WRENN PREDICTS
DAVIS CUP VICTORY
Chairman of Tennis Committee
Pins Faith on Maurice E.
Mclaughlin.
PRAISE FOR YANKEE TEAM

NEW YORK, July 29-Upon Maui
rice e. Mclaughlin rests the chief
burden of defending the Davis Cup.
which Robert d. WreDh, chairman of
the American cup committee, today
predicts will remain in this country.
Mr.. Wrenn stated that the committee
pinned it's faith upon Mclaughlin,
and added that the champion was
now at the top of his game; that he
was in perfect physical condition and
that his playing was bewildering.
Concerning the other members of the
defending team, Mr.. Wrenn spoke
highly of the work of Williams and
Behr, but was inclined to believe that
Bundy was a trifie heavy, a condition
he hoped would be overcome before
the international matches next month.
Chairman Wrenn announced that
President Wilson, former President
Roosevelt, Sir Cecil A. Spring. Rice,
the British ambassador, and Mayor
John Purroy Mitchell had been in
vited to witness the challenge round
for the international trophy.
Mayor Mitchell and former Presi-
dent Roosevelt have already accepted
the invitation. Chairman Wrenn ex-
poets favorable reply to his invita-
lions from President Wilson and the
British ambassador.
The foreign teams now in this coup-
try from Great Tls<tair, Aussraiis,
and Germany will come to New York

very sensible not to come here this

o
Kid Boonton, the Orange scrapper
has placed his affairs in the hands
of Jimmy Johnston, the New York
manager, and if the kid has any
class Johnston will soon bring it cut.
Jimmy is in a position to secure
matches in Gotham and he will send
Boonton to the front as fast as he
develops. Another thing, the Kid
should be able to come to the front
very fast under Johnston, for Jimmy
has a stable of able fighters, with
whom Boonton will be at liberty to
train and to learn. The Kid feels
elated over his prospects and says
he is going to get right down to
business and work hard to get to the
top of the ladder. Johnston told me
over the phone that he thought he
would be able to make a first-class
lightweight out of Boonton and said
that he would not rush him to the
front in a hurry. Jimmy saw the Kid
fight his best fight. 1t was the night
he met Harlem Tommy Hopkins at
the Stadium. In talking about Boon
tons prospects, Johnston declared
that if the Jersey boy could duplicate
his performance with Hopkins a few
times he would be up near the top
before very long.
o
Boonton is accused of running out
of a match with Jackie Dobbs and
of being afraid to fight other light
weights around here. The Kid him
self declares he refused to meet
| Dobbs for very good reasons an6
| that now that he has manager
/ he will put the challenges of Dobbs
and others up to Jimmy Johnston
Perhaps, before long, we will SCI
Boonton in a bout with Dobbs, who
has been fighting well lately and il
entitled to consideration. BoontoI

rarely seen in one enclosure.
Mclaughlin was forced to uncover
his choicest and most effective shots,
and his cleverest generalship. In the
last set. when Murray had a lead OF
five games to three, the champion
showed his mettle Murray lacked
but a stroke to win in the tenth game
when Mclaughlin by a sensational
leap into the air smashed the ball out
of his opponents reach and saved
himself from defeat.
For a set and a half Pell and Behr
played the finest doubles game seen
at Longwood for many year. The
team play of Hackett and Alexander
broke before it and almost went to
pieces. Then Behr became reckless
and began driving out of court and
sending easy balls into the net.
Pell's steadiness saved the day In
the last set it was his careful placing
that brought the games to five-all,
and finally carried Off the match.
