First it was a pitchers' battle such as hasn't been duplicated all year, and then at the end there was plenty of slugging to suit the fans that prefer that kind of a game; and the Senators won, 8 to 4, t please the boys who like any sort pf game just so the home team wins. Then there were the incidental thrills; the run that looked as big as a dozen In a game like that, scored by the Senators In the fourth Inning; then the bunting attack engineered by "Red" Ru pert from the bench, which tied the score in the sixth; and the Senators' lightning play that pre vented the rally from going any farther. Then the real batting rally featured by Ridings and Sul livan in the last half of the sixth, which put Salem two runs to the good; and finally the heavy slug ging by both teams in their last sessions at bat. Up to the fourth, the players went out one-two-thrce on both sides excepttbat Quinn. first man up for the Senators, walked, and Ross of Albany got a single In the third, only to be cut off at second and the inning ended with a double play. Keber broke up the deadlock in the fourth " by opening Salem's half with a long drive to left field; Ridings sacrificed him to second In capable fashion, and he took third on a passed ball when Cole man's speed became just a little too much for the youthful Wilkin son behind the bat. Coleman bore down harder than ever and fanned Sullivan, but Wilkinson bobbled the third strike and Billy hotfooted it for first. Wilkinson threw him out, but Ke ber slid in to the plate ahead of McReynolds' throw. It was close enough to start an argument. Hite, rookie left fielder in Ru pert's outfit, hit one to left field to start Albany's rally in the sixth. Coleman bunted and Beck bobbled it; then Smith beat out a runt to Heenan, and the bases were parked.

PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT, en ronte to Amster dam, July 16 (AP) As a result of tests showing conclusively that Fait Elkins has failed to recover bis form, the American Olympic committe today voted unanimous ly in favor of rejecting an appeal that the Indian decathlon star be given a place on the team.

A mishap marred the workouts aboard the Olympic ship today.

Quinn sacrificed him along, and he took third on Ktber'a infield out. Then Ridings hit one that looked like a homer, but it fell just short of the fence in center field for a two bagger, and Beck strolled to the plate. Sullivan rattled the boards in right field and Ridings streaked around for the second score of the inning. Ollnger singled in the seventh, but was caught trying to make two bases on a fielder's choice. He might have scored by holding second for the time being, as Ed wards singled. ; The Senators blanked the visit ors for two more .innings, in the seventh on a strikeout and a dou ble play and in the eighth on three strikeouts credited to Beck. sailed for Europe early this morn ing.

(AP), While rain hovered In the sky and teats ana the ring Uk cogged wader an early downfall, pudgy- Pete Latxo, pride of this anthracite mining center, battled with all the vici&usness and pride of a kid fighting in his own back yard bat in vain to night for Tommy Loughrane light heavyweight championship. Game as his stand was. furious as his gallant attack, the brown skinned youth who once burrowed for coal beside many of the 15,000 spectators here tonight was forced to bow for the second time this season to the mastery of the Phil adelphia Adonis. By the narrowest of margins was one of the most vicious skir mishes of the outdoor season de cided in Loughran's favor after ten rounds of the kind of milling that had even the spectators, bit ter partisans in this all-Pennsyl vania struggle, righting among themselvea. The Associated Press score card gave Loughran five ronnds with four for the challen ger and one even. A little over two months ago. Latxo, once the ' welterweight champion but now grown to a full-fledged light heavyweight, battled Loughran on almost even terms in a 15 round go in Ebbets Field. Brooklyn. And tonight, as then, the gameness and plunging, two-fisted attack of the challenger came within an ace of stripping Loughran of his crown. But with the honor in his grasp and Loughran fading before him in the third and fourth rounds, Pete found that he had wasted too much strength In hie rushing assault. Loughran came away with a streak of blood crowing his right eyebrow. With another round, Latzo 's vicious attack had opened a broad cut there and' blood streamed into the champion's eyes and down his face. Here the strength Latzo had been saving for just such a mo ment failed him. He allowed the title holder to steal the show with stabbing lefts as Tommy danced backward around the ring, eyes foggy, brain a bit numbed, but the instinct of a champion still controlling his fists. Befort Lat xo could gain control again the opportunity was lost and Pete's second chance of winning his sec ond crown went a glimmering. The crowd of approximately 15,000 paid 60,000 to see the show, one of the greatest gates in the history of this section of the country. Promoter Morgan Bird was reported to have paid Loughran 925,000 to defend the crown while Latzo received $7,500. Round One Latzo, robed in purple tights, rushed the champion to a neutral corner and flailed his stomach with short left hooks.- Tommy stepped out to rip his head back with a half dozen short right up percuts. Tommy jabbed prettily with his left, boxed cagily twice around the challenger and tied Pete up easily when the miner rushed him. Latzo bulled the champion to the ropes and dug his left deep into Tommy's body. Tom my held the challenger off easily with a 'snappy left jab up to the bell. Round Two Tommy's left pumped stead ily into Pete's face, until Latzo smashed a vicious right hook to the head. Tommy slashed and jabbed the challenger's head with his deadly left but Pete stuck his head in for more and crashed both hands to the champion's head. Blood trickled from Latzo's nose as Loughran planted careful lefts into the challenger's features.Lat zo drove a right through Tommy's guard and rocked him into the ropes with a volley of short hooks Round Three Vicious as a cat, Latzo clawed Into the champion bat could not get past Loughran's machinegun left hand. Tommy was cautious, drawing away most of the time, but a stream of lefts always trailed behind bim into Latzo's face. Pete bulled Loughran into the ropes again, the champion's weakest position and smashed lefts and rights into Tommy's head. Tommy rocked a bit but fought his way clear only to run into two resounding crashes to the pit of the stomach. Tommy was boxing carefully at the bell. Round Four Pete mauled the champion with a left and right to the head and Tommy rolled groggily into the ropes In a neutral corner. A crackling left hook opened a cut over Tommy's left eye. Pete dozed the champion with a left and right to the head on the ropes, but instead of ripping in to fol low up his advantage tried to box the champion in the center of the ring. A right sent Loughran fly ing; back to the ropes, blood streaming down his face. Careful ly Latzo followed him but Tommy blocked a dozen dangerous punch es. As they slugged in the center of the ring Loughran's knees bent under a crashing right to the chin but he held Latzo off until the bell. The fight was so fierce that secondary battles broke out among the partisans in the ring side seats. Round Five Latzo drilled three lefts to the body and chased Loughran about the ring. Tommy stabbed lefts, but he had lost his steam and seemed unable to hold the chal lenger off. Latzo rushed Lough ran to the ropes and pounded his body with both bands. Pete seemed tired and let the champion pot-shot with both ,hapds to the head and body. A sharp left drew more blood from Latzo's nose but he hammered back with a vicious body attack. Tommy called on the kidney punch that saved his last fight with Latzo and stung fete badly about the body up to the bell. Round Six Tommy's left was back in prime working order as Lfftzo bored into a storm of leather. As they slug ged in Latzo's corner Tommy's left fell low and Latzo complained to the referee. Pete tried to box the champion and got much the worst of a left hand Latzo turned and walked to a' neutral corner complaining when Tommy smashed another left into his body. The referee refused to allow his claim and brought them together again. Latzo was un steady as Tommy jabbed him about with a straight left. They were sparring at the bell. Round Seven Latzo, tired but game, smashed solid rights Into Loughran's head. The champion covered up at the ropes and Pete pounded him with both hands. A short left hook rut Loughran's right cheek but he shot Latzo's head back with a swishing right uppercut. Tommy danced away as Pete bored both hands at his body without a sin- (Continued on page 10) CK OSE ROBINS out n ei ST. LOUIS. July If. (AP).
