‘Smallwood Choice Over Overlin : 30-Foot Putt Wins for Dudley PUNHMAKES0E Capital Middle Takes Good K. 0. Record Into Bout With Navy Champ. BY JOHN B. KELLER. | OE SMALLWOOD, a middle-| J weight fighter who after mur.n“ roaming has learned to take| the boxing business more ser- | iusly than he did in his early days in this vicinity, comes home to Wash- | ington tonight for a crack at Ken Overlin—and possibly a chance to| meet Teddy Yarosz for a world cham- pionship. Smallwood already ranks among the top 10 middleweights and if he can get by Overlin, who only last Septem- ber won the middleweight laurels of the United States Navy, an effort will | be made to match him with Yarosz here before the current outdoor sea- son ends s Tonight's scrap should turn out to be one of those familiar puncher-vs.- boxer affairs, with Smallwood, the| puncher, going into it slightly favored | over Overlin, the boxer. ‘There is no doubt as to Smallwood's wallop. He has flashed it too often to | have it questioned. He did not do so in his early fighting days, but in the last year the Mohawk Athletic Club product has been socking savagely to build up a great reputation. He now iz recognized as one of the best punchers in the middleweight division. Smallwood K. O. Battler.

Tennis Doubles. By the Associated Press, ROOKLINE, Mass., August 19.— A brilliant field battled to displace a pair of old-time favorites as the ffty-fourth annual national doubles tennis cham- plonships opened today at Longwood Cricket Club. Wilmer Allison and John Van Ryn, United States Davis Cup tandem and former national champions, held the interest of the tennis-wise. They were defeated in the Davis Cup challenge round by a comparatively obscure pair of Britishers and there was specula- tion concerning their ability to uphold their tennis reputations in this country. AN INTERNATIONAL aspect fla- vored both men's and women's events, with Roderick Menzel of Czechoslovakia, Jacques Brugnon of | France, Enrique Maier of Spain, and practially the entire British Wight- man Cup team competing. NDIAN SPRING more than likely is.to have three men in the qual- ifying list in the amateur cham- pionship when the sectional rounds wind up tomorrow over the Four Corners course. If there are three men who are scoring better than three of Indian Spring’s stalwarts, they haven't yet revealed their capa- bilities. On the face of what may happen tomorrow, Roger Peacock and Volney Burnett seem to be sure things to qualify, with better than an out. side chance that Levi Yoder, the tall pine from Linville, N. C., may crach the list and make his initial appear- ance in the big tourney at Cleveland next month.

He picked up an eagle on the tenth and bagged four more subpar holes on the round, nearly canning a 40-footer for a bird on the home hole.

By the Associated Press. ED BANK, N. J., August 19.— Two days of racing on the North Shrewsbury not only brought Betty V. Melvin Crook's speedy motor boat, her second straight national sweepstakes title but stamped her as one of America’s fastest single-engined boats. Crook, Upper Montclair, N. J., youth and Princeton graduate, satis- fled with his performance Saturday when he set a new lap record of 61.813 miles an hour and an average speed record of 57.636 in the first six-lap, 15-mile heat, loafed through the two final heats vesterday. The two other boats in the event, Duster, driven by John M. L. Ruther- furd of Palm Beach, Fla., and Port Washington, Long Island, and Miss Hackensack, driven by Wilbur Hauck of Rochelle Park, N.

Mrs, Arnold was next; facing Kath- erine Stammers, conqueror of Miss Jacobs the day before and conqueror of Helen Wills Moody at Wimbledon. No one conceded her much of a chance, with the exception of Mrs. Fabyan. She had first-hand knowledge. Mrs. Arnold went out to defeat her high-class rival in a three set duel, 6—2, 1—6, 6—3, and clinch the cup for the United States. It meant little that the English doubles team came back to lick the Americans in the final match, Despite her success, however, Mrs. Arnold refused to alter her plans and eater the national championships.

A newcomer to the team, Arthur Simmons, completed his first season with the winners without losing a match, a record shared only by Barney Welsh, who did not see action as much as Simmons. Other mem- bers of the championship team were Hugh Lynch, Alex McConnell, Alan and Allie Ritzenberg. FOUR playgrounds were to be repre- sented this morning on the Chevy Chase courts in the championship rounds of the junior and senior doubles tournaments. Chevy Chase, Takoma, Park View and Burroughs had teams playing for the titles. Two high school captains were among the senior contestants—Charley Root, ex- leader of Central, playing with Paul Borden, and Melvin Dower, former No. 1 Roosevelt player, pairing with Delwin Blue. If play runs true to form, Barney Welsh will meet the same man in the final round of the National Public Parks tournament at New Orleans that he defeated last year for the title. Arnold Simons of Louisville, who won the championship in 1933, only to lose to Barney last Summer, has been seeded No. 2, just behind the local ace. Ralph McElvenny, Welsh's doubles partner and the only other local con- testant, was seeded No. 4. Play was to open today.

Somehow or other, though, when I hear it's a blow-out accident . . . and there are | many of them . . . my blood turns cold. Take my word for it, if you saw one bad blow-out accident you'd never gamble on tires.” Heat, generated inside the tire by today’s high speeds is the great, : unseen cause of high-speed blow- outs. Rubber and fabric separate. A blister forms and grows bigger and BIGGER until—sooner or later —BANG! A blow-out! And your car may take a plunge off the road. " But when you ride on Goodrich BUY THESE GOLDEN P BLOOD COLD” Safety Silvertowns you're pro- tected against high-speed blow-outs by the Life-Saver Golden Ply—a specially treated, secret compound that resists heat. Thus, high-speed blow-outs don’t get a start. Put Goodrich Silvertowns on your car. They cost no more than other stagdard tires and give you months of extra mileage in the bargain!
