Tennis Stars Play For Bond SoIes

New York, Jan. 19 - (U.P) - The U. s. Lawn Tennis Association relaxed its rules today to permit a match here January 28 between National Amateur runner up, Coast Guard Cadet John A. Kramer of New London, Conn. and Lieuten- ant Donald Budge of Lubbock, Tex. world professional champion, for war bond buyers.
 Alice Marble of San Francisco, top ranking women's pro star also will appear against Mary Hard wick, who was foremost British woman star until the war ended International Tennis in 1889.
 Officials of the association said they were sanctioning the competi- tion between pros and amateurs because of the $2,500,000 war bond goal for the event and because both Budge and Kramer were in the service.
 On other matches, Pauline Betz of Los Angeles, the National Am- ateur Womens' Champion, plays Katherine Winthrop of Boston and Miss Marble and Kramer oppose Budge and Mrs. Dorothy Round Little of Great Britain in mixed doubles.
 A fifth match may be staged if Ensign Ted Schroeder, Lieutenant Don McNeil, or Lieutenant Gard ner Mulloy are available. Schroeder and McNeill are former national champions.

Tool Lossies Lose Thriller

Waterbury Tool lassies dropped a heart-breaker in their debut in the Girls Industrial Basketball League last night at the Brooklyn Y, 20 to IS, as Joe Cavanaugh's Icgersoll quintet came through with two free throws in the sudden death period which followed two two- minute overtime periods
 Lou Kowalski was the heroine for the Clockers sinking two of four foul tries in the sudden death ses- sion. Rated one of the best per- formers in the circuit she is three quarters of the offensive strength of the Ingersoll gals.
 Tool trailed 10 to 0 at one stage of the second period and 10 to 2 at the half and looked like an easy prey for the Cavanaughmen. In the third period they came to life and in no time were on the short end of a l5-lS count. With 9 seconds of play Eleanor Albino tied the score at 18-18 as the regulation game ended with the score that way.

VALLEY RIVALS AT LOCAL GYM;
 IVY, TECH LOSE

Local High school basketball fol- lowers will get their first peek at the sensation of the alley League this season: Connie Donahue's Big Red team from Torrington. Sched- uled to meet the wilby wildcats at Grove street gym tonight. An air. tight defense has been mapped out by Wilby coaches, Tom Purcell and Tom Wagner, if the hopes of hold ing Callahan and Mele, Torrington high-scorers to a few hoops, while Lacilla Behr and Hanlon are ex- pected to find the baskets in Wilby's behalf with enough regularity to make the game interesting if not close or perhaps often enough to provide the upset of the season.
 Torrington has beaten Warren Harding twice. Naugatuck, Crosby and Ansonia while Harding walloped Crosby last night and Naugatuck gave Wilby a licking last Satur- day; facts which may indicate the strength of the visitors, who have yet to lose game in ten starts; six of them in the Valley league.
 All The Way
 Last night, Harding came to town for a game with Crosby at Wilby gym, which attracted some 300 fans who contributed to the Infantile Parlysis Fund while watching the Bridgeporters start fast and go on to win all the way. The final score 45-27 was preceded by lS-7 after eight minutes and exactly double 24 to l2 at half time. The win gave Harding a third place tie with Naugatuck. Perilli of Harding got l2 points.

Sf. Louis Girl Had
 Stort in Ice-Copodes

New Haven. Jan. I9.-Eleanor Meister, one of the leads in the Ice Capades which opens at the Arena here on February 4, was much too modest when she applied for a berth with the ice show. She merely asked to be placed in the ballet, although the St. Louis girl had al- ready won top honors as an amateur skater.
 Chester Hale, producer of Ice Capades numbers, granted her wish but she wasn't long in the ballet. He soon had her working solo, and when the show opens in New Haven she will be seen in one of the lead spots.
 Scheduled for February 1 through the 18th. the Ice Capades will be presented nightly at 8 o'clock, with matinees on February 6 and l3 at 2:30. The 3 o'clock starting time was decided upon for the convenience of spectators using public trans portation facilities.
