The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1927-03-23

CHOULD the revolutionary workers
- and peasants Of China win, ire
mendous stretch Of territory contain
ing almost one third of the world s
population will be under the direction
of the workers and shut off from I'M
limited exploitation by and for the
benefit Of world imperialism. This is
no pipe dream but a very real posi-
bility, and nightmare to capitalism.
Whether the workers and peasants
will win now, or whether the imperi-
alists will be able to establish, tenn
porarily, new set of tools in China,
time only will tell. That the masses
will triumph in the end is as sure as
anything can be.
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1927-03-23

THE battle Of the millionaires is on
1 in Detroit. Aaron Sapiro may get
six cents of Ford's alleged billion and
he may get nothing but publicity. The
lawyers on both sides will get theirs.
They are having glorious time. Ford
has been amusing himself lambasting
the Jews for several years to the prof
it Of several wise writer's whose pens
are always at the disposal Of a fat
check. The average Jew, the fellow
who works for a living does not seem
to be very excited over Ford's rant
ings, but rich Hebrews have their dig
nifty to look after.
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1927-03-23

WHILE the horizon is aflame with
W the glare Of cannon and rumors
of impending war are buzzing thru
the chancellories of Europe, the league
of nations seriously goes about the
task Of framing a disarmament pro-
gram. Of course, the lads are not
serious except in so far as they are
seriously bent on deceiying the mass
es. All the important countries affi-
lated to the league of nations have
war vessels in China. Only the most
naive believe that the imperialist pow
ers will disarm. 10 do so would be
the end of them. Like the old-fash-
ionedpresbyterian they are doomed to
damnation anyway but perhaps they
don't know it.

TENNIS SENSATION
BEGAN GAME EARLY

WIMBLEDON. June 24.-Betty
Nuthall, England's latest tennis
prodigy, who has just passed her six
| teenth birthday anniversary. began
playing tennis at the age of Z, when
she was hardly able to lift a racquet.
She. like Suzane Lenglen,s was
| taught the game by her father. good
tennis player. who died last year. after
on operation which was caused by
| what was called "tennis elbow
| Betty progressed rapidly as child
| and was playing in open tournaments
| with various handicaps at the age of
3. She soon became junior champion
of England and then paired with
Gwendolin Sterry, the young English
player. who gave Helen Wills such a
hard fight in the opening round of the
womens singles in the present tourna-
ment, became hardcourt champion.
Miss Nuthall's first appearance at
Wimbledon last year was a disappoint-
ment. as she did not survive long
enough to reach the center court. She
has improved greatly over last years
form.
On May 90 Miss Nuthall celebrated
her sixteenth birthday anniversary by
defeating Mrs. Halls. Mrs. Molla Nal.
lory's sister, in the first round of the
women's singles of the Middlesex
championships at Chiswick. She won
the hard courts championship at
Bournemouth, on April 80 and was
chosen as English international rep
resentative this year against a French
women's team at Eastbourne.
Miss Nuthall is tall strong girl and
when playing with F'raulein Cecilie

peared older than the German girl,
who is two years her senior.
She has adopted the Suzanne tur-
ban as headgear instead of the eve.
shade introduced by Helen Willis. She
| dresses in short tennis skirts well
above the knees and generally wears
a jersey or knitted wooden coat of the
reddest hue.
Her good-natured sportsmanship
and her youthful appearance have
made her one of the best beloved Eng.

Be that as it may. let us get

open stance-so open that his right
foot, perpendicular to the line, was
actually on that line. All this to
permit him to bring the club head
back straight on the line. He
putted entirely with his wrists,
bending the left as little as pos
sible. And he did sink them. If
YOU doubt this method, just try
to bring the club head back off
line, as sketched at the bottom of
the drawing. and then try to putt
on the line. You have given your
self a most difficult task.

KIRKWOOD IS GOING
ABROAD WITH JONES
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
ATLANTA, Ca. June 24.--Joe
Kirkwood, Australian professional, de.
feated Bobby Jones, and 4, in an
1S-hole match yesterday and decided
forthwith to accompany the Atlanta
amateur on a hurried trip to Scotland
and seek to wrest from him the Brit
ish open title.
Immediately after the match at the
Radium Springs Country Club, near
Albany, Ga. Jones returned to At
lanta by automobile. Kirkwood came
in soon after by train. The two golf
erS. with Jones' father and two of his
friends had reservations on the
Southern Railways Piedmont = Linn
ited.. leaving at am. today for New
York.
Due to arrive in New York tomor-
row morning, the party will have only
a short time before boarding the
Pennsylvania for England.
Kirkwood did not resort to his fam
Gus trick shots against Jones yester-
day, but fired six brides at him to
finish the is holes with a &c, five
strokes fewer than Jones required.
The British title holders IL was one
under par for the course. but his
game could not match the Austral-

ing in on kirkwood when he re-
marked that he had half a mind"
to make the trip with Jones.
Kirkwood's game was strikingly
similar to the first of the record set
ting round Jones had in the qualify
ing round Of the British tournament
last year. His total was the same
as the famous "Sunningdale &C." and
on each nine he recorded Bobby"s
33. He was never over par, but had
one five and one two. whereas Jones
was never under three or four

Bobby slipped at the eleventh and

TILDEN SPLITS EVEN
IN HIS NET PICKlNGS
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
WIMBLEDON. England. June "a
Big Bill Tilden, who admittedly is not
a great success at foretelling the re-
suit of other tennis players matches,
finally picked winner yesterday. He
favored his fellow countryman. Fran.
els T. Hunter. in the match with the
English veteran, Arthur II. Lowe, and
Hunter won. GO. SIS. 6-3, reach.
ing the fourth round of the Wimble-
don tournament.
Tilden was elated over this-over
the victory and the fact that he had
picked the winner. When he was re.
minded that he had chosen Mrs.
Molla Mallory over Betty Nuthall,
young English player. whose victory
over the American yesterday was one
of the greatest upsets of the tourna-
ment. he said: We'll it is fifty.fifty-
not so bad
Tilden has not lost a single set in
the three matches he has played thus
far. and it is the general opinion that
if he had really extended himself he
might not have lost a single game.
Hunter is playing earnest and SUI
periOr tennis. His fellow teammates
said that If he succeeded in overcom-
ing his next opponent. J. Colin Greg
Dry. English ranking player. he UNI
doubtedly would give Henri Cochet.
the French star. stiff battle.
While the defeat of Mrs Mallory,
seven times American champion. by
Miss Nuthall was a severe shock to
the American team, they took solace
as far as possible in Hunters victory
over Lowe, in Tilden's victory over
G. T. Hughes, the triumph of Helen
Wills and Elizabeth Ryan in the dou-
bles and the fact that Miss Ryan. in
defeating Mrs. H. c. Broadridge,
CO, 6-3. showed the hest tennis yet
seen in the women's matches of the
1927 Wimbledon tournament.

| Robinson never has forgiven the
management of the Giants for re-
leasing him in other days when he
was connected with that outfit and
