Richards fought so furiously he
carried Johnston into an extra set
match and he took so much out of
the little Californian that Johnston
had nothing left when he met Tilden
in the final round and Little Bill"
went down,
There were possibilities of a rep
etition of 1922 in the final round
Of the championship this afternoon
at the West Side Tennis Club when
Tilden and Johnston took the court.
History Repeats
Where Johnston slumped under
the physical pressure and the nerv-
Gus strain that the youthful Rich
ards put him through in 1922 1t was
Tilden today who might suffer a re-
lapse in form after the narrowest
escape he ever had from losing his
championship.
| While 10000 spectators looked on
/ in amazement here Monday after
noon, Richards came within the pro
verbal fees whiskers Of downing the
great champion. Tilden was so near
| exhaustion and his nerves were so
frayed from the strain and heat he
scarcely could make himself audible
| in the last set OF a desperate five
| set match when he asked the UNI
pira to please keep the stands quiet.
Will Feel Effects
"Tilden will feel the effects of that
experience Tuesday and he will have
/ to be all that Tilden ever was to
beat Billy johnston" one Of the Of
fcials Of the tennis association said
after the match.
Johnston never had better
chance to win back his title than
in the match this afternoon. Tilden
to win must be the greatest player
that ever lived If Johnston is in
| Mondays form.
In the semi-finals Johnston swept
through to victory over Patterson,
the Australian, 60, SO, 60.

DEER KILLED TO
PREVENT SPREAD
STOCK DISEASE

AS final precaution in suppress
sing the dread foot and mouth dis
ease in California, inspectors Of the
United States department of agri-
culture have found it necessary to ex-
terminate the deer on two ranges of
the Stanislaus national forest in Cali
fornia. This action, decided on in
consultation with officials of the state
department Of agriculture and the
California fish and game commission,
became imperative owing to the pres
ence of the deer on ranges known to
have graZed after infected cattle and
sheep. Following the removal from
the forest of the domestic livestock
owned by permittees, the sacrifice of
the deer became feasible. A small
proportion of the deer, which are sus-
ceptible to foot and mouth disease, are
known to have been infected.
The necessity of the action was sup
ported by report on the situation by
Joseph Dixon, economic mammologist
Of the University of California. In his
report to the state fish and game COM
mission, Mr.. Dixon pointed out that
the quicker the work Of eradication in
areas where the deer are known to
have been infected, the smaller will
be the number of deer that will have
to be sacrificed. CALIFORNIA; game
assets will thereby in the long run be
best conserved" Mr.. Dixon concluded.
The migration of the deer population
to other national parks and to cattle
ranges is thereby prevented.
The outbreak of foot and mouth dis
ease in southeast Texas, announced
by the United States department of
agriculture, September q, and which
involved three herds, had spread no
further up to this weeks. Though
encouraging, this has not prevented
federal and state authorities for MAX
ing detailed plans in preparation for
any situation that may arise. Gov
ernor Pat NJ. Neff of Texas has tele-
graphed Secretary of Agriculture H.
C. Wallace, asking that the United
States department of agriculture take
charge of the work of eradication
