AUSTIN IS MAKING
/. FINAL TENNIS BID
Seen as Victim of Bulge
if He Beats HenkeI-WiIl
Become Writer.
BY sCOTTY REsTON,
Associated Frees Sports Writer,


WIMBLEDON. England, June 90
Henry Wilfred Bunny Austin, for 10
years Britain's model Of classical ten
mis-, may end his distinguished career
on the center court tomorrow.
When this Wimbledon tourney Is
done, Bunny has indicated he will
have no more Of it. And this Wimble-
don may be gone for Bunny after to-
morrows semi-hnal against Henner
Henkel Of Germany.
Ever since 1929, Austin has been in
Wimbledon's last eight. Five times
IN this stretch-l929, 1882, 1896, 1887
and this year-he reached the semi
finals. Once-in 1932-hs reached the
final.
And now Bunny, having seen the
rise and fall Of Britain's tennis for
tunes in this time, is ready to give up.
Favored Over German.
Austin is favored to beat Henkel.
Bunny is seeded second in this tourna-
ment and the German fourth.
In any case it's q case of lose today
or lose to Don Bulge Friday" and
Bunny certainly will have the support
OF the crowd in his final stand
The only trouble with Austin was
tnat ne was born in an era of great
tennis players. He came up first when
French tennis was In its ascendan ncy.
He stayed until Ellsworth Vines came
out OF California and crushed him in
that nnal Of 1882. He taught Fred
Perry until the pupil mastered the
master. And by the time Perry passed
along-along came Bulge.
Has Fine Technical Game.
Technically his game has two weak
nesses. The big boys hit his service
for home runs. And overhead he
definitely Is not big timer. There,
however. his weakness ends. On fore
hand and backhand shots he is a pic
ture. He is graceful as ballet dancer
and mentally and physically he is
trigger-quick
Moreover Wimbledon has become ac-
customed to and fascinated by his ex-
travagant tastes-his passion for
shorts long before they became popu-
lar; his tea taken from the referees
bench while changing courts; his
brandy taken when the goings par
ucularly tough.
Bunny inevitably will be thinking
tomorrow Of his battle with Henkel for
the 1887 French title, when the Ger.
man beat him in three straight sets.
Austin. however, must be courageous.
He has decided to take all the knowl-
edge he gained at Repton and Cam
bridge and in tennis and put it all into
writing pieces for the papers and plays
for the stage.
That's how he's going to raise his
new daughter-and that takes courage.

MUCH-DE[AYEDGO
IS LISTED TONIGHT
Abrams and Furr Weigh In
Again Today Following
Heated Argument.

Tonight has been picked to stage
the much postponed 10-round scrap
between Phil F1lrr and George Abrams
at Griffith Stadium. but before they
meet ceremonies twice performed be-
fore must be gone through again.
The bout Originally was dated for
a week ago yesterday. Rain forced
a postponement until last night. Lots
more rain fell yesterday and the battle
had to again be delayed.
The Boxing Commission yesterday
decided that under the terms of the
contract the boys must weigh in on
the day Of the tight. 20 that func.
ton again will take place today.
Abrams weighed yesterday and sur
prised everybody present by moving
the marker no higher than l54A
pounds. A weeks extra work had
taken its toll and George will have
no more than 7 pounds the advan.
tage over Phil instead of the IL he
would have carried last week.
But that wasn't the most exciting
thing about yesterdays pre-fight in
spection. When Chris Dundee, Furr's
manager, hauled out q contract that
pointed out in black and white that
the weighing in must be done on the
day Of the fight sgd Fishel, Abrams
manager. said in no uncertain terms
they wouldn't do it again and accused
Dundee Of trying to run things in
Washington. More words were passed,
and the conversation had reached the
stage where an impromptu bout was
threatened. It even was suggested
that Goldie Ahearn match Dundee
and Fishel
Everything'& settled now. The fight
will 90 on tonight (westher permit
ting). and the boys will weigh again
today. With the same supporting
card Of three six-round matches and
. four-rounder the show will open at
$50.

TWO REDSKIN ACES SIGN

Contracts of two Redskins who
barring Cliff Battles and Sammy
Baush-had as much to do with
Warrington winning the professional
football championship as any pair on
the team, were received today by
General Manager Jack Espey. They
were the contracts of Erny Pinckert
and Jim Barber.
Pinckert, former all-America at
Southern California and regarded as
one Of the best-looking backs in foot
ball, viii be playing his seventh year
with the Redskins. Barber, the husky
2l5-pound tackle from San Francisco,
has been with the team only two
years, but was regarded as one Of the
unsung heroes of the line last fall.
II rumors that Barber has put on Is
pounds are correct, he xhould prove
even more helpful this season.

World Mile Record Promise Seen in ZnmDerini 7r1
COACHES PICK LOU
TO HIT PEAK IN 40
Only Pace Judgment Seen
Needed to Put Coast Boy
Above Cunningham.
BY FRANCIS ]. POWERS.

CHICAGO, June 28.-Over the
breakfast coffee Billy Hayes and Larry
Snyder, the Indiana and Ohio State
track coaches. were talking of Louis
zamperini, the University OF Southern
California miller. Would Zamperini
develop into the greatest miller ever
produced in these United States?"
Yes, II he continued to develop
and kept in good condition for his re-
manning two years of college compe-
tition," they reckoned. He probably
would be the fellow to beat the world
At 1900 kilometers in the 1910 Olym-
piad."
Right now zamperini is q racer"
explained Billy Hayes, who has few
equals at training distance runners,
with Chuck Hornbostel and Don Lash
the outstanding examples OF his skill.
He runs against his field rather than
on pace and by the clock, as Glenn
Cunningham, Archie San Romani and
more seasoned milers do. He'll learn
that knack over the next two seasons
and then he may crack the world rec
ord"
"Zamperini is not yet up to Cum
ningham," declared Larry Snyder.
Louie will do the first quarter OF a
mile in so seconds, whereas Cunning
ham Is likely to shade 48 seconds any
time he Is in full form. Cunningham
will run the half in about 1850, while
Zamperini will be q couple of tenths
OF . second slower. But the Trojan
has q tremendous finish and when ne
steps up his first quarter and half he
Will beat almost any opponent along
the home stretch.
Billy Hayes had Zamperini prior to
the Olympic games in Berlin two sum-
mers ago At that time, the California
Italian was just graduated from high
school. but much more matured than
the average boy Of his class. That he
finished sixth in the 5,000-meter run
was considered quite an accomplish
ment by the United States coaches and
under Dean Cromwell he has made
steady and consistent improvement.
Zamperini is a tractable and enthu-
slastlc youngster. During the N. c.
A, "A. meet he went to Adrian Talley,
the Trojan captain. and said: "Ad,
60 over and ask the coacher Che always
calls Cromwell 'coacherD if he wants
me to run the 2-mile. Tell him we
may need it to win the meet and I'll
win both for him"
Cromwell refused the offer, for the
Trojans had the meet we'll In hand,
but zamperinis spirit more than
atoned for the recent difficulties he
had in Pacific Coast relay.

completing the round of Is forming

Tennis consistently is the most

Is to say, one generally can pick a

Going out on the limb, therefore, is
less hazardous than similar explora-
tions IN predicting results in other
sports.
Let's examine the District
draw, then, and see what the
next few days hold in store.
Starting at the top. there seems little
likelihood of preventing four time
champion Barney Welsh from reach
ing the semi-finals. He undoubtedly
will beat Frank Shore or Joe Baker
who are contesting today for the right
to play in the fourth round, and
neither Ray Stocklinsk nor John
Hatch, fourth-round foes in Barney s
bracket. should offer serious opposition
in the quarters.
Breese Breezing Along.
1n the lower bracket of the upper
half. Baron Bill Breese apparently has
his way until he reaches the quarters.
Breese should breeze by both Tom
Miller and George Herbert today and
then take the winner of the Don
Garber-J. M. Pope match in stride.
His quarter-final opponent will be
either Tony Latona or Bill Howard,
with the odds slightly in favor of it
being the former. 1t should be Breese
vs.. Latona, then, in the quarters and
going the whole distance-Welsh VS..
Breese in the semis.
