Steve Potts Bellies
No. 5 Ranking in
Hard Courts Tennis

Steve Potts figures to be the
man to beat in the Northern
Virginia hard courts tennis
tournament, which moves into
|third-round play today at the
our-Mile Run courts.
Potts is seeded No. 5, but that
ranking admittedly is inaccu-
rate. Potts was a post entry, but
because of an error in Q Wash
ington newspaper as to the entry
deadline, his name was accepted,
although the top four seedlings
already had been made.
Charles Schertz came up
against Potts yesterday and lost,
81, Go. Top-ranked Donald
Floyed was out Of town and did
not see action. Earl Churchill,
No. 2. defeated Charles Rose,

|Hoad Appears
due for Release
From Doghouse

GLEN COVE, N. Y. Aug. 8
A.-n the Australians are to
win back the Davis Cup, one
thing seems sure-they'll have
to put young Lew Hoad back on
the varsity.
Rex Hartwig, brilliant but ex-
tplosive and panicky. definitely
can't be trusted with a singles
assignment in the two big pres
sure matches coming up-first
the Italians, then the Americans.
This was the cIearest observa-
ton which emerged from the
rain-plagued INTERIOR matches
with Japan at the Nassau Coun-
TRY Club here over the week end.
With Hoad on the bench and
possibly in Capt. Harry Hop
mans "doghouse," Hartwig was
given the important singles job
with Ken Resewall against the
lightly regarded Japanese.
He was forced to five sets
Friday by Kosei Kamo, and then

1.-THE series.
Hartwig's trouble lies not in hi
tennis but in his temperament
!; Against Miyagi he constantly
fought court tantrums, slammine
his racket, upbraiding ballboy.
and letting out loud yelps of dis.
gust.
Possessed with perhaps the fin
lest assortment of ground strokes
in amateur tennis, he let himself
get so ratified in spots-unneces-
sary spots when pressure was not
heavy-that he lapsed into errors
on the easiest shots.
It's doubtful If Australia can
trust him against Tony Trabert,
the Wimbledon champion, or Vic
Seixas in the challenge round
August 1928.
He may not even be allowed
to venture against the Italians
at Germantown, Pa, starting
next Friday, although Hopman
insists he hasn't soured on Hart
wig yet.
Nothing happened in the Jap
Ianese matches which might cause
me to alter my lineup" the
sandy haired Australian captain
said. IF Hoad is playing better
tennis at the time, / will use
him"
Rosewall and Hoad look like
sure bets for singles with Hartwis
and Hoad unbeaten this year in
the doubles.
Hopman said he was disap-
pointed in Hartwig's tempera-
ment but not his strokes. "He
played good tennis but Just let
his temper get away from him,
