TENNIS
TALK
By A. c. SMITH

The exhibition matches Tues
day evening, September 0, at
Uline Arena with HamiltonI
Richardson opposing Australia's|
Malcolm Anderson and Althea
Gibson VS.. England's Christine
Truman are certain to produce
the best amateur tennis ever
seen in Washington.
The mems match will be a
preview Of the Davis Cup Chal-
lenge Round In Australia in
December. On the basis Of his
consistently fine play Richard
son is slated to be . member Of
the United States team and
the AusSies are equally certain
to tap Anderson for their team.
Christine Truman, the tall
and strong English girl who re-
gained the Wightman Cup for
Great Britain-after II years
by beating Althea Gibson is the
natural opponent for Americas
Althea in another international
match.
Not only viii the matches be
the biggest amateur tennis show
ever staged in Washington but
they will also be the most am
bilious undertaking Of the
Washington Area Tennis Pat
rons' Foundation. The WATP
faces overhead expenses Of
nearly $4,000 in bringing the
worlds best amateurs to Uline
Arena. Every tennis enthusiast
and every sports fan should be
in the gallery. !
Tickets have been reasonably
priced at 50 on a f1rst-come,
first serve basis. All profits
will go to continue the fine work
of the Washington Area Tennis
Patrons Foundation in teach
ing boys and girls the game of
tennis.

"double-faultitis," in his second
round match with Crawford
Henry against Richardson and
Alex Olmedo eventual winners
Of the National Doubles Cham
pionships. Donald served four
doubles in the last game and
seven others in the match. But,
in spite Of this, Donald is play
ing well and has stamped him
self as a greatly improved
player this season. If he does
not suffer a bad loss in the
Nationals at Forest Hills, he
seems sure to improve his cur
rent national ranking Of No. %.
Donna Floyd, Washington's
other nationally ranked player,
has picked up her game con-
siderably since her disastrous
defeat by Adrienne Ayares in
the women's Middle Atlantic.
Reaching the semifinals Of the
National Girls event last week
and losing to the winner,
Gwyneth Thomas, will insure
Donna a ranking among the
first four in girls playg Last
year she ranked No. 8.

TAX CREDITS ALLOWED
RESIDENTS AND
NON-RESIDENTS

Oo Residents of North Carolina
Under prior law, residents of
North Carolina who were required
to pay an income tax in other
states were permitted to deduct
the income so taxed under certain
circumstances.
The new law no longer permits
North Carolina resident to de-
duct income taxed in another state
but allows him to claim a credit
against his North Carolina income
tax if ~ the income taxed in the
other state was derived from
sources within that state and was
taxable there without regard to
the residence or domicile of the
taxpayer, and (2) that state would
not allow him a credit for income
taxes paid to North Carolina. The
credit allowed to the North Caro-
lima resident is the lower of ~
the amount of income tax paid to
the other state on income report
able to North Carolina, and (2) the
total North Carolina income tax
multiplied by the fraction of the
gross income reportable to North
Carolina which is subject to tax
in the other state.
For example, if North Carolina
resident earned two-thirds of his
income in North Carolina and one
third in Georgia and is taxed by
Georgia on the one-third earned
there, he may deduct from his
North Carolina tax the lower of
the tax actually paid Georgia or
one-third of the tax due North
Carolina on his total income.
(2) Nom Residents
Non-residents of North Carolina
whose states of residence permit
tax credits to North Carolinians
earning income in those states may
now deduct from their North
Carolina income tax the amount of
income tax paid to their state of
residence on income derived from
sources in and taxable to North
Carolina regardless of the source
of the North Carolina income. I'm
der prior law, the tax credit did
not apply to the tax on income
from an established unincorporated

LAFAYETTE EscADRILLE DAY
PROCLAIMED By GOVERNOR
Movie Premiere in Washington Febru.
ary 20 To Honor Four North
caroIinians Who Died in
World War

North Carolina will honor the
memory of four young men killed
in combat while serving in the
famed French flying squadron of
American aces-The Lafayette Es-
cadrille-during World War / by
observing Lafayette Escadrille Day
on Friday, February %. In recog-
ntion of the Lafayette Escadrille
and the young North Carolinians
who served in its ranks during
World War /, Governor Hodges
has designated Friday, February
%, as Lafayette Escadrille Day in
North Carolina and called it to
the attention of the people Of the
state.
On this day Warner Brothers
Studios new picture, Lafayette
Escadrille," will have its world
premiere in Washington home Of
one of these aces, James Henry
Baugham. Funds for this showing
will be used to begin a campaign
for a new youth center in Wash
ington to be named in honor of
Baugham.
The purpose of this Day will be
to give recognition to the gallant
service of James Henry Baugham
who, until now, has had little pub
lie notice for his great contribu-
tions to the defense of this Nation
and to the progress of aviation.
Baugham was the brother of Patty
Baugham of Washington, now
Mrs. Harry Mcmillan.
Baugham, one of the first Amer
leans to offer his services to
France, shot down the first enemy
plane credited to the Lafayette
Escadrille, and was killed in COM
bat on September %, 1916, after
he had established a remarkable
record as an aviator and leader.
Baugham's ability and technical
brilliance made such a lasting i'm
preston on his colleagues that he
was awarded posthumously the
Harmon Aviation Trophy in 1921,

credit, the taxpayer must furnish
a true copy of the return made to
the other state and substantiation
of the amount of tax paid.

ARTICLE III - STATE TAX
RETURNS REQUIRED FROM
MORE INDIVIDUALS

The 1857 General Assembly
made a number of changes in the
North Carolina individual income
tax law, with most of the changes
bringing State law into line with
Federal law. The preceding two
articles dealt with the major
changes made in the reporting of
income and allowable deductions.
This article deals with the new
filing requirements, changes in
personal exemptions, and the new
system of tax credits for. those in
dividuals having income in both
North Carolina and in some other
state.
The provisions discussed are eff
fective for the calendar year 1857.
WHO is REQUIRED TO FILE
AN INCOME TAX RETURN?
Under the old law, North Caro-
lima required an income tax return
from every individual whose met
income" exceeded his personal ex-
emption and also from a self-em-
ployed or professional individual
whose "gross income" exceeded
$4,000. Effective this year, North
Carolina requires an income tax
return from every individual whose
"gross income" exceeds his per-
sonal exemption, not counting addi-
tional exemptions for dependents.
Regardless of the nature of his
income or his deductions or de-
pendents, a married man living
with his wife is now required to
file an income tax return if he
an income tax return if he has
gross income in excess of $4,000;
and a single person or married
woman is required to file a return
if he or she has gross income in
excess of 1000. If this test is met,
return is required even though
no tax is due.

Democrat of New Mexico, and
Fulbright, Democrat of Arkan-
sas, had reached agreement
on their bills which were in
conflict.
Senator McNamara's sub
committee held public hearings
last month on both measures.
The Anderson bill would locate
a proposed National Air Mu-
scum, under the Smithsonian
Institution, on the Mall OPP
posite the National Gallery Of
Art. The Fulbright bill would
authorize construction of a
Cultural Center of the Per-
forming Arts at the same site.
The agreement, according to
Senator Mcnamara, is for Sem
ator Anderson's bill to be re-
ported, with the New Mexico
Senator joining Senator Full
bright in sponsoring a bill to
place the cultural center on a
7.7-acre tract on the Potomac
River between Twenty-sixth
street and the Rock Creek and
Potomac parkways, south of
New Hampshire avenue.
Senator Mcnamara said the
mechanics Of offering the leg
islation still have to be worked

dicated, to amend the Fdl-
bright bill for the cultural CEN
tor to shift its proposed location

from the Mall to the Potomac
River area.
This site in Foggy Bottom is
not the one rejected by the
House last year.
At that time the House,
spurred by Representative Broy-
hill, Republican of Virginia,
turned down a Foggy Bottom
tract between sE street, Vir-
GINA avenue, Twenty-third
street and the west leg of the
Inner Loop.
The Senate agreed to the
latter site last year and all
except Mr.. Broyhill on the
Senate-House Conference Com
mlttee went along. When the
conference report came up in
the house, however, Mr.. Broy-
hill was joined by Representa-
tives Hyde, Republican OF
Maryland. and O'Hara, Repub-
lican Of Minnesota, in fighting
the proposal.
The National Capital Plan
ming Commission fled a report
with the Mcnamara subcom-
mittee declaring that practi-
cally all Of the site on the Po-
tomac river already is owned
by the Federal government
while the so-called "Foggy
Bottom site" considered last
year is almost completely pri-
vatsly owned.
