Miss Hald, however, shows remarkable ability in handling tlie racquet, and her driving in the match yesterday was excep tionally fine. She is a player who will no doubt have to be reckoned with in the women's play on the local courts in the near future. Only one match, and that in the ladies' doubles, is scheduled for this afternoon at 5 o'clock. Miss Mary &nn Bishop and Miss Janet Ettinger (R. 15) will play Miss Hald and Miss Lily Fox (Owe 15). TILDEN IS FINAL VICTOR There's a Touch of Tomorrow In All Cole Does Today TRACK SHOWINGS CITED THE MORNING OREG ONI AN, THURSDAY, JLTLY I, 1930 i i V I Out of 17 Events ""oast Men Are - Superior in Eight in OJympic Tryouts Last Saturday. "Western athletes should come out with flying colors in the final Olymr T Tic (tamei tryouts to be held at the . Harvard stadium. July 17, when the T'nited states picks its track and field men to compete In the Olympic Stmts at Antwerp. Belgium." This is the statement made by J. Fred Bohler, athletic director of fSVashingrton State college, who was -in Kortland yesterday on his way to 'Pullman, Wash., from Pasadena. where the coast trials were held Saturday. It doesn't take an oulja board expert . to figure out the way of Bohler's statement, for performances speak for themselves. Out of 17 events held in three separate sections of the coun try Saturday, western men proved themselves to be superior in eight. Bofclcr'a Men Caoaen. Bohler had a twofold purpose in attending the coast tryouts at Pasa- nsvia. One was to look after the wel fare of four northwest performers and the other as a member of the coast tryouts committee the event re. quired his presence. Two of the men whom the Washington State trainer took south were Eldon Jenne, pole vaulter, and "Jit" Smith, distance runner, both proteges of his at the J'ullman institution, while Gus Pope discus flicker of the University of Washington, and U-. A. Irving, Unl versity of Idaho weight man, were the other two. It is enough to say of Bohler's ability as a coach and conditioner of track men that all four of the men he had under his wing at Pasadena were selected to compete in the final trials in the east. Not All Men Included. Bohler states that through some error the press reports of the list of men chosen for the finals was not Complete. The dispatches did not in " '"' elude the following men who were selected by the committee: Johnny Merchant, the University of California ' Jumper, who was high point man of the meet at Pasadena Saturday with 11 points: Charles Paddock, Univer sity of Southern California sprinter, who captured both the 100 and 220 .yard dashes; Morris Kirksey, Stan j -ford university sprinter, who placed second in the two sprint events; i . : . William Yount. University of Red lands hurdler and broad jumper; H. P. Muller. University of California high jumper; Robert Kelley, Olympic club, hop, step and Jump; Donald Nichols. I'omona high school, hop, step and jump; Johnny Norton, Olympic , club, hurdler: Verle Murray, Los An ,, . , geies Athletic club, high hurdler; George Schiller, University of South ' ern California, sprinter; Wynn H. WilNon, University of California. sprinter; Charles Hunter, San Fran- cisco, unattached, 5000-meter run. It has been decided that all ath- letes who havi been chosen to com- m pete in the finals at Boston will not be allowed to enter in the junior . I ; meet, which will be held on the day - before the final tryouts. The junior meet Is being held by the Amateur - nr Athletic union and is Open to all men " who have never won a first place tn - "an Amateur Athletic union meet - before. Jene' Work Explalard. nr' One of the surprising things of the u" meet at Pasadena was the fact that - Eldon Jenne, Washington State pole vaulter, was not able to do better - - than 13 feet 6 inches, and the reason for this was made known by Bohler. After Jenne had skied himself over .. -.r-th bar at a height of 12 feet S inches, which gave him a first place and - eliminated the other vaulters. It was . decided to try for the world's record of 13 feet 5 inches. 2 ' But instead of hoisting the standard a few inches at a time it was raised ' to this mark in one jump and the " V.. extra added height proved to be too 2 much for Jenne to negotiate in three - tries. In one of the attempts, how- " ever, he was over the crossbar but scraped it off coming down. -VANCOUVER TAKES THIRD SEATTLE MAKES SERIES COSTLY ERRORS.

PLAYER ELIMINATES JAP ANESE TES.MS STAR. Excellent Chance Conceded American to Win Title in . Challenge Round. to WIMBLEDON. June 30. William T. Tilden of Philadelphia today won the final match in the British singles tennis championship tournament by defeating Zenzo Shimidzu. the Japa nese star. Tilden will meet Oerald L. Patterson of Australia in the chal lenge round for the title. Tilden won in straight seta, 6-4, 6-4, 13-11. Play began with Shimidzu serving, the Japanese player capturing the first game "with Tilden scoring only one point. Tilden speedily equalized matters, but the Japanese then forged ahead, sending the score to 4 to 1, chiefly on account of TUden's errors. Shimidzu on the other hand was play- j When the American came to the net Shimidzu several times scored with a finely placed lob. Tilden then settled down, capturing three games in suc cession. He took the lead. 5-4, by capturing his opponent's service and then won the set on his own, putting up a superior all-around game toward the close, especially at the net. The second set was in some respects a repetition of the first and it ap peared to the experts that Tilden was 1 not extending himself. It was not until the third set when he apparently thought it was necessary for him to play his best to win, that he brought forth his superior speedy service and really came right up to the net in carrying out his slashing tactics. It was understood that he was Judi ciously reserving himself for the chal lenge round with Patterson, the result of which is generally regarded as by no means a foregone conclusion. Shimidzu carried the second set to 3-1 and then to 4-2. Here Tilden ap parently decided that it was time to exert himself decisively, for he there upon took four consecutive games and the set. Almost the same story was told In the first few games of the final set. Tilden captured the first brace of games. Then the Japa nese ran the score to 5-2. During this run of victories, Shimidzu made nu merous fine shots, frequently passing his opponent, especially to the back hand, while Tilden merely ambled up to the service line and often did not even get that far. With Shimidzu only one game from a victory In this set. however, the American again be gan to exert himself and the score was speedily 5 all, Tilden giving a splendid all-around exhibition of his best form. hi the finals of the ladies' singles. Mrs. Lambert Chambers of England, the former title-holder, beat Miss Ryan of California in straight sets, 6-2, ti-1. AQUATIC SPORTS TO RULE ST. HELENS PROGRXMME SET I'OR 3-DAY MEET.
