This noon. the. silhouette editor goodbye, and if you have enjoyed this column half as much as the edi- tor has, why, he wishes you all a merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Otttimes, the editor was dis couraged, for the contest was in worse condition, than the sign on the window of the New Britain Fish from THE NEWSPAPER - I'll E NEW BRITAIN HERALD. It's been barrels of fun dishing out compli- ments to the many friends of the Herald, and everybody believes that old friendships were strengthened and new friends made through this contest which has the flavor of being the best local feature in years. Thousands of letters were received during the course of five months and about 1500 local names were men, toned by the editor. Some of the best "wise cracks" were handed in by children and couldn't be printed in self-respecting daily newspaper such as the Herald. From now on, the editor is going on a mental vaca- ton, finding Job for himself, pos sibly being the Mantle editor during the winter time. Over Labor Day, yours truly is going down to Ham lnonasset on his motorcycle to re- new his friendships with those who get the fullest enjoyment out of life for the least possible cost. So good bye and good luck til we meet one.
 The prize for today goes to E. S.. Cowles of 1SS Carlton street for the following letter:

Roy Wallace, Brightwood slugger

from the looks of the card there
probably will be several features.

than one knockout. Knuckle dus--

0LD-TIMERS FAV0RITES

BY WILLIAM j. DUNN
United Press staff Correspondent

FOREST HILLS, L. l., Sept. 49,
The business of teaching modern
youngsters to keep their place is be-
coming more and more difficult
William T. Tilden and Frank
Hunter, two venerable gentlemen
whose years and experience should
merit them the absolute respect of
younger men, have spent the last
five days in spanking ambitious
youths who refused them this re-
spect.
Their task is still unfinished.
At the West Side Tennis Club to-
day Tilden faced the necessity OF
subduing John Doeg, young giant
from Santa Monica, Cal, who be-
lieved that he, instead of his elder.
should be finalist in the mems ma
tional singles championships Satur-
Gay
At the same time Hunter was SIM
ilarly engaged with Fritz Mercur,
Just out of Lehigh university, who
also lacked respect for the plans OF
an older man.
Respect Ability
Neither Tilden nor Hunter ex-
pected their young opponents to
bow their heads without a fight
They realize the power behind the
racquets of the pair and regarded
both as dangerous opponents.
The old-timers we're the favoriteS,
! but there were those in the gallery
who believed that either, or both, OF
the youngsters might slip in with
a surprise victory.
Mercur relied upon a sound, we'll
balanced game for his hope OF
victory. Doeg planned to match
height and driving power with that
of the former champion in his
effort to break through to the
finals.
UpSets have been common in this
tournament. The first came only a
few minutes after the champion
ships were inaugurated last Satur-
cay when Arnold Jones eliminated
Gregory Mahgin with comparative
! ease.
Numerous UpsetS
Since that time George Lott has
bowed to Wilmer Allison; Berkeley
Bell has lost to Edward Feibleman
and Allison, in turn, has bowed to
Mercur. In addition, there have
been any number of minor sur
prises cropping up at unexpected
moments.
Hence, the chance of another-or
two more-upsets today was not
without the realm of possibility.
Besides-today is Friday the 18th
Tilden's victory in Thursdays

required four sets, the score being,

England-by the score of GA, Ga.

Tribe Draws Blanks
at Toledo

IN Times SBeci0i
TOLEDO, Sept. 13-Lefty Hall,
Tribe rookie hurler, pitched fair
ball against the Hens here Thurs
day in the wind-up Of the series
with the Hens, but his mates
couldn't get him any runs. In fact,
the Hoosiers were baff1ed by Alex
Ferguson most of the way and the
Tribes best hitters failed to find a
safe spot with their drives. Toledo
played errorless ball.
Weakens in Eighth
After the Hens bounced on him
for one run on a double and triple
in the first round, Hall settled down
and held the locals runless until
the eighth, when they launched a
strong attack and scored three runs
on five hits.
Three Toledo double plays helped
Ferguson blank the Indians. In the
sixth inning two Tribe FASTENERS
were caught at the plate, Connolly
on a grounder by Hall and Judd was
doubled up trying to score after
Brown shared Warstler's fly in short
right field.
Wingard Shines
Toledo collected twelve hits off
Hall, Wingard polling three to lead
the attack. Of the Indian hits,
Connolly got two, Riddle one and
Judd one.
The contest was run off in swift
time, requiring only one hour
twelve minutes. The series of four
games was divided. 1t was the last
meeting of Indians and Hens this
season. The Indians also have
played out their string with Co.
lumbuS.

thinks the fast ball pitching Of
Grove and Earnshaw is likely to
