US. Supreme Court to Decide
1 On Appellate Ruling That
ReckIessness Is IndiOtable

Thousands of residents Of the
District, who have been convicted
of reckless driving. may be clasSed
as criminals.
Although reckless driving has
always been regarded as a petty
traffic violation in the District.
the Court of Appeals recently
held that the offense is a crime
under common law and an In.
dictable offense. The United
States Supreme Court viii be
asked next Monday to rule on
this question.
II the supreme tribunal up
holds the ruling Of the appellate
court, persons convicted Of the
offense viii be placed in a Grim.
inal classification and as a con.
sequence viii be barred from GER
tain citizenship privileges.
For example, members of grand
and petit juries in the District
must meet certain qualifications.
A person who has been convicted
Of a common law crime, which the
Court Of Appeals has held being
nahum in sc (bad in itself) in
wolves moral delinquency" would
be barred from jury service.
Conviction of reckless driving
would also be a bar to holding po.
sitions in the District and Federal
service.
Records Of the District show
that in the fiscal year of 1927-l92S
there were 1850 cases Of reckless
driving in the Police Court and

ALLISON MAY.
REPLACE
LOT!
BY MICHAEL J. FOSTER


Wimbledon's 1880 pageant is q
matter of history now, and the
impending Davis Cup claches be
tween the United States and the
European zone winner and France
and the winner of that series are
claiming the attention of the ten
mis- world.
The cut and dried plans OF the
United States Lawn Tennis AS
sociation for recovery of the in
ternational net trophy have been
completely upset by the doings
at Wimbledon. and speculation
now is rife as to the lineup
America will send into the fray
next week in the interzone finals.
When the Americans sailed
for the campaign abroad late
in May the Davis Cup CON-
mittee's program was fairly
definitely settled.
Wilmer Allison and Johnny
Van Ryn we're to play in the
doubles and George Lott and Big
Bill Tilden were slated for the
singles. The Allison-Van Ryn com.
bination was counted on to dup
licate its 1929 triumph in the
doubles, and Tilden was expected
again to beat Jean Borotra. Two
setbacks in the two Cochet singles
matches were looked upon as
foregone conclusions.
That left the Lott-Borotra
match as the turning point Of
the series. If the youthful Chica-
goan could turn back the Bound (
ing Basque" who was looked
upon as sliding backward on the
tennis toboggan, the United
States would have the trophy
again.
But the results at VIM
bIedOn have blown those ar.
~ rangementS sky high.
Borotra, in the quarter-final
round. demonstrated once again
that he is much too good for |
George Lott. He cut out his
fancy court manner, settled down
to serious business and blew the
Chicagoan right off the court
after a faulty start in the first
set.
Jean may have slipped back.
but not enough for George to
beat him.
Contrast the result of that
match with the other quarter
final tilt between Cochet ane
Allison. The Texan. ranked only
seventh in the United States. and
rated the weak sister" Of the
American Davis Cup team, star
tied the tennis world not only by
beating the world champion, but
also by turning in his victory in
three decisive sets.
One may argue that the Cochet
who lost to Allison wasn't the
Cochet who has ruled the tennis
world with an iron hand since
Rene LacoSte adbicated his
throne; that Cochet was off form
the day he lost to the Texan.
That may be so, but COchet
himself, after the match. said
Allison had played tennis which
COchet at his best could never
have beaten. The ex-LyOnS ball.
boy was generous to the ex-
treme in his praise of his con.
querOr.
Now all the Davis Cup strategy
Of the best American minds is
scrambled up, and the question
sefore she cup committee is how
to unscramble it.
The committee must decide
whether to substitute Allison for
Lott in the singles, keeping in
mind always that such an extra
burden may materially weaken
our chance in the doubles. ,-
Also. a realignment of the
American forces would not be
based on the belief that Allison
can beat Cochet when they meet
again. but on the hope that he
might be able to turn Borotra
back. The Bounding Basque" is
too good for Lott. Perhaps Ali,
son will prove a tougher nut for
him to crack.

YACH rs FIGHT
ELEMENTS

NEWPORT, r. l., July Is
The four would-be Americas cup
defenders, Enterprise, Weetamoe,
Whirlwind and Yankee have been
the butt of much Sardonic criti-
cism in the last "a hours. The
barnacled old sea dogs who have
been predicting all along that
these million-dollar sloops would
not stand up in anything even
approaching a real blow. have
been "I-told-you-so-ing" everybody
in Newport.
In fact. some of the boys are
actually chortling over the fact
that yesterdays Is knot breeze
and boisterous sea put two of the
cup yachts out of commission
and made a complete fiasco out
of the two trial races scheduled
among the quartet.
The results of yesterdays
slashing battle with the ele-
mentS, which the elements
won hands down, only tends
to accentuate the fact that
in the construction of these
ships SeawOrthineSs and
Stanchness have been Sacri-
ficed on the altar Of speed.
However. to give our four ex-
pensive cup yachts fair break
it must be said that conditions
yesterday were exceedingly try
ing. The rough sea, combined
with a wind that was driven up
in series of Southwesterly
squalls to a velocity that prob
ably was more than 30 knots, put
terrific strain on those 168-
foot maSts.
In the other miShap yesterday,
it was the main-Sail on Harold
Vanderbilt'S Enterprise that put
the yacht out of the running.
The huge wing. made of Sudan
cotton imported from Egypt and
costing around $4,000, ripped
completely across along the first
reefing, line.
Enterprise is credited with be-
ing light weather boat and it is
not surprising that she succumbed
to the conditions she was called
upon to combat.
But Whirlwind had no ex.
cuse. She is the only one of
the four not constructed of
bronze. Her hull is made of
two thicknesses Of mahogany
on steel frames and she was
expected to be at her best in
just such weather as she en-
cOuntered yesterday.
The other heavy weather boat,
Yankee, which was again piloted
yesterday by Secretary of the
Navy Charles Francis Adams,
seemed to make better weather
of it than any of the others.
