    Johnston Is Defeated While Tilden Wins Against Antipodeans in
Davis Cup Play
Anderson Beats
Little Bill in
Feature Contest
Defeat Was First Johnston
Has Tasted in His Long
Career as a Player in
Davis Cup Competitions.
Forest Hills, N. Y., Aug. 31.—Prov
ing an unexpected formidable menace
to America's tennis supremacy, Aus
tralia’s Davis Cup challenging forces
broke even with the United States
today in the two singles matches
marking the opening of 1923 play for
the historic trophy that carries with
it the emblem of world's team cham
pionship.
William M. (Little Bill) Johnston,
one of Uncle Sam's chief hopes in
the title struggle, went down to de
feat before James O. Anderson, Aus
tralian captain, in a spectacular
gripping five-set battle, 4 6, 6-2, 2-6,
7-6, 6-2, but William T. Tilden, na
tional champion, evened the score
for the United States, when he
crushed John B. Hawkes in a daz
zling brilliant exhibition in straight
sets, 6-4, 6-2. 6-1.
Anderson’s Victory a Surprise.
Anderson’s victory over the Cali
fornian, who this year won the title
of world’s champion'at Wimbledon,
fame as a startling surprise to ten
nis followers who had considered
Johnston and Tilden virtually in
vincible in the realm of international
play. Upsetting the hopes and cal
culations of the cup defenders, it
faced America with the most danger
ous challenge she has had in the last
three years, a challenge which can
only be flung back by victory in two
of the remaining three matches of
the series.
Tomorrow Hawkes and Anderson
will face Tilden and R. Norris Wil
liams, American captain, a new In
ternational combination. In the third
match, while on Monday Tilden will
play Anderson and Johnston will op
pose Hawkes In the remaining singles
matches. Thus the winner cannot
he determined before Monday and
should Anderson maintain1 the daz
zling pace he displayed today, the
bid of the Antipodeans for victory
will be no less powerful than it is
determined.
Taking rank among the epics of Da
vis cup history, the Johnston-Ander
son battle thrilled a colorful gallery
of about 10,000 fans that filled close
to capacity the big. new stadium of
the West Side Tennis club. But
though Anderson flashed to his most
brilliant heights In coming from be
hind to win after dropping two of
the first -three sets, his victory, in
the opinion, was due no less to his
own brilliance than the fact that
Johnston for the most part fell far
helow his usual standard of play.
Both players were alternately erratic
and spectacular as they fought point
for point, but in the end Anderson's
superior stamina and greater accu
racy at crucial moments prevailed.
First Davis Cup Defeat.
The defeat was the first Johnston
has ever suffered in Davis cup play.
In three previous years of competi
tion he'had won 12 matches In singles
and doubles, the latter with Tilden as
his partner.
The T i 1 d e n - Hawkes encounter,
though it gave America a much
needed victory, was an anti-climax to
the Johnston-Anderson match, which
had held the crowd in suspense for
more than an hour and a half. Tilden,
bringing the full battery of his bril
liant strokes into play, overwhelmed
Hawkes almost from the start. The
left-handed Australian proved n hard
and aggressive driver, but he was out
classed by the American champion.
Tomorrow's program, in addition
to the cup doubles match, will include
two exhibition attractions. Vincent
Richards, fourth member of the
American international team, will
pair with his Wimbledon partner,
Francis T. Hunter, in n doubles con
test with the reservists of the Aus
tralian team. Inn Mrlnnes and Rich
ard Schlessinger. Manuel Alonso of
Spain will oppose Brian I. C. Norton,
South African star, in a singles ex
hibition.

Burch May Get
Island Player
V
Before nightfall Barney Burch may
have a new second baseman for his
Buffalo herd.
Burch is angling for Second Base
man Thompson of the Grand Island
club and is reported to have offered
the Grand Island management a pret
ty nice sum of money for this Island
er. So the story goes, Grand Island
was willing to let Thompson go, but
not before next Tuesday. This Burch
refused to agree on, so he is going to
hold another meeting with the state
league directors this evening.
Several days ago Lee Keiser, presi
dent of the Des Moines Boosters, in
formed Burch that he would send
either Koenig or Nelson, inftelders, to
Burch while the Buffaloes were at
Denver. Yesterday the Des Moines
club owner wired Burch that he was
unable to let either one of his men
go at this time of the season.
Before the Buffaloes left for Den
ver, Burch released Don Brown, out
fielder, for the remainder of the sea
son. Don left for his home in the
south, but will report to the Buffaloes
at the training camp next spring.
In Brown’s place, the Omaha owner
took Inflelder Pizer.
Greb Is Winner of
Middleweight Title

landed lightly And then they clinched,
swinging both arms. The champion con
tinued the body attack he began In the
previous round. But Greb kept gingerly
on the offensive. Greb *»ent three short
rights to the Jaw and then his left to
the body, followed by three rights to the
body. Wilson missed a right and Greb
landed a hard right to the head. They
rseumed their half-clinching, hitting with
their free hands, but Greb in the next
clinch held with his left and had the
better of the one-handed fighting. The
challenger swung a hard right to the
head as the round ended.
Round Eight.
Again after a slow start. Greb lent a
left to the bo<ly and then began to punch
Wilson's left eye. which was half closed.
Wilson was unable to solve Greb's clumsy
and unorthodox attack and was simply
blocking the leads which came from
the most unexpected quarters. Greb held
again with his left and punched with
his right to the body, both «t short
tango and with long swings. Greb held
again and Wilson was unuble to counter
much, but as the challenger advanced
Greb sunk two vicious rights In, the
short ribs Greb was again warned for
holding, but it did not atop him. for he
landed a dozen more blows from that
Sositlon and had the champion obviously
ewildered when the round ended
Round Nine.
They sparred a little, while Greb
analyzed his opponent's condition before
plowing In. digging both fists to th*
body. Grebb landed a hard right to the
head and Wilson backed to the ropes,
covering his face with his hsnds while
the Pittsburgher whacked away. Wilson
grabbed Greb around the waist to hold
on and the rhallcnger slipped to the
floor. The challenger was hard at it
again In a clinch and sent a very dim
av’ng right smash to the head. 1 ne
cKamplon looked as though ho were
wavering. He dug a short right to
Greb'. midribs and dispatched a right
and left to the chin before the bell rail
ed the round.

Dempsey Kayoes
Lumberjack Boxer
in Training Camp
Champion Reveals His Hit
ting Power hy Dropping
200-Pound Fighter in
, First Round
Saratoga Springs. N. Y., Aug. 31 —
tack Dempsey's hitting powers were
■evealed again today whfn the heavy
weight champion knocked out Jules
Rloux, a 200-pound French Canadian
lumberjack, and severely punished
the other two sparring jwirtners who
laced him In the gruelling five rounds
bf boxing.
As a result of shaking off the cold
that, has bothered him for a week.
Dempsey worked with greatly im
proved form. The champion engaged
in eight rounda of work. He went
through a snappy round of light bag
punching and a round of shadow
boxing before putting on the gloves
to face Hay Newman, a 173-pound
fighter from Jersey City, for the
opening two rounds. Dempsey di
rected his attack to Newman's body,
hooking him solidly with lefts to the
ribs and Jolting rights under the
heart.
Rloux, who engaged In a light
workout with Dempsey u couple of
limes ten days ago, returned to
-amp today with his fiery little man
iger and promptly requested another
hance with the champion. He was
accommodated after Dempsey finished
with Newman, ltloux sparred timid
ly for a moment, and Dempsey
booked three lefts to the chin thut
tent him staggering.
The champion backed away to per
•nit his opponent to recover, and
then hooked a left to the hody and a
right to the chin. Rloux dropped to
his knees, hut quickly Jumped to his
feet. Another short right dropped
him for the second time. Rloux
blinked nervously when he struggled
to his feet. Dempsey hacked away
tor a second and then shot over a
short left hook that caught the big
Frenchman on the chin. He crashed
to the floor, rolling over on his bark
completely knocked out.
George Godfrey, the 225-pound ne
gro sparring mate, stood outside the
ring awaiting his turn with the
champion .with eyes hujging and his
mouth open, watching the ramp at
lendnnta drag the unconscious ltloux
to tho corner of tho ring where he
was revived with a dash of cold
water.
Godfrey tried to keep out ef range
during the two rounds he faced
Dempsey, hut Jack managed to nail
him with right crosses and left
hooks to the chin that Jarred him to
the heels. Tho big negro continually
poked his left Into Dempsey's face in
an effort to keep tho champion off
balance.
Jack MoAullffo, who was all hut
knocked out yesterday, was given a
day's rest. Farmer Dodge, a Mlnne
sola giant, arrived in camp nnd prnb
ably will bo called upon tomorrow.

Lowers Mile Record of
Fourteen Years’
Standing.
Chicago, Aug. 31.—Ancient rivals
again settled an old score—for the
time being—today on Stagg field at
the University of Chicago, when the
Illinois Athletic club’s team laid
Haim in performance to the National
A. A. U. junior track and field cham
pionship after a two-day struggle
through half the card with the fa
vored team of the Chicago Athletic
association. The victors closed their
books with 48 points; the addition of
the Cherry Circle scorers reached
only to 45.
The University of Iowa and the
Boston A. A. tied for third place,
with 10 points each, and the Uni
versity of Missouri took fifth place,
with 9.
Three new Junior records were es
tablished in the meet, one of which
broke a mark of 14 years’ standing.
L. Hahn, a brilliant mller from the
Boston A. A., put out the first rec
ord by doing his four-turn piece on
the quarter-mile oval in four min
utes and 23 seconds, against the rec
ord of 4 minutes 24 3 5 seconds by
Ballard, also of 'the Boston A. A. in
1909. His finish, five yards ahead
of W. Cox of the Rochester (N. Y.)
Y. M. C. A., and 20 yards ahead of
the field, was one of the most bril
liant track performances ever seen
In a Junior field.
R. Juday, a railroader running un
der the colors of the Pennsylvania
Railroad Athletic club, established
the high jump record at 8 feet 2 1-8
inches, one-eighth of an inch better
than the old mark of L. A Watson
of the Alpha P. C. club in 1920. The
leap was two inches higher than that
of E. C. Norton of the Illinois A. C..,
who took second place.
The third record making execution
waa by L. N. Priever of the Mlaeis
•ippi A. and M. college. He pitched
the javelin 180 feet 612 inches,
against the record of 178 feet 4 1*4
Inches of Arthur Tuck of the Mult
nomah A. C. of Seattle of 1919 The
throw was 12 feet, six inchea better
than that of Lineenfelter of Drake
university, who placed second in the
event today. *

Margaret Dillon
Beats Single G.
in Free-for-All
Readville, Mass . Aug. 31.—Mar
garet Dillon, the hay mare that has
been challenging Single G. for pacing
honors all season, defeated the vet
eran in straight heats today in the
free for all pace on the closing day’s
program of the Grand circuit meet
ing here. Dee Worthy, piloted by
White, won the Blue Hill free for all
trot, the other feature of the day.
Junior Hal captured first place In
the Justin Edwards 2:15 pace.
A fourth heat was necessary to
decide the winner of the 2:12 trot,
won in the final heat by Mary Anne,
driven by Murphy. Murphy won his
third victory of the way by winning
the 2:1« trot with Volo Chimes.
The defeat of Single G. was the
second of the year for the veteran
pacer, now in his twelfth season.
Murphy drove Margaret Dillon around
in front all of the way in the first
mile and held a lead too great for
Single G. to overcome on the stretch.
Sir Koch led two-thirds of the dis
tance in the second mile. Single G.
finished third.
Peter Florentine won the 2:14 race,
after Bengal, spectacular winner in
the first heat, broke and was dijr/
taneed in the second. The schedui^Pr
2:03 and 2 09 paces were called off
owing to the length of the program.
