 If Rubber Bumper Used

Paris, Aug. q (P - Auto colli- sions of the future may be silent if a new French pneumatic rubber bumper comes into widespread use.
 It consists of a curved steel bar to which is attached a cylindrical tube. The surface of the bumper is molded and it appears like the tread of an automobile tire.
 The inner tube is inflated at about the pressure of a balloon casing.

Have you seen the whale?" has become a general inquiry here since the famous whale of San Clemente arrived in his special car and was placed on exhibition on the railroad siding at Elm street. Few persons, even those living in seaboard cities. have ever seen one of the gigantic creatures at close range. The pres ent opportunity 10 see one has created widespread interest.
 The whale is not only one of the largest and finest specimens of the finback variety ever captured. but it has been perfectly preserved and shows no signs of the terrific bat tie it gave 10 it's captors. More than 3S barrels of embalming fluid were used to prepare the whale for the long transcontinental tour,

 After passing his tests the prince will be a full-fledged pilot, but even tken he can only take up his friends.
 At the moment the prince is aC- commodated with an airplane of the Royal Air Force, piloted by Squad ron Leader Don.

RED HAS BIC OFFER
TO Join PRO TEAM
Would Have Been Happy if
Mississippi Aggies Had
Turned Him Down.

N IEW YORK, July II Opal
M Talk around New York is that
affairs so worked out with re-
spect to Red" eagle that he
was in position of indifference
whether or not his JOB as assistant
coach at the Mississippi A. and M. was
sanctioned by the trustees.
In fact, the gossip is that he had
lust as lief been turned down, This
because of a fiattering offer to play
in the backheld of the New York
Giants, one of the leading pro foot
ball teams of the country.
Giants is still possible. At least no
word has come concerning the former
Army players final intentions.
II appears now that Hugh Critz,
president-elect of the institution at
Gulfport, was bombarded with protests
from members of the Southern AsSo-
citation of Colleges against the action
of authorities of his institution in sign
ing eagle But, while numerous. none
of the protests contained definite
charges of strength sufficient to make
Reds" association with the college
athletic staff inadvisable.
Personally" DR.. Critz is reported
as saying. Il see no use in raising all
this trouble simply because man got
married"
Reports have it that Hertz Murrell,
now a second lieutenant in the Army,
who is spending his vacation as an IRON
worker, has also been approached by
professional foot bail interests.
But the gradually accommodating testi-
mony of college grads who have gone
in for the mercenary game is hardly Of
nature to encourage young men to
abandon their professions for the tar
nished spangles of the pro foot ball
circuit.

ITALY and Japan start their Davis
Cup matches in the European
zone final at Genoa today, con-
tinuing tomorrow and Sunday.
The United States team plays the
winner. The rule says, in effect, that
four members of a cup team must be
named 10 days before the matches, or
as soon as a country learns which its
opponent is to be. That would give
the United States Davis Cup commit
tee until Monday to pick its team. The
rule does not require a country TO
name any order of play. 1t may play
two. three or four of the team it picks
in an order to be announced just be-
fore the matches.
These matches between the United
States and the winner of the European
zone will decide the team which will
challenge France for the cup. The
matches are known as the inter zone
final, and will be contested on July
ID, 10 and 20.
May Change Lineup.
Inc challenge and hnal round VIII
be played in the Roland GarroS Sta
dunn, named for the war ace, which
is at Auteuil, about 20 miles outside
of Paris. To name the team, if it
wins, for these matches, the United
States Committee will have until July
81, and it need not be the same team
which plays the Italy-Japan winner.
The United States should be able to
get by these first matches without the
active aid of William T. Tilden, I'd.
Big Bill, therefore, will have until July
20 to make up his mind as to whether
or not he will play against France.
The challenge round will be played on
July IS, 81 and %.

MAY MEET PEAKE
IN EARLY BATTLE
metropolitan FinaIiStS o
Last Year VIII Compete
in Bethesda Tourney.

~ ARLES A. FORT, horse
shoe champion of Wash
ington, who recently be-
came a resident of Glen
Echo, has picked, perhaps, the
toughest preliminary of The Stars
Metropolitan District tournament
to do his early pitching. Fort
will compete at Bethesda, where
he is likely to encounter none
other than the Metropolitan
champion, Willard E. Peake.
However, it is far from a certainty
that either win win the Bethesda title
There are several other formidable
pitchers in that dourishing suburb.
Fort and Peake are old rivals. For
tune favored the tall Bethesdan when
he defeated Fort, Government scien-
fist, in the final match of the Mary
land-Virginia- Washington play-of last
year Before taking on Peake. Fort
played a gueling match with Alexan-
der Kirchner, the Northern Virginia
champion, and it was fatigue late in
his battle with Peake that decided the
issue. There was little doubt that Fort
was Peake's equal under ordinary con-
ditions. Both displayed marked game
ness, which is more important virtue
in horseshoe competition than the I'M
initiate might think.
Stamina played a large part in the
determining of every major champion
last year. In each State play-off the
victor was the man who drew the bye
in three-man final.
BROOKE GRUB, manager of the
~ Silver Spring Giants, has taken
charge of Silver Springs horse
shoe tournament, which means that it
will be well handled. Brooke is one
of the most enterprising sports pro-
motors about Washington, and he is
bent upon having large entry at Sill
yer Spring. where more than $50 pitch
ed last year.
However, Grubb isn't likely to beat
the 1929 entry which included many
Washingtonians, now barred from the
Maryland section of the tournament.
He will be assisted by Townsend
Howes of the Maryland News editorial
staff.
Grubb may extend the entry deadline,
which has been set for next Wednesday.
Chairmen Of Maryland and Virginia
preliminaries have this privilege.
EMMETT PAUL SAUNDERS, chair
IL man at Lyon Park, observes that
his community isn't horseshoe
minded but Just the same he has an
entry of 80. which is uncommonly large
for village of Lyon Parks dimensions.
Horseshoe pitching is extremely con-
tagious. as it were. What started out to
be a friendly match between two play
ers resulted in stable tournament in
many instances last year, and some OF
the hottest preliminaries were in COM
munitieS which had made no plans for
entering the Metropolitan event.

yesterday that the Davis Cup could
not be regained without Tilden and
hoped he would play.
Others connected with tennis are
more optimistic. They also hope Til
den will play, because they consider
that the team would be infinitely
stronger with him, but they give it a
chance without him. They point out
that Cochet has not been going well
this season and has been beaten several
times. Lyttleton Rogers beat him early
in the year: Borotra beat him and
Allison beat him. They think there is
a chance one of the youngsters may
6eat him in the Davis Cup play, and
also think there Is a chance that
Allison and some other member of the
team may beat Borotra The United
State is confident of winning the
doubles.
Allison Has Big Task.
In the interzone final the commit
tee might play Allison and Van Ryn
in the doubles and Doeg and Lott in
the singles, although, against the
French, Allison almost undoubtedly will
play in the singles. The object in not
playing him in the singles earlier will
be to save him as much as possible, al
though he may be played there too.
The United States singles champion
ship, September to 13, at Forest Hills,
should carry the interest of Wimbledon,
because the English, French and Au-
stralians all are expected to send their
best players over. There may be some
team matches before the championship,
The woman's championship will, it is
believed. also be better than usual, as
the best woman players in Europe have
planned to take part. This is big
tennis year
One foreign player who should surely
attract attention is G.. Lyttleton Rogers,
the IriShm>n. He stands 6 feet 7
inches and weighs about 200 pounds.
