supremacy over or inferiority to Dis

is because there are no grass courts

Martin Buxby, 18th ranking Amer

81, 60.
Although it was the first time he
had played singles competition in a
grass court event. Rood displayed the
same driving power that he showed
two weeks ago at Spring Lake when
he upset Frank Shields, former ma

Rood's victory stood out as the only
singles upset, although John and
Chester Shostrum, brother combina-

performance by winning 60. 6-4
over Hal Surface and Don McNeill in
a second round doubles contest.

Otherwise it was clear sailing for
the favored players, with Alice Marble
defending woman champion, leading
the advance. Miss Marble was pitted
today against Helen Germaine of New
York after a 60, 60 opening VIC
tory over Jean Burritt of Toronto.
Bobby Riggs, fresh from his triumph
in the Longwood final. was slated tc
begin against John Shostrum in a
second round match. Other seeded
players in action for the first time
