rounds. Little Bill Johnston, in 1927 was rapidly on the decline, just as Jean Borotra was slipping so that the American defense against the French was put square ly on the shoulders of. Tilden.
 Big Bill beat Cochet in the open ing day of singles, while Johnston dropped his match to Lacoste. Til- den then paired with Hunter to capture the doubles, but the strain of two hard days play r~oVed too much, and he took only one set from Lacoste in the singles, after which Cochet won the deciding match from Johnston
 Tilden was 34 in 1927, Cochet only 30 this year Big Bill, too, was up against stiffer competition. The two young Frepchmen were at their peak. Cochet had beaten Til- den the year before, and Lacoste had won our national singles cham pionship.
 Cochet, though not at his best, was convincingly superior to the determined pair of young English men, Bunny Austin and Fred Per- ry, who have yet to scale any such world heights as the French chal- lengers of 1927 had attained on both sides of the Atlantic.
 Tilden probably has made up- wards of $50,OOO since he turned professional, but it now appears he lost this year his best post graduate opportunity to bring the Davis Cup back to the United States. With Big Bill in the line up, playing the way he has in pro company this year, America would have had little difficulty reaching the challenge round and been at least an even choice to break through the subnormal French defense.
The Daily Alaska empire., 1931-08-21

Unless the great Rene Lacoste stages a successful comeback for 1882, the French Davis Cup forces minus Henri Cochet, will look like Hamlet without the celebrated Dane.
 Cochet has felt the strength of inducements to turn professional If his performances against England in the challenge round had been planned, they hardly could have be3n better calculated to make the great little Frenchman a drawing card, if and when he goes on a world tour with Big Bill Tilden.
 They can bill Henri as the French Davis Cup team" without much fear of contradiction.

AMERICAN FLAG 0N
 THE NORTH ATLANTIC
 THREATENED, OFFICIAL

NEW YORK, Sept. 2. (P-For- nal protest against the Dollar Line-Chapman bid for the Unit ed States Lines, warning that the American flag is threatened on the North Atlantic, has been made to the U. s. Shipping Board oy P. A. Franklin, preident of the International Mercantile Marine Company.
 In a letter addressed to s. o. Connor, chairman of the Board, and made public, Franklin set forth several reasons why the Dollar-Chapman bid must be re- fused. The principle criticisms ot the bids are as follows:
 It was made on August 17, four days after the expiration of the time for bids set by the shipping Board.
 It does not provide actual cash.
 It agrees to five SailingS of the Ieviathan a year, when the max in1um required by the board is seven.
 It does not stipulate into what service it will place the two new ships now being built at Camden, eiving the group power to operate them in competition with other American ships.

BLAZING MYSTERY VESSEL, 20 CREW,
 0FF WASH. COAST

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 2 (P III A fiercely blazing mystery ship, her crew of 20 men in imminent peril of their lives lay three miles off Long Beach, Washington, near the entrance to the Columbia river.
 Mantelled as she was in a huge cloud of smoke which surrounded her hull and toppled her masts, her identity could not be learned.
 Two coast guard cutters and life saving crews from North Cover at Willapa Harbor and the Westport station near Aberdeen were rushing to her assistance, hoping to rescue the crew before the flames made rescue impossible. Meager reports that trickled through from the first to the sight of the burning ship said that she was sailing schooner of approximately 22OO gross tons.
 She was not equipped with wire less, and the flames had evidently gained great headway before the distress of the vessel was observed.
 Effort of the marine department of the Chamber of Commerce. in surance companies and the Asso- ciated Press to identify the strick- en vessel proved unavailing.
 As far as is shown by records at the marine department there is no vessel of that type in the vicinity of the disaster.
