escaped by slipping out through

1t could not be learned whether
he had taken a train or a plane

Fred Perry
T0Bedt Ti|den

NEW YORK, March 23.-Fred
Perry Of England, former No. l
amateur in the tennis world, to-
day was established as a top-heavy
favorite to beat the veteran Bill
Tilden before a probable capacity
crowd at Madison Square Garden
tomorrow night.
Although Tilden has never been
whipped in the Garden, the 46
years hanging to his gaunt frame
were regarded as too much of a
handicap for him against the
agile, 28,year-old Briton. 1t will
be their first meeting in singles.
Ellsworth Vines, who holds a
19-to-17 edge over Perry in their
current tour and opponent of Til
den on many occasions, said:
II think Perry is a cinch to
win from TiIden. Old man
Tilden has all the shots. but his
legs figure to go after a couple

Strong Quintets
Play In Times
Tourney
BY SID KATZNELL

Having scientifically weathered
the storm in the first round of
The Washington Times Commu-
nifty Center elimination basketball
tournament last Saturday night,
Knights of Columbus and Merrick
Boys Club face acid tests in the
semifinal round tonight at Tech
High School.
Victorious over Pixies Confec-
tionery Store, A to SO, the Caseys
are confident they will lower Mt.
Vernon in the first game, commen-
cling at 8 o'clock. Merrick Boys
Club toSsers, who registered a 49,
to-32 triumph on the Trinity ma
chine, are picked to dispose of Ma
tional Savings and Trust Company
in the main event at 9 o'clock.
The winners of these contests
will battle it out for the cham
pionship and the Washington
Times silver medals Saturday
night at Tech High School at 8
o'clock. AS an added incentive
the Community Center will award
handsome prizes to outstanding
individual performers.
Established Stars
Keeping up with his policy Of
giving the Community Center fol-
lowers the finest entertainment in
the basketball field, Harry Eng
lish, director. has arranged to
have the Washington Times all
high team of 1887 meet the Times
1886 Quintet Immediately after
the championship game.
Such established stars as Gerald
Burns, George Dewitt, Joe Conner,
Russ Lombardy and Bill Vermil-
lion comprise the 1887 aggrega-
ton. The 1886 outfit is studded
with such rare basketball jewels
as "Dopey" Dean, Don FoneS,
Chick Hollidge, Buddy Shaner and
Bill Rea.
Believing they could coast
through their game with the Trim
ity A. c., Merrick Boys Club tossers
loafed during the first half, only
to find themselves leading by mere
three points at intermisSion. Gifted
with recuperative powers, the Mer-
ricks put on the gas during the
final half and the ultimate winner
was never in doubt. Katz, formerly
of Central High, led the offensive
for the Boys Club with 18 points,
while Willie Wonneberger took Sec
ond honors with II. Bill Norris,
who has been a top-notch sandlot-
ter for several years, led Trinity's
attack with 8 markers.
Although beaten, a small but
aggressive group from Eastern

early impressions of the team.
However, a ball player doesn't
have to be carried out in a
Stretcher in order to satisfy the
Old Fox's idea of gameneSS.
Too, Griff has been notoriouSly
patient with other players having
what he calls the same complexeS
attributed to Bolton.
Take the case of Monte Weaver
and Bobby Burke! If a club owner

that even such sustained inValidS
as Weaver, Burke and, it now ap-

their recovery by a better mental
approach to their Affections. It
Is this PSYCHOLOGY, Griff holds,
which keeps lot of men, athletes
and otherwise, on their feet, while
others curl up at the least provo.

Why, Away Back
Why, the local mogul harkens
back to the old days, when if a

BY DAVIS ]. WALSH

NEW YORK, Marcn 23.-In the
quite incredible manner that has
characterized the gaudy and fabu-
lous plot throughout, the Brad
dock Louis Schmeling saga sud
denly shifted in the last "a hours
down the coast to Miami, where
one of Madison Square Gardens
legal paper hangers" made a
pass at Champion Braddock,i with
a subpoena yeSterday-and missed.
Today, the thing has taken on
the proportions of a national
man-hunt.
Manager Joe Gould says that
he was tipped on the Miami move
and pulled the heavyweight cham
pion out of Florida in order to
bring him back to New York. I
can't go for that.
I can go for the idea that
maybe Braddock is headed for the
friendly confines Of the State of
Illinois, where he has signed to
meet Joe Louis-and so, ap-
parently, can Madison Square
Garden.
Watch Railroads
Anyhow, it's watching the rail-
roads and air ports en- route to
Chicago. For if Braddock got
there without being tagged, it
might leave the Garden nothing
to do but choose up sides all over
again and start another game. It
holds a contract here for Schmel-
ing and Braddock on June 3, but
it doesn't seem probable that an
Illinois court would feel obligated
to vacate a Chicago contract in
favor of New York.
Well know more about that
very shortly, for Braddock prob
ably will have to show somewhere
today. If it is the home State Of
New Jersey-and it might be
Braddock will be giving himself
none the worst of it. If it's IlG-
nois, 1t ought to be the best. If
it's really New York, then Mr..
Gould is positively no brighter
than Promoter James j. Johnston
says he is.
But" said Johnston this
morning, speaking in his native
tongue, "if he put Braddock in
Chicago or gets that $35O.O0O
guarantee from Berlin, won't 1
look like a dumbSter for calling
that dumbSter a dumbSter?"
The answer may be yes, any
how; for the Garden, after wait
ing a matter of weeks for Brad
dock to come back to New York,
finally decided to make its move
in Miami. However, Braddock had
already made his and, in fact, was

mind.
The Big Tip-Off
Knowing Griff's disdain for any
ball player who doesn't show bet
ter spirit or more fight than Boil
ton seems to have revealed the
last six or seven months, I'd wager
the only reason the Washington
ball club has fooled with him is
its rank desperation for qualified
catcherS.
Griff likes his field hands to
have the old pepper and conf
dence. But in view of the scarcity
of men even approaching major
league caliber, he can't always be
too discriminating.
He is considerate enough of all
ing athletes; tolerant and Solici-
tous Shereof in fact, especially
where injuries incurred in play
are concerned.
But he thinks ball players of
this era are bit too pampered
and also inclined to go on the
shelf at times when a little will
power would help them forget
their ills.
