., ‘ SPORTS. MEET ARGENTINES - INFINAL SINGLES Shields and Wood May Get| Call to Carry Burden of Play Abroad." Chase in the Western Het- isphere final with Argentina, which they clinched by winning the doubles yesterday, and a week from today two of them will #e headed for Europe with high lipe of a world triumph. Due to their brilliant performs:lees | sgainst Argentina, Frankie Shiclds and | Sid Wood will be recommended by their non-playing captain, Bernon Prentice, to represent the United States in singles matches with the European winners, and if successful in these, to carry on against France in the challenge round. Situation Changed. The play of the striplings in the last two days has been a revelation t. fen- nis folk. In announcing his intAation to recommend them for the ovarseas. singles, Capt. Prentice gave his una;ml- ified opinion that Shields and ood were stronger individual players than George Lott and John Van Ryn, who have been in Europe for some time and upon whom the Davis Cup ComMittee had expected to place the burden of the struggle abroad. BY R. D. THOMAS. NCLE SAM'S young Davis The showing here of Shields and have already shown since the season | pionship Wood, having their first year's experi- | ence in Davis Cup play, and de- | feats of Van Ryn and Lott by players of moderate fame in the French cham- pionships in the last scveral days have | given the committee food for thought. | This afternoon at 2:30 o'clock Shields | was to meet Ronaldo Boyd, No. 1 Ar-| gehtine, and Clifford Sutter, #nother | Graw and Mack had their last duel and | peaten, youngster, was to take on Guillermo | Robson, the visitors' No. 2 plaver.

Had the big red-head been in top trim, in the belief of Edwin l"ren:h.\ captain of the Argentines, Boyd and Zappa would have won the doubles. As it was, Zappa and Lucillo del Castillo mace a brillant fight of it. The score | was 6—/i, 8—6, 2—6, 6— | ‘Wood and Shiclds played the same hard driving and terrific smashing game that carried them through the two opening matches, but the South | Americans almost matched it with speed and cunning. Little Zappa, bouncing into every part of the court, played smash for smash with the Yankess, outstripping both in scoring 21 place- ments. Dashing for the net at every oppo-tunity, he frequently outgeneraled the young New Yorkers in the close- range exchanges. Service is Weak. Del Castillo’s service, the point score showed, was the vulnerable spot in the Argentinc’s game through which Shields and Wood advanced to_victory. In the crucial set, which the South Americans deuced three times, Del Castillo lost three of his service games and in the last sct his service was broken twice. The match was punctuated with | rallies that held the gallery spellbound, | the ball being exchanged at close range | with such rapidity as to resemble the | rat-tat-tat of a drum. ] After today's contests the United States team will move toward New York, playing a week in New Jersey.

Not that Tommy 1s any veteran in point of years, but he is in ring wisdom. Loughran has boxed most of the good ones and there are few angles of the art of leather pushing that he doesn’t know. The veteran expends his strength only when he sees his opening. At all other times he is a conservationist. In the Loughran-Campolo bout, the end of almost every round found Tommy | where he had only to bend his nees to sit down in his corner for the rest period. It was Campolo who always had to walk the width of the ring. Let us suppose that Loughran saved only three seconds a round by those tactics, although sometimes he must have gained a second or two more. Three seconds per round for 10 rounds is 30 seconds. That means Tommy had half a minute’s rest that Campolo didn't get. In a 20-foot ring, it also means that Campolo walked at least 200 feet that Loughran didn't walk. His nation matters not a bit, And neiiher does his name; But tell us if the man can hit, And whether he is game.

EW YORK, May 30.—Jesse Har- letics at Notre Dame, is coming N to New York early next week to visit West Point and meet other par- ties involved in Notre Dame's program for the remainder of the year. So far as the athletic authorities at West Point know, Harper's visit will relate to the establishment of acquaintanceship with the Army folk. Those who have been following affairs at Notre Dame throughout the Spring believe that after the foot ball season next Fall definite steps will be taken in the matter of selecting a foot ball teacher who will be head coach in all that pertains to such a position, if not in_name. It is not felt that Harper will be very active in coaching. Of course he will serve in an advisory, as well as a out of the game so long that the storm and stress of having foot ball men in his direct charge would not appeal to him even if he had kept himpelf abreast of all the gadgets that hhve been learned at Notre Dame in the course of the years. ‘The ion of men pretty close to Bend institution is that the Stuhldreher or Madigan Due To Be Notre Dame Grid Coach per, the new director of ath-| supervisory position, but he has been | season of 1932 will see either one of two men at the foot ball helm of the university. One is Harry Stubldreher, | now at Villanova, and the other, Ed- | ward P. (Slip) Madigan of St. Mary's in Califcrnia. It is understood that either of the two men would not be easy to obtain. In spite of comparatively inferior ma- terial at Villanova, Stuhldreher is seated very comfortably there and it is certain that the future will see bigger and_better Villanova outfits. As for Madigan he is well beloved out in the Moraga Valley and also pleasantly situ- ated. Still, the call of alma mater is & very potent thing. College Sports ‘Base Ball.

The blond youngster responded with a brace of performances that stamped him, in the opinion of veteran critics, as the greatest college runner at his distances since the famous Ted Meredith. East- man breezed his 440 in 0:48.3 and just loped home in the 880 in 1:58.3. He was a favorite not only to win both races today, but perhaps to meanace Meredith's mark of 0:4725 in the quarter that has stood since 1916. The rest of the Stanford team, as if inspired by the loss of their captain and sprint ace, meanwhile outdid themsalves in a series of fine perform= ances that threw a decided scare into the ranks of the erstwhile favorites, Southern California. Stanford's hus- kies took four of the six qualifying places in the discus, three more in the shotput. They collected a total of 16 places to 13 for Southern California. Coast Far in Front. These two Far Western squads so far outdistanced the best of the fleld that it locked like a dual meet today. Yale wit: 7, Pennsylvania with 6, top- ped the Eastern group, which figured to wage a private fight for third place in the point column. Southern California’s failure to start Frank Wykof in the 220-yard dash fig- ured as a factor that might cost the Trojans the title they won a year ago t Cambridge, so close were the “‘dope- sheet” calculations. Wykoff set a new meet record of 9.6 seconds in the 100~ yard finals yesterday. His duel in the final today with Eddie Tolan, the Michi- | 2an Negro, was a festured event. Tolan was favored to win the 220, with Dyer out of the running and Wykoff kept out of the furlong by his coach, Dean Cromwell, because of the latter’s desire rot to have Flying Frank jans hoped their strength in where they qualified four stars, would offset Stanford's domi- nating position in the weights, also that the Trojan aces in the high jump and pole vault—Jim Stewart and Bill Graber —would contribute decisive points. Fifteen Finals Contested. Eastman, Wykoff and Tolan shared the qualifying day's spotlight with Ken Churchill of California, who tossed the javelin 210 feet. 7 inches: Lemoine Boyle of Pennsylvania, who leaped to a new meet record in the broad jump, 25 feet 1's inches; Bob Jones of Stan- ford, who tossed the discus 159 feet 21, inches, and George Bullwinkle, who ran the half mile in 1:55 and com. bined this event with his defense of the one-mile championship.
