 New York, May g--(UP)--Wil. liam T. Tilden has struck q mourn ful note in discussing "our" chances in thls years Davis cup play. Mr Tllden, who was tho U. $. cup mainstny from 1920 Co lg27, cornored by reporter, led give two cents for our chances to win back the cup, Ho wouldn't put out much more than that by way of wager thnt w0 would win tho inter-z0ne finals.
 Now MT Tilden knows great deal more about tennis than any person whose name readily comes to mind. but, oven to those who know nearly nothing his remarks stand as amng tho most amazing sports phophoaios of the year.
 Reduced to essentials MT Tll- don's prediction is that while the United States may have at least an outside chance of beating Canada and thus gain tho interZone final, our boys cannot prevail against tho winner of tho European gone ollminationa.
 Probabilities
 Unloss there is a distinctly gcrewy development 0versoaa tho European zone hnalist will be either Japan or Australia. If Jarl Satoh had not lonpod Into tho sea Japan would stand out as tho most likely, With Satoh dcnd, Japan certainly docs not rank above France These two, along with Australia, form Just about all there ia overseas fexcepting, of course, Great Britain. which win defend tho cup in tho challenge round) and from thIs distance, without rcs0rtIng 10 my waving of spnnglcd flags, it would seem that tho U. <. would havo m ut least 50-50 chance to 20 Into the final teat with England.
 For all that Lester Htoefen, who for months has been America's k great hope, has suffered q relapse, tho combined power Of n squad which could include Soefen, Lott, Shields. Wood, Allison and Grant is just a bit too much to dismiss with a two-cent bot.
 Tho. trick of tho American forces, led by Dick Williams, tho -plnyinR captain, will be to And it's best front from m as- sortment of players, each Of whom has n definite fault. If Stocfcn comes back to tho form he dis- played during the flag end of the 1888 season and during the past winter, and if tho right selections nro made farther along the line, America will have squad which should be a betting fnvOrite to beat any of the European con tenders.
 Getting past England will bc somethin gclsc, but even this does not stand out aS decided im- probability.

 It was unfortunate for boxing that Hoyt was too big and busy q man to take over tho garden reina when the master manipulator died. He would have made an ideal pro- motor.

Patience Exhausted

Patience Exhausted
 Hoyt's passing from tho sports business means that he finally has given up on boxing, for 1t was the ring game that brought him into 1t in a professional way.
 Rickard 10 years ago sought to build the garden with a stock pro- motion scheme. and, when that failed, made many n disappointing trip to Wall street before pumping into Hoyt.
 Dick told me of his first meeting with old Tegde only the other day. He long had been m admirer Of the Yukon alumnus and said he got . real thrill out of his call.
 Hoyt, then only 25 and rapidly rising to the peak he struck just before the crash, financed the gar- den in an hour or two on the tele- phone. He made rich associates and friends come in. Most of them had only vague idea of what he was talking about that afternoon when six hundred millionaires, of whom Rickard boasted, were born.
 Hoyt organized the spiffy little Madison Square Garden club with in the confines of the $3,000,0 900 layout at Eighth avenue and Forty ninth street.

Support Never Lacking
 He was as pround of the garden as Rickard, and remains the larg- est individual stockholder and chairman of the board to this day. out of the Hoyt- Rickard combina- ton also came the Boston garden.
 Hoyt supported Rickard unhesi- fatinRly while the master promoter was guaranteeing gladiators huge sums. More recently he did not falter when William r. Carey, suc- cessor to Rickard. decided to throw up the stadium and Miami and the huge bowl fin Queens.
 When Col John Reed Fitzpatrick replaced Carey last fall, theer were reports that James J. Johnston would be busted as ringmaster. The garden had lost much of it's pugii- istic prestige. There was talk that the beak busting privilege would be leased.
 We went to Hoyt for the low down.

 MT. Strelkoff's Russian numbers with their humorous and engaging predatory explanations have been very well received in all the major cities of the Pacific Coast, if the unanimously favorable reports ln the principal newspapers of the cities bear any weight.
 The program Monday night will be composed largely of classical numbers, interlarded with a few well-known semi popular selec- tions such as "Old Man River" and The Volga Boat Song"
 He will be accompanied again by Mrs. Trevor Davis, who assisted at the previous program.
 On the first page of MT. Strel- koff's autograph album, which con- tains the signatures of m n y prominent and even famous peo- pie, appears a sketch of Mickey Mouse from the pen of Walt Dis ney, with the best wishes of that famous screen cartoonist.

Nelson Company Reports All Recommendations
 Being Carried Out

At the city council meeting last light, it was decided to purchase 'or the sum of S200 a strip ot property from G. E. Krause at the corner of l2th and E. Streets, part of which is already used as a street lnder rental from the owner.
 A contract was let to Ed. Chris ensen for the hauling of 500 yards )f coarse rock to fill in the al- ley between Ninth and Tenth treets, west of E. The high bid- fer was A. E. Kasalica with a ten- fer of 30 cents per yard.
 Award was made to G. E. Krause n the purchase of 200 feet of 12- nch concrete pipe and 100 feet of '4-inch concrete pipe upon the withdrawal of Rice and Ahlers, who were S688 under the local manu- acturer with a bid of $533.95. Rea- on for the withdrawal given was that local producers with payrolls should get preference wherever pos sible. MT. Krause agreed to fill the order at the price quoted by Rice and Ahlers.
 The report of the Nelson Water Company brought out that the company was fulfilling in detail the recommendations of the Water Committee, with the exception of installation of a pump, which it showed would be unnecessary.
 Upon Councilman George Rice's motion that the new fresh water, high-pressure fire plug near the Nelson tank be painted neither red nor green, but yellow, Councilman Wallis George seconded the color but offered the amendment that it be called Rice Hydrant.
 Two ordinances received their second readings and were passed, the first dealing with the elimina- tion of radio interference, and the second reducing the local dog tax.
 s. s. Schedule Protested
 A telegram from Thomas B. Will son, General Manager of the Alas ka Steamship Company, was read. In response to a protest wired the company by Mayor Goldstein with regard to the arrival of boats in the middle of the night, MT. Will son said that study of the sched- ule would be made, and any possi- ble changes would be put into eff feet.
 The council postponed the bond election until further notice, as the Public Works Administration has yet to set up definite regula- tions governing the proposed pro- jectS here.

short feature motion picture will
be the screening of La Cuca-

newly formed Pioneer Pictures,
and the first film to be made by
the new Technicolor process that
reproduces with absolute fidelity
every color, tint and shading.
This will take place at the

are foremost in the world of art
