Both former internationalists are
making comebacks in big-time ten
mis-. this season after going unranked
last year. The lanky Shields was
a captain in the air forces and the
slim, blond Wood didn't play often
enough to make the big ten.
Pair Steadily Improving.
But the two have hitched on to
the Eastern bandwagon and they
have been steadily improving Their
game and stamina through the vari-
GUS tournaments. Although they've
competed in many of the same
Journeys since 1881 when they
reached the finals of the all-Eng-
land championships, they never
again have reached the last round
of tournament together. Wood
won the English title IA years age
when Shields sprained his ankle
and was forced to default.
They nearly made it in the Jack
son Heights play three weeks age
but Elwood Cooke beat Shields In
the semifinals and then went on to
defeat Wood in the final. But yes

revenge by eliminating Cooke
