Riggs Likely 10 Upset

Hunter Believes
Former Dovis Cup Stor
Soys Soft Turf Court
Will Fovor Bobby

NEW YORK. June 22-Frank
Hunter, the tennis veteran, thinks
Bobby Riggs can beat Don Bulge
on a soft court. He anticipates a
Riggs Bulge meeting in the final
round of the National Professional
Tournament Sunday at the West
Side Tennis Club in Forest Hills.
He also anticipates a soft court.
The 48-year-old former Davis
Cupper said as much yesterday
after dropping a 90. 60, 50
match to Riggs in the second round
OF the tournament.
Grass courts always are soft this
time of the year." Hunter explained.
"On that basis, I'd string along
with Riggs. He's lighter than
Bulge. covers more ground and is
less apt to tire in the heavy going
Kenney. ID. c. Entrant, Bows.
Riggs. said Hunter, is just as good
as the stars of a decade or two
ago. when Frank himself stood high
in the international ranking. So
is Frank Kovacs. he added, after
watching the California clown deal
81, 60, 8-6 drubbing to Bill
Kenney of Washington. D. c.
In these thoughts. Hunter differs
sharply with Bill Tilden, who beat
him for the national amateur title
in 1929.
Tilden frequently has given the
impression that he doesn't think
any of the younger players would
have made a passably ballboy in the
good old days.
Hunter said he detected notice.
able improvement in Riggs over
head game. Riggs himself thinks
it's a sharper weapon than it ever
was. Bobby, who'll be Is next Feb
ruary, said:
IT'S my most improved stroke II
only because there always was
plenty Of room for Improvement
in it.
Bulge Advances Easily.
Budge, incidentally, advanced to
the uuarter-final round with Riggs
and Kovacs by winning 60, 6-1
default victory from Karel Kozeluh,
former Czechoslovakian star. Ko-
zeluh quit after pulling muscle in
his thigh. A fourth berth in the
round of eight was earned by Wayne
Sabin, who defeated Herman Peter
son of Purchase, N. Y, 6-1, 60,

Roosevelt veioes Bill
Control Of
Alien Propaganda
Asks Redruft Of Measure
Designed to Protect
Nation in Peucetime

President Roosevelt today vetoed
q bill providing stricter control over
alien propaganda in the United
States because, he indicated, it would
have hampered the cooperative
efforts Of the United Nations to de-
feat the Axis.
Viscount Halifax, the British Am
bassador, it is known, has pointed
out to the State Department that a
strict construction of the measure
would have interfered seriously with
the function of British information
Offices in the United States and
hampered the travel Of British mil
itary and official people to the
United States.
Even Winston Churchill would
have been required to register under
the act, it Is thought, should he have
visited the United States when the
law was in operation.
Mr.. Roosevelt recommended that
the bill be redrafted SO as to grant
broad discretionary powers to the
Attorney General during the en-
ergency.
This BILL" the President said in
his veto message, was drafted In
peace time to protect q nation at
peace. 1t was properly designed to
force the disclosure of the activities
of foreign agents who may abuse
the hospitality of our country or
weaken our national unity by
fostering discord and distrust.
'The bill, however, obviously was
not drafted with q view to the
situation created by the Axis assault
upon our country and our entry into
the war. '"'"

doing, and because she has wider
contacts with the people who would
have to be brought into the pro-
gram as volunteers than some one
teaching recreation might have.
Mrs Roosevelt said she was not ac-
Quainted with Miss Chaney's work
and suggested that reporters get in
touch with John Kelly, head Of the
Physical Fitness Division.
Asked whether she would abide by
the ruling Of Congress II 1t should
adopt the amendment that would
bar dancing from the o. c. D., she
responded that there was time to
make such decisions when she was
faced with them. When reporter
commented that the Children's Bu-
reau now has experts doing much
the same kind of thing, Mrs. Roose-
welt said that many programs OF
existing agencies are not able to do
a whole job and that Mr.. Kelly. as
far as possible, has tried TO supple
ment the work that Is now being
done, slanting it toward the war pro-
gram.
Mrs. Roosevelt said In answer to
Ia question that her continuation
as assistant director Of o. G. D.
in charge of volunteer participation
will depend on whoever succeeds
Mayor La Guardia as director Of
o. c. D. She also said that the
President had not discussed attacks
on the o. c. D. with her and that
when he did discuss the situation,
it would be with Mayor La Guardia,
o. c. D. director. or James M.
Lands, executive director.
Mrs Roosevelt expressed belief in
a radio broadcast last night that
the Nations people might be looking
to the future with greater percep-
ton than some members Of Con-
gress.
II that should be the case, she
added, then I'VE will find our Repre-
sentatives trying to dig out some
scapecoat to take the blame if things
haven't been done"
That is an old habit with all Of
us, she said.
Her remarks regarding members
Of Congress followed a reference to
q recent statement Of Senator Walsh,
Democrat, of Massachusetts, that the
military branches Of the service
never asked Congress to fortify the
Pacific Island of Guam, q United
States possession now in japanese
hands.
II wonder why he finds II neces-
sary to make that statement" Mrs.
Roosevelt said. 1T is possible that
the Senator may be wondering
whether the people are awakening
and moving faster than Congress?
It isn't very profitable to discuss
whether several years ago the mill.
tary branches Of the service recon-
mended something or not. There
must have been discussion about It,
or 1t would not be brought UP by
the Senator"
Mrs. Roosevelt said perhaps he
is coming to realize that the people
of the country, because of the stress
of the times, are going to take more
minute interest in what actually
happens, not only in the fortification
of Guam, but in all the things which
concern our Nation and the rest Of
the world"
At his Clinton (Mass) home. Sen
ator Walsh said, on learning of Mrs.
Roosevelt's remarks, Il don't think
they call for any answer from me-"
He said that he did not hear the
broadcast.

It is impossible to say just how

points out, since "the kids are crazy

We're scared stiff that they will
be captured by the Communists or
some silver shirt outfit" she said.
With this IN mind, she and her col
leagues have asked that every city
