SEABRICillT, N. J., July 22 ( I N S ) « >I —The annual Invi ta t ion tennis tour-I nament began today wilh one of the

nost select f ie lds in several seasons.Both national champions were

I ready for action—namely, BobbyiRiggs. and Alice Marble.- " ,I Riggs, who drew a first round bye,I was scheduled to oppose ChaunceyIDepew, Jr., of New York, with theloutcomo thereof in no noubr..

Bryan Grant , tile plucky l i t t l e• southerner, was to make his 1040Jeastern d e b u t , - a n d he drew a toughlone in Wil l inm Canning of Ihe Cali-Ifornia delegation.J Welby vnn Horn of Los Angeles,Irunner-up for the 193D nationals, was

another highlighter to put. in a first-hppearanco in this sector. He had anlengageraent with Isidore Bellis, the• crafty University o£ IJennsylvani.i•representative, who, while cagy and•all that, is scarcely up to the bril-•liant van Horn and that devastatingIforehand.

Sidney Wood, the stylist, was to op-Bpose Hal Surface, Jr., of Kansas City,•no slouch himself. Frank Parker, tlie•1.930 Seabright victor, had a fairlyleasy first-round rival in Frank Froch-Iling of Chicago.I Frank Kovacs of whom much wil l•be, and has been heard, was booked

.vith JIarty Buxby of New Orleans.Buxby is beyond his prime but dnn-gerous at times.

Alice Marble, Helen Jacobs, Sarah|Palfrey Fnliynn, Helen Bernhard,

defending t i t l i s t , Virginia Wolf en-den and most of the elect of wo-jnen's tennis, were primed for theirfirst tesls.

Tunney wouldn't box in 302S. \\ 'hatwould he be; th inking about attempt-ing any sort of a comeback in 1940?Give the man credit for the goodsense he has shown since retiring.-

A remark made by Dempsey . fol-lowing his disgraceful*ilnsco with MatBad Man Bull Curry in Detroit ex-plains why the Old Man Mnuler gotoff on the wrong t rack- th i s late inlife.

''I've had so inany headaches latelyI just lied to do something to fnkcmy mind off my troubles," he said.

They haven't heen financial head-aches, for he is far from being hreike.

Denirsey now demands that wresSens put up a forfeit guaranteeinthey'll stand up and fight. What hreally asks. them lo do is stand uand be hit.

At the same time, Pittsburgh andOklahoma City, with 217 apiecetopped the race for the team cham-pionship now held by Los Angeles.

Coming back in an endeavor to re-capture the crowns he wore In 1931and 1933, Charles Ferrera, of SanFrancisco, turned in a masterful linksperformance as he lopped two strokesfrom par for his G9. The 35-year-oldstructural steel worker was the idolof the* crowd.

But his first round display was nomore brillianfthan the efforts of thefive others, from representative sec-lions of the country, who matchedhis 69. They were Worth Sttmits, Jr.,20-year-old college student from Col-orado Springs, Colo.; Luke Barnes, 20-year-old Atlanta, Ga., youth who wasjust graduated from high school; Ad-rian French, 34-year-old unemployeddraftsman from Huntington Park,Calif.; Fred H.

Nation's Three Leading Greyhounds MayGive Wonderland "The Race of the Year"

REVKKE, July 23—At this earlydate, greyhound fans are lookingahead to the National Championshipsto be run nt Wonderland late inAugust, as they argue the relativemerits o£ the country's three'leadingracing stars, Brave Gesture, whoforced the great Rural-Rube to eathis dust Saturday night; JftigleJangle and the Rube himself.

Jingle Jangle made her local debutlast night, having been crownedFlorida champion this past winter,when she came home ahead of RuralRube, Swanee and Cherokee Strol-ler, In the series which determinedthe Florida title. Last night's ap-pearance In the sixl h race, her firststart at Wonderland, served as aconditioner for the Johh.E. 'Howellstar and In another week she'll besent against the best racers at Won-derjand. Her appearance againstThe Rube and Brave Gesture Iseagerly awaited.

Bud Carroll, owner of .Rural Rube,refuses to back-pedal for auyone andcontends that his 1839 championneeds only 10 days of racing to re-gain the winning consistency whichmade him the idol of the fans a yearago.

As for Brave Gesture, his ownerArt Wilson, not usually given toboasting, predicts that he'll beat anygreyhound racing In America thisyear, besides breaking plenty of trackrecords, some of which will probablygo by the board during the currentmeet.

The race that • finds these threegreyhounds breaking out of the samebox will be the "race of the-year."Never in the history of the sportin this country have such outstand-ing racers been campaigning at. thesame track and the inevitable meet-ing will give the fans plenty to talkabout—before and after.

Nice Tennis Tourney Coming Up

SINCE EARLY LAST SEPTEMBER, THE SCHOOLathletes have occupied no small part of the daily sportsheadlines.. .a peck at the master schedule shows that thefinal competition of the 1939-40 scholastic season comesnext Saturday with the staging of the Lowell-Lawrence base-ball game in the downriver c i ty . . .this is the final week ofplay for the various representative teams of the- manyschools hereabouts.. .there is no question but what theseboys and girls have supplied thousands of us with muchpleasure during the 1939-<10 term and that, their endeavorshave been appreciated.. .the greatest portion of them willjoin the large army of sports fans while a smaller unit,will continue to appear in the sports headlines by virtue ofplaying with college, preparatory and private school teams. . . t o all we say, "Thanks—and Good Luck!"

52 Favorites Win at SuffolkWalter L. Taylor, America's leading jockey, continues

to set the pace for the riders at Suffolk Downs.. ,in the first,three weeks of the current meeting he has ridden 19 win-ners..^! Bodiou and Johnny Mcarle arc next, in line, eachwith lo...,Ioe Rosen has nine, Charlie Stevenson .eight•and Eddie Robart and Eddie Suttle come along next, eachwith seven. . . the Denomark Stable has had seven winnersto lead the money-winners.. .Dave "Red" Womeldorff,(rainer for the same outf i t , naturally heads the trainers.. .in143 races, 52 favorites have been returned the winner.

A Valuable FriendMany of you probably read in this newspaper last week

of (lie death of Henry Gouveia . . .only a young man, hewas unusually active in sports in (his city, particularly box-ing . . .he was a constant companion of Davey Andrews andthe popular Lowell boxer never appeared in (he ring without:Gouveia -being in his corner.. .having met this particularyoung man under a rather peculiar circumstance, we sooncame fo realize that he possessed a wholesome quality ofsportsmanship and was a valuable friend... .his sudden andunfortunate passing caused widespread sorrow among hisnumerous friends. . .the sports department of this news-paper extends its sympathies to his family!

Here Arc Some Golf Oddities.Tommy Armour has become one of (he more pro-

nounced \vagglers on chip shots and on (he greens...thehnbil is traced to Armour's only one good eye...he wasinvalided in the first World War!.. .Harry Cooper is thejTasfest. walker on a course.. .he runs fhe gallery ragged!...Craig Wood smokes cigarettes incessantly while playing...but seldom touches one off the course!.. .Sarazen is thefastest player in the game.. .and always wears knickers!...Jimmy De'niaret walks in a right angle to the left to get thespeed of (he green!.. .Norton Smith always carries a club,and everlastingly is practicing wrist action!.. .Dick Metzinsists on red tees!. .Byron Nelson must have blue markingson his ball!.. .Walter Hagen goes into a little jig when intro-duced to someone!. ..Ben Hogan and Lloyd Mangrum are.very "cold" golfers!.. .Denny Shute expects to be back on(he firing line within a couple of weeks... surgeons grafteda piece of.an-ankle into his wrist!

Wio'd You Guess?Last, week in this column we named Craig Wood to win

.t.he National Open with Lawson Little as our "long shot"...Little won the tourney, as you know, and Wood finishedfourth, four strokes off the leaders.. .you GUESS 'em, top?

. • . Even Without SzigetyOtto Szigety and Josef Asboth, two of Hungary's best

tennis players, will play in the national championships atForest Hills in September, the war situation permitting...which reminds us, that, the forthcoming tennis tournament,which will be sponsored fay the Belvidere Tennis Club, has allthe earmarks of being a'right smart affair . . .practicallyevery leading tennis player in the city will be in the com-petitions and true championships should be attained!

We Blow Our Horn—Put LoudFrom The Lookout.. .May 29., ."but (he latest to reach

the baseball front is that concerning Ray Blades' statusat St. Louis...from what we hear...he has to produce orscram... and -all this before June 15!".. .BLADES WASFIRED JUNE 7!

Now Watch!Billy Southworth and .Ray Blades differed greatly in

BOSTON, June 11 (/P)—If history^-repeats I tse l f , the Red Sox wi l l h'lulthemselves out of first place for thefirst time since May 5 late this niter-noon.

The last t ime they faced Bob Fel-ler, he yanked them off the top'andthat famed fircballer Is scheduledto work for the eager Indians in to-day's opener.

So far Ihis season, the Red Soxhave held fhe Indians even in fourgames and Manager Joe Cronin, wi thall of his strength available, has highhnjjcs his charges ran m a i n t a i n the i rpace agninbl their keenest rivals,who trai l hy but 14 percentage points.

Cronin has selected Jack Wilsonto work against Feller, who is outfor his n in th win In 12 starts. LouFinney, again available, is eager toregain the baiting leadership he lostwhile nursing his cold, and BobbyDoerr is scheduled to return to sec-ond base. Cronin also has HerbHash, his most dependable "fireman,"on call for relief work.

Al though he has been get t ing someof the best pi tching the Americanleague has seen this season, ManagerOssie Vitt is alarmed over the hit-t ing failures of his Indians, especiallyHal Trosky, Jeff Heath and BenChapman. Their current .averagesof .281, .253 and .180. Via claims,explain why the Indians • haven'tovertaken the Sockers during-- thepast two weeks.

The Bees, after seven straight de-feats, turned on the Cards yester-day and, after slugging three" pitch-ers for 21 hits, wound up with a12-2 win. much to the horror of BillySouthworth, who was taking his firs'tlook at his new charges. Southworthwill take over the Cards in tonight'sgame, when Dick Errickson will at-tempt to give the Bees their firstfloodlight decision inBob Bowman.

Cawley ShapesLegion Lineup

Various CombinationsBeing Tried Out

IXWELL—There will be some radi-cal changes made in the American Le-gion junior baseball ranks fonlght-atSheddpark If fhe weathermen permit apractice. It was learned today fromCoach Eddie Cawley that there Is agood possibility of Warren Desaulnier,regular third sacker on the team lastseason, being shifted over to the per-manent pitching ranks.

Leo Mulligan, infielder last year,may be shifted to an outfield berthalong wilh Lou Paparnaras and Bob-by Ayotte. The latter lad is one ofthe most versatile lads on the squad.He started out n s . a pitcher, wasswitched to catching equipment, andnow it appears that because of hisability to hit and field, may be changedlo the outfield.

Coach Cawley Indicated this morn-ing tha t his infield looks as thoughyoung 15-year-old Joe Donahue willcover first base,.with Kenny Dunn ohsecond; Bobby Lemire, short, andJimmy Kejly on third. The shiftingof Desaulnier lo a pi tching berth willgive the squad five hurlers. The oth-ers are Ed Leary. Dick Townscnd,Emi! Boisvert and Roger Coutu. RayCastor will be used as an outfieldertoo. while Johnny Kelley and BobbyPaylon are listed to do the recefving.

Al though these changes have notbeen made as yet, thev are antici-pated and wil l he tried" at practicesthis week.

LOOKS GOOD—Leo "Link" East-ham looks just like this in his Hart-<ford uniform. The local lad isplaying real nice baseball withthat club in the Eastern leagueand it currently holding down thafirst base position. Both his hit-ting and fielding has improvedconsiderably fhese past fewweeks.

By way ot showing his fitness forthe big test, Ferrier fashioned n fan-cy GG to lead the field in the openinground ot the Chtcaga open. Pacing nfield of outstanding professional andamateur aces—among them LswsonLittle, the nat ional open champion,Porky Oliver, Ralph Guldahl, DickMetz, Johnny Revolta and JohnnyBulla—even for the first round wasno mean feat.

Upon arrival here Ferrier foundthat he had to remodel his entiregame. In the first place, the longocean trip from Australia had spoiledhis swing. Natural ly an .uprightswinger, he . discovered, on his arrivalthat the 'practice nlioard the rolling,pitching ship had changed his swingto something very flat .

The larger bail" used In this coun-try presented another problem. Fer-rier found' the shallow-faced woodsand old Irons he hnd been using en-tirely unsalisfaclory with the largerhall. There followed a long ?!ege ofpractice to accustom himself to newclubs and even after weeks of prac-tice James finds It difficult to puttth'e 'big ball with his usual accuracy.The greens, too, presented a prob-lem (o be mastered .,
