Bill TUden won the British tennis
singles championship today for the
first time since 1031, defeating his
sensational young countryman, WU
6 mer Allison, In the final In throe
straight sots. '
-'The dashing young Texan who on
Monday, eliminated the defending
champion,: Henri Cochet of France,
was no match for Big Bill who was
u playing In rare form. Allison put up
'.- a gallant battle, storming the net at
evory opportunity, but Tllden's flno
4 'ness, great variety of strokes and ex-
perlcnce wore too much for him. Tll
1 den's furious service also stood . him
i In good stead, winning several love
' games for him.
Big Bill after several lean years In
. Which his great French antagonists
i dominated this and the other classic
. tournaments, ascended the throne of
Wimbledon in dramntlc fashion In
' the presence of the king and queen,
: who arrived at the stadium while
TUden and Allison woro warming up.

On dark days, other factors being
equal, he may select a bright fly to
tempt trout that show no Interest
In drab "food."
The president never .uses a big
casting rod, preferring the sporting
chance whtch a light fly rod gives
the fish. The rod ordinarily em
ployed by him both In trout and
bass fishing is seven and one-half
feet long, and very light. He also
uses a 0-foot casting rod, a few
ounces heavier.
Mr, Hoover has no difficulty In
reaching the water spots sought, ' aa
he is adept at casting a long line.
In maneuvering for trout he always
fishes upstream if the weather is
not too windy.
What the well-dressed fisherman
should wear seems of little Interest

He Is all set so far as sartorial
equipment Is concerned when he

he makes no fuss over the rest of
