at the expense of another seeded player.
Yesterday the grinning "out

ed out Victor Seixas, ninth-seeded
Philadelphia stylist, .in a furious
five-setter that sent ftae orest
Hills crowd home to a late supper.
Today be more than took care
of Marcello Del Bello. stocky Ital
ian Davis Cup player who was
seeded eighth among; the foreign
ers. The scores were 6-4. 6-0, 6-1,
and. it was brutal. Brink slugged
away with such terrific pace and
accuracy that Del Belli, in the
second set, made only one point in
three services. . '
There was, however, a cloud on
Brink's tennis horizon. The 1. k
of the draw demands that he face
Pancho Gonzales, the defending
champion, in his next match, and
Pancho is playing even better than
he did a year ago. -
The swarthy Los Angeles star,
fresh from two straight-set vic
tories in 4he Davis Cup challenge
round opened the defense of his
title today in a brillant display
against Jack Geller of New Roch
elle, N.Y., whom he slaughtered
6-0, 6-1, 6-2.
Eric Sturges of South Africa,
who was beaten by Pancho in last
year's final, scored an easy second
round victory over Sidney Sch

6-0.6-2.

DONCASTER, En, Aug.
The on-agaiiL off-again battlo
between American Lee Savold and
British heavyweight champion
Bruce Woodcock billed as a
world title bout was reset today
for London in the Springtime.
"I am insisting on the fight
taking place in May," said Bill
Daly, Savold's manager.
"If we win Savold will defend
the title for the Joe Louis promo
tions at the Yankee stadium
against the best American heavy
weight at the time.
The English fight -would set up
rival heavyweight champions. Ez
zard Charles, Cincinnati Negro, is
recognized as world champ in the
United States, except iaKew- Yorlt
and Virginia.' .
Original fight plans were thrown
into confusion when Woodcock
came off second best in a collision
between a truck in which he was
riding and a stout English oak tree.
The fight then was postponed in
definitely. The Romans spread the use of
irofi through Europe. -
