RHYMES WITHOUT REASON

Good Evening.

RHYMES WITHOUT REASON Tell me not in mournful numbers Life is just lot of steam, Corned beef is nothing without cabbage And what is coffee without cream? III fares the land where wealth accumulates, And the rich and the poor own car, Where Judy O'Grady and the coloneps lady Are equals at popular bar. Breathes there a man with soul so dead, Be he saint or sinner, Who never to himself hath said, hope I've picked winner. Oh many shaft at random sent, Of it scars, but wither? No matter how you figure today Everythings all in dither.

BROOKLINE, Mass, Aug. 26.-
The Davis Cup teams of Australia
and Yugoslavia, staging something
of world war themselves, squared
off today for once-postponed
doubles match that may well decide
which country battles the United
States for the cup itself.
With Australia's Jack Bromwich
and Adrian Quist possessing much
the heavier artillery in combina-
ton play, the of1icially-nominated
Yugoslav team of Drago Mitic and
Franjo Kukuljevic was distinctly
the underdog.
F'erenc Puncec, the European star
announced yesterday he would not
play doubles, but he had until an
hour before match time to change
his mind.
1t was Puncec who exploded all
over the place on Theursday to
blast the favored Bromwich off the
courts and give his country a IL
tie in the opening days play 1t
appeared highly doubtful that Mitio
could Duplicate this feat in the final
singles matches, however, and the
doubles thus were crucial to Yugo-
slavia's chances.
Members of both kept a close
watch on the boiling internationa.
situation. particularly yesterday
when rain caused a cessation oi
tennis hostilities.
All of the Yugoslavs have seer

Wozniak, a short, stocky youth
with powerful stroke. was due to
arrive here this morning by plane
from Detroit, where he finished
fourth in the national A. A. U. l.
mile swim. He competes unattached.
Candidates for the team trophy
include the Washington Y. M. C. A.,
