WIMBLEDON, Eng, July 81. UP
Americas hone of regaining the
Davis cup were blasted to bits to-
day when Wilmer Allison of Texas,
and then Donald Bulge of Califor-
mia, were defeated in the opening
day of play in the challenge
round.
A wildly cheering crowd of l5,-
600, which packed every seat and
every inch of standing room about
/ Wimbledon's famed center court,
saw Bunny Austin rally to humble
Allison. 60, 20, 4-6, 6-3, 7-5, and
Fred Perry rout the youthful and
inexperienced Bulge, 60, 6-8, 6-3,
Ga.
The clean sweep gave England g
commanding 20 lead and the AM
orleans, to win, must take the
doubles match on Monday and the
concluding two singles engage
ments on Tuesday, in which Perry
will oppose Allison and Bulge will
play Austin.
Perry's win was expected, for he
is the No ! player in the world,
and no one looked for the red
headed California youngster max
ing his first venture in internation-
al play. to whip him. But Allison's
defeat was severe disappoint-
ment. Had he whipped Austin.
America would have had an even
chance, for the English doubles
team is weak, and Bulge had mas
/ tered Austin in the semi-final
round of the England tourna-
ment.
Nearly Worn Out
Allison only increased the disap-
pointment of his defeat by the
narrowness by which he missed
victory. After dropping the first
set, the Texan blazed his way
through the next two for a 81
lead. And he started the fifth and
final set magnificently. He swept
the first game at love, and seemed
to hold a clear edge over the firing
Englishman. This edge seemed
even more pronounced when he
took a 81 lead, then one of 4-3
and finally of 5-4.
In the tenth game of the final
set Allison stood within two points
of winning, for he took 30-15 lead
on Austin's service. But he missed
his chance when he muffed an easy
kill and the Englishman, thankful
for this reprieve, went on to make
it full pardon.
Bulge made a gallant but futile
stand against Perry. The English
man won the first set without re-
moving his sweater as Bulge, high
ly nervous, was unable to control
even the simplest of shots.
The Californian steadied down
and played brilliantly in the Sec
ond set, but even in losing the set
Perry gave the impression of a
man who knew he had matters un-
der control and could win when he
chose.
Bulge was behind all the way IN
the third and fourth sets, and his
best shots avaiied him little in the
face of the perfect play of the
champion.

prowled the muddy lanes that
curl through the Souriand noun
tains for a fortnight before the
Iin6hereh baby was kidnapped,
two more witnesses swore yesteE-
day. -. A..

Down out of the SourlanaSS
Yesterday, his face. scrubbed
Shining clean and a new white
silk scarf around his neck, came
Willard Whited to tell in a Jer-
sew drawl that he saw Haupt-
mann twice in February, 1882,
on the road to the Eindbergh
home. The kidnapping occurred
March /, 1882.
It was a bad day in court for
the gangling woodsman. Before
ne GOT through Hauptmann's
lawyers tore gaping holes IN his
testimony. laughed at him IN
open court and sent him back in
to the hills, a simple man be-
wildered by the strange patterns
into which the English language
can be twisted.
Charles Rossiter Jared better.
He left, the witness chair, I'M
shaken in his story that he saw
Hauptmann near the Princeton
airport on the Saturday before
the kidnapping, two wheels Of his
automobile in a ditch at the side
of the road.
These two men, one a dwelier
in crowded places and the other
the kind of person who knows all
the neighbors for miles around,
agreed on one point with old
Andus Hochmuth. 1t was Hoch-
muth, sc years old and a vet
eran of the Franco-Prussian war,
who testified earlier in the trial
that at noon on the day OF the
kidnapping Hauptmann drove thru
Hopewell in a green sedan with
a ladder in the back seat.
All three of them say the man
they saw was dressed in gray.
That down over his eyes came
the brim of a gray felt hat.
Even this mans face was gray,
they say, and old man Hoch-
mulch THOUGHT he 'loOked like
man who had seen a ghost"
Those must have been grim
meetings in the gray wetness of
February and March. No words
were traded. and people usually
speak at such lonely encounters.
Even when Rossiter asked the
man in gray if he wanted help IN
getting his automobile out of the
ditch, the reply came in the
form of slow side-to-side mo-
ton of the head.

Arthur koehler, department Of
agriculture wood expert, will be
the states final witness. He will
attempt to trace the wood used
in the ladder found. outside the
home right up to

Bronx.
The ground work for Koehler's
testimony was laid when prose
cution got the rude ladder, which
rested against the, courtroom
wall, admitted as evidence. The
defense bitterly contended that
police had taken the ladder apart
in the course of their investiga-
tons. Justice Thomas w. Trench
ar ruled that the ladder should
be admitted as evidence, which
means that the court now con-
cedes that this particular ladder
was the one placed against the
wall of the Lindbergh home on
the night of the kidnapping.
Near the end of yesterdays
session the state began TO Try TO
prove that it could trace the
lumber used in the ladder to
Hauptmann. One witness testi-
fled that on December 20, 1881

ed 1892 cents worth Of lumber

Another witness said that he
had shipped the lumber from

firm.
Then Max Rauch, Hauptmann's
landlord, swore that a piece of
wood had been ripped out Of the
Hauptmann attic. The state will
attempt to prove that Hauptmann
used that wood in building the
ladder. -.
