Pipp Soon To Play For Third Major Team

Iluee Reading Stan Figure i Defeat of Store Team in Fast Contest

Oar a week'* vacation the member* of the South Jersey Daaketea*ue mill awing Into action again this week. Each team Is for two battle*. Each team ha* taken part In eight of battles scheduled for the ftrst half rhamptonship and at ptes--e Mortis Guards are reposing easily at the top of the heap, lowerer. the Atlantic City CtMsen-SoMlerv haten't copped the half title and won't do so If the other teams can prevent It. aiz wina with only two detent* gives them a big edge over the league member*, but with Bridgeton. MllltiUe and Wildwood r second place with four vrtai and an equal number of l< ilng may happen. — Of the three teams which have a chance to drop the Guards. Me appears f present to be the best. The Glaasworkers made ible showing at the start but the audition of Joe Regan at center ansformed them Into real pennant contender* They Improved [lately after Regan Joined the team and were the Br*t to i over the league leaAen.

It is the hope of the Ocean City fast that George Goetz have the aaaa effect on the local qaintet, bow that the Egg Harbor star has joined the team.

Bridgeton Hot Through Yet Bridgeton, the other Cumberland County team in the race, the Bght yet and appear* f have the best chance of winning Wildwood Is probably the weakest of the three team* which for second place. The Morris Guards, playing on their own should Improve their lead over the other member* In the battle it with Wildwood, for although the latter are to be feared on iorv# court, they are hardly fast enough to successfully com the Ouardri-tea. However, they will enter the game with the wishes of all the fans In the other cities. The GUarda. In spite M the fate that they gre playing the tail. when they come here next Thursday evening, will be In for t battle. The Oee&a City team, because they have not st any tlmi t started a team which has been practicing together, ant aided this rather lamentable condition condition by making ransubstitutions, have not perfected any real teamwork and a* a rere reposing in last place. Now. however, the managers appear re decided on the teaip * hkh they will use In the remaining of the schedule snif with this live playing together regularly suit should be ranch more satfhfaciory.

It would be onr suggestion, however, that Mangold and

Ibe latter is a forward and

does not appear at home at the guard station, while Joe is oat of the fastest floor guards in the league and could probably be more effective if used at the back court job.

Helen sad Suzanne The critics appear to be pretty well unanimous In the decision when MJ*n Wl I Ik •our American champion, meets Mis* Lenglen, rid e tbs Preach courts, that the latter will through sSocHnsuy to another win. No less an authority Big Bill Tllden has come out with such a statement and It would that these person* should know wher.of they speak. How. on't keep us frnw> jopling any the haidor for the plucky little ■ersity of Callfor^n^Aaa. It may be that prraa reports have given us the wrong Impression He French girl and perhaps we shouldn't say anything about it, attitude kga.Tfe#V>ontcn'Wia for her crown for the past several trs hasa't ateiucA.iatm* xaclly sportsmanlike. The alleged cooim her manner whenever Miss Will* happens to be about hasn't mads hope *ny the mure that she win when the two meet. Suaanne also appear* to be postponing the match with the tertcan champion, possibly In the hope that her strenuou* campaign 11 weaken her, and failed to play In the Gallia tournament last week kalso In the Nice meet this week, ualll Helen had withdrawn, atKigh she had stated that *hr would eater both tournaments.

At aay rate, the game which Helen is showing is getting the foreigner* somewhat worried and the betting odds which fvrmerty placed Suzanne a heavy favoilte. are grudoally ’ ■ ’ I now stand on 9-7 in favor of the world's

It is rumored that Dana is hariag a heap of trouble in getting the Oriole start to return their tigBrd contracts, and it would appear that players who are bringing home the pennant as frequently as the Baltimore players, arc entitled to > little of the rake off which come* with a title.
