If his performances against England in the challenge round had been planned, they hardly could have be:n better calculated to make the great little Frenchman a drawing card, if and when he goes on a world tour with Big Bill Tilden. They can bill Henri as the “French Davis Cup team” swithout ich fear of contradiction. Cochet Davis Cup Team Cochet, at Roland, Garros, had the distinctior. of single - handed saving the classic cup for France, achieving something that 'nld n tried and failed to do for America at Germantown in 1927.

With Big Bill in the line- up, playing the way he has in| pro company this year, America would have had little difficulty reaching the challenge round and | been at least an even choice to No. Hy4TC, break through the subnormal| Marine Green French defense. i Lz}i:::;f‘;m Sells No. HGR, golf and handbag pencil The Unranked Helen The fallacy of the ranking sys- tem of the United States.
