A. Net Ace Explains Loss At Wimbledon Denies Feud With Moody NEW YORK, Aug. 6 (ff). Helen Hull Jacobs beat herself in her Wimbledon match with Mrs. Helen Wills Moody, she indicated today upon her return from a ten months' tennis tour of England, Egypt and France.

She didn't say so in so many words, but she did say it she had gone to the net more often the outcome of the Homeric three set final might have been different. Defending her national championship at Forest Hills In 1933, Miss Jacobs had her arch Oalifornia rival all tied up with her game at the net when Mrs. Moody defaulted in the third set. Her failure to resort to that strat egy at Wimbledon, she felt cost her whatever chance she had of scoring her first unquestioned victory over "Queen Helen, the First." However, Mrs. Moody had some thing to do with it, too.

"I didnt see her play In any of her preliminary matches," Miss Ja cobs said, "so when I faced her across the net it was the first time I'd seen her in competition in two years. She's Just as steady as ever, although I don't think she's hitting the ball as hard as she used to. "If I had gone to the net more often there might have been a dif ferent story to tell, but Wimbledon's turf is fast. The ball bounced hard and wide and Helen played it deep, so I didn't get many chances to run up. The turf at Forest Hills is much slower and that should enable me to rush the net more." Denies Friction A discreet exclamation, "Oh, good! was her only comment when informed Mrs.

Moody had definitely decided to enter this year's American championship. In Miss Jacobs' opinion it doesn't mean an automatic end to her three year reign as champion. She doesn't fear Mrs. Moody al though she still has lots of respect for her game. Another meeting with Mrs.

Moooy won't intensify their much publicized personal feud' for the simple reason no feud, personal or otherwise, exists, It's ridiculous for people even to suggest such a thing," Miss Jacobs said. "There is no hard feeling be tween us. Helen and I never have exchanged harsh words. We both play hard and naturally are out to win. I try to win every time I take the court against any Barth's Stars' Whip Anthracites, 6 to 1 With Patty Burke yielding only two hits and not allowing a run until the last inning, Billy Barth's All Stars swamped the Dunmore Anthracites, 6 to 1, at the Dunmore Ball Park.

Eclipse Softies Tic Aggies for Lead The Eclipse Hose team tied the Dunmore Aggies for top place in the Bucktown Commercial League race by beating Bucktown Boys, 6 2, while the Agglej were bowing to the Shoe Repairers, 8 1. Only one game will be played this afternoon with the Eclipse meeting Burke's team on the Sport Hill Grounds. The league president, Billy Pane, announced yesterday that all remaining games of the Shell team will be forfeited to it opponent. According to the league's official batting averages, Polly Wllga, Eclipse catcher who hit only .218 in the first half race, is leading the league with a .458 average. He has made seventeen hits In his last twenty five trips to the plate.

Favored 2 to 1 50,000 to See Whether Negro Can "Take It" In Chicago Ring CHICAGO, Aug. 6 UP). Fifty thou, sand spectators will pay $200,000 to morrow night to see If Joe Louis, the Detroit bomber, can take it like King Levins Icy gives it. In a ring pitched over the pitcher's box at Comoskey Park, home of the Chicago White Sox, Louis, winner of spectacular knockouts in twenty three professional bouts, will meet Levin sky, Chicago's eccentric, but power ful walloper in a battle scheduled for ten rounds or less. Not since 1927, when Jack Dempsey and Gene Tunney fought before a record breaking crowd in Soldiers Field, has there been such a rallying to a fight In Chicago.

The general opinion seems to be that Louis will win, but the main point was what will happen if Levinsky pitches one of his wild haymakers from centerfield and drops the Brown Bomber. Levinsky Creates Doubt Louis probably never will have to take it, because in his amazing twelve months career be has been a merci less, quick finisher of his opponents. But lurking in Levinsky's powerful fist Is the doubt. Levinsky, is a wild, swinging, de sperate puncher with a record of hav ing floored Tommy Loughran, Mickey Walker, Jack Sharkey, Leo Lomski, and others. He has succeeded in belting all of his major opponents to the floor at least once, with the exception of the giant Primo Camera, and Max Baer.

The element of surprise the match presents, the remote possibility that Levinsky may come up with the most stunning victory of the year a victory over Louis has fired the imagination of fight fans. Louis was held a 2 to 1 favorite in what little betting was reported. There were few Levinsky backers, but anything can, and generally does bap pen in any battle in which Levinsky participates. When he figures to win, he sometimes loses, and when he looks like a cinch to get licked, he comes up with a victory. Levinsky never was in better condition.

He weighs 198 pounds, the lightest he has been in five years, and has trained as never before. Louis and Levinsky, down to fighting weight, spent today in seclusion. Louis has asserted he will knock out Levinsky as quickly as possible, possibly within five rounds. Levinsky also said he would need five rounds to hammer Louis to the floor. LEVINSKY'S PURSE ATTACHED CHICAGO.

Aug. 6 UP). Papers to garnishee King Levinsky's share of the receipts from his fight against Joe Louis tomorrow night were taken out in Circuit Court today by Harry Sugar, a fish dealer, who holds a $5,000 judgment against the Kingfisn.

Umpires: Walsh. Blondy Ryan Sold By Phils to Yankees PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 5 VP). Blondy Ryan, former Giants shortstop, went back: to New York today, told to the Yankees by the Phillies, President Gerry Nugent of the local National Leaguers said the deal was strictly on a cash basis. Ryan recently lost his short stopping berth on the Phillies to young Mickey Haslln and the Phils sent him co Baltimore on option, but the inflelder refused to report to the minor league club and said he'd quit baseball to study law.

Today's deal changes all that. It was understood Ryan would be shot into the Yankee lineup In place of the injured Frank Crosetti. A Day in Steve O'Neill's Birthplace Famous little Minooka, high on the mountain just south of Scranton, is crammed with landmarks of the glittering, base ball playing O'Neills, especially the greatest hero of them all chunky, genial, "plain guy" Steve, manager of the Cleveland Indians. Stop in front of the tiny fire house In the 2700 block of Minooka's main street, Birney Avenue, and old timers will ex plain that on the site of that gray building Steve was born forty four years ago. Drive about 300 yards east of the fire house and a wide expanse of partly turfed level territory will be seen.

Coal begrimed miners, working for the Moffatt Coal Company, will stop toiling to tell that this great field is the old Drive Park, once circled by a fence and the most widely known baseball diamond in the anthracite diggings a quarter of a century ago. Only a series of short stumps remain of the fence. Years ago back in 1911 or 1912 great sections of it were torn down by vandals and much of it went into stoves to warm Minooka homes. The diamond itself is no longer the even surface it once was but its very sight recalls that it was here that Stve and his brothers. Mike, Jimmy and the late Jack, started their careers and careeued into the big leagues.

It was on that field, just below four cemeteries in one of which rest in eternal sleep old 'Squire Mike O'Neill, cheerful Mother Mary O'Neill and Catcher Jack O'Neill, who died only a month ago, where Steve learned the rudiments and became one of baseball's greatest catchers. Cows still graze on the grass between the old diamond and the cemeteries, but the sound of the bat striking the ball is strangely absent. Instead of hoarse voiced boys bellowing on the diamond, the observer sees a pair of youngsters indulging in the more gentle game of tennis. Where Cobb and McGratc Washed and Ate Drive back over the old dirt road and one block east of Birney Avenue is Pittston Avenue, where, in its 2700 block, is the old O'Neill homestead. It was from here that the O'Neills sallied forth every day to play baseball in the Driving Park.

It was here that John McGraw, Hughey Jennings. Ty Cobb, Johnny Kling. Frank Chance, Roger Bresnahan, Hal Chase, "Wee Willie" Keeler of "hit 'em where they ain't fame," stopped to wash and partake of Mother O'Neill's supper before returning to Scranton and the trains to the large cities. It was in that green little house, where Mrs. Helen Mc Kenna, sister of the O'Neills with the same deep blue, smiling Irish eyes, now lives, that Steve stared, his mouth opened wide, at baseball's greats.

Many of the greatest players In baseball history came out to the Driving Park for exhibition games at the turn of the century the Detroit Tigers, the New York Giants, the Chicago Cubs and the old New York Highlanders, now the Yankees. And after the games, these immortal heroes would stop over at O'Neill's before their departure. The O'Neill homestead is in keeping with the baseball traditions of the family. In the vestibule is a large picture showing the Chicago National League Ball Park of July 23, 1904. In that game was Catcher Jack O'Neill and because he was in it that picture is highly treasured.

Miss Johann O'Neill, second eldest of Steve's four daughters, was at the homstead yesterday, spending a few days with her aunt. Madeline is the eldest and the youngest are twins, Olive and Rose. They are in Cleveland, where Steve makes his home. Miss Johann and Mrs. McKenna, both of whom know baseball inside out, will explain that it is quiet in the O'Neill homestead now.

Jimmy is away in New York, where he works for the Tower Magazine and resides with his bride of four months. Mike is living on Madison Avenue, Scranton. Pat, manager of the old Minoka Blues, has his home on McCarthy Street, Minooka. Pat threw his arm out when he was a boy and never was able to play like his brothers, but he could manage and did the pilot's job well. "I wish mother and Jack were with us yet," says Mrs.

McKenna, as she sits in a rocking chair beneath photographs of the late Mr. and Mrs. O'Neill. "They would both be happy to see Steve where he is now manager of the Cleveland Indians Isn't that wonderful!" "Butch" Gallagher, Steve's Best Pal In a little white building, perched on a hillock not far from the fire house, lives John "Butch" Gallagher with his family and his white haired, twinkling eyed mother, Mrs. Bridget Gallagher.

Those inquiring for details in Steve's early life always are referred to by Minookaites to Gallagher. "Ask Butch," one is told, "he knows and he's got all the pictures." Gallagher, outfielder with the Minooka blues In their heydey and with a heart as big as his giant, blond self, works in the Lackawanna Railroad shops In Keyser Valley now. But baseball still Is and always will be his hobby. He was Steve's boyhood chum and remains to this day and forever Steve's moat intimate friend. Memories of the Driving Park's famous days linger fresh in Gallagher's mind.

They're as green as the grass in the Spring. It is to Gallagher's home that Steve's four daughters always rush when they come to Minooka and they delight in gazing for the 'teenth time at pictures of their father when he was young. Gallagher reveals that Connie Mack, of the Athletics, allowed Cleveland to take Steve and "Shoeless Joe" Jackson, great outfielder for the scandalous Chicago Black Sox, to help his old first baseman and captain, Harry Davis, when Davis was managing Cleveland. "Connie Mack told me up in Boston some years ago," says Gallagher, "that he knew Steve and Jackson would be great stars, but he wanted to give Davis a break and so he let Cleveland take them from Worcester where Mack had farmed them out. That's how Steve got to playing with Cleveland and not with the Athletics.

"When I heard about Steve being named manager I was as excited as anything," Gallagher continues. "He's a great fellow and hell make a great manager. Nothing highhat about him. He's the same Steve now as he was when he was in the mines. He's going to make good there.

A nicer fellow couldn't make good." And Minooka and all this territory knows Gallagher sounds the keynote of the Steve O'Neill baseball argosy. Giants' Margin Whip Terrymen, 3 1, as Cubs and Cardinals Register Wins NEW YORK, Aug 8 WV The Brooklyn Dodgers knocked fll game off the New York Giant1 Wd in the National League today at lone Tom Zachary, the ancient southpaw, neatly mattered eleven hits to win nil seventh victory of the season, 3 to 1. With the Chicago Cubs beating Pittsburgh 2 to 1 the Giants' lead was trimmed to three games. The Giants had scoring chances In almost every inning but Zachary was at his best with men on bases, leaving twelve stranded. The only run scored off him was due to Jimmy Jordan error in the sixth.

pions by knocking a home run with two on the bases in the tenth inning of the Cardinals' series opener today with the Cincinnati Reds. The score was 6 3. The third Red Bird hurler to see action, Dizzy went to the mound at the start of the seventh and held the Reds hitless for the last four innings. With the score knotted at 3 all in the tenth, Bill DeLancey got a lucky double when Goodman failed to see his fly to right field and Karri pour is missed the catch after a long run. Charley Gel' bert was purposely passed and Leo Durocher sacrificed.

6 OP). Wee Roy Henshaw, who makes a habit of beat ing the Pirates, did it again for the Cubs, 2 to 1 today, but it took a pair of errors on a freak play to give Chi cago the victory that cut a full game from the Giants' leading margin. Ralph Birkofer, Pirates' southpaw, allowed the Cubs only four singles, half as many hits as Henshaw yielded, but he brought about his own downfall in the third, when the Cubs scored both their runs. After BUI Jurges scratched a single in the third, Henshaw tried to bunt and popped to Birkofer. The pitcher, apparently with the idea of tripping Jurges and getting both runners in tentionally dropped the ball.

But he got confused and when he picked it up, he heaved it past first base to the right field stand. By the time Suhr got it, Jurges was nearing third. So Suhr threw all the way to the left field boxes and Jurges scored. Henshaw, who reached second. scored on Galan'a sacrifice and Her.
