'f'Biq.Bill"- Tilden Returned;, to Position On- American .1 ennis earn . - m : mm s a ' t ffiENETSU TO MEET HOB PARIS, July 25. ( AP) Big .11 Tilden is going to play calnst France for the Davis cup ter all. He was reinstated this after- ion just as suddenly as be was inked out a week ago. He was rourht back: into the fold to iease the French, according to Jamuel H. Collom, president of he United states lawn tennis as bciatlon, who took personal re- bonslbility for removing the ban fbich the New York committee paposed. During the week of banishment, rench tennis officials went to nited States ambassador Myron . Herrlek and it was through his in port unities that the reinstate ment .was brought about. ' r Frenchnian Still Peeved When Informed that Tilden was to play, Rene LaCoste, his French ival, said that his decision not to o to the United States to defend Is American championship in Sep tember would not be affected. La oste had announced his decision o default the united states utie immediately "after the United States lawn tennis association de clined to accede to a plea from the French tennis federation that Til- Jen be allowed to play. In making bis totally uaexpec- ed announcement Collom issued he following statement: : "In response to the most urgent requests of the French lawn ten is leaerauon mti we anouia noi jdeprlve French tennis lovers of jtbeir opportunity of seeing one of khe greatest players in. the world an competition, I have decided to ' a 11 m A tha rantialHI1itv t siitK.I urixing jar. wear io piay i uaen on Tilden Keeps Mom Tilden, for his part, would say nothing. Until a late hour to nlrht he took the nosltion that he pad not been officially Informed and therefore had nothing to say. i Collom bad more of a smile on his face as he made the announce ment than has been observed since his arrival. People la New York, he said. did not understand the feeling which has arisen in France over Tildens disbarment. Partly this feeling Is a sporting one that the French won the Da vis cup irom tne strongest team America could Dut into thn rioM against them and naturally if they hold It or lose It this week they would like to have it known they again beat or were defeated by the Americans' best, Collom pointed out. v r Money Chief Reason But there Is another aspect of the Question, an asnect inwnin. ble from amateur as well as pro fession si undertakings in the realm of snorts money. Espe cially to care for their first Davis cup crowd the French built a large stadium and without Tilden they certainly; would not be able to fill It this year. Collom said. ' The charges formulated against Tilden because of the articles he wrote at Wimbledon, which were the basis of banning him last week, still stand, Collom said, adding that Tilden will have to answer them when he gets home. Meanwhile, to keep peace in the International family he will be al lowed to play. '.; The lanky American ace went through several hard practice sets this afternoon as did all of -his team mates. The four Frenchmen who won the cup also were busy with their racquets on the courts at Auteull where the challenge round Is to start on Friday NEW YORK, July 25.

Klamath News. Tom Hides Out To Sleep Last Sleep Before Fight FAIRHAVEN, N. N.. July 25 (AP) Somewhere In this imme diate vicinity. Tom Heeney, confi dent .. of victory, piled into bed early tonight for his last sleep before engaging Gene Tunney in his quest of the world's heavy weight championship in the Yan kee stadium tomorrow night. To morrow morning he leaves, with his training retinue, for New York, making the trip on a yacht. He will arrive there Just in time to weigh in at 2 p. m. All sorts of rumors floated around the deserted camp concern ing Heeney 's ? whereabouts today and just where he slept tonight. The official communique from the challenger's general staff said he slept on a yacht anchored in the wide reaches of the Shrewsbury river. W also was reported that he spent the day on the yacht. How ever, observers for the little group of newspaper correspondents still hanging around, with a lone cam era man, reported that the sturdy gladiator spent tonight in the lit tle yellow cottage he has occupied all during his training campaign. The story that he slept elsewhere was circulated merely to keep un desirable visitors away from the cottage. Instead of spending the day on the yacht, floating around the Shrewsbury, Heeney loafed-the en tire afternoon on the beach three miles away, in company with hfi trio of brothers who came on from New Zealand for the. fight, Eddie Harvey, brother of his American manager, Phil Mercurio, one of his sparring boys, and Jimmy Hen nessey, the trainer. The shaggy New Zealand challenger sprawled his massive frame under a big beach umbrella and remained there until dinner time. Heeney was nowhere In sight from morning until dusk. During his absence, a cablegram came from Prime 'Minister Coates New Zealand wishing Tom the best of luck and all that sort of thing. One of the startling develop ments of the day was the news that Heeney went to Redbank yes terday for a hair cut and shave. the last scraping before the bat tie. In submitting to the shave. Heeney violated .the custom of Jack Dempsey, who used to go into the ring with two or three days growth of whiskers. EUGENE LID LEADS QUflLIFYING ROUND PORTLAND, July 25.

GOULD (Associated Press Sports Editor) AMSTERDAM, July 25. (AP) Working out with markedly im proved results on scattered fronts, the American Olympic forces in dulged in one of the most satisfac tory sessions yet on a day featured by arrival of some of their fore most rival the flnnls led by peerless Paavo. Nurmi and flav ored by unexpected revival of the Charley Paddock case. The California sprinter who donned Jiis baby blue trunks to day, at 'the Hague in a special workout arranged for a small American contingent apparently cannot avoid the spot light. Just when American officials consider ed his case closed it bobbed up again, this" time before an execu tive group of the international Olympic committee on the initia tive of General - Kentish, British delegate, and also the Norwegian representative. Informally, It is understood a somewhat heated discussion was aroused over Paddock's status, the latter being defended by the old Tale sprinter. General Charles H. Sher- rlll who is famous as the Inventor the federation. Edstrom declared no formal protest over Paddock's amateur status has been received thus far, but the I. A. A. F. pres ident tonight paid a visit to the President Roosevelt as guest of Major-General Douglas MacArthur chairman of the American Olym pic committee, and Murray Hul bert, president of the amateur athletic union, and the case was slated for probable discussion. Paddock and Lloyd Hahn, ac companied by a score of others, including all the hurdlers, high jumpers and 400-meters runners, had a good workout at the Hague where the track was some im provement over the practice field near the stadium. Paddock tried a fast 150 meters around a turn) and also starts. Hahn worked 1, 200 meters under the ever watch ful eye of his coach. Jack Ryder. The 400-meter men put on a real race in which Joe Tierney. who Is steadily improving, came. up, with a rush, beating out Ray. Barbutl by two feet. Herman Phil lips dropped out and Emll Snider, whose leg has been sore, did noi run, but Morgan Taylor, Olympid 400-meter hurdle champion, set 70 meters and all bettered nine) American member of the commit tee. Whatever transpired, however, failed to develop a formal, protest or even official consideration of the sprinter's status before the main meeting of the, international committee today this body having nothing to do with eligibility af fairs, but Kentish nevertheless laid the ' matter before Edstrom, the Swedish head of the interna tional amateur athletic federa tion. Paddock's motion picture activ ities, which formed the basis of the American probe prior to the team's departure were not the subject of the Inquiry by Kentish, who produced clippings from Lon don newspapers : dealing with a two-months old radio talk by the sprinter on the 1924 Olympic one hundred meter final. , Misunderstanding over the talk apparently has just been aired In England although it was declared a dead issue by Americans after Paddock flatly denied describing an alleged frameup on the part of the Yankee finalists to handicap Abrahams, the British hundred meter winner, with repeated false Starts.
