 of 1000 COmpetes

Vandalia, O., Aug. 22.-CUP)- Nearly 1000 crack trap shooters men and women, boys and girls open competition today in the 39th renewal of the Grand American, a five day carnival of clay-pigeon busting from various distances, angles and positions.
 The tournament opens with the junior and junior North Ameri- can clay target championships and concludes on Friday with the Grand American handicap, blue ribbon clas- sic of the scatter-gun sport.
 Sandwiched in between will be the amateur clay target champion ships of North America in both mems and Womens classes on Tues day; class championships and the professional shoot on Wednesday, and the difficult double target and preliminary handicap shoots on Thursday.
 A total of 20 championship will be decided. Purses total more than $2O,0O0.
 StandOuts
 Phil R. Miller, of French Lick, Ind, and Mrs. Lela Hall, wife of a Mis- souri tavern keeper, are favored to take tomorrow's amauter event. Mrs. Hill has won the last three.
 The main event, however, will be the Grand American, a 100 target event in which the shooters are handicapped according to past per- formances, on lines ranging from 16 to 25 yards from the targets.
 Only once has 1t been won by an expert stationed on the 25-yard line-in 1893 when Walter Beaver, Berwyn, Pa, electrician took down top prize. The event carries with it a guaranteed purse of $10,OOO of which $1,000 goes to the winner. Frank G. Carroll, a hardware mer- chant in the village of Brecksville, won it last year, and will defend.

AUSSIES RATED TO TANKS IN DOUBLES GO
Germans May Go Home Following so Shutout;
 Budge=MakO Favored
By HENRY McLEMORE

United Press Staff Correspondent)
 Chestnut Hill, Mass, Aug. 22- (UP)-The American mems, wo- mems and mixed doubles tennis championships open today at the Longwood Cricket club and Aus tralian stars were given fighting chance to haul away some of the silverware.
 Last year, Germany's Baron Gatt- fried von Cramm and Henner Henkel took the mems doubles. Henkel and his current Davis cup partner, Georg von Metaxa, were uncertain competitors - they had been ordered home for a rest but Jack Bromwich and Adrian Quilt, of Australia, were looked upon as a very formidable threat.
 The German pair, licked 50 by Australia in the weekend inter zone Davis cup matches, and the U. s. Lawn Tennis association ap- pealed to the German Tennis Fed eration to rescind cancellation of the Nazi's American tour. An an- oWCl WOO ChPCNOCo oOOdy.
 Tanks on Top
 Betting odds disregarded the Germans and made the U. s. Davis cup team of Gene Mako and Don Budge, victims of the Germans last year, a slight favorite to take the title. Bromwich and Quist, who twice beat the Americans during their recent Australian tour, were next in line. There were no other standout teams.
 Thirty-two teams were entered, including 18 of Americas top 20 players, and Davis cup players from Japan, France, England, Australia and Yugoslavia. The second seeded Hunt, Los Angeles, and Sidney B. American team was that of Joe Wood. Jr., of New York. Winner Allison and Johnny Van Ryn, who won in 1881 and 1895, were seeded third.
 The Australians topped the for eign seeded followed by the Ger mans, the French team of Bernard Destrameau and Won Petra, and the Yugoslav tandem of Franjo Puncec and Franjo Kukuljevic.
 Alice Marble of San Francisco, Americas ranking woman player, and Mrs. Sarah Parfrey Fabyan of Brookline, Mass, were favored to retain the women's title they won last year. Their strongest opposi- tion was expected to come from Nancy Wynne and Thelma Coyne of Australia, top-seeded on the foreign list.
 Budge and Mrs. Fabyan were fa- vored to retain the mixed doubles crown.
