 CROSBY IN FINALE

If Crosby highs unfortunate baseball squad ever had any idea that they were going to close the l04i season with at least one vic. tory, the Wilby Wildcats took 1t out of them in the first two innings Of Saturdays high school diamond finale, which Wiiby won il to { in the proverbiai "breeze". Six runs, three in the first and as many again in the second inning, was the story of the game, except for a flock of Crosby errors, which prevented any chance of the team holding Wilby even, though the pitching was rea- sonably good, each club getting seven hits.
 Salvatore, 6 hard.hitting out- fielder and pitcher, gave Crosby but one hit in the first three innings. 4 walk, and two singles by Fisher and Bender brought Crosby two runs in the fifth, while Wiiby had ten runs Scored by that time.
 Bender, Crosby's first baSeman who can catch behind the bat, too, was chosen Crosbys 1922 baseball captain, after the Wilby game.

New York, June 9-(UP)-Fred Perry, former British Davis cup star, defeated Don Budge in straight sets at Forest Hills yesterday and added the worlds professional round-robin tennis title to the Na- tional Professional crown he won at Chicago two weeks ago.
 Some one had to beat Budge, and I just happened to be around at the right time," Perry said. "Don just couldn't go on winning forever. And besides. he was way of his game and I was at the top of mine. Put the two together and what do you get? Me as champion"
 Perry, who defeated Budge 6.4, 6-2, 6-3. explained that the Cali fornian has been of his game since he fell down a flight of stairs more than Q month ago and injured his nose. Budge was hospitalized for nearly two weeks and had an oper. ation on his nose during that time. He left the hospital too weak to last more than short time in the national championships.
 Dick Skeen, Los Angeles profess sional, defeated Bill Tilden, 6-i, 7-5, 6-3, to finish in third place.
 Perry teamed with Budge to de. feat Keith dledhill and Lester Stoefen of California, 0-4, 6-4, for the doubles title.
