Mrs.
Mallory Is Defeated,

ROYALTY SEES BATTLE
King and Queen of England At
tend Fight for Tennis
Supremacy of World.
WIMBLEDON, July 8. (By the
Associated Press.) Suzanne Lems
len, the marvelous French girl and
holder of the world's tennis1 cham
pionship for women, playing like
one inspired, won a certain victory
over the American champion, Mcs.
Molla Bjurstedt Mallory, this after
noon. She disposed of her opponent
in two sets, the score being 6-2, 6-0.
This was the event which the ten
nis world had awaited with keenest
interest ever since the match be
tween these two rivals iir the United
States last year, which came to a.
sudden ending through the collapse
of Mile. Lenglen. Great crowds
packed every niche of the great cen
ter court amphitheater; the gates to
the enclosure had long since been
shut and barred. The king and queen
of England were there, the earl of
Balfour himself an ardent exponent
of the game; ex-King Manuel of
Portugal; many lords and ladies
and all the followers of tennis who
could find their way to within sight
ing distance of the courts.
Match Is Great Magnet.
Notwithstanding other contests
promising royal sport, the Lenglen
Mallory match was the great magnet
that attracted and the struggle for
which the thousands waited for
hours in the rain.
Outbursts of applause gave evi
dence of the 'overwhelming par
tiality for the American woman
finalist, but the French girl had
many supporters, who grew in num
bers as she showed her mastery of
the sport. She carried herself with
a poise and confidence. There was
no evidence of nervousness. She
played not only with confidence, but
with deliberation, and thus was able
to find the weak spots in Mrs.
Mallory's armor and take full ad
vantage of them.
More Expected of Enemy.
After the easy maner in which
Mrs. Mallory had disposed of Mrs.
Beamish yesterday in the semi
finals, it was expected that the
American would make today's
match a notable exhibition; it was
thought that an anxious time was
in store for Mile. Lenglen, and that
even if ultimately Mrs. Mallory was
beaten, the French champion would
have full proof that she had been
in a game. As it was, Mile. Lenglen
was the winner from start to finish.
. It is agreed that the American
champion played excellent tennis
and showed pluck and sportsman
ship throughout, but so far as the
contest today was concerned it is
further agreed by the critics that
she was outclassed.
Her game would have disposed of
any other of the speed of Mrs.
Beamish, but with the French girl
"she did not succeed even in getting
under way.
Enemies Face Smilingly.
When the two faced each other
across the net, which they did
smilingly, the rain ceased. Mile.
Le'nglen had the service in the first
game and in this Mrs. Mallory failed
to make a point. In three of the
games of the first set the American
player held the vantage point, but
at these critical stages Suzanne
surpassed herself.
' With remarkable generalship
Mile. Lenglen controlled the posi
tions of both players; she took no
unnecessary risks, only thumping
across hard shots when an ace point
was required. After making a hole
In her opponent's court, the French
girl repeatedly sent over a drive
which could not be reached. Some
times Mrs. Mallory was brought to
the net by a ball dropped pver'so
close that she was unable to get
back; then her opponent put across
a clear winning pass.
Wonderful Placements Made.
At times Mrs. Mallory, too, made
wonderful placements, occasionally
,' putting the ball beyond reach, but
she could not keep the pace long
enough. She hit bravely throughout
but strategy told
Those who expected some show of
nerves on Suzanne's part, in view
of her American experience, were
disappointed for there was never a
moment when she lost her self-
control in any sense and she faced
the critical gallery unflinchingly
On the other hand, Mrs. Mallory
showed considerable nervousness at
times and misjudged shots which
ordinarily would have given her no
trouble whatever.
The match was grimly business
like, neither player evincing any
emotion, annoyance - or distress.
When it ended with only two games
to' Mrs. Mallory's credit both smiled
and conveyed the onlookers' verdict
that the best woman had won.
Mrs. Mallory Plucky.
; Mrs. Mallory continued to fight in
plucky fashion after she had lost
the f'rst sot, showing better tennis
in the second, and smiled when they
m showed a love set against her for
the score hardly did her Justice.
In the second set she reached deuce
in most of the games, but when it
came to a critical moment, Mile.
Lenglen was unbeatable. Her de
fense was impregnable except to a
clean, winning stroko; she seldom
netted or drove the ball out of
"bounds so that her opponent was
compelled always to take risks.
The second game of the second set
was the finest exhibition of all. The
two played on even terms, reaching
deuce. Then Suzanne came to the
net, Mrs. Mallory drove hard to her
opponent's left, the latter volleyed;
Mrs. Mallory drove" again to the
am epot and then a th'rd time.
The French girl amid the first rous
ing cheer she had received, aced her
third volley to within inches of the
base line. Later she got a great
ovation when she killed off Mrs.
Mallory's smash at the net.
Victor Is Greeted.
There was no attempt on the part
of the spectators to shower personal
congratulations on the w'nner.
Among the first to greet her after
she quit the court was Pat O'Hara
Wood, her partner 'n the mixed dou-

bles. Umpire Hillyard of the "Wim

players.
The victory of Gerald L. Patter
son, the Australian star, over J. O.
Anderson, was a praiseworthy come
back in the face of an almost wholly
Anderson gallery and after Patter
son had lost two sets In the first
three, rain stopped the contest after
each had won a set and they were
2-all in the third. In the first set
Patterson's hurricane services and
swift volleying swept Anderson off
his feflt. It went to 5-0, Anderson
being simply unable to intercept
many of the swift services and Pat
terson also used effectively a chop
Btroke with low bound to his op
ponent's backhand. Finally the set
closed 6-1, in Patterson's favor.
In the second set Patterson foot
faulted several times and dropped
two service games. Anderson then
improved, becoming much steadier
off the ground. Patterson netted a
lot of cut-shots and Anderson won
out on the ninth game.
The third set ran to 16 games. An
derson again proving the victor. But
from that on, Patterson, with his
whirlwind service and terrific vol
leying overwhelmed his opponent
and finished the . match an easy
victor.

O'CONNELL MAKES MISTAKE
BY BEING SO CONTRARY
All Week Voung Player Has Been in Bad Batting Slump and Has
Been Riding Umpires- Jimmy Fired From Game Yesterday.
BY L. H. GREGORY.
YOUNG player like Jimmy
O'Connell makes a mistake
by being so crabby. All week "
O'Connell, who has been in a bad
batting slump, has been riding the
umpires for every little thing. He 1
crabbed three minutes once because
a third strike was called on him,
and yesterday he talked so abusive
ly to Umpire Reardon when called
out at second trying to stretch a
single that Reardon fired him from
the game.
O'Connell really Is a classy player
and he ought to be smart enough to
realize how that stuff gets him in
bad and makes it just twice as
hard for him to succeed. Naturally
he is under a handicap from all the
publicity about his sale to the New
York Giants for . $75,000. But ,he
doubles tlfe handicap by displays of
temper when things go wrong.
Willie Kamm, his youthful team
mate, is handicapped just as much
by the $100,000 talk in his 'case, yet
after seeing him in action the fans
like him and pull for him and want
him
to succeed because t he takes

Kamm will make good in the big

Onlx two of the racquet wielders
who won championships at last
year's Oregon state tournament will
be In' the lists for the 1922 tourna
ment, which starts on theIrvington
club courts tomorrow.
They are Miss Mayme McDonald
of Seattle, who won the women's
singles crown and, teamed with
Mrs. R. E.- Bradgen of Seattle, won
the women's doubles, and Herbert
Suhr of San Francisco who, teamed
with Phil Bettens of San Francisco,
won the men's doubles.
None of the other title takers
will be on hand to defend his or
her honors. William Ingraham of
Providence, R. I who won the
singles championships, returned the
Wilbur cup several weeks ago with
regrets that he could not be here
for this year's tournament.
Snhr to Be on Deck.
However, Herbert Suhr, who
fought his way into the finals only
to lose to Ingraham, will be on deck
to try for the title. Suhr arrived
here Friday accompanied by Richard
Simon of San Francisco, another
young net wizard. Suhr and Simon
have been playing the northwest
circuit, and so far so good.
Their first competition was at
Potlatch, Idaho, several weeks ago.
Suhr won the men's singles, being
required to defeat Simons in the
finals to take it. The two men then
paired and won the men's doubles.
Suhr, teamed with Miss Eleanor
Hislop of Spokane, won the mixed
doubles.
Suhr went through the field to
the finals in the singles of the' In
land Empire championship in Spo
kane last week, only to lose then
to P. S. Turenne. Suhr and Simon
were not without honors, however,
winning the doubles crown from
Turenne and Armand Marian. Suhr
and . Miss Hislop, teamed together
for the second time this season, won
the mixed doubles.
Suhr certainly will figure promi
nently for the Oregon singles title,
hut he will have worthy competi
tion. The latest star to enter is
H. ' D. Dickinson of New Jersey.
Dickinson was a member of this
season's Princeton university team
and is rated as one of the best of
the eastern intercollegiate players.
He is Visiting the northwest for the
first time, having decided to make
the trip while the tennis season was
on so he might play in the biggest
northwest tournaments.
Good Competition Faced.
' The return of Henry Stevens from
Harvard several days ago and his
subsequent entry means further top
notch competition. Stevens has long
been one of Portland's best tennis
players. He has figured in cham
pionship tourneys, winning titles or
placing as runner-up in nearly all
events of importance. He played
with the University of California
team for several years. Last year
he enrolled at Harvard university.
Others to uphold the honor of the
state will be Catlin Wolfard, one
time winner of the state title;
Kenneth Smith, captain of the Uni
versity of Washington tennis team
' Rogers MacVeagh, R. V. Bingham.
Harry Grey, I. L. Webster, Milt
Frohman, Ted Steffen and others.
California and Washington as
usual will be well represented.
Besides Suhr from the Bear state
there will be Simon, Bill. Whelan,
Elmer Griffin, Bill Marcus and Van
Dyke Johns, all excellent players of
possible championship caliber.
Although Suhr will not have
Bettecs with him in the men's
doubles, he will have in Simon
formidable partner. Last year Suhr
and ' Bettens defeated a pair of
classy players in the finals when
they won from Bill Ingraham of
Rhode Island and Charles Stickney
of California, Suhr and Bettens
won into the finals by defeating
Catlin Wolfard and Henry Stevens,
1-6, 6-0, 6-4, 6-2. , Ingraham and
Stickney defeated Walter A. Goss
and Ed Murphy in the other bracket
of the semi-finals. Goss and Murphy
put up a stubborn battle after los
ing two straight sets, 6-1, 6-2. They
took the third set 10-12, but were
unable to stand up under the
winners' smashing play and were
6-0 victims in the final and decid

GIANTS HOLDING GROUND
BATTLE . MOST SENSATIONAL
IX MAJORS THIS SEASON.
Eighteen Innings Needed to Take
Game Kelly's Second Homer
of Contest Decides It.
CHICAGO, July 8. (By the Asso
ciated Press.) The Giants were
holding their own against western
rivals today, but only after the long
est aiul most sensational battle in
either league this season their
9-to-8 victory over Pittsburg yes
terday in 18 gruelling innings.
George Kelly's second home run of
the game, with Ross Young on base,
turned the tide in the ISth, after
both teams had gone scoreless since
the ninth. The champions needed
both tallies, for the Pirates came
within a run of tying the count
again in their last frame at bat.
Aside from Kelly, the Individual
atars of the fray were Gooch and
Carey of the Priates, each of whom
rapped out six hits. Carey's per
formance, however, was the more
notable, for he had a perfect day at
rai, walking three times in addition
o his half dozen bingles. besides
stealing home once, second twice
and scoring three runs. Hi record
of six hits in as many times at bat
nas been duplicated only twice in
the past score of years" in National
league history, George Cutshaw
turning the trick with Brooklyn in
1915 and Dave Bancroft of the
Giants duplicating it in 1920.
The Pirate-Giant strugsle, how
ever, was only one bright spot in a
record-breaking day for both
leagues. Other star performances
were: Roger Hornsby's 21st home
run, giving his team a ninth- in
ning victory over Brooklyn and put
ting him ahead of Ken Williams in
the clouting race; a nine-run rally
by Ty Cobb's rampant Tiges in the
ninth inning to gain a double vic
tory over Washington, imi Waite
Hoyt's brilliant shut-out of Cleve
land, 1 to 0, putting the Yankees
only a half game from the league
lead.
The pace-setting St. Louis Browns
dropped a 13-inning tussle to Bos
ton. 5 to 4, after Urban Shocker
blanked the Red Sox in the first
game. Ken Williams gave vent to
an outburst in the first game, dis
puting Umpire Evans' decision be
hind the ulate, and was. banished.
Babe Ruth's single brought in the
only run of the New York-Cleveland
game and gave the Yankees their
third straight victory over the In
dians. Tyrus Raymond Cobb today is
making his bid for the batting lcad
ership of the American league, with
the prospect of giving George Sis
ler of the St. Louis club a desper
ate fight.
Within a week, the noted Georgian
batted his way from sixth to sec
ond place in the list of leaders for
an average of .391, just 24 points
above his mark of a week ago. The
Detroit leader's remarkable batting
resulted in slashing out 17 hits in
his last seven games, while the best
Sisler could do was nln in five
games. Sisler, however, Is en
trenched in the lead with an aver
age of .430. The figures include
games of Wednesday.
Sisler also is clinging to the lead
in base stealing with 27, while Ken

THAMES CLCB ENTRANT- DE
FEATED .BY 50 YARDS.
J. Beresford Jr. Far Outdistanced
by Walter M. Hoover, Who
Takes Trophy to Dulutli.
HENLEY ON THAMES, England,
July 8. (By the Associated Press.)
Rowing a stream-line racing shell
of his own design over the famous
Royal Regatta course in the face
of a strong wind and a driving rain.
Walter M. Hoover, the crack Ameri
can sculler, outdistanced his oppo
nent, J. Beresford Jr., of the Thames
Rowing club, by nearly 50 yards to
day and the Diamond Sculls trophy,
blue ribbon trophy in the world of
oarsmen, will follow Hoover to his
native city, of Duluth.
The time made by the American
for the course of one mile, 554) yards,
was 9 minutes 32 seconds, more than
a minute longer than the Diamond
Sculls record but Henley officials
believe that Hoovet's sculling, un
equaled on the Thames in many
years, would have brought a record
under normal weather conditions.
They are anxious for the American
to return to England in 1923 to de
fend his trophy and try for a rec
ord. Hoover announced himself will
ing if he can make the necessary
arrangements.
Hoover rowed against one of the
best English scullers. Beresford,
descended from a family of oarsmen,
having spent much of iis time since
early boyhood in a shell on the
Thames, under the guidance of his
father, an oarsman of some repute
in his day.
The American went into the lead
at the start and the Englishman
was compelled to follow In his wake
all the way. Leading by a length at
the quarter, he steadily increased
the distance separating him from
Beresford. ,
The Englishman appeared to be
greatly handicapped by the rough
water and after Hoover started away
from him he continued with a stroke
of 32 for a time, in an effort to
make up some of the distance but
soon was obliged to reduce his pull
to 23 to the minute. This he main
tained to the finish with a steady
loss of distance.
"One of the finest exhibitions in
the long history of the rowing
classic," was the way English vet
erans described Hoover's race, de
claring the American the world's
best sculler.
