MITCHELL is RATED AS MAN TO DEFEAT FOL
D. c. TOURNEY
To START
SUNDAY
By DAN GILL

Entries for singles in the District
Of Columbia mems tennis tourna-
ment, which starts Sunday, are to
close tomorrow at 6 p. m.
Tom Frydell, pro at Columbia
Country Club, where the tourney
will be held, is handling applica-
tions. Entries for doubles which
start Monday afternoon, close
Sunday at noon.
Action starts Sunday at 10 a. m.
with second round matches also
due to be played, if possible. Due
to the great number expected to
participate and the comparatively
small number of lockers available,
the committee wants the players
to dress at home the first few
days of the tournament.
Dooly Mitchell, the "Adonis of
the courts" will be the center of
attack as the forty-seventh an
nual tourney opens. Dooly, the
defending champion saw his
ambition realized last year, when
he won the District title for tho
first time. Last year he also won
the City Of Washington, District.
and Wardman Park tourney, the
only three in which he competed.
Seeks to Repeat
This season he has again taken
the City of Washington, and in
tends to make history repeat it.
self with another District title.
The tournament lost much Of
its appeal with the popular vet
eran. Clarence M. ChareSt, forced
to forego the event. Charest, who
10 suffering with q tennis elbow"
which ties up his muscles to such
an extent that his backhand is
useless, is a former District
champion, having won the title
On 1929.
Another former champion will
again be in the thick of action, in
the person Of Tom Mangap, jr.,
who won the title in 1924. While
Tom is not the player he was a
few years ago when he battled
several national stars, he still can
make the most Of the youngsters
wish they had drawn another op-
ponent.
Hermann Now Pro
The name Of Gene Hermann
will be among the missing this
year, since last years firSt-flight
amateur is now a professional.
In the tourney, however, will be
fighting Tony Latona, the blond
playground instructor, who will
probably go places and do things
again; Frank Shore, who was
mighty good before he went to
North Carolina University and
who returns better than ever; ir-
repressible Pat Deck; Hugh Trigg,
of the flying shirt-tails; Bud"
Markey, always a threat in any
mans tournament; Ralph Nc
Elvenny, playing in the District
tourney for the first time after
riding rough-shod through most
of the other fields; Hy Ritzenberg,
Muscoe Garnett; Hickey Willis,
another North Carolina star; Joe
Rutley, Allan Staubly. Alan Blade,
Axel Craven, Yelverton Garnett
and a host Of other toDnotchers.

DEATH LOGGED
 DOROTHY DELL
Five Times She Flirted With It Had lntui.
 ton It Was Near

Hollywood, June (uP)---. Dorothy Dell--death logged her heols. That would be m appropri- ate opitaph for tho blond, smiling 19-year.old film player who met instant death in m automobile accident after a sensational rise to stardom.
 Five times Dorothy Dell Hirted with death before she became It's victim.
 The day before her death, she mused
 "You know. they say deaths go in cycles of three. First it was Lilyan Tashman. then Lew Cody. wonder who'll be next?"
 Before the dawn of another day, her question was answered.
 Cody's death came to her with particular emphasis, for he too, made his last camera appearance, with Dorothy, in "Shoot the Works" not yet released.
 All through these years, she was pursued by the spectre of death,
 When q child on a Mississippi plantation she was attacked by a vicious dog, which her father had to kill to save her life.
 Three years ago, while in the Follies she refused an invitation to go on a party on Harry Rich mans yacht. The girl who took her place was killed in an explosion aboard the craft.
 Critically injured in an automo- bile wreck a few weeks later, she lay for two months in a Central Park hospital. Physicians despair ed of her life few months later when she was III with influenza.
 She fell and broke leg while portraying a character in the Fol- lies and for two months afterafter "sat" through her torch songs
 The body will leave tomorrow night for it's last resting place at Hattiesburg, Miss.

OLDEST PATIENT IN HISTORY

Baltimore, June 9.--(UP)-Meyer Brown, l01, who survived two major operations within month, died today after undergoing third He was believed to be the oldest patient in Ameri- can medical history to withstand even one major operation. Surgeons said the shock of the last operation was too much for Browns weakened body. The aged mans fight for life began sev- eral months ago and when the first operation was performed on May 9, new anaesthetic was used. He rallied after this and again went under the knife two weeks ago.
