California Youths Take Second in
Speedboat Classic; JaIopy Holds Up
ITALIAN BOAT
PILOT TAKES
FIRST PLACE

DETROIT, Sept. 6. (UP) = The
gold cup. one of the most coveted
speedboat trophies. is lost to the
United States for the first time
since it was put into competition
in 1904.
But the man who took it-Couns
Theo Rossi Di Montelera, 35 year
old bachelor from Turin-isn't any
happier than pair of college kids
who finished second in this most
classic of all American speedboat
races yesterday.
They we're Dan Arena and Dan
Foster of Oakland, Calf, who
brought a patchedup "jalopy' call
ed Miss Golden Gate here on an
automobile which they sold in De-
troit to provide them with gasoline
and lodging.
They succeeded in finishing all
three 80 mile heats while boats
which cost thousands and thousands
of dollars more than theirs were
put out by motor trouble and acci-
dents.
They were whipped by Rossi-
soundly, but in a boat that cost
many times more than theirs.
Eight boats were scheduled to
start. One, Miss Notre Dame, own
ed by Herb Mendelson of Detroit
who won this race last year, with
another Notre Dame, struck sub
merged log and sank on Saturday.
That left seven boats. Three fail
ed TO start the first heat. Then
Miss Canada, owned by E. A Will
son of Canada, developed motor
trouble and failed to finish. 1t
failed again in the second and
limped home in the third, trailing
Rossis Alagi and Miss Golden Gate,
to take third prize.

AMERICAN
METERS RETAIN
DAVIS CUP
By HENRY McLEMORE

GERMANTOWN, Pa, Sept. g..
(UP)-The United States still has
the Davis Cup today but there is
touch of tarnish on it.
No amount of polishing will re-
store the lustre it lost yesterday
in the match that saw Don Bulge
of California humble Adrian Quist
of Australia 8-6, 6-1, 6-2 for the
point needed to make the cup safe
for the land of its donor.
Bluntly, thousands left the stands
convinced that an American Off
cial had contributed as much, if
not more, to Quists downfall than
Bulge. And there was hardly
spectator who did not feel that the
official-a foot fault judge-had
deprived Quist of whatever chance
he had of winning.
Quist was not the only loser,
either. The action of the official
Harold Lebair of New York-up-
set Budges game, placed him in
a thoroughly uncomfortable posi-
tion, and made it impossible for
him TO score a clean, satisfying
victory.
The drastic penalties, which
brought such booing and Whistling
from the stands that the umpire
repeatedly had to ask for silence,
broke Quist's morale, and made him
prey, even for badly upset Bulge.
Up until these faults were called,
Quist was outplaying the Califor-
MAN and seemed to have a sound
chance of winning.
Had he won, the Ga, 4-6, Go, GO
victory of Jack Bromwich over
Bobby Riggs of Chicago in the con-
Guiding match of the tie would
have given Australia the cup for
the first time since 1919. As it was
the u. S. won 80.

Bench Warming
By Burdette Kline
Post Press Sports Editor

A former valley coach, w. S
Taylor, opened football season at
a new school today. The ex-Spartan
mentor issued equipment from the
gymnasium of Ventura junior high
school where he is head coach and
director of the physical education
department.
One week from today his success
sor, Laurence Hansen, assistant
coach from last year, will launch
his first football campaign with
practice under the arcs at Cen
tral stadium.
His viii be no easy job. The Spar
tan line will be the toughest in the
league but the backfield will be
anything but impressive at the
start of the season.
More than 81 players will an
swer the first call to practice. All
have had some experience on var
sity, b or c squads.
From that list of players Han
sen will have 10 find and develop
backfieid capable of matching
its speed and power with Calexico
and Holtyille scoring combinations.
The only player returning who
has had even a spark of experience
in varsity backfield competition is
Walter Price.
Price was not outstanding as a
reserve backfield candidate last
season but he will be bigger, tough
er and less awkward for this cam
paign.
Luther Hester, up from the b
squad and varsity reserve, looms
as the best prospect for blocking
back. Hester is big, tough and
loves to smash.
Trojans Back?
If some charitable magician will
dream up, couple of ends and
tackles for the University of South
ern California, the Trojanj will

flutter their pennant over the Pasa-
dena Rose Bowl on New Years day.
In all but those two positions
the stuff is there and is ready to
tear apart opposing lines and back
fields. From guard to center and
back to guard the line is a first
cousin to an movable object. More
important than that, after two
years of research, Coach Howard
Jones has juiced up his system and
applied fresh coat of paint.
This is Jones NOw-or-N Never
year. Since 1925 his teams have
lost only 80 games against 101
victories, but IS of those losses
have been noted in the past four
seasons.
The curly wolf, better known as
the alumni, has crossed Jones
Threshold and will walk right in
unless he produces this season.
A Jones team rises or falls on
it tackles. Weakness in that spot
cost the Trojans three games last
fall With only Howard Stoecker
returning to the left side and Phil
Gaspar and Bob Fisher to the right,
the Trojans may run into lots of
grief
Eianks are also weak Ray
Wehba is the only good blocker
and other ends are not out
standing as pass receivers, block
ers or tacklers.
Don Mcneil, Tony Tonelli and
Alex Atanasoff will make the CEN
ter position three deep. Harry
Smith is the outstanding guard and
three sophomores will be up to
make the other guard position air.
tight.
The backfield with Lindell,
SCHNEIDER. Hoffman, Morgan and
Oliver Day is a cause for delight.
There isn't a combination in the
United States that can touch em.
Imperial Valley press., 1938-09-06

world rankings. I refer to Bobby
Riggs of Chicago via California, and
the man who walks like Charlie
Chaplin.
The cup already was safe for
this country when BrsmWich and
Riggs took the court, but the riv-
airy between them made it more
than a mere exhibition. Both fought
with all the skill at their command.
At the finish there was no question
as to which one had the most.
Bromwich, who is the one and
same BromWich who hits the ball
right handed, left handed, and
every other kind of handed was
superior to Riggs in every depart
ment of play. In baseline duels he
repeatedly out-steadied and out
lasted Bobby. His service was sharp
er, surer, and more accurate. Over
head he hit harder and with fewer
errors, and his Volleying was crisp
er ana more angled. Even III Staln-
ina and court covering, at which
Riggs was supposed TO be para
mount now that Bitsy Grant has
deelyoped the miseries, BromWioh
had to yield nothing.
Bromwichs ascension to the
championship will not be pleasing
TO the tennis fathers. Not one bit.
Because the tennis fathers, the
American ones in particular, are
fanatical Worshippcrs of form.
Bromwich will give them the 10
ply, self-cocking, hand turned jit-
ters, because he not only violates
form he annihilates 1t every
time he swings his bat.
