Capturing both of the final singles matches yesterday. Franco retained the cup by a margin of four victories to one and left no doubt of the su periority of the French acea. Henri Cochet, and Jean Borotra. over the best America can offer In a tennis way at the present time.

Lott lost both his singles matcher- and Wilmer Allison and John Van Ryn. Wimbledon cham pions, lost the doubles to Cochet and Jacques Brugnon. France had been strongly favored to retain the cup. especially alter the defeat of Van Ryn and Allison in doubles, but America had been fig ured to put up a much closer fight for the trophy tt lost In 1037. A year ago France won by a margin of only three to two and most ex perts expected a similar score this year. , Cochet. showing a remarkable re versal of form after his poor per formance a: Wimbledon, dominated the challenge round, as he has for several years, once he solved Til den's game yesterday, he gave Big Bill as bad a trouncing as the Phil adelphian ever has taken. Lott put up a gallant fight against Borotra but the veteran Frenchman called, upon his experience in tournament play when pressed and managed to hold the upper hand. For Tilden and Borotra. the series 1 marked the end of their Davis cup careers. Big Bill was pressed into j service this year .against his own de ' sires and announced he would never play for the International trophy aain. Borotra also told the Asso I elated Press he was through with cup play.
