SPORTS HERO OF THE WEEK
BY HENRY McLEMORE United prcsg stan C0rrcsDondcnt)

Now York, Sept 1f-(UP)- Frederick John Perry, the young Britishor who won the American National eTnnis championship by edfeating Jack Crawford yesterday, Is human and likeable.
 You should see him as he rises on hts toes to kill a high lob and nets it What he says is what a subway guard would say in similar circumstances.
 He knows the people have their eyes on him. and kinda like him, and he wants 10 give them some. thing to look at. He'll stop smack dab in the middle of an important game to ignore his opponent and smile moments long at his current baby doll, sitting in a box along. side tho court.
 Stylish Lad
 His arrival at Forest Hills yes- tarday for the final match was Q thing to make you gasp. He came in . Rolls Royce preceded by four motorcycle policemen. sirens ablast. Deep in the right hand cushion. with pleatS in his trousers, sat Frederick John. enjoying 1t all.
 Now please don't got tho idea that Frederick John Perry is an egetistical sort of guy. Coeky, yes! Sure Of himself. Immensely. He's got q right to De. Hes q sweet ton- nis player. His mannorlsms arc never offensive because he makes you think of the ordinary persons reactions to becoming q hero. Tn short. ho is q man who can strut and mako you like lt.
 And gentlemen, can he play ten. nlsl His is a game without q flaw His forehand packs lethal wallop and with 1t he can part your hair nt 20 paces. Crawford hammered at his backhand through five setS yesterday and not once did 1t show any signs of 'falterlng. Unlike most English players. Perry has q devas. ,ating smash, and a service that carries authority.
 Ills favorite stroke IS n forehand drive executed on the way to tho net, and taken early. He uses the "hatchet" or continental grip in manipulating a 13 3-4 ounce rac- duct with a square handle. The new champion Is just a shade un- der six feet tall, weighs in the neighborhood of 165, and is as trim and fast as Q greyhound.

To tho Americans 1t mattered little who won yesterdays final at tho Forest Hills West Side club. It was all foreign final for the sec ond time in tho championships 52 year history between Pery and Jack Crawford of Australia. Crawford was favored because of triumphs in the French. Wimbledon and Australian championships.
 When Perry defeated Crawford in five sets, 6-3, 1t-13, 4-6, 60, G-l, 1t was great triumph for British tennis enthusiasts, following Bri- tain's Davis Cup victory this year. It was the first time an English man won the United States title since 1903 when Hugh l.. Dough- erty lifted tho cup.
 But Saturdays American debncle was more important for United states tennis fans and for officials of tho U. S. Lawn Tennis assoc!a- ton. Perry routed Lester Stoefen of Los Angeles, and Crawford elim- innted Francis x. Shields of New York.
 These defeats impressed exports with tho fact--if the Davis Cup do- font did not----that the American brand of tennis is slipping.
 Tho U. s. l.. T. A. Davis Cup selection committee arc faced with one of tho hleakest outlooks since the trophy was put into eompeti- ton.

 Territorial Chamber Acts 1 The Territorial Chamber of Con- merce, through R. S. Bragaw, Pres ident, telegraphed Delegate Dimond as follows:
 "Tle Alaska Territorial Chamber icf Commerce unreservedly endorses Senate Joint Memorial Number flour, passed today and telegraphed Congress and the President appeal ling for exclusion of Alaska from Connery labor bill.
 Inclusion of Alaska would wipe out our great fisheries industry and shut down mines that now con- tribute ten million dollars annually to the nations gold supply.
 Tt would throw eighty per cent of Alaskan wage earners out ot employment, deprive several thou Isand residents of Washington, Ore lgon and California of seasonal en- ployment in canneries, bankrup. Territorial Government and paup- erize most of it's residents.
 Bill probably workable in popu- lcus indu st r ial communities ano needed in present situation but ab- solutely unavoidable in iron tier country like Alaska with few indus tries scattered over area of 59o 0ot square miles with coastline o1 S6,000 miles. and a population ol G0,O00."
 The Chamber urged the Delegate to see the President and various members of Congress familiar with local conditions and ask their as- sistance.
 Local Chamber Acts The Juneau Chamber of Com n1erce sent a wire similar in con tent to that of the Territorial Chamber. It presented the loca, situation, stressing the injury tha; would be done to the Alaska Ju- nsau mine and the fishing indus try if Alaska is included in the measure.

 Wiley is of the opinion that the Akron was not struck by lightning although he said it is possible a bolt did hit the ship without anyone aboard knowing it.
