CHICAGO, May 31.—The White Sox won an eleven-Inning contest from the Tigers here this afternoon 3 to 2. Tyrus Cobb, as usual, made good, not only on the bases, but In the field. In lhe sixth, the "peach" singled and went all the way to third on Vench’s little single to left. Cobb robbed the Sox of victory In the tenth when with Selder on second and Rath on first, both of whom had singled after two were out, he raced hack into deep right close to the foul line and speared Fournier's drive that looked to be a sure triple. Collins opened the eleventh for the Sox by doubling and was sacrificed to third by Shatter. Mat tick popped a fly to Bush and Collins scored the winning run on Weaver’s clean single through short. Zamboch, who pitched for Detroit, granted eleven hits, and White, his opponent, nine. The box score: Chicago. ab. r. h. po. a. e.

VIRGIL GARVIN TAUGHT FALKENBERG FADEAWAY CLEVELAND, O., May 31.—There is no doubt - of Falkenberg owning the best fadeaway'-delivery in *fie American League. In fact there is a question of Mathewson having th*> fadeaway mastered better than Falk- enberg. There • are no others in a class with these two when it comes to this particular brand of deceivers. Fred was taught the famous fadeaway by a rival -pitcher—Virgil Garvin, the famous “Navascta Tarantulawh > was once a member of the Brooklvn club at the time Falkeriberg was with the Pirates. Griffith Declares War on Ban Johnson National’s Manager Says He Wants No More to Do With “That Fellow.” WASHINGTON, May 31.—‘Tm through with Ban Johnson. He may know how to run the league, but he xv Ill never cut in on the Washington club as long as I am manager. If there is any more correspondence be tween Chicago and Washington It will have to come from some one else, for 1 will have nothing moTe to do with that fellow.” With these words Clark Griffith last night gave notice of an open breach between himself and the president of the American Leagne. It has -been known for some'time that the rela tions between -Johnson and tfre man ager were none too pleasant, "but w r hen word was received in Boston from "Washington that Johnson had notified President Ben Minor, of the Nationals, of the reinstatement of Nick Altrock, Griffith went on record frt regard to~an‘absolute Tuptdre' with Johnson. Three times the chief of the Na tionals asked Johnson to explain on what grounds Altrock was barred, and the manager expected-* that he would receive a direct answer from the executive. * u He-has tried to butt in on us be fore. but from now on you can take it from me he can go his wav and we will go ours/’ -continued Griffith. -"l am trying to give Washington a win ning'ban club, and* if Johnson thinks that such petty stuff as he has -been pulling can humiliate me *he is away off his base. 1 have stood- for quite a little of this small stuff before, but from now t>n~be and I are not going to have any relations whatso ever. That's all, and it*s flnah 4 ** CINCINNATI TO ENTER BALLOON IN BIG RACE KANSAS CITY, MO., May 31.— George M. Meyers. President of the Kansas City Aero Club, armoxinced yesterday that the ‘Cincinnati Aero Club, recently organized, would enter i a balloon for the national elimination ‘race-which will start from here July Dr. E. L. Custer, of Dayton. Ohio, will be one of-4he contesting pilots, and Captain G. L. Bumbaugh. of lr»- I than a polio will bring <>n£ -or-two bags I here to be entered in the race. Youthful Due and Hackett and Little in Play in Cup Chal lenge Games. N EW YORK, May 31.—Another thrilling and interesting chap ter will doubtless be added to the history of American lawn tennis when America met6 Australasia In the preliminary tie for the Davis Cup within a few days.. The clash of racquets will take place on the courts of the West Side Tennis Club, and, regardless of the outcome, there will be some rare exhibitions of the game. Those who are hypercritically in clined have figured out that we will win the singles and that the Austra lasians will be consoled with a brack et in the doubles. It is within the bounds of possibility that the whole thing may result the other way around. America will be represented by Maurice E. McLoughlin. Richard Nor ris Williams, Harold H. Hackett and Raymond D. Little, while the hopes of the Southern Cross will rest on Stanley Norwood Dous't, Horace O. Rice and A. B. Jones. Evidently it will be young Amerjca against. Australasia, for Mcloughlln is a year younger. Last y-ear the pair were Nos. 1 and 2 in the singles rating, a piece of calculation which nobody questioned. McLoughlin Old in Game. Though young in years, McLoughlin is old enough in the battle for the Davis cup. Already he has been twice to Australia in quest of the mug. The last time the titian-haired Californian figured in the fray was at Christ Church, New Zealand, and the match he played in singles against Norman E. Brooks, regarded as the greatest of tennis players, will stand out for all time in the annals of the Davis eup. — . At one stage of the game McLough lin had the left-handed wonder in the rear by two -sets to one, and when it was> sets all, the American boy led for the deciding game, but he lacked the steadiness at the crucial moment, and Brooks just scatched out a victory. As he squares off on. the court the California boy is a quiet, unassuming fellow, and immediately the audience fs with him. A pleasant player to look- at, but it Is the case of a lion working in the fleecy skin of a lamb. With h4. c * terriflo smash overhead, his wonderful twist . service, his chop strokes and his fierce aggrossivene&s in volleying close to the net, the boy from.the Pacific coast to-day is the embodiment of wlmt might he regard ed as the newest science of. tennis.

Williams was the sensation of the 1912 season, and ran McLoughlin hard for first place. He was born at Gene va, Switzerland, and for a time there was some question about his eligi- bility-as an American. But the United States* National Lawn Tennis Asso ciation decided that as long as he was the son. of an American parent he was entitled to take part in the Davis cup battle. Williams is a Har vard University man. Williams learned tennis at the Cha teau D’Oeux and other Swiss resorts. During the seasons of 1906 and 1909 he virited California and saw a lot of the tennis methods used by the men from the Pacific coast. There he learned his screw service and the chop stroke, of which, he. is not a very bright exponent.

Dust L> a champion sprinter and a stayer. Willie Ritchie, world's lightweight champion, will defend his title on Julj/ //. In the following article, writ ten especially for the Sunday Ameri can, In' tells just what he will do be tween now and the time of the fight. By AVillie Ritchie. T RAINING for a contest is a very important matter. I have learn ed that condition is half a bat tle. Therefore, one cannot give this subject any too much consideration. For a championship contest, at least six weeks is needed to perfect one’s wind. July 4 will be the date of my next contest. Beginning in Seattle, 1 will take my road runs regularly every morning. In the afternoons and evenings, at the theater, I will get all the gymnastic work necessary in doing my turn on the stage, which consists of boxing and other gymna sium work. Keeping regular hours, doing your routine work regularly, is one of the ‘•trlctest rules of my manager, Billy Nolan, who is a past master in the conditioning of athletes. Never can I forget the superb condition he land ed me in the ring when Wolgast lost his title on Thanksgiving Day. • * * VIOLAN is a crank on training, and ' watches and times every move you make from the time you get up until bedtime. Regularity is hie mot to. Food is an important element in a training camp. No greasy or high ly seasoned foods are permitted. Cakes, pastry or fried meats and fresh bread or biscuits are barred during training periods. So from now on my next three weeks on the road will be in strict training. After my week in Portland, or which ends June 2, I will lose no time getting to California, where we will go up in the mountains of Lake County, to my manager’s ranch. My sleeping is done out in the open air; my companions are the saddle horse and hunting dog. This is the one place to rest, and for two tveeks it will be rest, while L will have plenty of exercise, it will be so different from the kind I have had to go through for the last seven months. Everything is different—the foods of the coarsest variety. Practically everything that is eaten comes off the 1,200-acre ranch. * * * TNURING my stay all of the meat ^ and fish that I eat will be of the game variety, as it is no particular effort for me to catch a mess of trout any time or shoot game or birds on the ranch, where Nolan maintains a preserve. My greatest benefits are derived from being in the open air at all times. Think of it—sleeping, eating and being in the open air ail hours of the day. If necessity demands weight re ducing, the greatest weight-reducing exercise and appliances in the world are on the farm. A large hay barn, capable of holding several tons of loose hay, and a couple of good forks comprise the paraphernalia necessa ry in this rural gymnasium. Once you take your stand in the center of the hay that is being forked to you, perspiration will come from every pour of your body. I have tried it, and no Turkish bath produces quick er or better reults. June is the month that the stock barns must be filled. If you want the sweat, you know the place to get it. I am counting the idays that will land me in Lake County. This is where my heavy and actual training took place for my championship bat tle with Wolgast. Just a few weeks there will enable me to be in the best possible shape for my next bat tle, on July 4. BOSTON MAY BUILD YACHT TO DEFEND AMERICA’S CUP BOSTON, May 31.—Rear Commo dore Charles H. W.
