MRS. MALLORY MAKES
BRILLIANT RECORD;
EARNS WORLD TITLE
f Worse woman ucteals Best
in a Week, Losing Only One Set Miss Browne
Gives Champion a Hard Fight
By UOnEUT V. MAXWKUi
Sporta IMItor llvenlnit Public Idicrr
TENNIS history was made- nt Forest HUN. 1. I., last week when Mrs.
Molln Mnllory MicccFuitilly defended her title against the host and classiest
buncli of players ever gathered In one national woman's tournament. Grizzled
veterans who have followed the game for a M-oro of cars say It was the he-t
thev ever had pen, and doubt if there ever will be another like It.
' Molla won. and to the victor po the plaudits of the multitude. Its always
thftt way, because boos-tlng a winner is the easiest kind of work. This time,
!.... ... M.ninnlnn ileserves everv bit of nrnlse handed her and more.
Never linn a plnylug-through champion met and defeated Mich a Held, and
never has any Rl'rl more clearly demonstrated her prowcs and the right to
bt called champion. ... , , ,. ,
Mrs. Mnllory returned from KiU'ope early this month, ami after MeppitiR
off the steamer plawd in the Metropolitan championships, winning from Ml-s
Goss In the llnal round after vuntiuMiltiir May Sutton Untidy In the semi
final The followinc week she won the chalietiBe bowl nt SeabilRot after
beating Miss Browne- and Marlon Zinderu.uoU'siip. '-Then came the nutloiuil
chtitnplon-hlps last week.
Her first match was with Mrs. .IcsMip. and "-he won. Molla wns to
have rested on Tu.-dav and plajed the winner of the I.enElen-tJoss match on
"Wednesday but Miss Ooss defaulted and the Norse woman met the trench
champion "on a moment's notice. What happened has 1 n told and retold
hundreds of times. Mrs. Mnllory outplayed, outgeneraled and outgnmed the
French girl, winning the fust set li-U. and after getting a lead of 'J-0 in the
second set Mile, l.englen retired. Molla was in great form that day and
could have beaten tiny woman tennis player In the world.
When I.eng'.cn was eliminated the champion p'njed Mrs. Pole. Sirs. .May
Sutton Uundy and Mary Brown,.. Thus she met and defeated the best
players in the world in a week, did not lose a n and made a record which
might never be equaled except by herself.
Her hardest mutch was with Miss P.rowne. The little ( alifomiau is one
of the smartest phijers In the country, a great court tactician and possesses
a greater variety of shots. She won the tiit . t rather casllj , but dropped
the nest two after a gallant uphill battle.
M"S5? iJftOll'.YK played on Molla i irrakm ssher hiickhandn
long as possible, and this gave her rictnry in thc first set. After
that, hmrerer. Mrs. Mallory's dazzling return doicn the sidrlim s or
across euurt icerc too much, and the game little chnlhngcr had to go
doien in defeat.
Championship Match an Interesting Event
A CHAMPIONSHIP tennis match is a picturesque, interesting event, and
more exciting than any one imagine. At Forest Hills Saturday a crowd
of almost IHlon behaved beautifully while the championship was being derided.
It knew when to applaud and when not to. which is a rare accomplishment.
In tennis, mistakes never are noticed publicly. If a ball goes outside
The stands nv silent. If a placement is made or a solid Miiash stays inside
the applause Is loud and long. In that memier one tan tell when a point
Is made. ,
It was n wonderful sight last Saturday, mid here arc a few impressions
I jotted down before and during the championship tussle:
The stands are filling rapidly, but there is nothing in the arena that
Baggests tennis except a court in the middle with a net stretched ncross.
Officials and tennis fans are gathered on the clubhouse porch talking it over.
Attendnnt wearing n white hat carries out a chair and is followed by
more attendants carrying more chairs.
Club member wearing monogrummed coat carries, out two towels.
Attendants wearing blue monogiammed shirts tarry out high stool for
the umpire. This means sometlung is going 10 nnppen.
Club member, wearing freshly painted white slio
tan coat, carries out pitcher of Ice
wearing blue monogrammed shirts.
Attendants drink ice water intended for players nnd get nway with It.
Club member with monogrammed coat phks up long piece of wood painted
green. He examines it clo"!y and attendants m blue monogrammed shirts
arc interested observers. ,.,,,-,,,,
Club member uses stick to measure height of net. Shakes his head, tipping
off audience that something is wrong. Halses net one inch, throws out chest
and walks off field.
Gentleman In press coop looks at sky and say: "It gonna rain, rhem
dames oughtta come out now or the match will be all wet."
Applause is heard as Molla and .Mary appear. Applause subsides as
girls pose for photographs and pathos weekly.
Mary Iirownc wears green lint and carries one racquet under her arm.
Molla wears no hat and carries two racquets.
Paul Gibbons and other judges take scats near wall, not o much to
judge, but to get a better yiew of the match.
PHOTOGRAPHERS, officials, attendant, elub memhert, etr., stand
on aidt lines and girls irarm up. There arc no seconds or adcicrs.
It is every icoiiian for herself.

ANDY" M'GUCKIN, 12, MAKES
GOLF HOLE
Tiny Bag-Toter Founds Junior Membership Branch of '7oc-

some With Two Clubs
By SANDY
T OCAL Po-t No. I of the Ancient
J-J nnd irouorable Order of the "Hole- '
in-One" Oolf Club will have to change
its name. Willy-nilly, it now has a
junior member
Andy McCuckin is the latest member
to join up. lie's but twelve yenrs old.
He holed out the other day from the
tee nt the ninth hole nt the White
morsh Valley Country Club, n links
which staged the three major cham
pionships of the Philadelphia golf 1'H"
trict tliis enon.
Little Andy is a enddy out there.
Thev wen- playitip the rcRiiInr "caddy
day" competition there, when Andy
und his pnrtner came to the ninth tee.
It's a stout belt to that preen for n
little feller who can hardly look over
the top of hi driver.
And.v wasn't taking any chances on
the traps in front or nnjthlnj: ele. lie
was there to pet on the green, dead to
the pin. rv he brushed his locks out
of the !, took his healthiest tiwint;
nnd then1 was a good sound smack.
"C,ee, it's on," muttered one of the
others.
"Itollin' to the pin, too," added
Andy.
The ball trckled right up to the cup
and disappeared.
"fieel' whispered Andy, in awe be
fore his own prowess.
And, "gee I" was nil the other kids
could echo.
Two Clubs Enough
You rend now and then of the vv. k.
friendly foursome, the qunrtet of coin
nanlons who take to the links day after
'ay, ever the same match, ever the htime
stakes, all battling around in the nlne
t'es and hundreds,, and renernlly break
ing up nt he eighteenth green without
peaking until the next da . Then the
same net Is put on again.
There arc foursome cliques ut every
'ocal club like that above. Hut out at
the Cricket Club there's one unique.
(leneral (Manager! C II Coleman,
Colonel V. It. Ab.'rcrombic, Mnior !.
M. Wood and Private L'lwood Melchcr

some time. They nil used to play about
tl.i same game. It was fifty-fifty.
Hut suddenly Oo'fer Colemau began
to step out. He began playing real
wlf. He was outclassing the others.
It censed to be fun. He was In danger
of expulsion from the foursome. Then
he had 11 hnppy idea.
"I'll use only two clubs," he offered.
He choe his driver and jirger. Hut still
there was no joy written on the faces of
his opponents when they came in from
the daily game. The reason was do.
n nnded the other day.
"Whv," snor'ed one of the op
ponents, "dinged if he don't play bet

you'll never know the relief I felt when
I smnnhed my mhllron only four yards

"My brain was in n whirl as T

it didn't look any too good. My heart

Matthew A. Duff.v. "mayor" of the
Falls of Schuylkill, finished in the money
at the Philnde'phia open tournament,
and was immediately surrounded by
challenges from all of his subjects- nt
the Palls. The first acceptance w.im
nt Llanerch Friday when Duffy played
Hob Hansford.
The former wns paired with F. Mc
Cracken, of "creaming iron" fame, hut
Hansford's partner plnyed so niisernhly
he Isn't oven going to get his name in
the paper. Hansford won his point that
the "Major" was a flash In the pau by
trouncing Duffy two up.
"My reputation is alrendv estab
lished," was the comment Duffy made.
"I am interested in the young players
nnd wbn too dnzzled by McCracken's
shots."
"Great !" applauded Duffy as hli
partner Miincked one against a tree on
the fourth und the ball caromed wildly,
far down the fairway. "I guess jou've

ANXIOUS TO COP TITLE
Hy LOUIS II. .IAFFE
"Ho Hcnny Jeonnrd in Raying thnt
ho never will give me a shot at his title,
eh? Wclli I wondor what the promoters
nuil the general public are going to do
about It?" Lew Tendler, Philadelphia
southpaw, one of the best lightweights
ever turned out in this city and con
ceded to be the foremost contender for
the lightweight championship, was
talking.
"It Isn't original for n boxer to
ndmit thnt it Is his ambition to win a
lllli. Vnr two rnnrn I hnvo felt my-
sclf fully confident of being primed to
annex Leonora a crown, dui J,eny,""
shown his npporent fear for mo right
along.
"Just when it looked as if I were
about to get the chance to knock the
lnurcld off Leonard's head a wrench
was thrown Into the works by the in
jury to hU thumb. He got peeved be
cause I clnimed his forfeit, nnd now he
linn threatened to keep mo from
championship bout.
Public Opinion
"I think I wns fair In taking the
$5000 forfeit with the understanding
that name would be returned to Leon
ard providing ho agreed to a match on
or before October 12. And I believe
thnt the public agrees with me. 1 won t
say that the champion Is afraid of the
result of a match with me I 11 leavo
thnt for the fans themselves.
"There is no reason why n boxer who
can mnko the weight nnd Is clearly enti
tled to a match with n tltleholdcr should
bo lioycottcd by the champion himself,
and certainly hope that mmothlng in
done i
this fall to show where I staiid.
Tendler further sotr that bo never
was in better ahnpe since Ms entrance
In the ring profession eight years ago.
"I wns right on edge when the Leonard
bout wns called off for August 12, and
while I broke training scvernl days I
got right back Into the grind, nnd am
in first-clnsH condition. What I would
have done in the Leonard bout I will
attempt to demonstrate when I go on
with Hnllor Friedman."
Rood Boxer
"And," continued Lew, "this Frlod
man person Is no cinch. He's a cork
ing good boxer, and, no mntter which
wny the verdict goes, he'll prove it. It
was ngainst the sailor that I hurt both
my hands lust year."
Tendler cannot afford to take any
chances .with Friedman. Providing the
Chlcngoan upets the dope and wins by
a margin then Leonard. If it is true
thnt he will refuse to box Tendler. will
have some sort of an excuse to prefer n
match with the sailor than the Phila
delphia!). However, in the event that Tendler
rIiovvs his superiority over the snilor
then Lew will continue to loom ns the
lending challenger of Leonard.
The Tendler- Friedman contest for
Wednecdny night at the Phillies Hall
Park was clinched at weight, 130 pounds
nt 2 o'clock. It is scheduled to go eight
rounds. .
BOXINGATICEPALACE
Ring Matches to Be Resumed There

The matches will not be staged under

A FOOTBALL fan takes exception to
our statement that no other single
contest could drnw 00.000 persons nnd
SI, 000,000 through the gate, ns tho
Dempscy-Carpcntler melee did.
"That was a championship affair,
he writes. "Suppose Yale and Har
vard had the two greatest football ma
chines in the country and ns such wcro
exploited far nnd wide. Suppose, when
they met in the chanlplonshlp test, they
were allowed to charge from 55 to $50

"With this granted that game would
easily equal tho receipts at Jersey City,
for on an occasion of that sort $50

All of which has a reasonable ring,
