PARIS. July 26.-tP-Another
1880 Davis cup plum dropped into
the ~outstretched French hat today
when Henri Cochet and Jacques
Brugnon defeated Wilmer Allison
and John Van Ryn in four sets, 6-3,
7-5, 10, o.. The victory made the
score for France two TO n and II
sent further into the shadowy dis

silver bowl would cross the ocean

If il is to 90 back. Big Bill Tilden
must achieve the almost impossible
TO beat Henri Cochet tomorrow and
George Lott must tame Jean Borot-
IA. American partisans were hope
full and doubtful in the same
breath but a good majority Of the
French tennis followers began their
celebration tonight.
The superiority Of Cochet and
Brugnon in what probably was the
vital match of the 1880 Davis cup
tourney became apparent early in
the first set. They a out the first
three games easily, placing careful
ly and safely from the net while
both Allison and Van Ryn were
nisjudging distances, netting and
over-driving incrucial moments.

Allison broke through 10 win his
own service in the fourth game.
The Americans took advantage Of
Cochet's errors to win the fifth and
sixth went to Van Ryn on his SER

Cochet's momentary lapse ended.
The next three games and set went
easily into the French pocket.
Americas big chance came in the
second set and for a time it seemed
that Van Ryn and Allison had

Van Ryn volleyed an unreachable
shot TO win the game.
In the tenth and critical game
the American squirt died. Van Ryn's
lobbying failed. The deadly French
advance TO the net Of Cochet and
Brugnon had an easy march TO the
end Of the frame.
The Texas-Princeton pair had it
pretty much their own way in the
set that followed. a set marked by
Brugnon's only failure to win his
own service.
Americans Storm
The last set found the smiling
and ~rejuvenated Brugnon on the
court doing miracles with the rae
cuet and ball. revived by the ten
minute rest between sets. It was a
French walkaway for the first five
games, then the Americans stormed

Billings, Aug. 5.-The price of
gasoline has been reduced at all
stations in and adjacent to Bill
ings when oil companies operating
here followed the lead of a local
refiner and dropped to 23 cents
per gallon, a slash of 31s cents.
The reduction will not apply to
nearby towns, it was announced.
Managers of all oil companies
operating here stated that the
price cut was made to face COM

ny on Thursday, July "a, announe-
ed the 23-cent price and since then
has been selling at the lower fig

The Standard Oil company and

the price of Ethyl gasoline at 26

said, always maintain the Scent
difference between the brands.

lowing the general cut. that it was
not likely that the committee
would go ahead with the project
as the goal of lower-priced gaso-
