HENNESSEY STARS,
 TR0UNCES COCHE7
French Ace Humbled by Ameri-
 cans Play
By MARY k. BROWNE United Press Staff Correspondent Copyri4ht 1927 by United pressl

New York, Sept. Is UP) - Of the last eight survivors Of the men $ national tennis championship four are Americans and possibly five, because the Jacques Brugnon-Ar- mold Jones match was called at two sets all on account Of darkness.
 Things began to look brighter for acc. Henri Cochet was brought flown by the brilliant attack o, John Hennessey of Indianapolis.
 When Hennessey crashed into Cochet and took the first two sets but lost the third after leading four games 10 two-the wise ones said, There goes Cochet pulling himself out of a bad hole and he will go on to win. He is the greatest five set player in the world.'
 Cochet went on to win the fourth set and the match stood two sets all. Apparently Hennessey decided that he was not going 10 let Cochct get away with his usual fifth set tactics. which are 10 rush his op- ponent off his feet by smashing his returns deep and to come 10 the net to cut off the opponents pass ing shots, which usually have lost their sting at the end of a long battle.
 Bill Tilden should win from Jean Boro'ra for the Bounding Basque cannot hold thc s+ constant alternating Of lobs and drives which Tilden feeds him. Til den has disposed of Borotra easily ill their last two meetings.
 Borotra has been playing badly but he may be resorVine his best for Tilden. but I do not believe even his best will prevail.
 Little Bill' Johnston has ad- Nancod morrily by way of straight set victories. He looks like Little Bill' of old and not old Little Bill He should dispose of the Win ner Of the Brugnon- Jones match. but it may give Little Bill" the test of five set match which so many believe he can not stand.
 Manuel Alonzo told mo after winning in a hard fought five set match against John Van Ryn:
 T had to play everything I had 10 win. Van Ryn kept such good depth in the first two sets l could do nothing against him. counted on his tiring and losing that depth. It is exactly what he did and that is how l won.''
 John Van Ryn. 2l. a Princeton boy. will undoubtedly be another of Amcrica's Davis cup cubs. which are being assembled from all parts Of th" country for a European inva- sion. Five years from now they probably will fly back with the Da. wis cup.
 Manuel Alonzo and Rene I.acostc meet in the next round and it should bring out some vastly inter- "Stinc tennis.

the next Lacoste seems to play each point as though it were the last and he behind, always infinite ly careful to keep the ball in play.
 Hennessey had played Cochet two years ago at Wimbledon and was prepared, for John lost the fifth on that occasion. From the first point of yesterdays fifth set Hennesscy call ed upon all his reserve strength and ran away with the set with the loss Of but one game. Hennessey stole Cochets thunder by launching the offensive.
 l have never seen Cochet so com plctely overwhelmed in a closing set before. HenneSsey played beautiful tennis throughout the match but he rose 10 superb heights in the last set The crowds pulling for IRnnes- sey gave him a great ovation when he won.
 John Hcnnessey is light-hcart- ed, smiling fellow, but plays self confident game. Nothing upso,s him and nobody IS too big for him 10 tackle.
 Cochct was not the same player who last week turned back William Johnston 10 clinch the Davis cup for France. There was evidence Of the inevita hle let down in his game. but 1t would have taken all the best CoChct had 10 offer to have beaten the Hennesscy Of this thrilling match.
 l believe this is just a flash for Hennessey and he will not go on to ultimate honors, He may even defeat Frank Hunter in the next round, but beyond that l can not visualize his going further. He has provided great interference for Big Bill Tildon on FilIs way 10 score for America. Also Hennessey has gained a place on next years Davis cup cubs

WHAT is A BOY SCOUT?

The week of Feb. 6 to Is is the
seventeenth birthday of the Boy
Scouts of America. In it's period
of growth it has spread from the
city to practically every town
and today the enrolment runs well
into several million boys.
The training of a Boy Scout
covers the various phases of the
wood and camp craft of the pho
neer and the life-craft of good cit
izenship. Scouting is broad enough
to cover riding, swimming, camp
ing, first-aid, handicraft, obed-
fence, courtesy, thrift, kindness and
many other things. These things
all have their appeal to the
American Youth.
A Scout is taught that his hon.
or is his most precious possession.
He carries out the duties that it
imposes of his own free will and in
so doing wins the respect and con-
fidence of all people.
A Scout knows that people ex-
pect more of him than they do of
other boys and guards his behavior
so that no reproach can truthfully
be brought against the great broth
erhood to which he has pledged his
loyalty. He seeks always to make
the word "Scout" worthy of the
respect of people.
A Scout is a patriotic and is al
ways ready to serve his country at
a minutes notice. He loves Old
Glory and knows the proper forms
of respect to it. He never allows
it's folds to touch the ground. He

Paving Maintenance Cost
1920 Per Mile During 1926
Gravel Road Upkeep is From $31S
to 1882, State Highway Fig
ures for 1926 Show

Maintenance of concrete pave
ments on the Minnesota trunk
highways cost $500 for the aver
age mile during 1926, according to
figures compiled by the Minnesota
Highway department. Of this
$50 is the maintenance of the slab
tself, including filling cracks with
tar and recasting any places where
settlement of the subgrade caused
breakage. The remainder is for
repair of shoulder grades, snow
fencing, snow removal, cleaning
right of-way, and maintaining
signs, markers, culverts and bridg-
eS.
Traffic on pavements varied
from 1872 cars per day on one short
stretch, to 6,3O4, and averaged
about 1900 per day last summer.
Maintenance of pavements costs
approximately the same where
traffic is light and where it is
heavy. On gravel roads the main
tenance cost varies directly with
the traffic, and it is also higher on
the roads that are not graded and
graveled to modern standards. On
first class gravel roads, which
means roads graded to a width of
26 feet or more and surfaced with
at least 1000 cubic yards of gravel
per mile, the maintenance costs in
1926 were as follows:
Traffic under 200 cars per day,
$318.
Traffic 201-425 cars per day,
$435.
The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1927-02-17

Traffic 426-625 cars per day,
Traffic e25-s75 cars per day,
$543.
Traffic S76-125O cars persday,
$f,235.
The second class gravel roads
are included those which are not
graded to trunk highway standards
and which have less than 1900
cubic yards of gravel surfacing
per mile. The average mainten-
ance cost on these roads was as
follows: -
Traffic under 200 cars per day
$685..
Traffic under 2O1-425 cars per
day $40.
Traffic under 426-625 cars per
day $512.
Traffic under 626-s75 cars per
day $3.50.
Traffic under s76-125O cars per
day $1,042.
Traffic under 1250-1750 cars
per day $1,100.
Traffic over 1850 cars per day
$2,332.
The figure on "traffic under 200
cars per day" comes from a single
road, No. A in Koocfiching county,
which owing ITO the swampy coun-
try has required an unusually high
maintenance expenditure. The
roads with over 1850 cars per day
are roads which are in urgent need
Of paving, and the heavy traffic
has necessitated high maintenance
expenditures in an effort to keep
them passable until they can be
paved.
Maintenance costs were gener-
ally higher on second class than
on first class gravel roads, because
the latter We're not so quickly af-
fected by rains. On both classes,
however, maintenance costs were
about doubled with traffic over
875 cars per day.
The mileage of earth roads on
the trunk highway system is small
and scattered. The maintenance
was 1927 per mile where traffic
was less than 500 cars per day and
1858 where it exceeded 500 cars.
It is emphasized that both on earth
roads and on gravel roads, there
is point beyond which it is i'm
possible to keep them in good con-
dition, especially in wet weather.
It is difficult to keep gravel roads
smooth and hard when traffic ex-
ceeds 500 cars per day, while
earth cannot be kept good in
rainy weather with even light
traffic.
