SPORTS. - Welsh Defends District Net Crown in Tilt With Lynch Today FINAL STARTS AT2 THE SUNDAY STAR, \\'ASHI GTON, WE MAY GET “THROWN’* FOR A LOSS. AT COLUMBIA [}LUB‘ Both Contestants to Play in Doubles Title Match Following Singles. UGH LYNCH, the only ]()cfi]J racketer to hold a decision over Barney Welsh during the last three years, meets that voung man for his District champion- #hip this afternoon in the first of two final matches of the District of Colum- bia tournament at Columbia Country Club. Welsh, who probably has established A record by advancing ' to the final round with the loss of only four games, those in the first of his five matches, | and Lynch will take the court for the singles title at 2 o'clock. Shortly after the completion of their match, Welsh will team with Dooly Mitchell against the Armv Leech Cup team of Lieuts. Dolf Muehleisen and Bill Robertson for the District doubles championship. All of today's finalists were decided by semi-final matches vesterday in none of which were the winners pressed. Welsh created something of A sensation when he made Tony La- tona his fourth successive victim by 6—0, 6—0, believed to be a record for local ten Seedings Are Justified. LYNCH who defeated Capt. Stan Robinson. 6—4, 6—3, didn't ap- proach Welsa's record, but he did reach the final round without the loss of a set. The outcome of yesterday's matches completely justified the | seedings, Welsh and Lynch bemz rated 1-2, respectively. Seedings also | ran true to form in doubles, Welsh and Mitchell being the favorites and Lieuts. Muehleisen and Robertson be- ing seeded No. 2. Thus was the stage set for a re- venge match for Welsh and an op- portunity for Lynch to show that his victory over the champ in an‘ was no fluke. That match, for the Edgemoor Club championship, re- sulted in a straight-set victory for the former Princeton net captain, but there are some who say Welsh ob- | viously was upset that day by con- ditions over which he had no control. On the record, Welsh, sixteenth nationally ranking netman, is a fa- | vorite to beat Lynch, who has bowed | to him in the finals of several tour- | haments within the past two years.! Doubles Imm Are Worn, ELSH, with & new doubles part- ner in Mitchell, was given brisk competition for the first part of each set, yesterday by Harry Heffner and | David Johnsen, but finally beat off the local junior doubles champions, 6—3, 6—4. Muehleisen and Robert- son, strangely, found even less trou- ble in Lynch and Latona, the latter bowing out in the semis, 6—2, 6—3. Both losing combinations, however, had been forced to play quarter-final matches earlier in the day, Lynch and | Latona conquering C. E. Dawson and | W. R.

"THIS brought up Buddy Myer, who bumped a slow roller to Gehrig. ‘The first baseman elected to throw for Stone at the plate, but Johnny slid safely and all hands were safe. Then Rick Perrell took & hand in things and singled to left, scoring Sington and putting Myer on second. : With only one out Harris yanked Weaver and sent Wes Ferrell to bat for the professor. Murphy, however, struck him out with a high and inside pitch and Powell dragged down Al- mada’s fly to end the inning.

HERE hasn't been as much fuss | since Fred Merkle forgot to| touch second, as big league base ball has stirred up with ‘Wednesday's fifth presentation of its five-star special, the all-star game. They took the player selection away from the fans, and since then the howls have been pouring in Iaster than Van Mungo's fire ball. Despite the fact that the expecta- tions are for a full house at Griffith Stadium, thereby evening up for the financial beating taken in last year's production at Boston, the echoes over the change in player-picking policy probably will be heard long after Wed- nesday's game. So far, this controversy has aroused as much interest as the game, itself, particularly with several managers squawking over the absence of one or another of their deserving players from the 23-man squad selected for each league by last year's pennant- winning pilots, Joe McCarthy and Bill ‘Terry.

'EVERTHELESS, all signs point to the expected clash of power and pitching between the American League's larruping bats, on the one side, and the screw ball, fire ball and fog ball flinging of Messrs.
