SLUMP HELPS CLEANERS,

Rush Held Due to Work Seek ers
Improving Appearance and
Decline in Prices.

The business depression has been Q
boon to the dry cleaning industry, the
National Association of Dyers and
Cleaners yesterday informed the Presi-
dents Emergency Committee for En-
ployment.
So large is the demand for this work
Paul c. Trimble, the associations
managing director, said in a report to
Fred C. Croxton, acting chairman Of
the Presidents Committee, that the
organizations school at Silver Spring,
Md, is unable to supply the demand
for experienced craftsmen at wages
from $35 to $50 . week.
Trimble advanced the theory that
the rush was due to job seekers max
ing every effort to spruce up their
appearances and to the sharp decline in
prices during the past year.
There are 1000 dry cleaning estab-
liShments in the United States, employ
ing not less than 100, 900 persons, Trim
tle said. He estimated the industry
takes in 100000 annually.

over which the expedition is proceeding
is between 3 and miles, higher than

TENNIS WORLD
WATCHES VINES
CLIMB TO TOP
BY L. =. CAMERON
United Press Sports Editor

NEW YORK, Aug. II. U.P)-Just
about all the noise that is being
made by men tennis players of the
United States these days originates
with a young Californian whose
name S Ellsworth Vines. He is 6
feet inches and weighs only $50
pounds, but the crashes that his
racquet are making are being heard
from coast 10 coast. It's certainty
that one day they will be heard
around the world.
Vines came east last summer
and scored surprising victories over
frankie Shields and Frank Hunter.
Then his play went away from him.
He was beaten badly by Sidney
Wood, and that defeat, coupled with
his spotty play late in the summer.
left him without any consideration
.or q place on the United States
Davis cup team.
The U. S. team came home from
Europe beaten by England in the
challenge round. The second
guessers said at once that Vines
should have been a member of that
team. It now seems that they were
right, for Vines play in the early
summer tournaments has been little
short of sensational. His latest con-
quest was M the play for possession
OF the famous Seabright Bowl. He
met Johnny Doeg, national cham
pion, in the final of that tourna-
ment, spotted his rival two sets and
went on to capture the next three
sets to annex the title.
Vines will be an odds-on favorite
TO win the national championship,
and if he does, his selection as a
member of the Davis cup team of
1882 will be certain. Sidney Wood
and Frankie Shields had been ex-
pected to land the singles berths of
that team. What the selection
committee does in this matter will
be an interesting development.
No player since Tilden was in
his prime ever has boasted a fore
hand smash that could be COM
pared to that OF Vines. 1t has tre-
mendous speed and rises almost
none at all. 1t is his one great YEA
pom, but Vines is a player well
vcrsed in all departments of play.
