The American players won their first two matches today against Germany In the Bemi-flnal round of the preliminary contests for the selection of a team to challenge England for the Dwight F. Davis International lawn tennis trophy and stand more than a good chance of qualifying for the final round. R. Norrls "Williams, of Philadelphia and Harvard University, after a little trouble in the beginning of his match with Oscar Kreutzer and the loss of the third set, pulled out a winner in what, after all, was not a difficult con. test. The German put little Are Into the game, but made some pretty back hand strokes. Williams, on the other hand, relied on volleys and long drives, which,' at first, were not strong or well placed, but later improved marvelously. The German won his set by keeping the American in the back court, where there was no chance of volleying. Will lams won, 6-4, 6-2. 4-6, 6-1. The more exciting match was that between Maurice E.

In the beginning the German was able to get many hack-hand strokes over with great speed and also picked up the American's service coolly.

Heavy Hitters Now Used Will Down Bailing List Two Recent Examples of This Indi cate That Results AVII1 Justify tne Innovation. w rilLH, there may appear nothinsr unusual about a Portland Coast or a New York National box score upon a cursory examination, yet there is hidden in the jumble of figures the story of a new development in the scl ence of baseball. Heavy hitters usually occupy the first five position on the bat tins- or der. That has been the rule since Hek was a poodle purp. But New York has a .300 hitter, Fred Snodgrass, batting eigntn and Portland has Elmer Loher. also a .300 biffer, batting in seventh. Mcuraw explains his reasons thus tersely: It has Just occurred to me that this ioea or putting the two weakest hit ters on a team seventh and eierhth. where they can spoil a rally, is fossi lized foolishlness. If the seventh or eighth man Is s siugger," aaaea jawn, "he will come to the rescue time and time again and, what's more, if he is down In eighth, where Snodgrass is, will do away with tne prooiem mat confronts a manager wuen it s a close pincn, the pitcher ud and one down. In that situation you usually yank a pitcher and send up a reserve batter. - If he falls down you have accomplished nothing and have lost a pitcher. With your eighth batter a .300 point man you nave a good show to srt him on, none out and your Ditcher un then you can take a chance on keet- ing your pitcher in. as he may at least' deliver a sacrifice or advance the run ner on his out." Walter McCredie. .manager of th Portland Coasters, has been beseeched several times by members of his club to move Lober up higher. "1 intend to keep Lober riirht wh he is." replied Mac. "He is knocking half of our runs now and I can't in look for more than that. He comes up with men on bases and perhaps would not If I had him placed somewharx else." E. Patch Dies at Vancouver.

EX - CHAMPION' HEAVYWEIGHT NO MATCH FOR. PROTEGE. want Boxer Displays Ring Crafti ness Madden Spars In Ex hibition Rounds. Tommy Burns is on strike. Bat' tered, bruised, sore in mind and body tne rormer heavyweight champion boxer of the world has placed his protege, Arthur Pelky, on the spar ring oiacKiist. jso more will he act as punching bag for Pelkey. 1 am telegraphing to Los Angeles for Al Norton, McCarty's former spar ring mate," said Burns last nlarht. " am so badly bruised as a result of box ing with Pelkey that I can hardly mucn my nana with my fingertips. Pelkey has a terrible wallon and I'm airaiu my cnier concern on this the atrlcal tour will be to keep him sun- pi:ea witn Doxing partners. .Burns hereafter expects to confirm his talents to introducing Pelkey and acting as referee at the exhibitions. Pelkey appeared In three perform ances at the Lyric theater yesterday and boxed nine rounds, all told, with Larry Madden, the Portland police favorite. i ne Heavies put up an ex cellent exhibition and Madden showed up favorably against Pelkev. There is no discounting thn fact. however, that, for a 205 pounder. Pel- key is exceptionally speedy. Unlike the aveage heavyweight. Pelkev's mind works rapid fire and he ducks and shifts like a middleweight. His chief punch seems to be a straight right, and as he holds this back for the most part in his exhibitions, one can oniy surmise how good Pelkev really is. In his favor it can be said that he aoes not telegraph ' his blows, a la Willard -and most other big fellows. Burns has - drilled him thoroughly In the wiles of . the short jolt, and he works his mitts like a piston. ... jacK 1-lng, Madden s manager and one or those who first saw In Bud Anaerson championship Dosslbllltles blames Dick Donald for Buddy's defeat Dy Leach Cross. "When Donald signed to meet Cross at- clean breaks he practically signed away the fight," said Mr. King yester day.

Portland pitcher, was the only member of the Venice team who saw the fight at Vernon July 4. The "Sphinx" says Cross won be cause of superior ring generalship. He believes Anderson yet has a chance to climb to near the top. ... 1 don't think there Is much-chano of Cross ever becoming champicm light weight of the world," murmured Mike McCormick, popular inflelder of the Portland Coast club and the fistic authority on the bench. 'My home Is at Jersey City and I have seen him box a half hundred times. Why, Jack Britton made him ook like the deuce of spades. Anv boxer that keeps away can beat him.
