A. Curtis Busher defeated "Punk" Mill er and Odor won from Doherty Mon day afternoon in two interesting al though not close matches of the Y. M. C. A.

tennis tournament. By defeating Doherty, Odor won his way Into the semi-finals and as he probably will have little trouble In taking the match he is expected to be one of the contenders for the championship. The score of his match with Doherty was 6-1, 6-4, although the score does not indicate the quality of tennis player. Both players- did well, getting over both serves and returns and the ball was often in play for sev eral strokes on each side. Busher had little trouble in win ning from Miller, taking two straight sets t-J, 6-z, and taking even love games in the two sets.

Miller was un able to return his serve much of the time and it was impossible to place the returns where he could not reach them. The match was the first Busher has played In the tournament, his first round match being Iorrelted to him but as Millikin champion for sev eral years and one of the university men who won the state college championship at Peoria this spring he probably will rank high In the final results.

(Nineteen innings.) TODAY'S GAMES. PEORIA AT DECATIR Bloomlngton at Danville Quincy at Davenport Springlield at Dubuque. Commodores rested up yesterday for the opening game this afternoon with the Distillers. All of the men are ready to go against the Peoria crew with the same spirit that they did against the Blue Sox. when they captured two out of three games.

The Distillers wound up their series with the Watchmakers Tuesday and arrived in Decatur early this morning. Delos Brown arrived at local head quarters Tuesday afternoon and said that he was in good condition. He will be given a chance this afternoon to show what he can do in Three league baseball and he should have no difficulty in making good. He has plenty of pepper and is always in the game working hard. He is a good fielder and is a heavy hitter.

He will probably be used at shortstop in the game this afternoon. Klrmayer on Slab. Seaman will in all probability hurl the game this afternoon against the locals for the Distillers while Kir maver will be on the rubber for the locals. Seaman is supposed to be Row land's best bet on the firing line al though he has several new men on the staff who are pitching great baseball. Romine and Jerry Akers are two of the new hurlers who will be seen on the local lot for the first, time this year.

Akers is a Quincy boy and play ed with the American league team. He later was sent to the International league and Rowland got hira when he became a free agent. SCREENINGS. The in their last appearance on the -local 5ot lost two out of three games. Rowland has strengthened his hurling staff since mm out koiio jjarnnger is out.

ot tne game. Many is covering the shortstop job and is doing a good Job of it. Bloominpton? Charles Williams of Chicago, was in this city today and it is said was in a conference with certain members of the Quincy and Bloomington baseball clubs. Hnwever, many believe thai the Ohlfed secretary is dickering with a star hurler on the Bloomlngton team. As Bloomington has only one star hurler It is not a difficult problem to solve who William is after.

Walter Wentz the Blue Sox shortstop, returned to his home Monday and Harry Simpson is covering the shortfield job with Da O' Le a ry be i the bat. Wen is giving his leg a rest for several days. An Injury to his leg was the reason for his leaving the American association. The Boston Braves have at last found themselves and now are playing as good baseball as any other team in the league. Stal lings has at last whipped the team in snap and if it were not that the Braves are off to a bad start they would make things As it is, it looks like they are1 going to make some of those second division teams look to their laurels.

Eddie Herr is still with us and will remain for the battle this afternoon to get a good look at two good teams. Eddie says that he has been beating it around the bush so long that he has to stop over and see a good game, in order to be' able to pick up high class players. Chick Fraser. scout for the Pittsburg Nationals and former manager of the Commies, will be In this part of the state within a short time. Fraser will make Decatur his headquarters during this time.

Several men we know of in tills circut might be a boost for the falling Pirates. However, it would be better for Davenport and some of the other clubs to sell their stars at this time than the local management. The loss of several stars from the Commie ranks would soon send the locals toward the bottom of the heap. Scouts from the Washington and New York American clubs will be'in this league within a short time to look over the material. Both clubs have their scouts headed this way.
