thousands untitled orders have beesii
piled up ahead so that Ford sales
are still limited by nlanuf acturing
facilities rather thon marketing pos
sibilities. Particularly is this true
with respect to enclosed cars. for
which the demand has beer unus-
ually heavy.
Ore reason cited by Ford officials
for the unprecedented demand for
Ford cars is the present tendency
toward economy. Many of those
whose names have been added TO the
long list of buyers might well have
afforded larger and more costly cars
than the Ford, but it is the belief
that most prospective motor cars
buyers are investigating all of the
costs incident to motoring much
more carefully than at any period
during the past five years.
The estimated output of the Ford
factories for July. calls for 100000
cars and trucks, or production of
1850 a day for % days. Since the
assembling Of cars is being handled
during an eight hour work day only,
the hourly output will be So cars.

PHILADELPHIA, July 6.-Assur-
ances have been received from many
Of the leading tennis players of for
eign countries that they will enter
the national lawn tennis tournament
for the singles championship, which
will be held at the Germantown
Cricket Club in September. Indica-
tions are that William T. Tilden, the
title-holder, will meet as strong COM
petition in defending his title as he
did at the tournament in Wimbledon,
England, where he retained his title of
worlds champion.
Virtually every country that recog-
nizes lawn tennis as major sport will
be represented at the tournament, and
complete teams will be there from
England, France, Japan, Australia and
Denmark, officials of the Germantown
Club announced to-day. 1t is fairly
certain, they added, that Norton, the
South African who played Tilden to
five sets in the challenge round at
Wimbledon, will be among the foreign
invaders.

Anderson only won from the chop

Playing Through Champion
Avenges Early Season De-
feat by Short Hills Junior
By Fred Hawthorne

NEW CANAAN, Conn. July eight
contenders were still left in the
women's state championship singles at
the end Of play to-day, in the annual
lawn tennis tournament on the clay
courts of the Country Club of New
Canaan, and six pairs remained in the
doubles out of the original field of
seventeen teams that began play this
afternoon.
Mrs. Henry T. Eaton. the referee, as
sisted by Miss Rosalind Fl. Dorr, chair
man of the special committee, and
further assisted by Master Charles l..
Holmes, ran matters SO efficiently on
the four clay courts that they were
actually ahead of the schedule at the
end of the second day. While Mrs.
Eaton takes charge of the actual hand
ling of the various matches, Miss Dorr
is probably the busiest person in New
Canaan this week.
Not only does she help out in seeing
that the tournament schedule is kept
up to the mark, but she also makes
the draws, sees that the players are
on hand when their matches are called,
and maintains q swift motor transport
service between the railroad station
and the club, meeting incoming players
and whirling them to the clubhouse.
In addition, she is the moving spirit
on the entertainme nt committee. Mas
ter Holmes is just in his early teens,
but he does all the clerical work in
marking up the scores on the board and
is otherwise an important adjunct of
the tournament.
One of the best played matches in
the singles to-day was the meeting be-
tween Mrs. Edward Raymond, of Pei
ham, the p5aying-through champion,
and Miss Martha Bayard, of Short
Hills, N. J. Mrs. Raymond atoned for
her defeat earlier in the season at the
hands of Miss Bayard by winning this
afternoons match by a score of Ga,
Cd. All of to-day's winners reached
the round before the semi-fnal.
Winner Forces the Race
Mrs. Raymond was on the aggressive
from the start against Miss Bayard,
and her position play was so sound
and her shots so finely angled, that the

Virginia Yates, of Buffalo, 81, 6-3.
In the New York State mems cham
pionship r. Lindley Murray, of Mag
ara Falls, former national champion,
thrilled the gallery with a terrific up
hill fight in his match with Wallace
Bates, the Leland Stanford youth.
Murray took the first set at 7--5 and
the second set and match at GO.
Murray's victory put him into the
semi finals with Castle, Buffalo City
champion; Phil Neer, Of California, i'm

the only two matches played yesterday

too much for the hard driving Fisher,
who attempted to gain his points by
matching his furious forehand drives
through deep court against the former
champions clever voileying and puz-
cling service. In the last set Fisher
led at 81, but then Binzen speeded
up and ran out five Of the next six
games, the set at Cd and the match
The winner not only mixed up his game
by chopping and straight driving. but
he also showed skill in placing his vol
leys into the openings, and his service
kept Fisher on the defensive when re-
ceiving.
Ostendorf, who has been conducting
successful tennis renaissance this
season, after long period of tourna-
ment inactivity, showed lot of his
oldtime STUFF yesterday in his match
with the steady-going Fox. He always
was dangerous, though sometimes err
ratio overhead, and his volleying
smothered many of Fox's returns.

The House probably will succeed In
getting through all the approprla-

Senate is all bound around with dir

their own sweet time about matters.
Party discipline means nothing to
some of them, as they are going out,
probably not to return.

Charges that a filibuster is being
