RYE, N. Y. Aug. 9.-Henry Prusof
was an easy guy to talk to yesterday
especially If you wanted to talk
about Bitsy Grant.
Five minutes after reporters cor
nered him for the lowdown on his
6-4. 6-3 upset of frankie Parker
in the quarter final round of the
Eastern grass court championships,
the telephone rang. 1t was Grant.
Bitsy wanted to tell Prusoff that
he had just licked Joe Hunt, the
midshfpman, 6-3, 3-6, g. Prusoff
howled his congratulations into the
houthpiece, turned around and said,
"Bitsys sure a great little fighter
He's got fighting heart from way
back"
Tribute From an Authority.
That was tribute from an au-
thority, because Prusoff himself had
to be more than courageous five
years ago when he broke his back in
an elevator accident, spent six
months in hospital and listened
politely but skeptically to doctors
who told him he would never walk
again.
When he returned home to begin
a three-year period of convalescence
Prusof owned a No. 13 national
ranking, which was appropriate
enough for an unlucky lad like him
In 1889 he returned to the circuit
and licked Bob Kamrath of Austin
Tex, in the first round of the Mary
land State tournament.
Then week later at Southampton
PruSof upset Grant in the first
round. In 1885 at Southampton
Hank also beat Grant in the first
round on the same court with the
same umpire supervising. He went
to Rye the next week and beat Dor
McNeill.
These and other successes earned
Hank a No. 10 national ranking.
