Barrier | As a result, the six times former | American champion, apparently as jdynamic as ever, stands out as the niain barrier between France's im- petuous youths and a. victory for them would end this country’s seven ven winning streak in Davis cup play. For the doubles this afternoon, Til- was selected to led the attack h Francis T.

The only hope of keeping the famous trophy, it seemed, was for the American pair to win today and for Tilten to con- dei two remi Johns ing singles matchés: nm apparently no longer can e most exciting Davis cup battle America has had since 1914. That year, it was another erent Californian, Mau- rice MeLoughlin, who occupied the role that Tilden holds today, but “Red Mac,” heroic as he fought, was unable to stem the Austral attack that won the famous trophy. “Little Bill” after his tragic de- bacle yesterday in a match that re- vealed him only a shadow of his old self, wai hastily withdrawn from the doubles hich he was to have paired with Tilden. He will play in the final singles match tomorrow; against Cochet, but only a miracu-| lous reversal of form, it seems, will enable the Californian to defeat the. brilliant young Frenchman who gave Tilden a stirring, even if losing, bat- tle yesterday.
