Awful slaughter at Islantl Park. Notwithstanding the censorship on the makeup of two patrolmen teams yesterday, Harrisburg coppers should j have all the credit possible for win- ; ring the second game from Mayor ; Walker's Altoona champs. The dis patches say it was a sorrowful crowd at the Altoona police station last night; when they read the war bulletins and realized that no longer does the Moun tain City have the champion police ! team of Pennsylvania. In reckoning with Amos Draben etadt, leader of the Harrisburg cop pers, it should not be forgotten that Amos was once a baseball player. He knows just how to pick a team. With Taylor. Murphy, "Baldy" and "Jawn" I Hess, the new England League twirler, [ now a traffic copy, playing for Har- i rfsburg, the Altoona team must come j stronger if they want to win. Yesterday's eame was full of inter- j est. Of the 5.600 tickets sold 3,000 ; were turned in at the gate. Harry White and .lohnnv Murnane, the de- I tectives, also received large contri- ' butions at the grandstand. This means I that the Mayor's quick charity fund ! will be swelled and there will now be j some cash for winter coal for poor I folks. Hil> Factor Hits wer • iN factor in the victory j of the Harrisburg patrolmen. Pitcher ; Hess also figured, having ten strike- | outs to his credit. Stohr started the j twirling for the Altoona bunch. He | had poor support and near the close of the game was all in. having been I pounded all over the lot. Bennett, who j took his place, showed better form. ! but he had little time to do any good j work. It was the Hess "fadeaway" I that did the trick. The lonely run for I Altoona in the sixth came on Holmes- J burg's double and Stehr's single.

ONCE MORE Wins Take Doubles Match From Ameri cans in the Davis Cup Series j New York, Aug. 15.—America's su-j ! premacy in athletics received another | setback yesterday, when Norman E. 1 Brookes and Anthany F. Wilding, rep resenting Australasia, defeated Maur-: ice E. McLoughlin and Thomas C. | ; Bundy, national doubles champions and defenders of the Davis cup. on the turf courts of the West Side Ten- j nis Club at Forrest Hills, Long Island, i in the third contest of the series in straight sets, 6-3, S-6, 9-7. The victory i places Australasia in the lead, 2 to 1,1 | and it will be necessary for America to capture both singles matches to- j day in order to retain the trophy. Although defeated in straight sets, the match was a brilliant one and! served to bring out the splendid pluck ! jof McLoughlin and Bundy. who, al-« i though facing the recognized world's 1 doubles champions, went down to de- j 1 feat with colors flying. It was another record-breaking rep-1 j recentatlve crowd that watched the ! struggle, and many persons promi ! nent in social, professional, business and sporting circles encouraged the; ! efforts of the four players with impar tial applause. From the time McLoughlin began j the contest by serving to the Austral-! jasians up to the moment when Bundy 1 j drove the ball into the net for the j | tinal winning point, the 12,000 specta-; | tors followed every stroke and move- ] iment of the opposing players with; j keen expectancy. Serving Was Fast j As in most high class doubles in j these d«S - s of fast serving .the match! ; was a battle of serves, and every game j settled into a struggle to turn the at- 1 itack against the serving side and a' Head of a single game with the service; |on its side next almost invariably j 1 meant a set for either side. In the first set Bundy lost his very) ! First game, the fourth of the match.; and that ended the set, which went to the challengers quickly after that at! ;tS-3. servers winning each game there-j I after.- In the second set Brooks lost I his first service and the Americans ! I had a royal chance, but McLoughlin; j himself, the best server of the four.! lost the fifth game, and the challeng- j j ers were back even again. 1 The score then alternated until Mc- Loughlin served again in the thir teenth gan.e, when the Australasians ; once more broke through the Amer ican champion's service for a lead that (hey quickly turned into a command | ing advantage of two sets to love. In justice to _>undy, who will have! to botr the brunt of the blame for: ! losing the doubles, it must be ad-1 knitted that McLoughlin did not play I nearly the game he did against Brookes on Thursday. His ervice did ) not have as much sting to It as on the ( first day. and he failed to get it into; [court as regularly. In ground strokes,! too, he was not as reliable but this \ was somewhat dtie to his having to ! carry the greatest responsibility of j winning points without having the op-1 portunity to do so. The challengers naturally directed their attack chiefly against the weak est point in the American team, andj McLoughlin was kept out of the play I as much as possible. The scores by sets follow: FIRST SET Brookes and Wilding— -55484091 5—41—6 McLoughlin and Bundy— -37260474 3—36 3 SECOND SET Brookes and Wilding— -1224442624356 4—49 8 McLoughlin and Bundy— -44412144 1 2534 0—42—6 THIRD SET Brookes and Wilding— -262424383454244 5—62—9 McLoughlin and Tundy— -444041565172420 3—52—7 Baseball Today ; Scores of Yesterday WHERE THEY PLAT TODAY Trt-St«te l.rniai Harrlftburft at Heading, I.ancnMcr at Trenton. >\ llmintituD at Allentown.

Two of the contests, the $3,000 Burdick Hoael stake for 2.10 pacers, and the 2.12 pace, went live and six heats, respectively, and were grueling struggles.
