FOREST HILLS. N, Y, Sept. 13.-
Seeded players were expected to en-
counter stiff opposition as the mems
and women's national tennis singles
championships at West Side Tennis
Club here moved into its third day.

kenburg will make his first appear
ance in the mems event when he
meets George Richards of Los An

ranked eighth last year in Southern
California. Falkenburg ranked No.

slovakian star, Will meet Bernard

Brown, jr., will face Colin Long,
Australian Davis Cup player; Victor
SeiXas will neet Sam Match of the
University of San Francisco and
Gardnar Mulloy will tackle Sidney
Wood, onetime Wimbledon title
holder.
Louise Brough, defending cham
pion in the women's division, will
meet Mrs. Dorothy Bundy Cheney
of Santa Monica, Calf, and Mrs.
Sheila Summers of South Africa,
fourth seeded played, will face Mrs.
Virginia w. Kovacs of San Fran
cisco, Calf, in outstanding contests
among the women. Ann Gray of
Washington will play Laura Lou
jain, outstanding Junior star from
Fort Lauderdale, Fla, this after
noon.
The upset yesterday was the vic
tory of Felicisimo Ampon, cham
pion of the Philippines, over Geof1
Brown of Australia. Brown was
seeded No. 4 in the foreign list while
Ampon was unseeded. The little
Filipino overcame his bigger oppo-
nent by making superlative gets and
passing Brown as the Australian
rushed the net.
Gilbert Bogley of Chevy Chase,
Md, national junior champion, took
only four games, was beaten, 6-3,
6-1, 60, by Frank Parker yester-
day, but nevertheless showed up we'll
against the first seeded player.
Parker is a precisionist who never
loses a point because of lack of con-
centration; consequently, it is more
difficult to score games against him
than other players of his class.
In the first set, the former ma
tional champion took the first four
games from Bogley in quick order.
Then Gil began to make his back
hand drives and excursions to the
net pay off and took three straight
games. Bogley had a chance to
even the score by going to 30-40
on Parker's serve, but the Davis
Cup star bore down and pulled the
game out. The second and third
sets were all Parker.
Parker, an expert at bringing out
the flaws in an opponents game,
showed convincingly that Bogley
needs to bolster his forehand before
he can hope to meet the country's
best on equal terms. Bogley's back
hand exchanges with Parker were
almost on a par with perhaps the
best 4backhand in amateur tennis
.todaysand his service stood up well.

Roosevelt Grid Coach
Pans System Hitting
Smaller Schools
by Bill Fuchs

The Roosevelt High School foot
ball team obviously is in for an
other losing, bruising season and
Coach Phil Fox thinks something
should be done about it. The pres
ent system, says Fox, is unfair.
r "I've been advocating for the
past seven years the dividing of in
terhigh play into A and B classes, "
Fox said, putting the big schools
in one class and the small ones in
the other"
Schools like Roosevelt Central.
Anacostia and Western should be in
the B class" he continued. They
have less boys enrolled than the
other four schools. We would have
an opportunity then to play teams
with boys our own size.
do you know what we have to
do to win game in the interhigh
series? We have to concentrate on
one or two teams and put all our
efforts against them. Last year we
concentrated on Central and West
ern. We did very well against Gen.
trail runnerup to Tech for the
tile) and we beat Western"
A quick check on enrollments
bore out Foxs statements. Roose-
velt, commercial-academic school
which attracts more girls than boys,
had only 402 male students enrolled
last year as compared to 837 for
Tech. 816 for Eastern. 662 for Will
son and 619 for Coolidge.
The other three schools Fox would
like placed with Roosevelt in a
Junior loop also had shortage of
potential football material. West
ern had 511 boys to draw from,
Central, 546, and Anacostia, 583.
With the small enrolment of boys,
these schools have to dig to find
hefty athletes. Fox, for example,
will be fielding a team that averages
less than 100 pounds.
I'm really worried" he says.
about facing big teams like Eastern
and Tech. 1t doesn't seem fair to
put a team averaging 100 pounds
againts a team that averages 1875.
You wouldn't put a 125-pound boxer
in the same ring with 150-
FOUNDER"
Fox's concern appears justified,
His team will be light. young and
green. When we get past the 18th
man." he continued, we're in the
lightweight bracket He named
some of the boys who will play
regularly and their weights.
Jerry Watson will be playing a
lot of quarterback. He weighs 1876.
Oren Griffin, a second string guard,
tips the scales at 1874. George Nash.
a fullback, weighs 130. Leon Barren,
Fox's fifth backfield man and first
substitute, weighs in at 130.
On these boys, along with others
in the same weight class, rests Fox's
hopes for a measure of success this
year. They're fine group of boys,
he says. They have plenty Of spirit
and I think they have a right to
taste victory. But under the present
system they don't have much op-
portunity.
Il may have to do what Chief
Guyon did one year at Eastern.
He had a very light team and had
a game coming up with big Con-
zaga squad. He padded all his boys
with newspapers and they looked
awfully big out on the field. At
least it gave them a respectable ap-
pearance."
Fox. however, is more interetted
in giving his team a respectable
record. He thinks something should

PROCLAMATION OF CYRUS
THE proclamation Of Cyrus, Ezra
L Ills. records the happy word to
the Jews that they woull not only
return, but that the temple would
be rebuilt. Cyrus called upon all
the people who would to make offer
ings by which the temple might be
restored. Cyrus was acting under
divine impulse in this gracious and
generous proclamation.
1.-THE Lord God Of heaven hath
given me all the kingdoms Of the
earth; and he hath charged me to
build him an house at Jerusalem,
which Is in JUDAH" said Cyrus.
Ezra l:2.
Fifty thousand Jews, their hearts
rejoicing at the thought Of return
ing to the land OF their fathers, set
out on the trek Of 900 miles, laden
with gifts from the Persians for the
restoration Of the temple in Jeru-
salem. They could now sing the
song Of the Lord. and no longer did
their harps hang silently on the
willow trees.
THE DECREE OF ARTAxERxEs
THE fourth chapter Of Ezra
i brings US to the hating Of the
work on the temple, after they had
raised the magnificent sum Of ap-
proximately $500. 900, and had laid
the foundation for the temple. with
imposing ceremonies.
This delay was occasioned by the
Jealousy Of the Samaritans, who
vent to Artaxerxss. through en-
ployed counsel, and convinced him
that it would be dangerous to allow
these Jews to rebuild Jerusalem.
At first, the Samaritans proposed
that the Jews let them use the
temple in joint worship, but the
Jews feared the Samaritans and
refused their offer. 1t was then that
the Samaritans effected the delay
in the building of the temple by the
space of IA years. Meanwhile, the
Jews went forward with the build
ing of their homes and reestablish-
ing themselves and their civiliza-
ton in Jerusalem.
