FATAL JINX FOR
ATHLETIC STARS
XKW YORK," Aug.' I'll. M.mjlrchs
of aihleiU-s cumo ami git.
Certain limits to the Wmiupl'inship
span may he not oil In moat every
Inane)) of competition though the
sea roll fur them ulno reveals ninny a
startling exception, such as the long
regime of Willie Iloppc In hilliards,
of Jay Could In court tennis nnd the
marvelous endurance of such hase
hall stars as Ty t'olih ami Waller
Johnson, maintaining the peaks for
u score of years.
Perhaps the most astonishing ex
ception to the theory of championship
limitation is ihe case of John Hull,
Jr., who from 188S to 1922 captured
the Urltish golf title eight times.
Baseball provides a bundle of evi
dence for the belief that the average
champion's rule Is a short and merry
one. It has come to he something of
a tradition hi the national game that
no club can win more than four major
league pennants In n row. The ( hints,
setting a modern record and duplicat
ing a feat performed twice In the
old days, did it last season; They still
have a fighting chance to break the
jinx, but the odds tight now are
against Jlieivi. The dlsinte-'rallon of
the Yankees Is further proof that tin
championship pace has its limit. Km in
a pennant winning combination In
lltl'l. 1022 and 11)23 the clan slid hack
to second place last year and this sea
son Is in seventh place. Mc(i raw's
champions of 1!13 fell bark to second
place in 1914 and to last place In 1!H5.
Connie Mack's title-winning outfit of
1U14 was broken tip and dropped to
the cellar In one season. The old Bal
timore Orioles, Chicago Cubs, I'ltts
burgh I'lrates and Detroit Tigers
found It impossible to win more than
I lire) times in a row. 1
Another turn of the pages of sports
seems to show a mystic i-untity n the
number "seven." Jim Jeffries and
Jack Johnson held the heavyweight
boxing crown fur seven years, while
Jack Uempsey Is now in his seventh
year at rhc top. Bennie Ieonard re
tired after seven seasons as light
weight king. R. D. Sears, the first
recognized American tennis champion,
won the title 'seven years In a row.
William A. Lamed captured the same
crown seven times. The seven-year
span of 1K07 to 11H4 saw Australia
mainly at the top of Ihe tennis heap
in Uavis cup play.
The same Influence or coincidence
has been at work In the women's ten
nis division where Suzanne henglen,
barring nn exception or two due. more
or less to illness and temperament
than any lapse on )l:iylug supremacy,
has been ut the lop through seven
seasons, while Airs. Mollu .Mnllory was
(pieen of American courts seven times.
It Is unusual for It golf champion
to win twice in succession. No com
petitor has repeated in the American
open since 1012 or the amateur since
11113.
