With two more runs, Babe Ruth, the swat sultan of the New York Yankees, made a new world's major league record yesterday when he ran his season's total up to 31. Plucky little Dicky Kerr, taking the chance that few pitchers are taking these days, grooved a couple for the Babe and he passed his 1919 record of 29. Beyond all doubt the mark made yesterday is a major league record of all time, but the Babe has yet to equal the mark of 45 made by Perry Werden of the Minneapolis Western league club in 1905. Other minor league marks, generally unconsidered, which the Bambino has not shot at include E. E.

Calvert, Muskogee, who made 43 homers in 1917. Frank Roth. Evansville. Central league club, who made 36 in 1901; Beese. Mc-Alester, Western Association club made 34 in 1913, and Bunny Brief who made the same number in 1916 while playing with the Salt Lake City club in the Pacific coast league.

Ping Bodie's record of 30 homers, made In 1910, when he was playing centerfield for the San Francisco club in the Pacific Coast league, was passed by Ruth yesterday. The pair off Kerr yesterday made It 14 out of his 31 off. a southpaw pitcher, usually considered an enigma to a left--handed hitter. It also was the third homer Kerr has contributed to the Babe's -record. Pennock of the Red Sox has also donated three to Ruth, and Lefty Williams and Dauss have been hit for a pair.

Other pitchers including the Desi tne league, who have been hammered for a lone one by the Babe, are: Jones, Karr, Bush of the Red Sox, Wilkinson and Faber of the White So. Weilman. Shocker and Burwell of the Browns; Leonard, Oldham and Ehmke of the Tigers; Johnson, Carlson and Snyder of Washington; Meyers of Cleveland, and Bigbee, and Perry of the Athletics. Tilden's Prize Tall Philadelphian Now Ranked as Greatest Living Tennis Player His Sensational Victory Over Patterson. (By Jack Veiock, International News Sporting Editor.) New York, July 20.

The success of the American Davis cup team members in the London and Wimbledon esPfciaUy that of William T. THden 2d. the tall Philadelphia star, was highly gratifjSng to devotees of ZS? Fame on thls slde of the water. showing in winning the British singles title from Gerald Patterson, a feat that gives the Philadelphia player leeway to-lay claim to' the world's singles championship if he desires, was inspiring. The American national indoor singles champion was never in such fine fettle as he is this season, and it goes without saying that he will be a prime favorite to wrest the national singles title from William M.

Johnston and a classic field ot opponents when the annual tournament is held at Forest Hills in the fall. The superb game played by Tilden was altogether impressive. Nothing approaching it was ever witnessed before on English courts, according to British experts themselves, -'many of whom have "covered" all the important tennis events on the other side of the pond for adecade or more Tilden is a player of unusual'ability. He is a finished star in every department of the game, but his forte is his great speed both in service and returns. Several great matches in which he has participated in the past were recalled as a result of his recent victory over Patterson.

Game to the Core. In the 1918 Nationals Tilden was defeated in the finals by R. L. Murray of Niagara Falls. The Philadelphian played throughout the last three days of that tournament with a leg so badly infected that he was forced to go to a hospital after the tourney was completed.

Yet those who saw him will never forget the wonderful grit and really magnificent tennis he displayed in his efforts to stave off the inevitable. Another match was in the Nationals last August, when he lost the final round to William M. Johnston, after conquering R. Norris Williams, 2d, Norman E. Brookes, the veteran Australian, and Ichiya Kumagae, the Japanese star, before taking on Johnston.

An interesting fact in connection with Tilden's career is that, although he has been playing tennis ever since he was able to wield a racket, it was only about three years ago that he gained any real prominence. That year he was eliminated by R. L. Murray in one of the early rounds, though he gave the veteran Californian a terrific battle. The year 1918 was Tilden's banner year.

He went through 11 tournaments that season without tasting defeat and set a record unequaled in American tennis An indication of how good Tilden really is may be had 'from a nAn.AMfr moHn bv Vnrnian Tvyw1tab met defeat at the hand, of I the Quaker star, said Brookes: "It is my honest opinion that Tilden is the greatest tennis player ever born, and he will grow better with more ex- perience." i Tilden America! by the way, is the first American who has ever won the much- coveted championship at WimbJedor. and the victory carries exceptiona: significance this year because the fielo at Wimbledon was a field made up ot the world's best playeiaj representing every nation that has developed tennis to a fine degree. Tilden is six feet one Inch tall and weighs 160 pounds. He is 27 years old, having been born at Germantown, February 10. 1893.

July 20. wireless Resolute and Shaparock iy rode lazily at anchor in Horseshoe cove this morning, awaiting the hour ror starting the third of their series cf International yacht races for the America's cur. Fair-weather was the order early In t.e day, and the weather man prom vsedaillng winds. The forecast in Uca ted north or northwest breezes, moderate and slightly fresh. The freakish ereen challenger was scheduled to sro into today's race, start Ingat 11 o'clock, the usual hour, with the same skipper and crew that has handled her to date.

Sir Thomas Lipton's decision to keep Capt. William Burton at the wheel of the emerald-hued bIood. came as a surprise In the face of hurried and even worried conferences between the Irish baronet and bis closest advisors. What may occur to the personnel of the Shamrock's crew if Resolute- wins today and Charles Francis Adams demonstrates his "skipping" superiority once more Is matter for conjecture. It is the treneral however, that Sir Thomas will make change unless the fridpper of the Shamrock shows to better advantage than he has in the races sailed so far.

Resolute was a prime favorite in the betting today. She had many backers at odds of 8 to 5, and 7 to 6. Several enthusiasts made wagers the Shamrock will not win another race. Over Triangular Course. The contest today is scheduled to be sailed over a triangular course of 30 miles, and If the promises of the weath er forecaster hold out, the second reakj race of.

the series will' be decided by sundown. The usual armada of pleasure and excursion craft' of all kinds steamed out to the "hookl- for today's race. Enthusiasm among the devotees of yachting is hotter than ever, and the number of spectators who were expected to witness the race today was even greater than on Saturday. Resolute was scheduled to enjoy a greater handicap today as the result of a change in the sail area ofthe challenger. Sir Thomas notified the regatta committee of the New Tork Yacht club that he desired to use a larger club topsail-, and at the conclusion of taking measurements on this flapper" it was announced that the time allowance had been changed to minutes, one second.

"Spitballers" It is Doubtful If Major League dubs Will Eliminate Veterans Who Use the Freak Delivery. The new baseball rules have now re- cetved a thorough trial, and it safe to predict that a few of them wilt be tossed in the ashcan next winter. The American league has already returned to the old system of judging hits oyer outfeld barriers fair or foul according to where the ball is last seen by the "umpire. The intentional pass regulations are not being enforced and a strong reaction has set in against the proposed elimination of "spithftll" pitchers from the major leagues, says Sid Mercer. The "spitball," like old John Barleycorn, will die a natural death if allotted a reasoaable time to expire.

The minor leagues are not developing this type of pitchers any more because the spitter" is forbidden in1 most of these organizations, and young pitchers know they have no future in the major leagues if they stick to freak deliveries. There is a grewing sentiment among blK league club owners, however, aeainst casting out all "spitball" pitchers next season. Every American league club has at least one of these "pitchers and the National league harbors several. The elimination of all these pitchers in one season is therefore considered an unnecessary sacrifice of property rights. Strict enforcement of the rules aealnst "shine ball" pitching and the doctoring" of baseballs have hampered pitchers to such an extent that batters are the featured performers this season.

Even the arrival of hot weath-'er has not appreciably decreased the hittine or improved the pitching. It is SSSSly a relief to see a "spitballer" bob up now and then to curb the wield ers of mighty maces. A majority of the "certified spit-I bailers" now toiling in the major leagues are veterans who developed the delivery to hang on in fast com-i pany. At the most they have only a few seasons to go. It seems unfair to sud-t denly deprive them of their means of i livelihood.

or uibw ''jority of the club owners should vote I to retain them as Ions as they can hold the pace. It will be no easy matter for the I American league to replace in one sea-' son such clever pitchers as Covaleskie, 1 Quinn. Shocker, Danss, Sothoron and Russell, or for the National league to I recover fronr the loss of Doak, Good-1 win, Douglas, Hendrix. iDtchell. Grimes and Fisher.

Club owners, who have discussed this prospect informally, agree that these men should be permitted to yield grace -1 fully to time, and it is almost certain that they wil be the objects of special legislation next winter.

(By JACK VEIOCK.) New York, July 20.

The American Olympic athletes who win places on the team that is to represent this country at Antwerp will certainly be well coached. The selection of Jack Moakley, the famous Cornell athletic coach Lawson Robertson of Penn. Martin Delaney, of Chicago; Mike Ryan, of Colby, and Jack Maloney, of Stanford, marks the first time in history that a board of coaches has been appointed to prepare the athletes for the big games, and the move met with popular approval by followers of athletics throughout the country. Because of his wide experience and brilliant record as a coach of athletes in all departments of track imd field sports, Jack Moakley was made the head coach. Each of the other members of the board will have his own department to look after, with Robertson and Delaney handling the east and middlewestern athletes.

Ryan the marathon runners, and the Pacific coast representative the men from the far coast. Each member of this board of noted coaches has a great reputation for both coaching and conditioning athletes, and it is a certainty that the Olympics, committee could not have chosen more wisely. Moakley is known all over the country because of the' wonders he has worked at Ithaca. He is a veteran at the game, and in this his first appointment as head coach of an American Olympic team, he takes rank as a worthy successor to "the great Mike Murphy, who, by the way, was always a great admirer of Moakley. Commenting on Moakley's ability MurpHr once said "He is a great developer of men and deserves unlimited credit.

When he loses one champion he bringsout another to take his place." "With the wonderful material that will be available Moakley is certain to uphold the prestige established bv American track and field athletes in former Olympiads and it goes without saying that every member of the team ra wm get carerui and special attention Duffy Lockport Boxer Now in raining for Bout with Perry at Ball Park Friday Night. 3mmy Duffy, the Lockport boxer, who recently announced through his manager that he would confine himself to 138-pounders, is training at his Lockport gymnasium for the Friday night battle at the baseball park with Jack Perry, a Pittsburgh product.

As a matter of cold business, Bartfield wants to box Duffy here again. He has always claimed Doffy was not up to his own standard as a boxer. "I expect to do better when I get an- other match in Buffalo." asid Bartfield "than, what I did with Steve Choynski' You must remember I was a bit stiff from the Detroit bout and I had a big boil under my armpit, which had to he the day of the bout.

He has received instructions from Tommy Walsh, his manager, to prepare most faithfully for the Meyers bout, as he has important engagements pending in Ohio.

Victories over several star western performers, which he followed with triumphs ovetc Smith and Davis, have put Bud in the pink for his effort to reverse the 'popular decisfion that Meyers gained over him early last Meyers, who is the idol of the Polish colony, is keen to score a second wirr over Christiano. He shbwed rare form in whipping Smith in their return bout and then taking the measure of the" snappy Nick Michaels of Syracuse. If Meyers should defeat Christiano he will have established his claim to the junior championship of Buffalo and will immediately challenge some of the topnotchers like Johnny Dundee, George Chaney and Benny Valger. As there is bitter rivalry between these two Buffalo boxers their friends, which are legion, scent a rattling big glove bout for next Monday night. A splendid set of preliminaries will precede the main bout.

As a result of the enforced idleness, the Bisons lead was materially reduced, only a few points now separating them from the Dunn clan.

Willie Lewis was through couple of times before he ever saw Carpentier. And look what Papke and several other Americans did to Georges. Knocked him for a goal, didn't they?

This will be the first open-air boxing show of the Velodrome club, which staged some thrilling bouts in the winter and spring seasons at the Broadway Auditorium.

Velodrome park, which is easily accessible on the Broadway and Bailey avenue car lines, will be brilliantly lighted for the outdoor boxing. Contractors and electricians are now at work on the park fitting it in appropriate setting for the junior lightweight championship of Buffalo.

S52 mmtm Strwt. 1 5Q I LLS I 1 COMMENT BY EDWARD Johnny Wilson, the new middleweight champion, who jumped into pugilistic fame when he was awarded the decision over Mike O'Dowd of St. Paul by a Boston referee, will exhibit his boxing wares tonight in a Syracuse arena.

He will meet Young Fisher of that city, an ordinary boxer, but a rough and willing Fisher will serve as an excellent trial horse for Wilson to demonstrate to a skeptical public his right to wear the crown that has adorned some illustrious heads in the middleweight division. If Wilson is to prove to the doubting Thomases that he is superior to Mike O'Dowd, admittedly one of the greatest boxers who ever attained prominence in the middleweight division, he will have to knock out Young Fisher in jigtime and with comparative ease. Why? Because, Mike O'Dowd, when he held the championship, twice met Young Fisher and twice knocked him out. But Johnny Wilson is apt to find Young Fisher a tougher morsel to masticate than did Mike O'Dowd. This is because Wilson recently exhibited his fistic ability to metropolitan critics in a New Jersey ring against Soldier Bartfield and the Soldier won the popular decision hands down.

Wilson came in for a beautiful panning at the hands of the Gotham sport writers, who roasted him unmercifully as a champion and declared he was even inferio Al McCoy of Brooklyn, who once was champion and from whom Mike O'Dowd won the title quite easily before Michael enlisted in the war and sailed for France and the trenches. McCoy was known far and wide as the "cheese champion." In fact, we saw him lose to Willie Knockout Brennan in this city in a 10-round no decision bout. Young Fisher isn't a pretty boxer by any means. But he is a bruiser for action in the ring and, unless he has gone back considerably, he is apt to make matters quite interesting for the new middleweight What the fistic world ist waiting for is a return bout K.ween Wilson and O'Dowd. And Mike will be the favorite in the betting, 4H- DESERVE SUPPORT.

This is due to the generosity found in Joe Lannin, owner of the Buffalo baseball club.

The Bisons constitute the best ball club that has represented Buffalo in the International league in several seasons. Their meritorious work, therefore, should be well rewarded. And don't be surprised if the Herd wallops the Giants this time. HIS IS FAME. Babe Ruth is the greatest batsman of all time.

He is the home-run king. The big Bambino broke his record of last year yesterday and later in the day broke the new mark he had established when he cracked out his thirtieth home-run. He smashed out two circuit swats in the second game of a double-header between the Yankees and the Chicago aj Cv Mil That's Babe's new home-run mark. Prior to yesterday he had reached hie record of 29 ho.me-run made last year. In the fourth inning Babe leaned on one for four bases.

That established his new record of. 30 home runs. In the ninth inning Babe swatted out another clout for four bags. That made No. 31.

Babe Ruth is 0 ME baby with the bat- LESSON NO. 1. In order to enlighten a boxing critic who is puzzled over the termv "junior lightweight championship," we will state that this term applies to the -class of lightweights who do not scale more than 133 pounds. This is a class fixed by the rules of the International Sporting club and under whose rules the Walker boxing bill will be operated upon appointmem of a boxing commission by Governor Smith. The regular lightweight class covers weight up to 135 pounds.

ffg GEE, WE ARE GREAT. "There are only two lightweights who have a chance- with Benny once remarked Johnny after he had crossed bats with' Richie Mitchell of Milwaukee. "One is Richie." Who is the other?" he was asked, "Why, Johnny Dundee, of course." Now comes Ping Bodie of the Yankees 'with a statement of similar weight with reference to his own batting abilities. Ping says there are but two great batters in baseball. One is Babe Ruth.

You can guess whom he hadin mind for the other. Which follows along the lines of tooting your own horn for the other fellow won't do it for you. HE GIVES UP. Six years ago Jack then the heavyweight champion of the world, fled from Chicago and forfeited, his bail bond on a white slave charge. Ever since that time Jack has often wished he were back in the United States.
