By the Associated Press. | ONDON June 22—The United | States Ryder Cup team hardly wasted a minute be- tween its arrival in England | and the beginning of practice for the international matches at| Southport mnext Monday and | Tuesday, but the earnestness of ‘Walter Hagen and his crew failed to shake the confidence of the British. An hour after the Americans reached | Waterloo station they had escaped | from the welcoming crowd and were | practicing on the Addington course near Crcydon. After watching their | impressive workout, Henry ~Cotton, British professicnal, said the visitors hadn't given themselves long enough to recover after their long journey. *¢ 1) RITAIN will win the Ryder Cup,” | Cotton predicted. There was nothing in the | Americans’ practice session to convey | the idea that it would be an easy victory for the British, however. Hagen, captain of the team, showed himself still a great golfing personality as he gave an exhibition of chipping dead to the pin from 40 yards away a dozen times 'in succession. Billy Burke, smoking a big cigar—one rarely sees | cigars on a golf course here—hit terrific | tee shots, while the glant Dutra toyed | with his irons. ! Leo Diegel shcwed his old friends he still putts by contortions and sinks them from the corners of the greens. | Gene Sarazen scught a remote corner | of the course, smacked some vicious | 300-yard drives, then spent 10 minutes | in a bunker with his niblick. | HE Americans also hesitated about predicting a victory for them- selves. In reply to the formal ve‘}’come of Southport’s mayor Hagen said: “I think we are in for the biggest fight of our career against your bril- liant youngsters.” When the subject of the British open title, which he will defend at St. Andrews in July, was brcught up, | Sarazen commented, “I understand there are some very tough Englishmen | about, and that some of them are on the Ryder Cup team.” gl Considine and Roberts Play Off Tie in Chiséfers’ Event. Checked by darkness yesterday, George Considine and Bill Roberts ‘were to play off their semi-final singles match in the Chiselers’ Tennis Tourna- ment at 5 o'clock at Potomac Park. ‘They were tied yesterday at the finish of play, each winning one set and two games in the third set. Hoffecker and Dreschler won their quarter-final doubles match by defeat- ing Miller and Blanchard yesterday, 8—6 26, 6—4. Today's double pair- | ings will find Hoffecker and Dreschler playing Treuhart and Huls and Her- mann and Tompkins opposing Stauffer and Ritzenberg. * Pinals in both singles and doubles will be played tomorrow. s | COURSE IN LIFE-SAVING.

OOSEVELT HIGH SCHOOL, which had no foot ball team last season because of lack of a field, will return to the gridiron next Fall, when the school's new athletic field will be ready. The Ruf Riders also probably will devote more attention to track, as they have a cinder track available. A small grandstand will be erected and Roosevelt is planning at least one home gridiron game. The school has never had a sports field and is looking to decidedly better things athletically. Eight foot ball games have been ar- fl‘sxmu\danothnhexmdwhe ted.

That qualifying round at Con- gressional was a hot affair in every way. In the first place it took a card of 78 or better to make the first flight, and in the second place it took 86 to make the sixth and last flight. Com- bine such hot scoring with the heat of the two days of medal play and you have quite a torrid combination. Along toward midafternoon yester- day young John Connolly, Rock Creek Park caddie, who attends Roosevelt High School when he isn't busy playing golf, walked up to the eighteenth tee needing a birdie 3 to tie Luther Steward for the medal at 73. He drove to the | edge of the eighteenth green, 270 yards | from the tee, knocked a chip shot past the holg and sank the putt for the tie. Where there were only four men who bettered 80 on Tuesday, 14 turned in cards of 79 or better yesterday. A play- | off at 78 was only averted because Dr. Don Johnson of Congressional, could not appear and dropped into the second flight Several of the better players of the Capital failed to make the first flight, but on the whole that first flight is truly representative.

N a two-year road test of standard tires, ALLSTATES wore on the average from 13.8%, to 57.1% more miles than the other standard brands. We wore out fleets of cars—ran tires six million miles. Every day we moved each tire from one wheel to the next, so that all makes tested would undergo like wear. And not one ALLSTATE Balloon blew out! Many tire makers have striven to end blowouts and their dangers. For insurance records disclose that tire failure is a chief cause of fatal accidents. That whenever you drive over 35 an hour you are betting your life on your tires. So makers of leading tires have added extra plies, made rubber tougher, treads heavier, cords stronger. But tires continue to blow out. Now Sears, in these six-million-mile tests, has demonstrated that not strength alone, but STRETCH in the cords, is the way to make The reason is this: When a car is in motion, the tires flex up and down constantly. If the cords lack stretch, this forms a hinge on the sides—' frays them out—createsa “Blowout Zone.” That’s the sipEs. Hence why 959% of the blowouts do not occur through the tread where wear is greatest—but through for ALLSTATE Tires, a wholly new cord was invented—a marvelous Superlastic Cord with 25%, to 309, more stretch than average.
