Prize Bull

WHEN YOUR PRIZE bull gets out in
the pasture. blows off some pent-up
steam and breaks his leg in the pro-
cess, done shoot the ole boy but do as
the Higgins Bros, Ringing, did.
Their prize herd bull, Don Lincoln
14Oth SON of DON Donald 5th out of
Advanced Lincoln 10th somehow broke
his leg while out in the pasture. so
they took him to veterinarians at Liv-
ingston, to see what could be done. A
cast, (see photos), originally designed
by DR.. Won Tour of Nebraska, but since
modified to fit the Individual patient
was used to reduce and immobiIize the
fracture until the leg healed sufficient
ly so the bull could once again navj
gate on his own power.
This bulls leg was broken between
the hook and the stifle, an apparently
simple midshaft fracture. When he laid
down, the leg rested at right angles to
his body The cast consists of long
curved pipe made out of Inch hollow

side is hinged to the circular pipe and
the shorter shaft on the inside is welded

The lower part of the shaft is threaded

This allows adjusting the cast as need

through the outer part of the hoof wall
and then wired to the plate.
This bull, when these photos were
taken, had been in the cast about 6
weeks, was very model patient, and
apparently suffered no adverse effects.
His appetite was good and he main
tanned fairly good fleshy condition.
He was fed ration of hay. grain and
a fairly high amount of bone meal.

Gilman who was out there that week, and
when he was through listening, he was an
Gilman himself, in Houston. He worked up
the hard way, and today evaluates leases
for the company.
He still plays crack weekend tennis -
but he doesn't worry about double-faults
or overdrives or if his netcord shots drop
thiSsaway instead of that. It's all for
fun.
All right. That's Part One. Now comes
the sequel. At a certain point last year our
chance to get back the Davis Cup looked
mighty black Vic SeixaS seemed to have
had it. The powers that be were getting
desperate. Of we'd only known what great
tennis Vic had up his sleeveD So at this
juncture, Savitt came to New York for a
super-private conference.
This - subject to official sanction - was
the deal: il Savitt would return to full-time
competition - and he would have had to
make the grade - he could have the No.
spot behind Tony Trabert. 1t was every
thing but an iron-clad guarantee - and
Dick once had wanted that Davis Cup
chance fiercely.
But this was another Dick Savitt. His
answer? He would play only if (D his
employer categorically insisted it was his,
Evening star., 1955-05-15

Savitt's, patriotic duty; ~ he were main
tained on the payroll on full salary; (3) his
job absolutely was not jeopardized. have
heard that these terms were finally met. But
even then, nothing came of il. Savitt -
and think wisely - figured he had had
enough.
And now it's high time to take on the
main idea of this article: Can we take the
hypocrisy out of amateur tennis? The
answer is yes.
And the feasible method is the open
tournament.
The open tournament inevitably will
come to tennis sooner or later, as il has long
since come to golf. And when this happens,
tennis will enter a period Of dynamic
expansion.
WhO would ram il. The proper governing
body for this brave new era would be the
gentlemen who so ably administer amateur
tennis today - the USLTA. And the spon-
sors would be the same. In short, the
mechanism is all set up. But now shuttle
and reorganization in player ranks would
occur.
The Pros? Most persons think OF profess
sional tennis at present as tight little road

all lark. To maintain International pitch
is matter of ceaselesS application. You
can never let down. And SO it can be, for
certain temperaments, a terrible strain.
Well, one of these temperaments belonged
to Dick Savitt, among the games best. And
when you get to the pay-of you will know
how close the US. came in 1854 to fielding
a Davis Cup team without Vic Seixas -
considered washed up by the experts -
but with Savitt.
Riding High
Dick, you may remember, had quite
year back in 1851. He won both Wimble-
don and the Australian championships,
very nice two-strike. He was riding not
only high but highest. Then he suffered
leg injury, didn't quite come through at
Forest Hills. After that he became embit-
tered over being left off the Davis Cup
challenge team in Australia after making
the trip with the squad. Dick took his
tennis hard. don't know if he had ulcers,
but he was ulcer bait.
His next year was disappointing as well.
And he got out to the Pacific Southwest
tournament in Los Angeles at the end Of
that season, and began thinking.
He also listened long and hard to Texas

must have been plain that ! was not ped
ding the virtues Of a local product while
playing tennis all year throughout the world.
(This type of evasion. by the way, is no
longer necessary. Since last year, US. ten
mis- players over 2l may be employed by
sporting-goodS firms.)
But this must make clear once more:
was not then and am not now ashamed of
having taken the money. was and am
sorry only that could not take it with the
world looking on and secret from no one.
Tennis was as much my business then as
now. and various pressures, mostly admira
bic because they were patriotic, were exerted
on me to keep it my business. Well and
good.
Naturally, was as anxious as anyone to
have the Davis Cup in this country, to have
the US. flag wave high at Wimbledon, to
keep my nations prestige in tennis foremost
in the world. But didn't want it enough
to sacrifice the needs of my wife and son in
the process. There had to be "a way -
and there was.
suppose that today there are others in
the same boat. am not going to go into
any revelations on the methods, if they
exist, employed by the latter-day Jack
Kramers to 60 on playing international
tennis and still keep afloat.
AS matter of record, however, Gardnar
Mulloy, former No. ranking amateur,
was given a Six-month suspension last
winter when accused Of rewarding certain
players in Miami tournament with more
than allowable expenses while underpaying
others.
What Are the Boys Getting?
1T SEEMS to me we must assume that some
of the boys are taking little more than
normal subsistence out of the game. And
why not? Would it be better that they live
on headlines and cups and squander the
future? And would you wish to be the first
to condemn them, to cry: tennis bum!"
or hint sneeringly of cash under the table?
wouldn't. would say, find way to get
it up there in sight.
And Ill come to that in minute.
But first let me give you an illustration
of part of what I'm talking about. don't
imagine you've heard the story and you
might find it interesting. It's about high
strung, talented guy and what tennis almost
did to him, and the decision he finally made.
If, incidentally, he hadn't made that deci-
sion, the whole Davis Cup complexion of
1854 might have been changed. was think

This was q game Virginia
should have won and didn't.
The Cavaliers played their best
game of the season. However,
they didn't take advantage Of
their breaks while Virginia Tech
did. Virginia outplayed vPI, but
couldn't muster the scoring
punch II needed to win.
On the other hand. VPI had
only four scoring chances and
capitalized on three Of them,
The closest Tech could get 10
the Virginia goal on It's own
power was the 22-yard line and
from there VPI connected on q
touchdown pass.
The Gohblers' other two scor-
ing plays came after q blocked
kick which gave vPI the ball
on the Virginia 6-inch line ct
took them two plays and an
Ioffside penalty to get over from
|there) and a tumble which Tech
recovered on the l2-yard line.
Except for these chances VPI
was In Virginia territory only
two other times, once when
Tech recovered q tumble on the
Virginia 50 and couldn't gain a
yard and the other on an inter-
|cepted pass at the Cavaliers 45
where they were stopped cold.
Coach Frank Moseley Of VPI
had nothing but, praise for his
opponents
They hit US harder than we
have been hit all year" he said.
The Virginia tackiiiag was
good. Not one but two and
three men were piling on the

Erdelatz meant what he said.
