DAVIS CUP SEMI-FINALS
At CLEVELAND TODAY
AustraIasIan and Danish Players In
Form for Matches

Cleveland, Aug. n.--Australasia and
Denmark will come together on the
grass courts at the Mayfeld Country
Club this afternoon, in the first two
singles matches of the semi final round
uf the Davis Cup tennis series.
Erik Tegner, Denmark, plays Nor =
man Peach, Australia at 3 p. NJ, while
Nagn Igerslev, Denmark, plays j. D.
Anderson at 80.
Peach, the captain Of the Australian
team, thus tackles the Dane who de-
feated w. II. Laurentz, French cham
pion, in a recent tournament in France.
In comparison with his Danish oppo-
nent, Peach is rather small as Tegner
stands six feet tall.
Anderson, who meets Ingerslev in the
other match this afternoon, Is believed
to be Australia g best player in singles.
He stands six feet three inches in height
and his victories in Canada and against
the Britons in Pittsburgh show he is
playing great tennis. He has a phe-
nomenal forehand stroke with q safe
backhand.
Ingerslev, his opponent, is the
singles champion Of Denmark. In fact,
he is considered the best in all Scan
dinavia. He prefers to play a back
court game, but is dangerous at the
net.

The Market

Increasing irrcgularity developed in
the bond market yesterday, where
prices OF many issues sagged off after
early steadiness. It was tendency
which was attributed mainly to profit
taking sales and the somewhat tighter
situation in the local money market,
United States government issues suf-
fered from larger offerings, about the
only exception being the Victory notes,
which yielded but slightly. Most of the
foreign government issues registered
fractional declines, while similar
tendency waa noted in the Industrial
and railway groups.

To Agure the preciea yleld On a bono il

TO figure the precise yield on a bond it
is necessary 20 use yield tables, but the
approximate yield can ghly hs figured
out by the following formula: Divide the
closing quotation on bond into the rate
OF the annual return. r. the bond is selling
below par you must allow also for the
appreciation Of the principal. To do this
subtract the market quotation from par,
or 100, and divide the remainder by the
number of years the bond has 70 run be-
fore maturity. For example, If a { per
cent bond is selling at 90 and has ten
years TO run. the annual return will be
s.ss per cent. The difference between par
and the market price will be ten points.
subtracting 80 from 100 Dividing ten
points by ten years the uuotieut will hs
This figure IS to be added TO 6.ss, which
is the annual return. and the result. T.Gs
