Moore Out Revenge Bucky Slump With Shake
FACES CONQUER0R
OF 1886 STRUGGLE
Match With Edith Clarke
Promises Tennis Drama
in Stars Tourney.
BY BILL DISMER, Jr.


T VAV1NG set the stage for one
version of the adage, women
champions OF the City of
Il L Washington tennis tourna-
ments never repeat" Sara Moore.
winner Of the title in 1885, today was
out to disprove the same maxim in
another sense.
This afternoon at the Edgemoor
Club, where she herself was dethroned
last year, Miss Moore tackles her
conqueror of that fatal day-24 hours
after maintaining the tournaments
tradition by eliminating the 1886
champion.
All sorts of dramatics can be woven
into Miss Moores semi-flnal clash to-
day. which happens to be with Edith
Clarke. In addition to the fact that
1t was Miss Clarke who eliminated
Sara in the same round year ago,
It was Miss Clarke's doubles partner,
Margaret Robinson, that Sara de-
prived of the title yesterday.
But Sara seems to be a far differ
ent player than the one who lost the
city title IL months ago. In forcing
Mrs. Robinson to relinquish The Eve
ming Star perpetual trophy, Sara
flashed the kind of form that won
the title for her two years back, and
II she maintains such pace today
she may we'll avenge herself at the
hands Of Miss Clarke
Has Varied Attack.
TO DATE Sara and Edith have
flashed the most powerful games
Of the tournament. But whereas, the
latter may hit slightly harder ball
than her rival of the day, Miss Moore
counterbalances such an advantage
with a more varied attack. Her Ga,
60 defeat Of Margaret Robinson,
while Miss Clarke was polishing off
Mary Ryan, 6-1, 60. was due not
only to a game marked by booming
placements. but by change of pace
which kept the former titleholder on
the run throughout. Sara showed
her fighting heart, too, in that second
set, in which Mrs. Robinson got off
to Al lead, only to have the '35
champion run out five straight games
for the match.
But if fireworks may be expected in
the Clarke Moore scrap, an observer
may think it is the Fourth of July
before the days singles engagements
are finished. For Mary Cootes, the
District-not City of Washington
champion, meets the new and sensa-
tional Mary Greason who, inciden-
tally, is her own doubles partner No
better comparison Of contrasting styles
could be matched.
Miss Cootes, hardshitting, fast
moving young miss NESTS method
ical opponent with an Au-around good
game in Miss Greason. How much
the latter has outclassed her opposi-
ton to date is seen in the figures
which show that in only one set has
she given as many as two games to
an opponent. Those two came in
the first two games she played yes
terday with Edith McCulloch, sew
ranking player of the District.
After that Miss Greason took IL
straight games before yielding the
sixth in the second set. Her scores
were 60, 6-l.

Ellis Staged Battle.

lust the opposite kind Of a match
~ did Miss Cootes md on her HANDS
In the young and talented Anne Ellis.
The only girl in two years to carry
the District champ to three sets-saVe
the one match last year in which Miss
Cootes lost to Mrs. Robinson-Miss
Ellis put up a terrific fight before bow
Ing, 81, ST, 6-1. Six times during
the three sets did Miss Ellis service
whiz by Miss Cootes for aces and more
than one wager would have been laid
on the challenger during the match
had there been a mutuel window
handy.
Her lobs also bothered the champion
no end. Apparently she has all the
strokes. She will bear watching in
tournaments to come.
With the aforementioned producing
the finalists for the singles title, to-
days schedule will be completed by
two Quarter-finals doubles matches.
Both are scheduled for $3.50, with both
Miss Moore and Miss Clarke slated
to join their partners after they finish
their private feud. In one, Miss Clarke
and Mrs. Robinson attempt another
advance in defense of their team title
against Margaret Graham and Miss
McCulloch, while in the other Miss
Moore and Dorette Miller play Miss
Ellis and Marian Prichard.

AUTO IS MURDER
 TRIAL EXHIBIT

New Haven, Conn.,, Oct. 2e-(UP) An automobile seen speeding away from the spot where the trussed body of Amanda salvione, Bridge port watchmaker, was found on an Orange road three years ago, be- came the states principal exhibit today in the first degree murder trial of Camille Venezia and George Parelli, both of Bridgeport. Louis DiBiaso, former Milford garage helper, said he was pretty sure" the car he saw the night of the murder was the same one on which he later fixed flat tire at East Haven. His employer, Samuel Kiev- man, now of Worcester, Mass, made positive Identification of the ma chine.
 Both witnesses were accused by the defense of having given conflict ing testimony at earlier hearings held by the coroner and the grand jury which indicted venezia and Pafelli on first degree murder charges. DiDiaSo, who said he found the body ct 2 .. m, November 6, 1884, and SEW Q car drive away, teSs tified he withheld this knowledge because he feared gangster re- prisals. The machine, the state claimed, was borrowed by Venezia from his nephew and used by the two men the night of the killing.

 Wall street was pleased over the lowering of the margin.
 Another big market aid was the statement by Alfred P. Sloan, Jr, head of General Motors Corpora ton, in announcing third quarter net profit at the highest level since 1929. Sloan said his company was going ahead on the assumption that

FRANCES PERKINS
 TO SPEAK HERE
Will Give NOn.Pa artisan Address at Women's Club
 on November 1

Frances Perkins, secretary of la bor in President Roosevelt'S cabinet, who will lecture on Modern Con- sideration of Labor Problems" in the Waterbury Women's club auditorium at 8:l6 ?. m. Monday, Is an enter- taining speaker with c faculty of relieving her serious remarks with bits of humor, according to local school friends who have maintain ed touch with her ever since they were studying together ct Mount Holyoke college. Today one of them recalled that Miss Perkins began to exhibit qualities of leadership dur- Ing her college days, when she was president Of her class and also Of the student council.
 Dorothy Thompson's characteriza ton of Miss Perkins, only woman ever appointed to Q cabinet office, as the most outstanding woman in American life today is considered accurate by these Waterbury friends. One of them remarked: T don't al- ways agree with her; in fact dis agree violently with many of her ideas; but she has the most brii- liant mind of any woman I know of."
 One of her Waterbury school- mates recalled today that Miss Per- kins began to Do vitally interested in social problems while she was in college. She had been brought up in an atmosphere of society" Q member of c prosperous and old.es- tablished Boston family. While in college she experienced something of c conversion, acquiring c zeal amounting almost to c passion for improving tn condition of the un- derprivileged members of the com munity. This zeal has shown itself in many ways, of which her serv- ice as head of the department of la- bor is only one. For instance, she is keenly and actively interested ir the work of the American Child Hygiene association, the Maternity Center association, the NationaI Safety Council, and the American Public Health association.
 The program committee of the Waterbury Women's club, which ar. ranged for Miss Perkins visit to thii city, felt that she had vital mes. sage which would be of interest tc the people of Waterbury. Hence sht was asked to select her own subject and to say whatever she chose. Hei topic, Modern Consideration of La. Dor Problems" the committee fell was especially timely in view of tho widespread attention labor problems have attracted during the last veal or more. and of the questions about what labor is trying to do and what the government Is tiying to do fol and about labor which nearly every. one b gaking.
 Reports that any attempt will bt made to censor Miss Perkins' fec. ture are branded as ridiculous bj the committee, which points oui that her lectuhe is one of the 50. called special events which the clut puts on each season for the people of Waterbury. and not part of tho regular program. Attendance ai these events b not one of the priv. Ilegeg conferred by membership; members are free to 90 or to remalr away as they choose: f they ct. tend, they do 50 by paying the same fec e the general public.
 Miss Perkins was put on the pro. gram because the committee fell that she was the most important figure the could obtain, and that by bringing . woman cs haf stAndina
