£e. Perry, Austin Just Too Good SEE LONG REIGN 0 Declare Reaching Challenge Round Is a Worthwhile Accomplishment. By the Associated Press. | EW YORK, August 8.—Appar- ently convinced that future Davis Cup campaigns will be just as futile as this year's so long as Fred Perry and Bunny Austin | play for England, America’s interna- | tional tennis team returned today on the liner Manhattan. They offered no alibis for their 5-0 shellacking. The players who arrived were Wil- mer Allison of Austin, Tex.: Johnny Van Ryn of Philadelphia, Donald Budge of Oakland, Calif., and Gene Mako of Los Angeles, besides non- | playing Capt. Wear and Harry Hill-| man, Dartmouth track coach and ath- | letic trainer. | “Nobody is going to beat England as long as Fred Perry and Bunny Austin represent her in the Davis Cup com- petition,” the 31-year-old Alliscn said. His teammates echoed the sentiment. They were a disappointed crew, but the veterans, Allison and Van Ryn,| said the trip was not a complete flop. Exceeded Expectations. JE GAINED the satisfaction of getting into the challenge round again, which was an accomplishment George Lott, Ellsworth Vines and Bill Tilden said we couldn't do.” they said. The Texan is by no means through with Davis Cup tennis as far as dou- bles are concerned if he is “invited to try out for the team next year.” How- ever, it is unlikely he will ever again play singles. Van Ryn said he would like to play cup doubles with Allison until he is 40, which means 11 years more. “Freshmen" Budge and Mako passed on most of the speech-making honors to their seniors. “I think if Allison had defeated | Austin in the first singles match we would have won the doubles and then maybe the cup,” the red-headed Budge said Budge Must Speed Up. “It was a great experience for me. ‘Wimbledon inspires you to try harder because you know youre up against the best plavers in the world. I have more confidence now than I had this time a year ago.” Wear and Hillman painted a bright future for Budge provided he can im- prove and speed up his footwork. “He was almost as slow as a snail, yet he beat such stars as Von Cramm and Austin,” Wear said. “Budge tried hard and so did the other fellows. | ‘They were most conscientious but we just weren't good enough to beat England and it took a lot of luck to beat Germany. I Agreeable to Wood. | “ A S FAR as Sidney Wood was con- cerned he was highly erratic and Hillman reported him ‘not in the best physical condition.’ He knew it, however, and suggested that Budge and Allison play singles against Ger- many.” Wear didn't make any suggestions for the future but one of the problems, he said, is that it's hard to approxi- mate “our players' ability. “In other words, the men chosen for the team sometimes do not seem able to reach their peak when they are needed most,” he said. Hillman Praises Squad. HILLMAN. however, had something to say about that. “This was a brand-new experience for me and I enjoyed it,” he said. “The boys were wonderful and co- | operated with me fully. Except for Van Ryn. all weigh more than when they started for England. Van Ryn held his weight. “It occurs to me that not enough time is allowed for physical condi- tioning. They assembled the players at Philadelphia only a couple of weeks before they sailed. It's my opinion the training period should start in March.” While all had different views on this subject and that, it was the consensus that the German baron, Gottfried von Cramm, has beu,erJ‘ strokes than Perry. The Englishman’s margin of superiority lies in his un- shakable confidence and speed, they said. “Von Cramm looks and is a sweet player,” said Allison, “but who wins— Mr. Perry!” e BOXERS PAY GARDEN Wrestlers Fail, but Corporation Enjoys Good Year. NEW YORK., August 2 (#).—Boxers banged in the money for Madison Bquare Garden in the fiscal year ended May 31, but wrestlers didn't do so well. | “All important branches of the company’s business showed substan- | tial increases both in gross income and direct profits, with the single excep- tion of professional wrestling,” it was | stated. | SPORTS.

The an- | nual tournament was abandoned in Virginia Van Wie | 1917 and 1918 because of the World War Miss Van Wie denied laughingly that her retirement may have been inspired by romance. She asserted “Getting married? No, nothing at all like that.” The Chicago star practically disap- peared from tournament golf after | winning the 1933 women's title. Then she entered the 72-hole “derby” of | the Women's Western Golf Association |and finished with 323, 10 strokes | ahead of the field | _She is visiting in Ligonier with Mrs. William Guy Strodes. 20 YEARS AGO IN THE STAR ’I‘HE Holmead Tennis team con- tinues to lead the Suburban League, although it came within an ace of losing its first tourna- ment of the season yesterday when Princeton Heights took three of the six matches played.
