Bulge and Mako
Favored TO Cop
Doubles Today
Davis Cup Series Is Now
Even With Each Team
Having Won One
BY ROBERT C. DOWSON
United Press Staff Correspondent

Wimbledon, Eng, July 25.-(U'D
The United States Davis Cup
team, needing two victories to re-
turn the treasured trophy to Am
erica for the first time in 10 years,
was heavily favored to get one OF
them tomorrow when Donald
Bulge and Gene Mako, worlds
premier doubles combination,
meets England's makeshift pair, c..
D. R. Tuckey and Frank Wilde.
With the match score deadlock
cd IL as a result of splitting yes
terday's opening singles matches,
England was conceded little
chance in capturing any of the re-
naming three.
Although Wilde is considered a
fine club player, he is a poor sub
stitute for the veteran Pat Hughes,
Tuckey's regular doubles partner
forced out of competition by i'll
ness. However, Tuckey and Hughes
would not be expected to fare
much better against Americas tall
California lads who swept to the
Wimbledon doubles title.
There is a bare chance that
Tuckey might be replaced at the
last moment by Charley Hare, a
regular partner of Wilde in most
competitions. This is not consid-
cred likely, however, since the lat
ter is playing in the No. 2 singles
spot, his first Davis Cup exper-
ience. England still hopes that
Hare will turn in a victory over
Frankie Parker Tuesday. A deci-
sion as to doubles personnel does
not have to be made until an hour
before match time, according to
the agreement of team captains at
the drawing.
England'S lone hope for retain
ing the cup it has held since 1888
is that Hare can edge out a vic
tory over Parker and that their
No. l player, Henry Wilfred (Bun-
n.y. Austin, can stop Bulge in the
final singles matches.
Parker, the Spring Lakes, N. j.,
youngster chosen to replace Bryan
Grant of Atlanta as the No. 2 man
on the American team, will be a
slight favorite over Hare, but the
British displayed a remarkable
service in the first set of the
match he lost to Bulge yesterday.
It took Bulge % games to win
1918, and Hare's sole weapon was
a cannonball serve. If Hare could
have one of his mad days"
against Parker, he would be a good
bet to win and square the series
at 2-2.

In The American league, the
leading Yankees and Chicago
White Sox divided. The Yanks
snapped a three game losing streak
by taking the opener 12-l1, then
the Sox came back to take the
second, 7-6, behind the eight hit
pitching of Monty S5ratton. Bill
Dickey hit two home runs in the
first game and DiMaggio and Gro
setti each got one. Rookie Out
fielder Tom Heinrich clouted for
the circuit with a mate aboard
in the sixth inning of the night
cap to tie the score for the
YankS, then blasted another with
two on in the eighth to send New
York ahead. But the Sox match
ed those three, then tailed again
in the ninth to win.
The split left Chicago five
games behind New York and one
tilt ahead of the Detroit Tigers
who licked the Philadelphia Ath-
letics, 1873. Play in this scheduled
doubleheader was halted by rain
after six innings of the opener.
The Tigers collected 13 hits, in
Guiding homers by Greenberg,
Walker and Bolton. Peters home
run was one of the II hits gar
nered off Poffenberger and Gill
by the AS.
Rain also interrupted the dou-
bleheader at Cleveland. The first
game was halted at the end of
the fifth with the Boston Red Sox
leading, Al, and the second was
abandoned. Lefty Grove allowed
but two hits to win. He retired the

Bruce Campbell and Sammy Hale

The Washington Senators went

st. Louis Browns, 1910, and 1916,
for their second doubleheader vic
tory in two days. They beat the
Browns 6-5, 6-5 yesterday. WeS
Ferrell coasted to victory in the
opener allowing IA hits while the
Senators raked four st. Louis
hurlers for % including homers
by Kuhel and Almada. Jimmy De-
Shong scattered IL safeties in the

lected II, including a four-bagger
by Stone. Bell and West hit round

Walks

Mean Dropping From
tho League
By PETE HASTE

The Texaco Beach Pirates vlr-
tually gave away a ball game yes
tarday when they walked off the
field in the seventh inning with
the score tied. The Peach team
was leading the South Norfolk
Aces two to one in the seventh
inning with two out Barnes was
safe on an error and stole second
on the first pitched ball but the
throw to second was wild and he
went 10 third standing up. On the
next pitched ball he attempted to
steal home. Edmonds looked to-
ward third and saw Barnes and
then completed his pitch. Barnes
was tagged out after a chase and
Mike Smith went to the umpire to
question whether the play was
legal or not, Smith claiming that
Edmonds had committed a balk.
The balls and strikes umpire held
to the decision that the player
was out and that Edmonds had
not committed a balk. Smith then
asked the base umpire and he
claimed that the pitcher had COM
mitted a balk and that the run
ner was safe giving South Norfolk
the run and tying the game up at
two all. Both teams then proceed
ed to argue back and forth and
the run would have went down on
the official score book and the
batter would have had one ball
and one strike and the game would
have been played under protests
with the chance that it would
have been thrown out and be
played over again but rather than
do this the Pirates forfeited the
game giving the Aces 9 to 0 win.
Team disagreement was the
cause of the Pirates walking off
the field. The Pirates manager
told this writer personally that if
the team did not go back that he
was through for the season and
after a vain attempt to reorgan-
ize his team he went to the club
house and dressed to leave the
team for the year.
The game started off with
South Norfolk scoring in the first
inning on a walk and a SlaShing
double but the Pirates came back
in the third and scored two runs
to put their team in the lead 2 to
/.
Both teams then played on
even terms until the seventh when
the game was called after the UNI
pire had waited five minutes for
the Pirates to take the field after
the big argument but all in vain
and he then gave the visitors the
game by the score Of nine to moth
ing. The Pirates outhit the Aces
to 3 but errors contributed to
help get the runs.
EdmondS, for the Pirates allow
ed three hits but walked four,
while Williams for the Aces allow
four hits and walked one.
Both pitchers walked two bat
terS, but the South Norfolk pitch
erfell back as he hit one batter.
