Tilden, II, national singles tennis champion, announced today that he was considering offers from two motion picture producing companies and that he would sign a contract with one or more within the next six weeks. Tilden said should he sign the motion picture contract, it would mean that tennis would become a secondary consideration with him in the future. William M. Johnston of San Francisco, former national champion, disposed of R. E. Schlesinger of the Australian Davis cup team in straight sets: 6-3, 6-2, 6-3. Schlesinger's service bothered Johnston some but at base in work the American was much better. Schlesinger also spoiled innominate chances to some extent by the commission of several double service faults. Deat Mathey, New York, defensel I. E. Kalins, San Francisco, 6-4, 3-6, 3-6, 3-6. Wray D. Brown, St. Louis defeated S. Howard Voshell, New York, 6-3, 6-3, 6-2. Third round: Rene LaCeste, France defeated Caldwell, Atlanta, 6-4, 6-3, 6-1.

SPORT SNAP SHOTS BY JACK KEENE There is little gloom about the offices of the American league moguls these days. The reason is that the cooffers of practically every club in the circuit are about ready to burst. And what a jolly little melon will be cut at least six of the cities next month. Of course the Yankee and Tiger-bombs smile the broadest. Babe Ruth and the probability that they would cop their fourth straight pennant have made the Hugmen a big drawing card at home and abroad. The road money is not to be sneezed at when it is a split on crowds of from 10,000 to 17,000 on weekdays quite frequently and around 20,000 on Sundays and holidays. The Yankees have played before huge crowds all season at home and abroad. The prospects the Tigers seemed to have last spring of making a fight for the flag caused them to draw big crowds early in the season. Came a brief slump and then the spectacular pitching of Earl Whitehill and Edwin Wells not only put them back in the pennant fight but added interest to the club generally and the Detroit owners began backing up an extra bank truck to the home office nightly when the Tigers were home. On the road the club found a neat pile left after the ham and bills of the players had been paid. The popularity of the Tigers and the big bat of Babe Ruth while the Junglemen and New Yorkers were on the road swelled the gate receipts of the weaker clubs. Cleveland made a bid for "contender" honors for a time and the fans have backed the team all season in a loyal fashion. Boston got away to a whale of a start and Pohl's popularity and the showing of the team made the turnstiles click merrily for many weeks. The gate receipts have fallen off of late but soar occasionally when the Yanks or Tigers blow in. Even Connie Mack can't complain. The Philadelphia fans turned out profusely to see the long gent's new hopefuls in action and to pan or pat them, as was becoming. Eventually the panning predominated. However, the showing of Al Simmons has not proved a disappointment entirely and the hope that the team would come to life at intervals and check the Yanks or plunging Tigers has drawn quite a handful of fans out of late. The attendance in the Quaker City early in the season was the best it has been since Connie began rebuilding his team. Griffith's move in making Stanley Harris manager made a hit with the followers of the Washington team. Harris success in molding into form what is now the best pitching staff in the American league made a bigger hit. Old Walter Johnson came through in brilliant form right off the bat and his spectacular pitching all season has added many more thousands of dollars to the club's bank roll. Oddly enough the failure of Frank Chance to lead the Chicago team did not detract much from the interest the fans displayed early in that outfit. Many had wanted Johnny Evers to get another crack at the job. When he was made manager pro tem there was no ill feeling. Those fans who hankered to see Eddies Collins manager came out to see Eydrs foosele the job. The St. Louis fans have supported the Browns all season partly out of loyalty to George Sisler, idol of the town and team. All in all it has been a gain year for the American league moguls.

They will try to out-guess, think, out-last, overpower and induce each other by scientific methods. Their battle will be entrainment for several hundred cookers. Their match will be filling and wonderful, wonderin that the human body can trained to act with the mind to reach perfection. If Roy is the victor, he will be accomplished a near miracle, cause a man of his age, who has been in constant training, is considered to have fallen a victim case and his taucles will not bond to the strain as the anger man. If Miller Again deeds Mabee he will have proven greatness, as Roy Mabee news most of the tricks of the which makes wrestling an art and science. It will be a demonstration, no matter which wins, that is wonless. Both men are far above ordinary man, in the art of protection. Their physical properties will show years of culinary standing the strain of the foul. If Mabee deeds Miller is still one of the greatest men the world of his weight. If her defeats Roy he bids fair to come the greatest man of his light in the world. Polks, it is hard to realize just good these men are. It took Santel, champion of the world, hour and 30 minutes to throw three and well past the hour to New Miller and Miller is a much newer man now than when she called Santel. Manager Jaffray thinks that he is very excellent boxing pro arranged to precede the battling match. He has important talent and expects to give fans three good bouts. It's going to be a real show; come and avoid the rush. 225 CHINESE WILL STUDY IN AMERICA SEATTLE Aug. 27—Designed to enter universities in every section of the United States, 225 Chinese students will arrive in Seattle Sept. 7, aboard the Admiral-Oriental liner President Jefferson, it was learned today. The Chinese expenses are paid under the provisions of the "boxer indemnity treaty." Most of the students are graduates of the colleges at Peking. base and Manager Krug might have been higher up in the win column if he had kept the younger playing instead of farming him out. The Liberty Magazine, just out, carries an interesting story of the Dempsey-Firpo battle as seen and felt by the champ himself. Jack gives stage fright as the reason of the first round's near catastrophe. He claims it was the first fight that he ever entered where he was the favorite, where he was cheered. He entered the ring expecting to be razzed and the ovation he received made him forget all his plans and he did just the things that he had planned not to do. He claims that after the first blow he remembers very little of the fight and that as a dream. He says that the pictures were as interesting to him as to anyone else because they were news to him. He claims that he was brok back to earth in the rest between the first and second rounds and proceeded to do the things that he had planned all the time. Plain Dealer Classified Ads provide results.

Washington, it is reported, may play Notre Dame in the Tournament of Roses game at Pasadena on New Year's. Stanford has been offered the Pasadena lift but has not accepted. Last year Washington played a tie with the Navy eleven in the Rose bowl. The Huskies will have a good team this fall, as many veterans from 1923 are back in harness. Washington has the greatest potential power of any coast outfit last season but the northerners fluvier under attack. The Huskies showed little team work and poor judgment in tight places. White actually more powerful than the University of California eleven, the Huskie collapsed before the Deats and were defended 9 to 0. Washington does not play U.S.C. or Stanford this year. Both of the California schools will have great elevens this fall and if Coach Bagshaw is able to get what he should out of his material clashes with Stanford and the Trojans would have resulted in games worth going many miles to see. Bagshaw will probably be more WEATHER IDEAS TENNIS TOUR FOREST HILLS, N.Y., 27—With completion of second round matches, an annual tournament for singles championship was on the courts of The W tennis club here this afternoon.

PLAIN DEaler Golf School By A. D. WALKER, Professional at Anaheim Public Golf Course LESSON No. 2 Addressing the Ball (Putting one's self in position to strike the ball) When addressing the ball with the wooden club off the tee, spread your feet apart from 22 to 26 inches, ranging in measure according to the build of the player, noting whether you are tall, medium height, or heavy set. If am taking it for granted the clubs you have are proper size suitable to your build. I am safe in telling you that nine out of ten are not clubs adaptable to your form and style of executing an accurate and true stroke. If a professional is interested enough in conscientiously giving you reliable and constructive fundamentals in his teaching, it is his duty to give you a set of clubs that fit your build. This is half of the battle in playing golf. Address the ball not nearer than six inches off the left foot or in some cases between the two feet, allowing your left arm to be straight and reach out from the body. Lead your club head from the ball on the upward swing as close to the ground as possible before bringing the club head to the top of the swing. Stop the club head at the top of the swing by allowing your left wrist to hinge and do so without bending the left elbow. Bring the club head back with the left arm until 20 inches from the ball, then allow your left wrist to again hinge, which will allow you to whip through the ball with your right arm and shoulder. Never start the club head back from the top of the swing with the right arm; the reason is simple: Your left arm being nearest your body when you start to swing; your left arm must be down as near as possible to the ball (20 inches) before whipping in with the right.
