Little Willis Davis Called Ty

earlier rounds Davis fought to the
finals, favored by the gallery be-
cause OF his dazzling tactics. His
every move smacked OF the spectac-
ular. Some likened him to the Ty
Cobb OF the courts, so fiery was the
Californians driving.
There were those in the stands
however. who strung with Doyle
who played cool, calculating and
conservative tennis and who upset
the dope when he eliminated George
Church.
The spirit OF chivalry really
proved fatal in Doyle's case, and
many say he lost to Davis in a
mixed doubles match staged prior
to the big event. The title passed
to Davis 6-2, rs and Immediately
after winning he FASTENED to Buf

travelled with such velocity as to al

The system used In Argentine re-
moves all doubt OF the public as to
the honesty of the racing game
said Hood "A large bulletin board
Is stationed in the infeld. opposite
the grandstand. Before each race
the names and numbers OF all the
horses are posted on this board, and
AT intervals OF 10 minutes the mum.
Der of tickets sold on each horse
are posted. This is done three
times on each race. thus giving the
public an idea what horses are be.
ing played and what each horse will
pay. The third is the final state
ment and the race is not started
until the total number of tickets
on all the horses is posted.
NO tickets are sold after the
horses leave the paddock. Then
they parade up and down in front
OF the grandstand. for public inspHc-
ton. The man al the mutucl board
signals the starter with red flag,
when everything is ready. Eight
races are run day, but there are
only two days of racing week.
Thursdays and Sundays. From 500
600 TO $4,000 is bet on a race. The
cheapest ticket is two pesos. 46
cents in American money. An ordi-
nary purse race is worth $1,000 and
the cheapest purse is 1900 for the
steeplechasers.
THE racing associations take OF
10 per cent of the money bet
through the machines. but about
half OF that goes TO the government
and charitable institutions. Their
betting also differs from ours. There
is no separate show betting Yon
