THREE STARS FALL
IN MEADOW TENNIS
McDiarmid, Harris and Nakano
0ut-Riggs, Yamagishi and
Other Seeded Netmen Win.

By the Associated Press.
SOUTHAMPTON, N. Y, August s.
Minus three Of its bright stars but
with plenty left to shine, the forty
seventh mems invitation tennis tourna-
ment at the Meadow Club entered its
second round today.
Jack McDiarmid, the Princeton pro-
fessor who was seeded third; Charles
Harris Of West Palm Beach, Fla, No
4, and Fumiteru Nakano, Japanese
Davis Cup player. found the first
round opposition too tough yesterday.
McDiarmid, far of his best game
ran into Gardnar Mulloy OF Miami
when he was at top form and took a
6-1. 6- beating; Harris couldn't
keep pace with Don McNeill. national
junior indoor champion from Okla
homa City, and lost 8-6, 81.
Nakano blew a match to Owen An
derson Of Hollywood. Calf, after the
U. c. L. A. player had tossed away a
couple Of chances at match point in
the third set. The scores were 6-s,
60, 8-6.
Bobby Riggs OF Los Angeles and Jiro
Yamagishi, Japan's Davis Cup ace,
Justified their top seedlings by de-
cisive victories over Dwight F. Davis,
jr, and Ernie Sutter, respectively.
Second-seeded Greg Mangin, Gilbert
Hall and Sidney Wood also came
through.
A couple Of other first-round

OF violating accepted ring conduct.
Joey's head, you see, was a very con-
venient instrument with which to
bump LOUIS prominent nose.
The preliminaries leaned slightly to-
ward the vaudeville side, but Irish
Johnny Dean, transplanted North
Carolina lightweight, and AL Dunbar
OF New York, packed more action into
their three minutes of swinging than
was combined in the others.
Dunbar was dropped three times in
the first round, but arose the first two
times to retaliate strongly before Dean
smacked him to the canvas as the bell
rang. Al failed to respond to treat
ment during the minute interval and
the fight WAS awarded to Johnny.
Other preliminaries saw Killer
lamar kayo King Kong in the third
round. George Abrams gain a third
round technical knockout over Charley
Rondo, Johnny Campo disposed Of
Jimmy Fox in three heats. Carroll Dell
capture a split decision over Sam Bra
Gala and Kid Hooey win a decision

Joey Tells All-COrrectly.

THUS advised, joey ambled back
to the conversation and granted
that Lou was terrific puncher who
nearly dropped him in the sixth frame
with . series of lefts Archibald S
face, cut under and over the right
eve and sliced mouth, were mute
testimony to the authenticity of his
revised statements.
joey was carved up a bit, but Louis
angular face resembled the business
end OF busy meat grinder With
nasty cuts under both eyes, a pulled
right eye the size of peach and a
nose swollen to abnormal proportions,
Lou was prey for the nearest hospital.
The punch that started Lou to-
ward enforced temporary ring rest
was q right to the jaw that must
have been wound up in the bleacher
seats. Gevinson actually was lifted
full 3 inches from the floor from
the force of the blow, going into
. crazy half spin and winding up
on the floor for count Of nine.
From then on 1t strictly was a
matter OF time. Lou swayed into the
ropes for count Of one and Archi-
bald viciously closed in for the kill
with both fists, pumping until
Gevinson collapsed into the ropes in
g sitting position and Hughes merci-
tully terminated the fuss.

Fight Even Until Eighth.

REFORE that dramatic eighth
round the fight could have gone
either way, both with officials. the
crowd and the fighters. One official
thought Gevinson two points ahead
1t the end of the seventh session,
one had Archy two points in front
And the other had scored it even to
that point. The Stars score sheet
showed Lou winning at that time by
two-point margin.
During those seven rounds the tide
Of battle swayed like the needle on a
tilted compass. with joey duckinr
under most of Lou's lefts but for
getting to duck quite few other i'm
portant ones. Archy's most effective
weapon was a flying left hook, de-
nvered in midair, but Lou soon
brushed these aside and joey was
forced to alter his style.
Perhaps the turning point of the
scrap materialized after the sixth
round when Al WE'LL, Joey's manager
told Archibald exactly how to toss his
punches. WE'LL. you see, had detected
q faw In LOUIS defense and COM
manded joey to shoot right hands
from half crouch during the seventh
round.

TALL TIMBERS, often an inter-

entering the news again with
big striped bass. Recently
these stripers have been active around
the famed rock pile and have been
taken both by trolling and drift fish,
ing with crab on the line.
One dif11culty about crab fishing at
present is the high price Of bait. Soft
crabs are scarce, but if you can get
them the fishing will be that much
better because there are few in the
water for the fish to feed upon. Right
now trolling is the method being used
to snare them.
Last week catches up TO 3
pounds were not uncommon.

Lou Nicked Too Frequently.

CEVINSON'S features have been re-
arranged bit following his un-
timely collision with the Providence
puncher and there is a faint suspicion
that his defensive tactics also may
need altering before he may be con-
sidered title timber. Certainly he has
been sWatted rather freely in three Of
his six professional engagements, all of
which augers for revision of style or
erasure from f1stianas top flight
While Lou may have been overrated
as fighter. perhaps he also has been
underestimated from the standpoint of
courage. Hopelessly battered, stag
gering and feeble after Archibald un-
leashed his most crushing blows in the
eighth, Lou nevertheless still weaved
forward and futilely pleaded with Ref
cree Denny Hughes not to stop the
scrap from the rather embarrassing
sitting position in which Joey finally
dumped him.
Defeat, a bitter dose to the lad
who had been hailed as the finest
hstic thing ever to happen to Wash
AhsVoi4, was gdhell Ill Sll lde ny LOU
He gave his customary little strut
and wave to the crowd before leaving
the ring and was as fine a sportsman
In losing as he ever has been in
winning.
Victory also came to Archibald in
stride. The cocky little fighter, when
some one asked the usual dressing
oh atl
hurt him at any time, replied "Naa."
Manager Al WE'LL then took Archy
aside and informed him newspaper
men were thick, but, after all, they
had seen the fight.
