in its editorial columns has attacked
the American ambassador. William

following editorial tomorrow:
While the American ambassador,
Mr.. Collier, as the diplomatic repre-

government when he returns here.
and there is no likelihood of violence
against him. neverthe less this is no
guarantee he will be treated In the
most friendly fashion"
The editorial, which Is entitled
Guest by Force" declares that Mr..
Collier lost the con 9dence of Chile
during the plebisciSe proceedings and
sets forth alleged instances of Mr.
Golfers acts. 1t declares that due to
acts much less serious than those of
Ambassador Collier. the United
States asked for the retirement of a
British ambassador at Washington,
and that if the Chilean government
should ask the United States not to
permit the return OF Mr. Collier to
Chile it would be merely following
the example set by the United States
itself.

COCHET WINS TITLE.
DEFEATING LA COSTE

PARIS. June Is lP).-The French
hard court championships ended yes

elevation of q new title holder in the
mems singles in the person of Henri
COchet, the former Lyon Hall boy,

The score of the Lacoste Cochet
match really eXagserates the differ

Cochet was at the highest point of his
form, Lacoste obviously was i'll. He
gave evidence of the effects of the
bronchial trouble that has remained
with him practically since his visit to
the United States last Winter He
played most of the time with much
effort and hardly tried for the mira c.
ulous placements Cochet kept shoot
ing into the corners of the court
Cochet's play was such that most
observers were willing tonight to CON
cede him place in Wimbledon's last
four at least and a most brilliant fu-
ture in tennis.

was discounted long in advance. 1t at

To encompass such a figure it was
necessary to play bold golf. Conser
vatism would be of no avail in such
q contingency so he aimed his irons

he delivered.
At the fifteenth his topped brassie
shot meant temporary discourage
ment, because it seemed to forecast
a six for the hole, but his quick
comeback restored confidence and he
went to the sixteenth with his
chances of victory increased insteaS

Now the sixteenth hole offered that
temptation to disaster which SO often
lures the unWary--it was an easy

but the more dangerous because 1t
seemed so innocent.

Willie, having operated with the
utmost bOldneSS up TO TINS point,

cided not only to play short but to
play short OF the green.
He calculated that he might get
his par by chipping up and that at
any rate he could better afford TO
waste the stroke he had gained on
the fifteenth than to incur a ).

Ii was good strategy. AS it turned

Another great advantage of this
