warrant is out for his arrest. The
officers were arrested the day after
the shooting on charges of inter-
fering with a federal officer. They

Lieut.. Rafael Salzman.
? Dickson is the federal officer who,
in August, 1925. shot and killed Otto

an border. Dickson was indicted by
a Clinton county grand jury on

IHDEN'S GAME
Being ANALYzED
Hiss Browne Finds Fault With
His Methods

Copyright 1927 by United Press)
Cleveland. O., July l (UP)-It
seems always unbelievable that
champions of many years standing
still have many things to learn.
William Tilden must surely real
lie that he can no longer let his OPP
ponents get within a point of victory
and then pull himself out of the
hole. There was a time three years
ago when Big Bills margin of supe-
riority was so large he could pull
this drama stuff and get away with
it. This year it lost him his chance
to win Wimbledon. the most coveted
championship in the tennis world.
When he had Henri Cochet Of
France 81 In the third set and was
two sets to the good, Tilden counted
the match won and, according to
cable reports, started playing tothe
galley and scribbling a little drama
with his tennis racket. But he wrote
himself out of the picture and made
Henri Cochet the leading man."
Cochet won straight games due
to Tilden's carelessnes.
Everyone who follows tennis, and
Tilden more than anyone else.
should know Henri Cochet is a slow
starter, but when he gets going he
is the most brilliant of the three
French musketeers.
The main factor which has been
responsible for Tilden's defeats by
both Lacoste and Cochet $ that these
two Frenchmen have the perfect
stroke to cope with Tilder.s cannon
ball service. They use very short
back swings, practically blocking the
Lall as 1t rises from the s~Gund They
stand close in to receive it and are
able to make their returns deep and
to keep themselves in position on
the court. Lacoste in last years
Davis cup matches blocked Tilden's
service beautifully. often driving by
Tilden on the return.
Helen has a real opponent in the
finals in Senorita D'Alvarez, mainly
because l feel somehow that Helen's
game will suit D'Alvarez, who does
HUI ocSHl W l&llHI SPSGus I iS tiiC ull-
canny change of pace which Su-
zanne Lengien could hand out that
would upset the Spaniard's delicate
timing of her strokes. This attrac-
tive Spanish girls every stroke is
picture. She is more fascinating to
watch than Suzanne, but not as eff
f1cient. / have never seen any man
or woman with such beautiful tim
ing, for she takes the ball SO soon
of the ground that it is almost a
pickup"
Helen Wills seems to be playing
right at tho top of her game and
apparently is hitting the ball very
hard, which is her greatest asset.
There is no man in tennis who can
hit as hard as Helen without losing
control.
I hope Senorita D'Alvarez will
come to America this year. She is a
picture of loneliness. beautiful fea-
lures, athletic figure and dresses in
Perfect taste. Her service stroke is
as picturesque as the thrust of the
toreador.
