DANvILLE NINE SLUMPS,
TEAM STILL IN CELLAR

The Danville team in the Pied
mont League has entered another
slump, having lost their last four
games. After a change of manage
ment, it was believed the team with
which several local players per-
form, would pep up. For a time,
this belief was supported, the Dan
vile combination taking three
straight victories. The last several
weeks the team has been in last
place, and at present is about eight
and a half games behind the leading
High Point team.
The Martinsville team in the BIZ
state league - having an interesting
fight with the Leakesville-Spray
team in this circuit for second place,
Scheduled the combination which
won the first half honors practically
has the second half championship
cinched.

Sport Comment
IN All Fields

The hand of fate reached out and
prevented Mile. Suzanne Lenglen
from playing for the biggest stake In
woman's tennis-America's tennis
championship.
She lost by default, following a
fainting spell soon after her match
started with Mrs. Molla Bjurstedt
Mallory.
Let's give Suzanne another chance.
Here is an opportunity for America
to show true craftsmanship.
A special match with u Ameri-
can champion, with the title as the
reward for the victor, should be ar
ranged. America does not want to
feel that there is a flaw of fate in
the title holding.
Keen as the disappointment SUI
zanne feels, it is not more than
every tennis enthusiast has at this
moment.
If the French girl il the greatest
m tennis player in the world,
we would like to see her get a sport
ing chance with our champion.
She is entitled to it. She defeated
our stars in France decisively.
The form she showed in that first
set against Molla at Forest Hills
was not her best, for she was i'll at
the time.
Just a few weeks 8 the French
officials of the Grand Prix held over
the big racing classic SO as to give
American drivers, who arrived late,
a chance to qualify.
You'll remember hat Tommy Mil
ton and Ralph DePalma won the
first and second places of the blue
ribbon event, too. If France had
wanted to go according to rules, we
would have been disqualified.
But the French people like to take
a sporting chance.
Sentiment
Wallie Pipp, slender first base
guardian for the Yanks, wants to be
in a world series this fall for his
fathers sake.
OF course, Wallie would enjoy the
spoils as much as the average Amer
lean, but Mr.. Pipp, ST.. is a terrific
fan.
The elderly Pipp Is vice president
of an enamelware plant at Terre
Haute, but he spends most of his
following Wallie and the
Yanks around.
He gets more pleasure in seeing
son Wallie foul one than he does out
of watching Babe Ruth hoist one
clear out into the country air.

The Stadiunls Limited, Sydney,

with the club for a series of five
fights at approximately $4,000 per
match plus expenses of himself and
manager, Jim Gilfeather, from the
time they left the States until their
return.
Shade brought his fortune of $780,
900 back home with him.
He is 81 years old, weighs ITO and
is 5 feet 10 ga inches tall.
While Shade was abroad, glowing
reports trickled back to this country
of his rapid rise.
While Australian champions have
never Jared well in America. Shade
is an American.
Just how good he is can't be doped
until he fights men of the GIBBONS
and Martin calibre.
But he has shown enough 70 guar
antee that he is real timber.
