here that Bobby Jones, its golfer, lawyer
banker and outstanding citizen, had

There was wild acclaim when word

broke out in the downtown section

Bobby has not been home since he
left Atlanta for the British amateur
and open championships-which he
won. His victory in the national open,
his second consecutive championship In
that event, added enthusiasm to city

CHALLENGES WOOD
British Girl Only Contender
for Speedboat Crown
in August Races.

BY the Associated Press.
~ ETROIT. July 12.-The sole hope
Of England in the Harmsworth
- Trophy regatta here August 20
20 and 80, Marian B. Carstairs,
is getting two speedboats in readiness
at Gravenhurst, Ontario, for the clash
with Gar Wood. who has held the
trophy since 1920. The unfortunate
death Of Mai. Sir Henry o. D. Segrave
at Windermere, England, month ago
while testing his Miss England II, left
Miss Carstairs alone as the challenger
for the trophy that symbolizes the
world speedboat championship.
Mai. Segrave was driving his craft
at 1916 miles an hour the day he was
killed, and indications are that ap-
proximately that much speed will be
needed by the winner here next month
The .Estelle ". which Miss Carstairs
used last year in an unsuccessful at
tempt to take the trophy back to Eng
land, has been reconditioned and is
said to be capable of close to 100 miles
an hour when its two 900-horsepower
Napier motors are wide open. In tests
already made on Lake Muskokta It has
been driven at 10 miles an hour, with
the motors turning at two-thirds
maximum speed.
AS was the case with Sir Henry's
proposed challenger. something of the
mysterious surrounds Miss Carstairs'
second craft, the Estelle v, which also
will be entered In the trophy race
Described as q "superspeedster, the
new boat is 2S feet long, Z feet
shorter than Estelle ". Its designer
Bert Hawker, of Gravenhurst, describes
1t as lust speed" while Estelle " be
terms speed with safety"
The Estelle v Is powered with two
12-cylinder supercharged Napier Lion
engines, each developing $500 horse.
power. How fast the craft can bt
driven with safety probably never vii
be determined, for It Is said that the
two motors have q total guaranteed
life of only half an hour If let out Il
the maximum speed. It is believed
capable Of from 10 TO lis miles ar
hour. Miss Carstairs probably will b.
at the wheel of Estelle ", while Hawkel
probably will dive Estelle v.
1t Is believed Gar Wood will have {
new Miss America in the race to de.
fend the Harmsworth Trophy.

And Rod and Stream respectfully
calls the attention of the Conservation
Department of Virginia to the arrests
in Gunston Cove and asks that they
post the creeks and coveS along the
Potomac where there seems to be
divided opinion as to the exact status
Of the law. If this Is done by the Viz
ginia Commission 1t win go long way
to avoid arrests, and after all, what the
Conservation Departments want most
Is for the people to be advised Of the
laws and not to arrest them because
they did not know the law. The laws
are not aimed at the man who takes q
couple of undersize crabs or an under
size fish, but at those who make a
practice of violating the law on
wholesale scale.
And last, but not least, fishing condi-
tons are Just about right In an direc-

about night fishing from the pier at

shallow water, about one-third Of the
way out on the pier, hardheads are
being caught in large numbers. These
fish are evidently In shallow water feed
ing on the shrimp and over the rnussel
beds. These fish are said to weigh
around pounds and are putting
up q good night. The best fishing from
the pier Is during the hours between

ITALIAN NET STARS
LEADING JAPANESE
Take Doubles and Need Only
One SinIges to CIinch
Cup Zone Match.
BY THOMAS T. TOPPING,

~ ENOA, July 12.-In q dramatic
match. which provided some OF
the best tennis doubles ever
seen in Europe, Baron Hum
bert Demorpurgo and Placido Gaslini
Of italy today defeated Takeichi Harada
and Tamio Abe Of Japan, IS, 81
SIS, Is, 6-1, to take q lead Of two
matches to one in the European zone
Davis Cup final.
Having broken even in yesterdays
opening matches, the Italians now need
to take only one Of tomorrow's two
singles to clinch the series and qualify
to play the United States for the right
to challenge the French.
Match Il Desperately Fought.
The all-important doubles match was
desperately fought. italy held match
point three times when leading. 6-5,
in the third set, but the Japanese
rallied gamely to prolong the issue to
five sets in struggle that lasted more
Baron Demorpurgo completely domi-
mated the play, his margin Of superiority
over Harada bringing the victory 70
Italy.
Demorpurgo was the hero Of the day.
although In poor physical condition and
threatened with appendicitis, the
Trieste nobleman insisted upon retain
ing his post on the doubles team despite
the advice Of italian Tennis Fedora
ton ofncials who advised him to save
his strength for tomorrow'S singles. The
baron insisted that defeat today would
mean virtually the loss Of the series.
He played the tennis Of his life, atom
ing for his unexpected reverse yester-
day at the hands Of Harada.
Service Tells Tale.
It was the baron's service more than
any other one factor that enabled Italy
Demorpurgo served o total Of IL aces
and when the Japanese did succeed
in handling his delivery their returns
often were weak defensive strokes
which the Italians were able to kill
after one or two exchanges.
Gaslini weakened badly IN the last
set and Abe's play was alternately bril-
liant and cratic throughout.
The Japanese lost big chance in the
second set when. after leading at Al
and then So, with set point twice at
the Italians to tie the score. Games
went to Tall, and in the fifteenth
Demorpurgo took his service at love, the
Italians then breaking through Harada
from Is for the set.
-Four Thousand highly excited spec
tators cheered the Italians continually
and impartially applauded the good
strokes of their opponents.
When italy swamped the invaders In
the last set to take the match the
scene resembled base ball demonstra-
flor Il, fha TToitod Sfataa more than
the tennis of Wimbledon or Forest Hills.
The enthusiasm was something which
is never witnessed in staid Anglo Saxon
countries, and both Demorpurgo and
Gaslini were nearly mobbed.
The slim margin Of seven points be-
tween the teams at the end Of the
match is evidence Of how closely the
games we're disputed, the italians scor-
Ing 261 and the Japanese, 254.
