FRENCH RETAIN
THE DAVIS CUP
"Borotra Defeats Lott and
- Cochet .Trounces Big !
Bill Tilden Sunday t '
1 aitteiiil. France. July 28 6tv !
r- Onco more the tennis musketeers of
France, have beaten oil America'
chdllentte lor the Davis cup.
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.
Borotra. the "bounding Basque" of
eld, clinched the series with, a five
set victory over George IiOtt-oT Chi
cugo. 6-7. 6-3. 3-6. 63. t-6. and CO
chet put the finishing (ouches to an
overwhelming French victory by
trouncing B:g Bill Tilden, 4-6. B-9.
6-1,7-6.
Tilden Make l.one Point
Thus the m:i ended with Tilden
chalking up the only American point
by beating Borotra In singles on
Friday. 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.

(Associated Press Sports Writer) j
An unexpected display of strength
on the part of the western clubs of '
both major leagues marked the lr.
tersectional series which wound up
vesterday after a little over two
weeks of east-west play. But it was
the opening blasts of the current
Intra -sectional warfare that provided '
yesterday's sensations and . made i
some important alterations in the ,
standing. j
In the 'National league Chicago, t
after leading the way. in the inter-:
sectional struggles with eJavea, .ic-
toricc. -and six defeats, went down ;
yesterday before the Cmclnhs,U : Jl ;

Refa& - ave made against them this
season and dropped their v frfui
straight decision to Cincinnati "--6-3
as the Reds followed their advantage
with a four-run burst.
The Robins pounded the Philadel
phia pitchers for 36 hits in a pair
of siurting matches which produced
nine home runs. They won by
scores of 10 to 6 and 9 to 6.

the prestige of the west by handing
the Boston Braves a double defeat.
They won the first game. 3-0 on
homers by fuher and Haley and Syl
vester Johnsons -three hit pitching
