Team Wins all From Visitors; Leave for Wimbledon By ALAN GOULD FOREST HILLS, N. Y.. May SI -(Asunder a Bcorching sun Amer ica's youthiui Davis cup wm 10 day completed a 'grand slam at the expense of the luckless Aus tralians on the turf courts of the West Side club stadium. Nothing bnt Individual prestige was at stake in the final two sin gles matches but red-headed J. Donald Budge of California and Bryan M. (BItsy) Grant, Jr., di minutive Georgia "Giant Killer,' won both to make the final score 5 to 0 In favor of the U. S. as the North American sone finals came to a one-sided conclusion. The Invaders extracted their one and only set from the wreckage of their 1937 hopes when 18-year-old Jack Bromwich rallied from 3-5 to capture tour straight games and the third set before yielding his duel with Budge by scores of 6-2, 6-3. 5-7, 6-1. ' Grant then capped his brilliant debut In the Davis cup "big time ' by trouncing the veteran Jack Crawford, 6-0. 6-2, 7-5. Until the Ansae's last-ditch rally prolonged their third set,' Grant had Craw ford more completely at his mercy than did Budge on the opening day. Budge and his California part ner. Gene Mako, had sewed up the series with a doubles' triumph the day before, but the showing today of the Americans sent this coun try's Davis cup stock soaring to Its highest level In years. The United States . squad, un der the astute captaincy of Wal ter I Pate, sails this Saturday for England and the decisive tests on Wimbledon's classic turf.. Ger many, picked to win the European sone finals, looms as a more for midable obstacle, in the opinion of experts, than the cup-holding British, now minus the services of Fred Perry after four victorious years. . . .

Fire Burns Barn And Seven Horses Barn on Hop Lee Estate Farm Is Destroyed; Draws Crowd Seven horses were burned to death in e. fire which, blazing to the sky so that it was plainly ris ible in many parts of Salem, de stroyed a large barn on the Hop Lee estate ranch, 6 miles north of Salem on the Wheatland ferry road shortly after 9 o clock Mon day night. Persons on the ranch said the fire apparently started from spon taneous combustion and that the entire barn was an inferno al most before the blase was no ticed. One elderly horse escaped from the barn and witnesses said one other was ' gotten outside but dashed back Into the flames . to perish along with the rest. A bucket brigade was organized quickly and nearby buildings were wet down so that the fire was prevented from spreading to them. Dozens of automobile parties and a number of bicyclists went to the fire from Salem and from districts nearby, and at one time there were several hundred per sons at the fire. The Hop Lee ranch Is operated by the Fook Chong company and resident managers are Jing Sun, Jlng Tet and Jing Guy.
