FADING GLORY?-
Net Ranks Creak with Ancients
New York, Aug. 11 W)
From the looks of things you'd
expect Uncle Sam to be wor
ried about his tennis-playing
nephews. Our international
white pants brigade is begin
ning to show frays around the
edges.
The country's best amateur,
Ted Schroeder, indicates he'll
quit chasing the pellet after this
year to tend his west coast re
frigeration business.
Gardnar Mulloy Is 34. Frank
Parker is 33. Billy Talbert is
30. These principal defend
ers of the Davis cup are "old
men" as lob and drop-shots
specialists go.
The national champion, 21-
year-old Richard (Pancho) Gon
zales, has been something short
of a ball-of-fire since he sur
prised by wading through the
field a year ago at Forest Hills.
But don't worry about the
Davis cup getting away anytime
soon, comforts Alrich Man, non-
playing captain of the U. S.
team.
"We would miss Schroeder,
naturally, or any of the other
old reliables," Man said, "but
our tennis future Is far from
bleak.
"Gonzales has everything
but temperament. He is in-'
clined to relax at the wrong
moments. When he outgrows
this lie should be one of the
greatest players this country
has ever had.
"We have a lot of other fine
looking youngsters. There's Art
Larson of San Francisco. He's
put up strong fights recently
against Gonzales and Mulloy,
looks like a real comer.
We're also counting heavily
on Vic Seixas and Herb Flam,
who are in our first ten, to
come through. In the still
younger crop we have Gil
Bogley, the junior champion
from Chevy Chase, Md and
Tony Trabert of Cincinnati.
"These are future cup mater
ial, so you see our assembly line
hasn't been idle."
While reporting the U. S.
won't lack for talent, Man did
not under-estimate the opposi
tion. "Australia and South

the success of Jackie Robinson,
Larry Doby and other Negro
stars in baseball this way: They
recognize the challenge and are
trying a bit harder than the rest.
. . . Gambling on baseball has
reached such proportions that
now the diamond addict demands
more than the names and num.
bers of his players. He wants
past performances, probable
odds, selections, etc., just like
the follower of the horses.
There have even been stars at
daily baseball dope sheets in
