Captain Walter Pate Will
Bring Trophy To United
States Soon

MELBOURNE, Dec. 30 up -
United States team Captain Walter
Pate locked the Davis Cup in the
vault of his Melbourne Hotel Mon
day night and said he would stay
close by it until he landed the
worlds big tennis trophy safely in
New York in mid-January.
The cup, which has been in Aus
tralia since 1889, was handed over
to the United States at Kooyong
Monday after Jack Kramer showed
gloomy Australian fans that John
Bromwich had lost all claim to be-
ing the uncrowned world champion.
A little later Gardnar Mulloy, win
ming Americas fifth straight match,
showed that Dinny Pals, Aus
tralia's second-string singles play
er, was not in the same class, as
today's top flight American play
ers.
In the rain-delayed matches
which concluded the challenge
round Monday Kramer knocked of
Bomwich, 8-6, Ga, ga, and Mulloy
disposed of Pals, 6-3, 6-3, Ga.
These matches amounted to lit
tie more than exhibitions, since the
United States had clinched the vic
tory by winning the first three en-
counters, but the Kramer-Brom'
witch tussle had been publiicized If
Australia as being virtually for the
worlds singles championship.
Afterwards, Harry Hopman
veteran Australian star, writing il
the Melbourne Herald, said
Kramer confirmed the opinion
that he is number n in WORLD

normally does, went down in az

for his long-legged rival to make

many clean winners for his errors

In that set Kamer had II place

Leaks"
MOVE GAME SITE
First Time In Fifteen Years
Contest Scheduled At
Notre Dame

NEW YORK, Dec. 30.-(B'
and Notre Dame de-
cided Monday to break off
their guady gridiron relations
after their 1947 clash, there
by confirming long-growing
rumors that the two schools
have been dissatisfied over
"leaks" of tickets to specula-
tors and are perturbed over
ever-expanding gambling on foot
ball games.
That this acknowledgements
ed split was another long step look
ing towards de-emphasis of sports
in general and football in partic-
ular was seen in the simultaneous
announcement that the 1947 clash
would be moved out to the Notre
Dame campus at South Bend, Ind.
This marks the first time in Is
years the game has been taken
away from Yankee Stadium and the
first time since 1922 that the two
moleskin titans have returned to a
campus for their get-together. That
year was the ninth-and last
game of the series played at West
Point.
In many football circles here
about the return of this annual
lgridiron headliner to a college
campus for next season was hook
ed up the Rose Bowl agreement
between the Pacific Coast confer
ence and the Mid-West's Big Nine
as accomplishing measures.
1t has been an open secret in
these parts for months that Of
ficials of the Military Academy and
|Notre Dame have been somewhat
mystified and considerably upset
over the fact that, in spite of all
d idl6C AuAAAoSA "a
tickets for this yearly football
feature usually wind up in the
hands of Spectators.
This reached a head this season
when both teams came up to their
game unbeaten and the clash re-
solved itself into a national cham
pionship collision. AS a result,
thousands pored into New York
from all parts of the country to
sit in on this big one, and a crowd
of more than IA, 900 damned Yam
lkee Stadium to see the Irish and
the Cadets battle to a savage
scoreless tie.
Every precaution was taken to
insure distribution of the tickets
Ito students, school officials, alumni
and-as in the case of South Bend
observation-disclosures of the college.
Yet, specs" advertised openly
that they had tickets for sale. And
in the last few days before the
game, these specs" were asking
and getting-as much as $2oo Tor
a single ticket.
