MEXICO CITY, June 25. up
Shutting the Mexican sports deck
for the last time: about the last
fellow we expected to run into in
Mexico was the first. He was Joe
Calwell, the big, rangy golf profess
sional who was one-time pro at the
La Mesa Country club in San Diego
county and later was headman at
the Annandale Country Club in Pas
adena. When Joe was not on the
links he fairly burned 'em up and
he didn't cool off down here. He
holds the course record at the nine
hole Cuernavaca course with q 20.
The course manager told us after
we had sizzled around the course
that CalWell shares the course rec
ord with a guy named Shoemaker.
Calwell for low, Shoemaker for high.
This big golf pro is recovering
folf balls at Gt,adalaja and SELL

SPORTS PARADE

will finish the season all right AS
matter CT fact, I'm quite pleased
with our attendance. Before the
season opened, we expected it to be
off from 20 to 25 per cent. But it's
not that bad, although we had the
worst weather l can remember
during the first months of play
-Four of our clubs are ahead Of last
year at the gate, and four are off.
EXPECTED DROP
The two presidents emphasized
that everyone expected attendance
to be smaller this season because
more than 100000 potential fans
are in service and because of trans
pcrtation difficulties for fans in
certain areas. They agreed, how
ever, that attendance has been
helped by transportation restric-
tions almost as much as 1t has
been handicapped, because the re-
strictions prevented fans from
migrating from major league cities
to country ON Weekends during the
summer.
What are the prospects for play
ine next season?
Frick and Harridge said those
prospects depended entirely upon
the progress of the war and upon
government needS-not upon this
seasons attendance.

EVANSTON, H., June 25. CUP)-
For a net star with an aversion to
clay playing court surface, Tom
Brown, jr., of the University OF
California is getting along excep-
tionally well in the 59th annual
national intercollegiate tennis
tournament.
Brown has game built and
ideally adapted to the asphalt and
cement courts popular in his native
state. Clay surfaces are slower and
hence a bit detrimental to his
smashing type of game. But IL the
type of court is a handicap to the
California star he hasn't shown it
yet.
MOVES AHEAD
Brown moved into the round of
four yesterday with 6-3, 6-1 tri-
umph over Robert Kimbrell of
southern California. His opponent
today will be James Evert of Notre
Dame, who advanced with Cd,
Sc, Ga, triumph over Earl Bartlett,
smooth Tulane university
ace.
Brown won the California state
championship shortly before COM

Pacific coast champion.
