everett
Scott, of the Boston Red Sox. As Scott
is considered the top mark in the
Khortstopplng profession, the Quaker
fans can bo led to believe that Connie
actually has drawn a prize.

boxers. Borrell weighed 159 and Row
lands two pourlds less.
Although Johnny Sheridan, 124, was
outweighed by ten pounds he succeeded
in Holding Joe Sharkey to a draw ln
the best bout of the night. Johnny

Two Wickots In Second
Innings
The All-Philadelphia cricket team
today faced the simple little recreation
of coming back against the well-Btnrtetl
Incognltl In tho final of the three-day;
International mntch now under war oil
the crease of, the Gcrmantown Cricket
Club nt Mnnhelm.
During yesterday's play tho local
eleven couldn't get going enough to
register 100 runs, while the Britisher
In their nftcrnoon Innings cnlleofed 211
runs before Btumps were drawn at halt
nast five. ,
The poor work of the locals contlne
used todny, when only five runs wevo
made for two wickets.
Captain J. Ii. Evans, who made n
splendid stand of twenty -seven r,uns
yestcrdny, was bowled b.v Burrows: for
only five markers. II. S. Harned wai
caught by Morrison for only three runs.
Ii. G. Graham had a good not out
run of twenty-eight.
The showing of the local bats was
a first-class disappointment nfter their
good work of n week ago, but tbcVe
are some things thnt perhaps ought to
be taken Into consideration.
Right off the bat. the wicket was In
terrible condition. It wns bumpy nnd
rough and not at nil a fair test.
The make -up of the All -Phlladelphlans
wns considerably changed by
substitution on account of Injuries', .to
stars and for other reasons. The side
that went to the wicket yesterday jwnx
not the smooth working combination
that collected 308 runs In their first
Innings a week ago.
