THEN WINS DOUBLES Quaker City Tennis Star Tri umphs Over Veteran Straight Sets.

in (Special to The Eagle. 1 Southampton, L. August 24 William T. Tilden, I'd, the Philadelphia tennis expert, who holds the na-tonal doubles championship, together with Vincent Richards, the Yonkers school boy, won additional honors here today when he defeated Theodore Iloosevo't Pell, the veteran, in final romd orthe annual invitation tennis tournament of the Meadow Club. The Quaker City player was the master of the New Yorker throughout, winning at 6 4, 2 and 6 4.

Tilden's victory was more or less expected by the fashionable gallery that witnessed the match. The dash-ins game of the l'hiladelphian held Pell safe throughout. At no time was the winner realy forced to exert himself. He seemed to be contented to let Pell set the pace, and then, meeting stroke for stroke, let the latter beat himself through errors, outs and nets. The veteran, while ho did well at the begnning of the match, could not stand up under the strain.

In the first set he held his won, having file score 31 in his favor and later 4 2. It was then that the youth of the Quaker City expert began to tell. Working his hard service to the limit, Tilden brought the score to 4-all in the eighth game and then ran off the remaining two games for the match. Xintli (ianio Hard Fought. The ninth game in particular was bitterly fought and only won at 10-8 on Tilden's service.

The first set was not particularly good tennis. Tilden made fifteen nets and sixteen outs. Pell did not do much better. He had fourteen nets and seventeen outs. The service of the former was fairly satisfactory.

Although he made one double fault, he won Ihree points on Service aces. Pell made no faults nnd never did he serve an ace. On placement shots. Tilden scored 14 points, while Pell mistered only placement points in tile set. Tilden's superiority was marked al the start of the second set.

The clever, hard driving game that had given tin- Philadelphia the final four of the first set, was continued in tile second set and he ran three ames straight before Pell was able to register a game. The run was sevc games in a row. Pell, who favors a back handed game, could not manage the stitf drives the sent over the net. Both hugged the hack court, but when Tilden did come in on the net, he took his time and drove home his point in perfect fashion. Carelessness Lost i'op Tilden.

The two games that Tilden lost in the second set were both the result of careless playing. The first was on Pell's service and the second, which was the seventh game, was on his own service. Both games were at 4 1 points. Tilden was almost as wild in the second as he was in the first set. He made 14 nets and 5 outs, against b' nets and 7 outs registered by his opponent.

Tilden's placement game was decidedly better, he scoring 12 points on placement shots against 5 placement points made by Pell. With the exception of the second game there was little real fighting. In the third set Tilden moved along fairly well, and although he was wild on his outs, his placements were satisfactory. He won .17 points on placement shots. His outs were 20 and his nets 6.

Pell made 12 outs, 12 nets and 1 double fault. The winning of a leg on the big Challenge Bowl of the Meadow Club was not the only victory scored by Tilden today. This afternoon, to-gether with his partner, Vincent Richards, the l'hiladelphian won the 'doubles tournament, defeating Walter Hayes and Ralph H. Hurdick, the doubles champions of the Middle West, in an exceptionally interesting brilliantly played match. The score was 6 4, 4 6, 6 3, 5 7 and 64.

Champions Were Favorites. Being the national champions, Tilden and Richards naturally were the favorites. Although they started well, -Richards blew up in the second set, tallowing the Chicago team to score several easy games. The lobs of the Yonkers, lad were not executed as cleverly as in the past and that permitted either Hayes or Burdick to come in on the net successfully. The Chicago team might have done better if Burdick had not lost his head, after missing a little pop that Richards managed to put over the net.

The loss of the stroke caused Burdick to go sailing up in the air and he did not settle down until the third set had gone to the champions. Throughout there was plenty of exciting tennis. Tilden did most of the hard playing for the winners and his drives and smashes continually won applause. Richards was fairly steady and when his lobs were in working order he kept his opponents on the jump. Hayes did the best work for the defeated team.

Although not as spectacular a player as his partner, the taller Chicago expert was surer on his strokes and at times "killed" with, almost as deadly skill as Burdick, In the finals of the mixed doubles E. H. Binzen and Miss Trevor defeated E. H. Hendricksen and Mrs, H.

The 'largest truck train movement yet undertaken by Uncle Sam recently reached a successful ending at Camp Jesup, Georgia, when ninety 3-ton' Packard trucks completed a 981-mile; 'cross-country Journey, from Not only was the trip remarkable on account of the distance and the length; of the train, but much of the country) traversed was unsuited to such heavy'? traffic, and the soldier-drivers had to strengthen and rebuild dozens of; bridges along tho route. At Guntersvllle. where the swollen Tennessee River had to be: crossed, only a one-man ferry, capa ble of carrying a single truck, was available. This diminutive transports required two hours for each round trip, and would have necessitated ai week's nlght-and-day effffort to put tho train on tho far bank. So, moving1 down the river, a railroad ferry, accommodating eighteen trucks, was commandeered, and after a suitable approach was built, the long caravan put the stream behind It In little more than a day's time.

Despite many such difficulties, the trucks rolled Into Camp Jesup seven-ton days after leaving the Packard factory, every truck in fighting trim. The train was in charge of Captain O. P. Hlppeo, Lieutenant L. A.

Couch and C. O. Middlebrook. Captain II. Andrews also accompanied the trail as a special convoy officer.

The truckt were manned by 200 picked soldier-mechanics from Mechanical Unit No 806. Camp was made each night, at suitable place along the line of march.

Already Practicing Each Day at Annapolis.

(Special to The Eagle.) Annapolis, Md August 24 From six to eight complete teams engaging in a fast and accurate signal praotlce is the somewhat out-of-the-ordinary sight for the height of summer which has been on view at the Naval Academy any afternoon during the past ten days. Coach Doble Is a great believer In drilling his charges in the main Ideas of the game, and thinks that he can get results much better by having the men do the things which they must do and do right when actually in matches, than by spending so much time on what are generally tormed the fundamentals. Consequently, he schools his men in handling the ball, in quick starting and in speed, and Incidentally secures their gradual physical development by having them actually go through plays Just as soon as he can. The unusually cool weather has been greatly to the interest of the squad, and it has been possible to give the 126 candidates much more work and maintain a much faster pace than ever before at this time. This squad, entirely from the new fourth class, containing nearly 1.000 members, Is increasing every day, as players leave other branches of athletics, No Favorites On Team.

Most of them, will not be able to make a place on the big squad, but Dobie is holding it before them all as a possibility, and it is certain that they will be placed with the main squad, and even win places on the team, if they show the ability there will be no favorites. Even now there are indications of several of the youngsters who may move into the fastest company. Not every team Is fortunate In having a fully-organized coaching staff at this time, but that is what tile Academy has. Of course, Gllmour Doble Is the commander-in-chief, but he has been able to pick several capable aids. For Instance, there is Assistant Surgeon Boles A.

Rosenthal, medical officer attached to the department of physical training. He played center at the University of Minnesota, where Dobie started as a coach, and was the recognized All -Western center for several years. Then there is Raymond Hunt, a P.eserve officer, who is undergoing a special course here and who was developed by Dobie at the University of -Washington, and who is said by Dobie to be as fine an end as ever played. Then there is Commander Bovnton, an old Academy player, and Henry Goddard of the department of physical training. All have proved most useful during the practice period.

MOSES WINS GREAT UPHILL NET MATCH Defeats Wall for the Tennis Title of the Crescent A. C. After battling his way to within apparently an easy triumph, Robert G. Wall was finally beaten by Alfred L. Moses after a great tennis match of five sets in the final round in the singles of the club championship, at the Crescent Athletic Club, yesterday, on its grass courts at Bay Ridge.

The scores were 3 6, 46, 6 4, 8 6 and 61. Having won the first two sets in decisive fashion and with the score at 4-all toward the end of the third set, Wall had but to take the next two games to become the ranking tennis player of the club. But these two games stood between Wall and the title like a wall, insurmountable. Moses rallied gamely, took the two games and the set. With the encouragement derived from the belated success, Moses took hope and be-gn a seemingly altogether one-sided tussle.

Moses' Play Sensational. Moses' remarkable fighting against the tremendous moral and physical odds hardly fell short of the sensational. Except for occasional erratic playing, which at times threatened to wreck his chances, Moses steadied his game, as play went on. Wall tired rapidly from the gruelling play. After the fourth set, which Moses won in fourteen strenuous games, which repeatedly went to deuce, Wall's reserve power failed him entirely.

As he saw his chances go a-glimmerlng in the final set, he In turn became reckless and careless In his returns. This enabled Moses to win without much effort in the last by 61. Saratoga Entries. Saratoga SpriniTB, N. August 24 The entries for Monday races follow: First race.

The Pclham Naval Reserves and the Fort Slocum team each defeated the Brooklyn team twice, while the New York Athletic Cluh caused the other downfall. The success of the team was largely due to the good managerial ability of Edward W. Ditmars who had been piloting the Crescent nines to victory for several years.

He worked well with Cuyler Heath, captain of this year's nine, and the two effected that co-operation and good fellowship nmnrn- ths nlmrnfu 'Viiph la thA essen. Shaw Leads Crescent Field. Earle T. Shaw, runner-up in the recent club golf championship, took a pot shot, at the club handicapper yesterday by beating tho field both ways in the meda lhandicap on the links of the Crescent Athletic Club, Bay Ridge. He was the only one to get under 80, his 7 6 being live strokes better than the score of F.

C. Denning, the 1917 runner-up in the club championship. His handicap of 4 made his 72 also the best net. Shaw's golf was steady rather than brilliant, although there were several places in tho round where his approaching work demonstrated why he got into the final for the local title. His average of only four over 4s for the eighteen holes indicated whut Champion Calder had to do to issue victor and take the title which Phil Thiel won last year.

Tho following are yesterday's scores; DEAD HEAT AMONG HARNESS FEATURES Ethel B. and Kinney McGregor i Finish Together at Parkway, Other Events. A dead heat between Ethel and Kinney McGregor featured the mat- Inee of the Nassau Driving Club yesterday at the Parkway Track. The pair raced neck and neck for the last eighth and the best that the judgcj could decide was "no contest." Tho two came under tho wire in 2:17 Vi. Ethel won the face.

NONPAREIL CREW HAS CLOSE SHAYE Rammed by Pleasure Craft It Wins Centipede Race at N. Y. A. C. Carnival.

Oarsmen of the Nonpareil Rowing Club secured a brace of victories in the mixed water carnival of rowing and syimming races hold at Travers Island hy the New York A. C. yesterday. The Harlem River men got a score before they scored the double win when a pleasure craft blocked their path in the final fifty yards of the Centipede race. Brisland, the bow of the Nons, had one of his oars broken, but they quickly righted the shell and won by three-quarters of a length.

The shell had shipped considerable water. The Harlem River boys also won the pair oared gig race. The sailors from Pelham Bay captured the ten oared cutter race from Federal Rendezvous by a scant length. The Pelham boys got off well but were pressed very hard by the Feds for the first mile. In the final quarter the Pclham crew had more reserve power and drew away.

James Agromenti, also of the Pelham Bay Training Station, was tha winner in the 220-yard handicap swim. John J. Curran of the Federal Rendezvous finished but was disqualified for not touching the finish line. T. Iteilly of the Federal Rendezvous finished third and was also disqualified for leaving his mark two seconds before time.

The car was taken to one of the dependable repair men of Brooklyn. The ignition trouble was confirmed by his examination and he advised that it he repaired by someone familiar with the electrical end of the car, using extreme caution in that selection. This is written to pass that warning on to others whose cars may be equipped with Doleo systems. I went, to what seemed a reliable concern, but learned they are camouflaging tinder the iJelco name.
