HAVERFORD, Pa, July 7.-Six-
teen-year-old Earl TONY" Bartlett,
the New Orleans mite who has been
showing surprising action in the
national interscholastic tennis cham
pionships, faces his most crucial
test today when he meets Defending
Champion Jack Kramer of Cali
fornia in the mi-finals.
Bartlett. feet 7 inches tall,
entered the round of four with an
upset victory over Paul Wilson of
Ventura, Calf, but his triumph was
overshadowed by Kramer's victory
over unseeded Richard j. Bender of
Elizabeth, N. j.
Kramer introduced dramatic note
in the play by protesting a decision
by the line judge on one of Benders
returns in the third set and de-
manding that the official be re-
placed. The request was granted
The official had called Bender's re-
turn good. Kramer. trailing, to O,
in games at the time, protested, al
though he had slammed over a
placement to win the point.
Ted OleWine of Santa Monica
Calf, and Billy McGehee OF Scar
borough, N. Y. were the other two
players to reach the semi-fnals.
Olewine, seeded second, trounced
Arthur John Prochaska of West

a sissy pastime. And look at the
burned place now.
Good golfers are a dime a dozen,
and no matter how good you think
you are there's some one around who
can take" you.
Mrs. Meckley Wins Play-Of.
But Betty Meckley, winner of every
championship around this hot links
sector. stands out around the top of
the feminine golfers. Not only be-
cause she has been so consistently
good, but because she keeps on WIN
ming. Just as she did yesterday, for
example, in annexing the play-of of
tie with Mrs. Walter r. Stokes for
the gross prize of The Evening Star
Cup tourney. Mrs. Meckley and Mrs.
Stokes tied at 81 last Thursday for
the top scoring prize. They couldn't
play off at once, because Mrs. Stokes
left town the next day. But they did
play of yesterday, and Betty added
another mug to her bulging trophy
collection by shooting neat but not
gaudy 83. Mrs. Stokes, who has
threatened for the past two years to
become the top feminine golfer

mean that in any derogatory sense.
You wonder how long she can keep

OF fact she holed a good putt for a

her strokes in front This margin
she retained to the end.
The Star tourney set new record
in two ways. 1t marked the first
time any woman had won the
trophy twice in row, when plucky
Mrs. Richard Kreuzberg repeated

Gherie's Iron Qualities
Are Revealed EorIy

The lowdown-the inside angle
on Lou Gehrig might have been
picked up at Columbia Field in a
football game around 18 years ago.
Columbia was playing one of Col
gates best elevens, with Eddie Tryon
and others in action. Dick Harlow
was coaching Colgate that year.
In the course of the game I saw
Columbia player still on the job
with one arm dangling at his side.
His collarbone had been broken. but
he refused to leave the field. He
played through period with this
handicap and still gave all he had.
His name was Gehrig.
