Tilden will meet Henri Cochet ii,
the next round, while La Coste will

who entered the semi finals today by
eliminating Antoine Gentien, con-
queror Of Jean Borotra, 6-2, 3-6, 6-4,

veterans will be found on the courts
when the real test comes.
The Davis cup is the goal toward
which French tennis will strain dur
ing the coming season. The France
United States match and the French
hard court championships scheduled
here in May; Wimbledon and the
American championships form part Of
Frances 1927 tennis schedule AL
though neither officials or players
will admit it, there is a feeling, how
ever, that failure in any and all OF
these four events would be more than
compensated by victory in the Davis
cup.
Lacoste, Frances main hope. has
been training carefully and playing
little tournament tennis during the
winter
There is a hard campaign ahead,
he said II don't want to reach the
Davis cup finals tired and stale
Borotra and Brugnon played most
of their winter tennis in the United
States. Brugnon also played on the
Riviera, where he defeated Cochet
for the first time in his career.
Young Christian Boussuss, at the
age of IT, also defeated Cochet IN
straight sets at Marseilles.
"Cochet plays tennis like poker"
said Max Decugis, ten times French
champion. Some shots remind one
of a poker player drawing to an in
side straight or trying to fill a flush
with a two card draw. When he
succeeds, he looks great. II he fails
we'll, enough said"
If the French team reaches the
European finals of the Davis cup they
will leave for New York on July q.

Oh the verge OF a knockout as the
final gong sounded.
The blclde westerner took the last
eight rounds and the first two were

pletely closed MelIo's right eye.
Toward the close OF the ninth,
Mello doubled up, under right and
left to the stomach and in the tenth
ne was hardly able to stand
