TILDEN BEATS
EUROPEAN ACE
in EASY STYLE
BY L. S. CAMERON
UNITED Press Sports Editor

NEW YORK. Feb. 10. U.P)-The
Bill Tilden-Karl Kozeluh "world S
indoor professional tennis cham
pionship. > moved into its second
phase at Baltimore today after a
spectacularly successful start in New
York last night.
Tilden beat Kozeluh in their first
meeting, Ga. 6-2, Ga. T1lden, re-
Gently turned professional after a
decade at or near the top OF the
amateur ranks, proved himself a
complete master of Kozeluh, the
Csechoslovakian ace, long regarded
as the leading professional OF ba-
rope if not of the world.
The play was before a brilliantly
attired crowd of nearly $4,000. The
receipts were $4,000.
While Kozeluh gave Tilden an
earnest battle, the contest was never
close. Tilden won repeatedly On ms
cannonball service and broke
through Kozeluh's serve just often
enough to cut the contest short.
The one flaw in Tilden S play
was in his back hand stroke from
ire base line. Repeatedly he drove
into the net in attempting to drop
the ball just over it, Tilden was also
superior in his general court tactics,
although Kozeluh appeared to have
the greater speed. He scored more
difficult points than Tilden who vas
content to allow some Of the harder
ones to go by untouched.
The second scheduled match be-
tween Francis T. Hunter OF New
Rochelle, N. Y, and Emmett Pare
Of Dayton, Ohio, was cut short to
allow the main match TO go on.
Hunter was leading 6-2, 5-5 when
the play was halted. In doubles,
Tilden and Hunter beat Kozeluh
and Pare, 81, GA.

Apparently this is good idea. Children's pas

izations to determine.
But Redwood Falls does need an automobile park

to expect to find adequate parking space in reasonable
distance from the stores.
It has been observed that with the increasing trade
from the outlying territory, traders often find it pro-
blem to park anywhere in the business section night
Until such plan does materialize local merchants
and residents might extend to visitors the courtesy of
letting them park in the principal Streets by either
