which opens a week from today
at Forest Hills.
The championship, in which
Budge will seek to add his sec
ond US, crown to the Australian,
French and Wilmbledon titles he
Las won this year, drew an en
try of 99 players. Sixteen ot them,
eight Americans and eigTit for
eigners, were seeded, with Aus
tralia's tworfisted John Brom
wich heading the invading con
tingent. While dnly Budge could have
topped the men's list, there was
a. slight surprise in the placing
of Helen Hull Jacobs In the No.
1 position on the US 'Women's
seeded list; The seeding commlt-
tee evidently based this rating
v on the Berkeley, Calif., veteran's
defeat . of Alice Marble in the

Miss Jacobs has not played in
competition since she sprained
her ankle in losing the Wimble

not agree to nine innings.
V As a second . point .of protest,
jan Incident reminiscent of last
Friday's long deadlock gamee is
related. It seems that the first
base umpire, after being "pushed
around" when he made a close
decision, "chased" three players
of the Western Auto team, but
the umpire at the plate allowed
them to remain in the game,
which is also contrary to the
rules as cited by the Dog House
manager. He also lists one Wes
tern Auto player as ineligible.
. The Dog House team boasts
six players with batting averages
of .300 or over: Curran ..312,
Werner .316. Gray .300, Dag
