It was time 'or the Brooklyn pitcher to warm up. y'Can you work today?" Mr.

Vance was asked. The big blond straightened up and groaned. "I don't link so. This sciatica bothers me like the devil. But, e'il see." And, grunting like a rheumatic octogenarian, Mr.

Vance started for the great open spaces of the ball park. "Let me moved back and forth like a triumphant banshee in the ghostly dusk of Forest Hills tennis stadium last night as he defeated Clifford Sutter in their quarter-final match for the men national singles championship.

Vance, after several minutes of throwing the ball back nd forth, said that he guessed he start. The real fact of the matter is that he was afraid not to pitch against the Cubs. He didn't feel right, but people would talk if ne kept out of this important ieries. And well, the rest Is history. The big blond set a season record when he struck nut 13 of the Cubs.

Brooklyn won, 2 to 1, sweeping the three-game series with the league leaders as clean as a hound's tooth. Still practically tied with the St. Louis Cardinals, both St. Louis and Brooklyn are only half a game behind the Chicago crowd, which suffers from extreme anemia ef the base-hit column. Following the five-hit shutouts administered the Cardinals, Vance came up with third five-hit game.

Open Players From Three Nations in Makeup of Seven Squads because nobody else could hold up a national tournament for over an hour and get away with it. TILDEN ISSUES AN ULTIMATUM The Old Master broke out Into a perfect blaze of old-time form yesterday.

He disposed of Johnny Van Ryn handsomely after losing the first set. But he also had his annual row with the tournament committee, and thereby hangs a tale that overshadows all. Overshadows even the exciting match between Frank Shields and Gregory Mangin, in which Frank had to patch up his left big toe in the first set, having knocked the skin off it, while in the fifth, with only two games to go, Gregory leaped for a high one, fell on his and twisted his ankle. But of that more later. The row began when Tilden sought out Dr.

Philip B. Hawk, chairman of the tournament committee, a man who looks upon the world with coldly analytical eyes through big horned-rimmed spec FURNISH BIG DRAMA Mangln's match with Shields was the big drama of the day. Gregory pulled the teeth from Frank's hot service in the first set. He faltered, after leading 52, finally to pull the second out of the fire st 75. And then he himself lost all his teeth, as Shields came on, raising his game to a high peak.

In the first set Frank burst a blister on his left big toe. He paused to take off his shoe and sock and put adhesive tape on the injured member. "Didn't it bother you?" I asked him after he had won. "Gee, it hurt until I fixed it that time," he panted as he looked up, pulling a cigarette away from the lighted match and burning his fingers, "but when I went back to play I forgot all about it until you just spoke." Gregory's injury was more serious. Two games away from defeat In the fifth set, he leaped for a high return, lost his balance, fell on his head and twisted his ankle.

Bill O'Brien, Frank Hunter's trainer, reached him first: Ben Dwlght, the umpire, next. They rolled him over and O'Brien snipped the shoelaces, while Shields huddled Into his polo coat and then brought By N. B. BELTH By ARTHUR F. JONES Jr.

The leading polo players of three A tallyho ride on to Braves Field Rube" Bressler out of the lineup for the remainder of the season, is serious. LOSS OF BRESSLER MORE THAN SERIOUS "Hell, Old Rube Is thus known among the players because whenever an enemy fly ball sails out to left field, Mr. Wilbert Robinson relaxes on the bench and murmurs "Hell, old Rube will take care of that one." And when Bressler steps up to hit in the clutch, Mr. Robinson relaxes similarly and says "Hell, old Rube will bring them in." And that's the kind of a ball play nations have been assorted among seven teams that will make the American open championship one BOBINS AN EDGE Today the Robins stand out with chances that appear to be just a bit better than the other three contenders in this wild-eyed scramble for a loose pennant. Perhaps, it should be written "two other contenders," for the games the Giants have lost these last two days may be the practical ruination of the fourth-place men of Manhattan.

Why the Robins should have an edge has been amply demonstrated In the course of the club's current winning streak of seven straight. It is a two-syllable word of eight letters meaning the ability to make the enemy throw their bats away pitching. Even when troubled by tacles, and who has a jaw that er Bressler Is. steady, consistent. clamps tight.

He is prepared to sometimes spectacular. In spite of fight anything out on his own lines, his 36 years and his 18 seasons of the finest events of its kind. All four of the British players who put up such corking opposition in the recent big series will be seen in action, and the same is true of the four Americans who won the event, to say nothing of all the Yankee "spares" and Jack Nelson of the Argentine. All things considered, the tri-star Templcton outfit which meets Greentree in the opening game to tnougn it take a century ol sum in Boston last Monday came to a stop as Pat Daley drew in on the reins, and several dozen athletes, some gray-haired, some corpulent, some with creaking knees, all showing the signs of advancing years, but all dressed In baseball uniforms, came piling out. Baseball was on its sentimental journey.

Back in 1903 Boston won a pennant and Boston has not forgotten it. Pennant winners have been so few in Boston of late that Hub towners wanted another look at their champions of long ago. And so in the name of Charity that team was brought together again and against them were matched other old-timers ol other championship teams. What an opportunity for the Hot Stove Leaguers! There was Connie Mark's famous $100,000 infield around and about the major leagues mers. Rube is a swell man for your ball Bill announced that, as national his brown brushed wool sweater over to wrap around his opponent's shoulders.

Gregory got painfully to his feet at last, limping badly, while the crowd hurrahed like a football mob team in the heat of a tight pennant fight champion, he demanded the right to play In the stadium with no sideshow on the other court at the same time. Besides, he explained. It was The play in which he was Injured is typical.

CARENS DOESN'T KNOW unfair to Frank Hunter, who was on at 1:30 p.m., to be distracted by a gallery ol divided loyalties. It seems that nobody can concentrate on Johnny Doeg's tremendous service under such trying conditions. Of course Bill didn't point out that other players had had to concentrate on Johnny with plenty ol distracting circumstances all week long. But that is beside the point.

BALDING AT BACK The idea ol the open championship seems to be to produce teams of certain ratings, without regard to the normal positions of players. Sometimes men will elect to play positions unsuited to them.

George Carens, Irom Boston, was inclined to be skeptical ot what comes out ol New York teapots and pointed to Mangln's befuddled actions after he had taken a few sips, but Gregory had a lump on his forehead where he hit the sunbaked, drought-hardened turl, and we don't want any eyebrows from Boston raised over Mr.

"You've got to be watching all the time to get the jump when BROOKLYN ROOTERS, USE YOUR VOICES For years. It has been evident that Ebbets Field is woefully inadequate to the demands of the Brooklyn fans.
