OSPRING LAKE, N. j., July
15-Frank Parker and Mrs.
Sarah Palfrey Fabyan Cooke

10 of their respective tennis
divisions for a decade without
reaching the end of the rain
bow.
This summer 1t will be diff

That's their story and both in

That frankie Parker would
show up on the circuit each

new" forehand has long since
taken a place alongside death
and taxes as a certainty.
That his synthetic forehand,
ridiculous for a top-flight play
er, would eventually crumble
has been almost as positive.
This trip, though, opponents
are not so quick to chuckle. The
mechanical man, now 26, has
swept sight of nine tournaments.
And nobody trims Bobby Riggs,

GAME AND CONFIDENCE
Parker hits from the starboard
side with sharpness and speed
that was lacking in previous
years. A heavy top spin is ap-
parent on his forehand as well as
a flat drive.
This has bolstered his game
and confidence.
I'm much more sure of my
SELF says Parker. Instead of
just outsteadying the other fell
low, I carry the attack. That's
what my game needed"
Parker, a Davis Cup team
member in 1897, attributes his
weakness of the past to too much
experimenting.
"It's like a slumping baseball
player" he explains. "A thou

good faith, but it doesn't help.

ODETROIT, July 15-(P)-The
Detroit Tigers, safe for the time
being in their familiar habitat
of fifth place, appointed Louis
(Buck) Newsom today to do
something about developing a
winning streak for the club and
win the Philadelphia Athletic
series.
Seeking victory in the odd
game, the Tigers gave Buck a
chance for his seventh victory
against IL defeats after Tommy
Bridges won his no. 5 against
seven losses in cooling off the
AIS yesterday, 4 to 2, on five
hits.
Tommy, tanning seven batters,
was full boss as he pushed the
Tigers to two games above the
AS, who came to town threat
ening to pass the Tigers.
The Tigers, however, gave
Bridges a worrisome time. They
couldn't score on Phil Marchil-
don, Philadelphia pitcher, until
the late innings and were trail
ing, 2 to 0, going into their half
of the sixth. They finally won
with a run in the sixth and three
in the seventh.
Even with the bases full in
the first and none out, Detroit
failed to put a man over with
Rudy York striking out, Bruce
Campbell popping up, and
Pinky Higgins rolling out. Char
ley Gehringer, Barney McCosky
and Rip Radcliffe had singled in
succession.
Charley Gehringer, who got
on base four times in FIVE turns
started the main offensive in
the seventh with a walk, his
third of the game as leadoff man.
