She's Miss Clarke's Nemesis,

MISS COOTES, however, beaten by
Mrs. Robinson in the semi-final
round last year, is getting her first
crack at the city title. Last season,
when she won the District champion
ship. she defeated Miss Clarke every
time they played
OF the two, though. Miss Cootes has
had by far the rougher time in reach
Ing the title round Although she
wasn't hitting them up to par with
her drives of previous rounds, Marv
Greason, who returns to Honolulu
after graduating from George Wash
ington University next week, gave her
partner q severe workout before bow
Ing, GO, 2-6, 6-3. 1t was the sec
ond successive day in which Miss
Cootes had been extended to the limit
Of three sets.
In contrast, Miss Clarke has gone
through the tourney without the loss
OF set, no opponent before Miss Moore
having taken more than two games
from her. She has lost only IL games
in sets.

CO0TES TO BATTLE
CLARKE FOR TITLE
Defeat of Defending Champ
Maintains Tradition of
8-Year.0Id Event.
BY BILL DISMER, JR.

TOR the eighth time in the
- year history of the tournament
new woman champion of the
4 City of Washington tennis
tournament will be crowned tomor-
row. when either Edith Clarke or
Mary Cootes wins the 1887 title-and
The Evening Star Trophy-at the
Edgemoor Club.
Seeking the title which never has
been won more than once by any
, woman since the tournament began
in 1929, Miss Cootes and Miss Clarke
the second and third ranking play
ers OF the District and the daughters
OF colonies of the Marine Corps and
Army, respectively, will start their
Championship match at o'clock.
There is a good chance, too, that
both will be found in the title dou-
bles engagement, which will follow
their singles match, as both were in
the semi-finals this afternoon.
Have Easier Sailing.
MISS CLARKE, with her partner,
Marge Robinson, had clearer
path today to the final doubles round
than did Miss Cootes. AS defending
champions, Miss Clarke and Mrs.
Robinson are meeting Kay Baker
and Willie O'Steen, formidable. but
not expected to stop the cnamps. On
tho other hand, Miss Cootes and
Mary Greason were called upon to
face Sara Moore and Dorette Miller
this afternoon, the latter being final
lists last year and the seeded No. 2
team. Both of todays matches were
to start at 3 o'clock
For Miss Clarke it will be the sec
ond successive year that she has
played in the finals of both events.
Last year she lost the singles cham
pionship to Mrs. Robinson, who was
eliminated in the current tourney by
Sara Moore. Miss Clarke, however,

In five years the run will be de-

Coffey cited the Japanese Rus

said the Bureau of Fisheries pro-
hibits Americans using the Japan

CHAMBER WILL
ASK BOOST IN
CITY TAX LEVY
Says Money Needed To Pay
City's Portion OF SIN all
Boat Harbor Development

An additional city tax of two
mills, bringing the total levy fol-
Juneau to 20 mills, will be sought
by the Juneau Chamber of Com
merce to take care of the city's
part in developing the proposed
small boat harbor here, it was re-
vealed at the Chamber luncheon
this noon at Percy's Cafe.
Allen Shattuck, Chairman of The
small boat harbor committee, has
been instructed to draw up reso-
luton which will be presented the
City Council, asking that body tc
make the additional levy as effec-
tive for the present tax year. 1t is
estimated such tax would raise
around $4,000 per year.
In bringing up the tax matter, il
was pointed out by Norman C
Banfield and Mr.. Shattuck that
the Army recommendation now be-
fore Congress, which would provide
$232, 900 for the building of small
boat harbor just north of the Doug
las Island bridge on the mainland
side of the channel, is dependent
on the city's agreeing to do GER
tain share of the work such rs
building floats, installing lighting
system, putting in a retaining wall
if it develops one is needed, and
other incidentals. Whether the gov
eminent will insist that the City
have the money on hand to do such
work before it will proceed, if the
appropriation is approved by Con-
gress, has not been determined, il
was stated, but it is certain, Mr.
Shattuck said, that the city mus
agree to take care of its portion OF
the development.
Mr.. Shattuck reported that he had
word that the small boat harboI
item had a good chance of getting
approved in the general rivers and
harbors bill, but that it develops
that if it has to go through as a
special item it may not get action
until the next session of Congress.
The Chamber voted to entertain
the Rainbow Girls party at its week
ly luncheon next Thursday. The
party of about Is girls and three
chaperones from the state of Wash
ington are scheduled to arrive Sat-
urday and expect to stay here a
week.
r. E. Robertson brought up agar
the matter of dust on the Glacier
Highway and was named chairman
of a committee to see if something
could not be done to eliminate the
problem, one the Chamber has beer
trying to get Federal action on fol
years.
The finance committee reported
! that it virtually had balanced the
budget b, raising STATS to carry or
activities of the Chamber during
the ensuing year.
