VETERANS NOT ID
 PLAY IN MATCHES
Tlden and Hunter Not to Figure
 in Davis Cup Tennis Play

New York, June Is N-Before sailing for Europe, George Lott, third ranking tennis player in tho United States, delivered himself of the opinion that neither Biz Bill Tilden nor Frank Hunter will be called upon to help the American Davis Cup team in the inter-zors finals at Paris or the challenge round against France in the same city.
 A few hours before he went aboard the Homeric last night. Lott said he did not believe Hunter would figure in American Davis Cup plans at all. and Tilden only if he won the British championship at Wimbledon or does something else sensational"
 We young fellows can lose as we'll as they can," he added. and the lickinss may do us lot of good"
 The other young fellows" Lott referred to were John Hennessey. John Van Ryn and Winner Allison. who saw to it that the United States safely survived American zone com- petition while Lott was completing his career at the University of Chi. cago. Allison, Van Ryn and Hem nessey already are in Europe and Lott plans to join them at Vim. bledon.
 Although fit as q fiddle" as he put it, Lott said he needed lots of hard tennis. T probably will have the shirt licked off of me at Vim. bledon but by the time Davis Cup play starts I ought to be playing close to my best" he observed.
 Lofts fine physical condition car be attributed to the fact that he hai been playing shortstop on Chicago baseball team as well as being that university's principal standby. ir tennis.

KEYES WOULD RUSH
START ON PLAZA
Senator Will Seek Funds
From Congress for Pre-
Iiminary Work.

A start may be made this year on
preliminary work for enlargement Of
the Capitol grounds If plans now being
considered are carried out.
The project was authorized by Con-
gress after the last deficiency appropri-
alton bill had been completed, so that
the initial allotment of funds could not
be obtained before adjournment Chair
man Reyes of the public buildings and
grounds committee, who Steered the
plaza improvement measure through the
Senate, said yesterday he was consider
ing the possibility Of putting through
joint resolution at the coming session
to permit use of small amount of
money to clear of two squares of the
plaza facing the Capitol
1t is not certain whether this will be
possible, but if it should be done. It
would provide for removal Of several
units of the Government hotels between
Delaware and New Jersey avenues, B
and c streets Occupants Of these
buildings could be provided for in other
units of the Government Hotels nearer
Union Station, which are not to be
disturbed Immediately, Senator Reyes
pointed out
Senator Keyes indicated he was
anxious to avoid delay until next
year in beginning the project. and II
the two squares fronting on the Capitol
could be cleared off this year it would
expedite the landscape treatment of
that portion of the Plaza early next
year.
