U. S., France Fight Davis Cup Play Changes
—.. - - _
SEEK EESS ACTION
Logical Arguments Offered
for Putting Event on
Biennial Basis.
By LAWRENCE PERRY.
NEW YORK. June 20—France and
the United States will lead a vigorous
fight at the annual meeting of dele
gates of Davis Cup nations in Lon
don this month against two proposed
changes in the scheme of Davis Cup
play.
First, there is the campaign pro
mulgated by England to have the fa
mous international trophy in compe
tition every other year instead of an
nually. The other proposed change is
backed by Germany and Belgium,
which suggest that the matches cover
two years, the first year devoted to
preliminary rounds and the second to
semi-finals and finals.
Reasons for the changes outlined
above are as logically based as are
the reasons for making no change.
It is all a matter of viewpoint.
France's contention, with which the
American tennis body agrees, is that a
team being built up to win interna
tional honors absolutely requires the
experience of annual play against the
leading players of other nations.
Building Team Slow Task.
It will be recalled in the case of
Prance that, by slow and sure degrees
throughout the seasons of 1924-5-6, a
combination was effected which in
1927 came through to a Davis Cup
title. So It was with the United
States in the years when Prance
and then England held the trophy.
Through season after season of rigid
international tests a team finally was
developed which last year brought the
cup back to these shores.
On the other hand, the contention
of Germany and England and other
countries similarly minded is that
Europe is choked with lkwn tennis
every summer. Incessant rounds of
Davis Cup play, it is held, seriously
interfere with national tournaments
and other tourneys which are im
portant to the countries holding them.
Europe is so crowded with tennis
playing nations; there are at least 15
holding their own championships
every summer and there are dual
matches between neighboring coun
tries. And, of course, there is Wimble
don. With three or four or five Davis
Cup rounds to be sandwiched each
year into these schedules, the prob
lem of adjustment is so perplexing
that a year’s break in Davis Cup com
petition would be gratifying to those
Who have to do the adjusting.
Annual Challenge Optional.
So far as the U. S. L. T. A. is con
cerned. feeling is that, if a nation does
not wish to challenge for the cup ;
every year, it is under no compulsion |
to do so. As a matter of fact, of the
*0-odd nations affiliated with the
Davis Cup group, not more than 50
per cent enter annually. So the
American idea is that, if England, or
whatever nation, finds it more ex
pedient to enter teams biennially
than annually, let it do so without
breaking the tradition of year-by-year
play.
Nations sitting in at the London
meeting have one vote each. It is
unlikely that the U. S. L. T. A. will
send a delegate from this country as
Chuck Garland was sent last winter
to the International Federation con
vention. With from six to a dozen
officers or members of important com
mittees who will be attending the
Wimbledon championships. June 20
to July 2, some one of this group will
be named by the American Davis Cup
Committee as its delegate.
Feeling among tennis authorities in
this country is that hardly a chance
exists that any change will be made
In Davis Cup playing policy.

Junior Davis Cup activities for 1938 will get under way at 9:30 o’clock
tomorrow morning when 13 invited youngsters meet at Army-Navy Club to
contest for initial positions on the season’s ladder. Although the first official
rating of the J. D. C. squad is the theoretical reason for the gathering tomor
row, a more Immediate objective is the real purpose.
That is an inter-city match with the North and South Carolina Junior
Davis Cup squad which will be played ♦
next maty a lie moon on the courts of
the Service Club. The Carolina* are
sending a group of players who cur
rently are students in colleges and uni
versities of those States and 'they
should prove interesting competition
for the local teams. Eight singles and
three doubles matches will be played.
Although no effort to name the
positions which they will play on the
team will be made until after tomor
row's trials, the following boys have
been invited to try out for the Wash
ington team:
Ralph (Buddy) Adair. Jack Burn
side, Charley Channing, Ken toalby,
James Hardy, Jack Hoyt, David John
sen, Miguel Nunez, Doyle Royal, Dewitt
Smith. Leonard Sokol, Billy Turner
and Bill Wickham.
That group does not include
the three who topped the final
rankings of the local J. D. C.
squad last year—Harry Heffner,
Allie Rltienserg and Harry
March.
Heffner ha* moved to another city,
Ritzenberg will be unable to play
because of a recent death in his
family and March has not yet re
turned home from college.
The rest all were ranked below
them on the squad last year in the fol
lowing order:
Johnsen, Adair, Channing, Turner,
Royal, Nunez, Hoyt, Sokol, Dalby,
Hardy and Wickham.
Tomorrow's practice session will be
uhder the guidance of Gene Herman
SOFTY LOOPS SLUG
FOR 96-RUN TOTAL
Old Milwaukee Tops Bond, 15-11,
in Sunday League—Scoring
Free in Atlas Games.
Slugging predominated in softball
games yesterday as 96 runs were
scored in six games of two of the city’s
largest leagues. In the Atlas loop,
three of the four games found the win
ners scoring no less than 11 runs,
while in a Sunday Morning League
tilt 26 runs were totaled.
That came in the game in which
Old Milwaukee had a 14-0 lead as early
as the third inning and went on to
whip Bond, 15-11. Five runs in the
seventh gave the losers hope, but they
were helpless thereafter. In the loop's
other game. Berwyn noaed out Colum
bia Heights, 5-3, out-hitting the
Heights team. 9 to 8.
Judd it Detweiler, Police Court, the
Herald-Times Owls and Civil Service
were victorious in the Atlas League.
The Herald-Times Robins proved the
victims of Judd it Detweiler's 11-2
assault; Somerville was routed by the
Owls, 16-3; Police Court nipped G. P.
O. Press, 4-3, and Civil Service out
slugged The Evening Star, 13-10.
PITCHES NO-HIT GAME.
Russell Trunean pitched a no-hit
game yesterday to give his Palisades
Peewees an 8-0 victory over the
Brookmont Peewees. Eddy Audt was
the Palisades’ best hitter.
BAGS DOUBLEHEADER.
Two teams fell before the Brum
bach softball ten yesterday, Stevens
bowing, 13-#, and Nixon, 7-4. Both
games were played at Buckingham, Va.
Kirkwood's Tour a Thriller Sans Golf
Wins $7,500 on Dollar Turf Bet, Nearly Becomes Victim of Leopard.
By FRANCIS J. POWERS.
CHICAGO. June 20.—Joe Kirk
wood, the gadabout golfer, who has
been everywhere and seen every
thing, is about to do a book—"By
ways and Bunkers." Kirkwood,
the Australian trick shot artist, has
just returned from an 18-month
girdle of the globe with Walter
Hagen and has one of the finest
collection of pictures any camera
man ever snapped.
Joe has some shots of the Sino
Japanese War that never have
been duplicated and his pictures
of Balinese dancing girls—whoo,
whoo and whoo!
One of Kirkwood’s finest shots is
that of the Calcutta racing course
clubhouse. It is interesting be
cause it is a part of one of Joe’s
best yams. Joe was marooned in
Calcutta for a six-week stretch due
to a broken arm. His supply of cash
was running short when he was
invited to the race course.
to Calcutta they have a daily
treble, similar to the American
daily double, except you must pick
three winners. Joe wagered $1 on
three Indian horses—he does not
even recall their names—and they
galloped home to pay him $7,500—
that’s right, seventy-five hundred
dollars for one. It was then that
Joe went over to the Island of Bali
and rented a cottage.
Kirkwood also told of a very
narrow escape from serious injury
while hunting in Africa. Hagen
had grown tired of traveling by
motor and had taken a train to
some town in Nairobia—or maybe
it was Portuguese East Africa.
Kirkwood and a native driver set
out on a 200-mile trek over roads
that sometimes were only trails, in
a rickety automobile. But let Joe
tell the story
“It was about 2 o’clock in the
morning when the lights of the car
picked up one of the most beau
tiful leopards I saw on the entire
trip. We had checked our heavy
guns and I had onto a light rifle
in the dir. I toidltbe driver to
stop and climbed out. I let the
cat have it, right behind the left
shoulder, as I thought.
"The leopard went down, but I
knew one never is so dangerous as
when wounded. So I quickly
opened the door of the car and put
a foot on the running board. A
second later the leopard came
hurtling through the air, and I had
only time to leap into the car and
slam the door when he struck the
side of the machine. Then he
crawled away into the brush, but
we made no effort to find him, for
a wounded leopard doesn't know
anything about pars and birdies.”
Kirkwood says Hagen made some
thrilling shots on the big game of
both South Africa and India. How
ever, neither of the nomads took
aim at elephants, rhinos or hippos,
for the license fee on those animals
is $500.
Kirkwood contends a wounded
African buffalo is the most dan
gerous of all gams, but let Hagen
Ml pea abort thdfeeens tone.

Mid-Atlantic Drawi D.'C. Boy*.
Johnsen and Bobby Bensinger, ju
nior and boy champions of the recent

Johnsen won both the junior sin
gles and doubles championships, while
Bensinger, playing his first season of
