Americas Davis Cup tennis team

challenge round and will meet
France for the historic trophy on

The youngsters from across the
Atlantic cleared the last hurdle as
they eliminated Italy in the inter-

once more making a dramatic en-

singles assignments against Henri
Cochet and Jean Borotra with John
Van Ryn and Wilmer Allison pair
ing in the doubles against a French
team that may be composed Of JOG
cues Brugnon and Christian Bous-

have little hope Of winning the
doubles and prefer to save Cochet
and Borotra for singles duty alone.
The American team completed its
conquest Of Italy yesterday, dividing
the last two singles matches TO make
the final score four to one. Lott
swept aside Goergio de Stefani in
straight sets. 6-3. 6-l, 6-3. but Al

BY GAYLE TALBOT JR-
Associated Press Sports Writer

DALLAS, July le.-P-Profes-
sor Derril Pratt. regarded as one
Of the shrewdest. most successful
managers the Texas League has
known. Notwithstanding he has
never won a pennant, will have an
opportunity to shift his allegiance
after the current season.
Whether the veteran second
baseman will hearken to the Of
fers Of other league club owners
or will prefer to stick with his
first managerial love. the Waco
Cubs, remains to be seen. His six
Eear term will be up in September.
1t Is known that at least n Tex
as League owner would like to get
Pratt's name on a contract. Waco
undoubtedly will try to hold him.
without Pratt at the helm, there
is q grave doubt that Waco would
have retained its Class A franchise
for six years. His uncanny judge
ment Of young players and his
ability to whip them into big league
timber has kept a club In a city
where fan support has at times
been almsot negligible. Not only
has Waco been favored with a
colorful, hustling ball club
for six years, but the treasury
actually has shown a profit each
and every season.
Bonus on Sale
Although the point has been
disputed. the general impression Is
that Professor Pratt has received a
substantial bonus on his sale 70
the big leagues. III so. he must have
done very we'll financially. Among
his products, all Of whom brought
good prices. were Willis Hudlin

70 get IN there himself and hustle

BRONC RALLY
BEATS LA FERIA
(SDecial 10 The Herald


LA FERIA, July 2l.-With two
down in the ninth inning and the
score tied gall, the Brownsville
Broncs staged a strong rally 70
punch over four runs, beating the
La Feria Boosters 6-2 in an exciting
Valley league game here Sunday.
The teams had waged a nip-and-
tuck battle all the way and B. van
Pelt had the Brownsville batters on
his hip up until the last out.
In the ninth frame. Rocha, the
first man up. flied out to third
base. Ramos got first when hit by
the pitcher. Lesser struck out. SAL
mas singled and Chapa followed
him vita a double. King got one at
error by the pitcher. Then Librado
Perez cleaned UP with a singing
single. Wood flew out TO second
base TO end the fray.
Perez, playing right field, and
Lesser, on third. made sensational
catches. Perez travelled far back to
take a hot drive over his shoulder
in the ninth inning. Lesser also
sprinted backward to sack up a deep
pop fly that 1t didn't seem possible
for him to get.
Chapa hurled good ball and his
war club had much to do with the
victory. B. Van Pelt. one Of the best
curve ball pitchers in the league
hurled great ball until he weakened
in the ninth frame.
Next Sunday the Broncs take on
