Sept. 5 The Americans won both siniTtl matches today from the Australian challengers and so cinchej fhe Davis cup series.

The final score and matches follow, i American Australia 1. After "Little Bill' Johnston had assured American victory beating Gerald L. ratterson in straight sets, 6-2, 6-2, 6-1, the thrill of the series came when James O. Anderson, the lanky had Tilden two sets to one, and all but beat the American champion, The Cats scored first. In the second Kraft doubled, took third on Phelan's infield out and counted on a double steal with Tarener who had walked.

Shreveport' representatives in th Texss league will return tomorrow to wind up an uneventful season from th local point of view. Starting well on the final extenuated road trip, the Gassers have com to the customary conclusion, drawing a blank in the series at Fort Worth. Th homecoming of the Gassers fail to create undue excitement. What interest there may have existed has not been fanned into an all-consiuning baseball fever, thank to th ttigma which th present owner of the Shreveport club hve placed upon the city. Shreveport is the best ball town of its size in the country.

This is not only gleaned readily from th attendance record at local games, but is common knowledge among baseball magnate throughout the country. The. 1922 fiaico muat be charged entirely to the directing power of the Shreveport baseball club' affairs. During the spring training season, it teemed that Shreveport was to be represented by a real fighting team which would be one-two-three in the standing at the close of the season. Then came injuries.

The pitching staff had been much overrated. The team went to piece. Jack Vann succeeded Billy Smith as manager with the team hopelessly lodged in last place during the first section of the race, tittle effort was made to bolster the faltering team. Force of Habit The team took new life under heavy handicaps, has proved himself a good leader. He has not had a real opportunity to show his full capacity as a manager, for he has been given little or no assistance from the business section ab.

A standard. Continued injuries and illness of players forced frequent make-shift line-ups. There was no reserve material. Many a game might have been pulled out of the fire if Vann havd had a tingle reliable pinch hitter. No matter, whether the investment of the pre-season proved flivvers, something should have first division at least.

Economy in baseball frequently been thit day and time are avid readers of baseball news. When they read that other clubs are making an effort to strengthen thejr waning teams and the home team goes along unbolstered it is only natural that they should begin to economize, saving money which they might spend for attending ball games. The Shreveport baseball fan bows to none in gameness. He wants to see a fighting team, headed by fighting magnates. To seek transfer therefore of the Wichita Falls series to the Texas town is nothing short of an insult to every baseball fan of Shreveport.

The1 transfer would have given Wichita Falls a decided advantage. Shreveport is a pretty weak road aggregation. Wichita Falls is super-confident on its home grounds. The interest of good sportsmanship demanded that the proposal be rejected. That is what the majority of the Texas league magnates did.

They are to be commended as much as the spirits guiding the local baseball affairs are to be condemned. Every baseball fan is looking forward, not to the series with the Spudders, but beyond this year to 1923 when a new ownership will take charjre of the baseball club of Vann leadership.

5. Putting- hi" opponent through an uphill fight, Bobby Jones, of Atlanta, defeated J. J. Beadle, of Philadelphia, three and one In the first round of the national amateur championship at the Brookline Country club today. Beadle, a player of whom little was known outMda of Philadelphia district, put up a strenuous -battle, but Jones had too many shots for him.

When the first half of the Sf nols match was completed, most favorites had completed surprising leads over their opponents. The only two approximately close matches of the day were thost of Jones and Beadle and Chick Evan of Chicago and John Q. Anderson, of Biwanoy. Evans BatUa Anderson Evans defeated Anderson two and one. Anderaon wis four down with tour to play, but wen the fifteenth and sixteenth holes.

The pair halved the seventeenth, Evans taking the match. The only really exciting finish came at the very end when Rudolph Knepper. of Sioux City and Princeton, the trans-Mississippi and Iowa champion, beat W. B. Torrance, of Scotland, member of the British team, for the international match, 2 up, ibefore a thousand spectators drawn from the remnants) of the galleries.

On the first round Knepper finished 6 down and It looked very much as if the Scot had htm started down the toboggan. "Ruddy" acquired much strengthening nourishment at luncheon, however, so that he turned the tables completely at the start of the second round and not a holo did he win until the 14th. although five were halved on the outward Journey. Knepper was one down going to the sixteenth hole, but he stole a birdie 2 there which left the match level. Then he gobbled a birdie at the 17th and was one up.

Driving to the home hole Torrance got among big trees to the right of the green, while Knepper was well on from the tee. Torrance readied the green on his next, but on such disadvantageous terms that he did not attempt to hole out. on this card for the first round several hole were approximated.

Another Close Battle. Still another close battle was that. of George Aulbsch, who eliminated Parker Schofield, by two and on. Ouimet would not be denied in extinguishing Colin Arlmer, of Englsnd, an often brilliant, yet more erratic member of the British team.
