 The government says the aver age American laborer today earns $52.5O week and has 32 child ren The United Press selected Lawrence Decker and his wife, Louise, to learn how the average worker lives

 Baby's' Bottle First
 Louise Decker arises quietly to ke.p from awakening her hus- band. She is five feet. one inch, weighs l04 pounds, has black hair and is pretty She puts fad ed white and blue cotton house coat on over her cotton nightie and fixes the o'clock bottle for the baby.
 The infant sleeps in crib be- side his parents bed in the rear bedroom. In the other bedroom are blackhaired Larry, Jr., and his blonde sister
 The Walkup apartment is on the third floor. Its floors are covered with linoleum. The maple furni- ture, some of it ill need of reup- holstering, was bought before they were married.
 When she has finished feeding the baby, Mrs. Decker calls her husband. At am. he eats a sin gle slice of dry toast and drinks one cup of coffee The family eats in the small kitchen with its old-fashioned ice-box which costs Sl a week to keep cold. Coffee IS the only extravaganza the Deckers permit themselves. They drink two pounds week. It costs 46 cents pound at chain store.
 Walks to Work
 Decker turns mos, of his pay topped overshoes-Navy surplus which cost him S5.49 at a retail store-and walks a mile to his job as checker in the shipping department of an automobile manufacturer. In paper bag he carries one egg sandwich and one bologna sandwich for his lunch. He will send out for carton of hot coffee which will cost him IS cents.

The Leech Cup matches for the
all-service tennis championship
open tomorrow at the Army Navy
Country Club with the Air Force
and Navy teams clashing. The
winner goes against Defending
Champion Army in Saturdays chal-
lenge round Matches start at pm.
both days.
Actual makeup of the playing
squads wasn't to be announced until
late today when the captains sum-
init their lists to Clarence E. Bud
dy) Dawson, president of the Middle
Atlantic Tennis Association and ON
cial referee of the matches. The
teams will play four singles and
three doubles matches.
It isn't mandatory that the cham
pion of each service be named as the
No. / player on each team, but
that probably will be the case Tor
the Air Force and Army teams
Capt. Robin Hippenstiel OF Ar
Force Headquarters won the Air
Force title here last week, While
Lieut.. Frank E. Mehner OF the
Presidio took the Army crown In
the tourney at West Point. Navy
champion, decided in a tournament
at Annapolis, is Lieut.. Kendall K
Jones of Anacostia Naval Air Sta
ton. but there are two or three
other players on the squad who
might be rated of equal ability
Possibilities for the No. Navy spot
include Lieut.. Elston Wyatt OF
Berkeley, Calf, runnerup for the
last two years, and Capt. James M
Farrin, jr., Anacostia Naval Ar
Station, who won the doubles with
Lieut.. Jones.
The Air Force team, playing for
the first time in Leech Cup matches,
will find itself favored to get Navy
tomorrow, and even might be a
choice to take the cup from Army
on Saturday. Four players who
we're on the Army team which
swept past Navy, TO, last year now
are in the Air Force. lineup. These
are Capt. Hippenstiel, Maj. Thomas
Bonner, Col. Andrew Evans and
Capt. Elson Staugaard. The Army
team has none from last year, but
the Navy squad Is well sprinkled
with Leech Cup veterans.
These are: 1t. Comdr. ]. r. Behr,
Capt. Farrin, Capt. w. E. Howard
Lieut.. Jones, Chief Yoeman E. j.
Serues, Lieut.. Richard Williams and
Lieut.. wyatt.
One reason for the Air Force
being favored over Navy tomorrow
is that its champion, Capt. Hippen-
stiel, has gone farther IN local
tournaments this summer than has
Lieut.. Jones, the Navy champ.
Both were in the same brackets In
the City of Washington and Dis
trict championship tournaments,
and in both events Lieut.. Jones was
eliminated in the middle rounds

lead the field by six strokes in the
