Play To Be Drawn Friday

BY LAWTON CARVER

NEW YORK, Jan. 81 1.N.S0
Americas first preliminary step
toward relinquishing the Davis
Cup will be made on Friday after
noon. At that time. from the huge
and very fancy bowl itself-that
Is, the Davis Cup-slipS will be
drawn pitting 81 or more tennis
powers in the annual tournament
that leads finally to the challenge
round, in which we again will be
cast In the role Of defenders. We
kept the big tankard at German
town last year by turning back
Australia. But J. Donald Bulge
isn't with us any more.
Most Of the competition. when It
finally gets under way all over the
world next summer, will be an
empty formality, for Australia un'
doubtedly will win its way into the
challenge round, and there take on
whatever we may have to offer.
Everybody fears it won't be Suffi-
cient, It seems that the big beaker
which we regained from Eng
land after a 10-year lapse only two
years ago, is headed for home
across the seas again. To Australia,
specifically. Bobby Riggs is our
main hope at the moment, but un.
less he suddenly turns very great
we may lose the big old saucer IN
three straight.
STANDS SLIM CHANCE
The deadline for entries will be
reached at IL o'clock tonight. Up
to now q contenders are listed.
One or two more may yet beat
the deadline, adding to an already
luSty fled from q standpoint OF
numbers. The crop already
gathered totals three more than
in 1888. The quality is there, too,
from some sectors. but Australia
is still the Joe Louis Of the propo-
sition. BY throwing in a large
dash Of patriotism, we can give
ourselves a chance. But just q
chance to retain the unwieldy
saucepan.
Through it all, we play a grand
total Of one series as the defend
ing nation and that will be held
at Merton Cricket Club. Haver-

GALLEHER TOPS
D. C. HIGH CAME
ON MAPLEWAYS

While q veteran pinman, Tom
Galleher, today was boasting the
highest game ever rolled in league
competition over District drives
by virtue of a 210 game, q young
ster, new at the game, named
Dick Meyer was pretty pleased
over his five strikes in Q row, Q
feat rarely achieved in duckpins.
Galleher, in one Of the greatest
exhibitions Of rowling here,
astounded fans at the Arcadia
last night when he amassed four
spares and five strikes into his
whopper game that cracked Tony
DeFino's mark Of two years stand
ing by two sticks. DeFino In
February. 1887, had rolled 208 In
the Columbia Heights League not
many drives from where Gallehef
cut loose.
FIVE STRIKES
Myer, who sports the Districts
Junior golf title, turned In his feat
at the new Chevy Chase alleys,
rolling with the Dupont Circle
team Of the Chevy Chase COM
mercial League. With two spares
in his first five frames, the cham.
pion maShie wielder struck from
the sixth frame through the tenth
for a game Of 1874, the second
highest Of the season.
But 1t was Galleher, who had
sought some kind of unusual bowl.
ing distinction for more than 20
years. who really went to town In
the Navy Department League.
Starting with a flat 10 box, he
spared in the second and third
frames. Then came four strikes
in succession, followed by two
more spares and a strike. He
counted six pins on the extra two
balls from his tenth.frame strike.
RECORD SCORING
In creating a new league mark
for Washington bowlers to take q
crack at, Galleher missed the
world mark by only five pins. In
November, 1887, J. Wilson Dillon
chalked up 2l5 at High Point,
N. C.
Carroll DAILY was the last to
chalk up five strikes In q row.
This former big Lacquer scored his
five at Convention Hall in 1899,
with the Parkway team Of the Dis
trict League.
Bill Houston'S 14l and HeSbie
Coles 369 were the top counts
registered at the Lucky Strike In
the Graphic Arts League. Both
members Of the E. A. Merkle team,
they were instrumental in chalk
ing UP top team scores Of GOT and
1884.
Ida Weinberg, with 120.363,
featured the rolling in the What's
Tn-a-Name League, enabling her
leading Wacs team to take Q II
decision from Standards. Alta
Schnitzer, with 800, led Mines

Here's one thing to remember
about Galento. If he sticks that
left mitt into the champions
ribs then the champion will
: respec thin for the rest Of the
evening. Galento can't box and
he has the footwook Of a gate
legged table. His right hand is
as useless as a pump-handle in
a drought. But his left hook is
tougher than both ends of a
crocodile.
He is built to take a body
beating for he uses roast beef
and mashed potatoes as shock
ahsorberS. He can do all his
roadwork on a doormat. He
trains by skipping a meal one
day and eating four the next.

Q bashibazouk and the vicious
ness Of a treed wildcat. owing
to the peculiar musclar results

hook anywhere except for the
body. There is nothing coy about
Tony. In his lighter moments
