SOME CHAMPIONS AND A HOT-DAY GALLERY OF THE OREGON STATE TENNIS CHAMPIONSHIP PLAY FINISHED ON THE MDLTNO-
hour. The leading boat, so far. seems
to take the seas better each day, haa
less fuss under ber lee bow, and rolls
and slides over the waves Instead of
lunging into them, as she was doing
with heavier gear aloft. Tha Defiance,
experts believe, would be even better.
In the same conditions, were the small

CINCINNATI. O.. July 18. Clarence
J. Griffln. of San Francisco, won today
the clay court championship tennis
title from Ella Fottreli. also of San
Francisco, but It was by the closest
possible margin. The match went five
set, three of which were hard-fought
and in which some of the prettiest ex
hibitions of tennis skill ever seen here
was shown. Endurance proved the vic
tor In the match, for at one time Fot
treli was within a single point of an
nexing the honor. The acorea were 3-6.
-8. 8-6. 6-0. 6-2.
Fottreli bad his man at his mercy
during the first set. The steady, care
ful game for wnlch Griffln is noted
proved successful In the long run, how
ever, for after the first set the points
began to grow on the side of Griffln.
While he lost the second set by a close
margin, yet his steady drives along the
line began to tell on the fast-tiring
Fottreli In the third set. It was at this
point that the climax of a remarkable
altuation was reached.
Fottreli annexed the first three games
In this set after all or tbem had gone
to deuce several times. Griffin's won
derful placing then began to tall, for
he took the fourth and fifth games
rather handily. Fottreli gathered In
the sixth and Griffln came back strong,
winning the seventh and eighth and
making the score four all. Fottreli
took the ninth and Griffln the 10th.
Then Fottreli took the 11th and took
the first three points In the 12th, there
by being within one point of the cham
pionship. threat Rally Saves Player.
Here, however, Griffln rallied, deuced
the game and then won Unmaking the
game 6-6 on the set. Fottreli had been
noticed to falter. His drives lacked
the force that had characterised them
during the surlier games, and after two
hard-fought games Griffln won his first
act.
By this time Fottreli was almost In
a state of complete exhaustion and it
required 10 minutes' rest before he
was able to resume play. When he
did. his efforts were almost pitiful.
What had heretofore been drives de
veloped into short chops and his re
turns were of the weakest. Griffln,
gaining confidence at every stroke, ran
out the set. 6-0, allowing Fottreli only
few scattered points.
In the fifth and final set Griffln
took tha first three games easily, but
Fottreli braced, getting baek to some
thing like hia old form, and by a tre
mendous effort won the fourth and
fifth gamea. This, however, used up
all of his reserve endurance, and the
remainder of the match was easy for
Griffin, he winning the next three
games, with Fottrleli scoring only a
point in each game.
Mary llrotta Has Straggle.
Miss Mary Browne, of Los Angeles,
likewise had quite a struggle In win
ning the women's championship. She
defeated her sister. Mrs. Williams, of
Chicago, but It required two out of
three sets. Mrs. Williams succeeded In
winning only the second game of the
first set. but in the second set the
Chicago woman brought the audience
to its feet by taking the first five
games from the champion. Miss
Browne then won the sixth, seventh
and eighth, but Mrs. Williams by sheer
pluck and good service, won the ninth
game and the set. Miss Browne took
no more chances and ran out the third
and deciding set by a score of six
games to two.
Miss Browr.e and ber sister, Mrs.
Williams, also won the -women's dou
bles, defeating Miss Mary Lyons, of
Louisville, and Miss Marjorie Dodd, of
Cincinnati.
It had been previously announced
that John Strachan, the title-holder in
men's singles, would not defend his
title, and the championship round will
not be played.
Tha terrific play in the man's sin
gles wore out both participants to such
an extent that Claude Wayne and Nat

OLYMPIC TROPHY HERE
J. K. Sl'LLIVA! BRINGS SYMBOL OF
1013 VICTORY FROM PARIS.
Europeans Said t Have Adopted
Americas Training Methods and
Rules Will Be t'nlform.
NEW YORK, July 13. The silver
trophy symbolic of victory In the
Olympic games, won In the 1912 games
by America, was brought here by James
E. Sullivan, secretary or the American
Amateur Athletic Union, who arrived
today from Paris. It has thus far
been held by France, England, Den
mark, Germany, Sweden and the United
States.
Speaking of the Increased interest
taken In athletics throughout Europe,
Secretary Sullivan said that American
training methods were being adopted
rapidly and thut he held the promise of
the attendance of at least 100 foreign
athletes at the Panama games In San
Francisco next year.
During the last two months, Secre-1
tary Sullivan and 12 other American J
delegates have taken part In the Paris j
conference and meeting of the Inter- i
national Federation at Lyons. France,
at which the rules governing all
future Olympic meets were discussed
and altered in many Important points
and in nearly every instance in con
nection with the suggestions of the
American delegations.
"Practically all the American rules
were adopted and after the first of
next January uniform rules will be in
operation over all the world," said Mr.
Sullivan. "The implements used In
athletics, such as the discus, hammer,
Javelin and weights will be the same as
in use In America today. Crossbars
and pins in Jumping and other con
tests will be alike, penalties will
be inflicted for false starts In
Olympic races. In the weight events
competitors must remain witbln the
ring from which they throw and
there will be no cause for argument
on these matters."
Boxing and golf were added to the
list of Olympic sports through the
efforts of the American delegates.
These as well as swimming, wrestling,
gymnastic and other branches of sport
will be governed by separate federa
tions and a special championship cup
will be awarded in each branch.

Clarke County Season Opens and

RIDGEFIELD, Wash., July 18- (Spe

which opened Friday, permitting the
catching of bass, croppies, perch, bull
heads or sunfish, many Clarke County
sportsmen In this section and that of
Pioneer have taken out licensee,
can be secured at Ridgefield. The
past few days the requests for these
licenses have been larger than they
ever were before, both young and old
desiring them.
This year, same as the past several
years, the hunting and fishing license
is all In one.
Gee Creek, one of the most favor
able trout streams here, just east of
Ridgefield. was recently closed by the
county game warden, John M. Hoff,
and will be closed for a year or two
to allow the fish to grow. There arc,
however, ' many other good trout
streams in and around Ridgefield and
should make good fishing. Bullheads
seem to be very plentiful here In Lake
River. Salmon trout, however, are
scarce at this time.

NEW YORK, July 18. (Special.)
Another week of rather unsatisfactory
racing has left the cup defease commit
tee still doing a lot of figuring on the
candidates. Resolute. Reliance and
Vanitie, one of which is to meet the
Shamrock IV In September.
While the Resolute Is being pushed
harder each race, and It is still re
garded as the most likely candidate,
the speed shown by the Defiance has
been the feature of the week's racing.
On three occasions the Defiance has
crossed the Vanitle's bows in windward
work, and her backers believe, In a
fresh breeze and tumbling sea, the tri
city candidate will beat the other two.
Yesterday's trial was the last for
12 days, for, until July 30, the craft
will undergo alterations and repairs,
after which they will meet In five
runs, from port to port, and two races
under the New York Yacht Club cruis
ing schedule. After this will come an
other week of rest, and then the final
series, beginning off Newport on
August 15.
There is considerable complaint
among the yachtsmen who are closely
following the sport that there should
be some more tests off the Sandy Hook
course, where conditions are often
times considerably different than off
Newport, and where the defending
skipper could get better experience
with the tides, currents and airs, which
would be of benefit in the cup con
test. The Resolute is absolutely too fast
for the other two in the typical Sandy
Hook racing conditions the long,
greasy roll and faint airs. Practically
all the more recent races on this
course have been under Just such con
ditions, and in the first race of the
week, when the Resolute pulled across
the line a winner, she was Just three
miles In advance of the Vanitie, second
boat. The breeze was four knots an
