KANSAS CITY, May 26.-Credited
with victories in two Of the five Amcri-
can zone Davis cup semi-tlnal matches
here with the Chinese squad, the United
States team today had an opportunity
to eliminate the tennis aces OF that
country from competition for the world
title.
American players had little difficulty
in defeating the Chinese In the singles
yesterday.
John Hennessey of Indianapolis, beat
Gordon Lum, captain of the Chinese
team, 6--3, 6--1, 60.
George Lott of Chicago used his
powerful drives TO defeat Paul Kong of
Shanghai, in love sets. 60. 60, 60.
The ease with which the Americans
won caused william T. Tilden, Ameri-
can captain, to assure Wilbur r. Coen.
jr.. Kansas City schoolboy, that he
would be given a chance In the doubles
today. Coen, who Is 16 years old.
would be the youngest player ever used
in American Davis cup championship
play.
Coen's debut in his home town will
climax upward of two years of train
ing under Tilden, who frequently has
said he believes the youngster some
day may wear the worlds tennis
crown"
While the alignment today calls for
Tilden and Coen to face Lum and Kong,
there was a possibility Lock Wei. man
ager OF the Chinese team, would re-
place Lum. who recently injured an

CAMBRIDGE. Mass, May 26 (H1.-
It's an old saying with the Yankees
that las Ruth goes, so goes the team" "
Eric Krenz, 22-year-old Babe Ruth OF
track and field sports, seems to WELD
a similar influence upon Leland Stan
ford's mighty team, favorite today to
romp OFF with the fifty-second inter
collegiate A. A. A. A. championships
for the second straight year and take
the historic title back to the Pacific
Coast for the seventh time in eight
seasons.
Eric, the curly y~haired sophomore who
losses the 16-pound shot and discus
around with the same reckless abandon
that Ruth hits home runs, was in rec
ord-breaking form in yesterdays trials,
from the moment he stepped out on the
Harvard turf to rurl the shot to new
record of so feet / inch until, few
hours later, he wound up busy day
by tossing the discus new record dis
tance of 154 feet IL inches
"As Krenz goes, so goes Stanford"
Not the Whole Team.
Eric sets the pace, but he isn't the
whole team by any means. Twelve, and
possibly l3, others stood ready today to
contribute to Stanford's score. which
experts expected to produce one-sideo
victory for the Cardinals as well as tc
establish the highest point total In al
least 10 years, If not 80 years.
1t seemed probable to observers that
Stanford. in spite of keen opposition
from Yale, Southern California, Har-
ward and Cornell, would equal or sur
pass the Appoint modern mark, set BY
Cornell In 1918, and possibly threaten
the all-time high mark Of 81 points
registered by Pennsylvania in 1899.
Yale, the Eastts only hope, and Z
slim one, surprised even its ardent sup
porters by sticking close to Stanford in
the qualifying competition yesterday
which cut the entry list OF some SOC
performers down to 106 in 13 of the Ii
championship events. The Cardinals
margin over the Ellis was only Is to II
in the number of qualiiers, but the pro-
portion of scoring power embodied ir
the Stanford group was much higher
than that In the Blue Brigade. There
was q wider gap between Stanford''
scoring machine and other outstanding
squads, such as those representing Cor
nell, Harvard and Southern California
