and before Ogden could check the Ma
tionals they had scored five times. Myer
doubled and crossed when Tate singled.
Tate made first when Melillo fumbled,
and after Cronin had forced West at
third for the second out of the frame,
Boss. who batted for Hayes, drew pass,
which filled the sacks. Brown then
singled two runs across and swiped
second, to be in a position to count with
Boss when Judge hit for a base.
Judges hit brought Ogden to Collins
relief, and Jack easily disposed of Rice;
but Goslin, first up in the eighth, singled
and Myer' walked. so Blaeholder took
Ogden's place. The first thing Blaze
holder did was to uncork wild pitch,
which moved up both runners, so that
Goslin was able to score as West
grounded out. Then the pitcher let
Tate's roller bound off his hands for a
single, scoring Myer. Tate checked in
at second when Cronin was erased, but
with the Nationals still run shy of
tie Johnson deemed more speed than
Benny could show was needed on the
runway. so Spencer was sent in to do
the hoofing.
Gooch, who had assumed Hayes place
at third, socked single to center, but
not so deep. Spencer, however, by some
mighty Logging. made his way home,
sliding over the plate with the dead
locking run just as Terrell got the throw
from Schultz. That brought Gray to
Blaeholders relief, and the Nationals
Immediately proceeded to salt the game.
Brown walked, Judge and Rice doubled.
Goslin got his second single Of the in

TILDEN Seems
FALLING.BACK
Youth Beats Him In 3
Straight Sets In
Tournament

NEW YORK. Feb. l3.-LP1-Back
from six months in exile from the
ranks of the Simon Pure amateurs,
Big Bill Tilden has found that time
and the younger tennis generation
have stolen a march on him. His
first competition since his re~instate-
ment by the U. S. l.. 7. A., the
Heights Casino invitation, found a
slower Tilden, with rusty strokes
that failed at times to place the
ball where he wanted 1t, taking the
counts.
Against the youth, speed and pow
er of John Van Ryn, former Prince
ton captain, and youth came through
TO the surprising tune OF 6-1, Ga,
e..
The final proved that the lanky
Philadelphian has a lot Of practice
ahead OF him before he can again
qualify for top flight competition
just as the preliminary rounds show
ed him still invincible against less
er opponents. Bill had no trou-
BILE sweeping through three rounds
in one day to reach the final but
there he found his six months Of
absence Of competition had left him
too far out Of practice to cope with
the Orange, n. j.. youth who gave
I'D a chance for a Davis cup post
last spring to complete his college
course.
