Tony Trabert
Tennis Record
Tony Trabert, world amateur
champion who will appear here
on May 28 when Jack Kramer's
World Championship Tennis
Tour plays at Hedrick junior
high school gym, has compiled
one of the greatest records ever
produced by an amateur. For
those who are skeptical, take a
look at the record.
Tony is an example of the
American big game, and this
year's tour has proven it is easy
for him to make the adjust
ment to the indoor situation. He
is what tennis fans would call
a "shot maker;" he has a big
serve, a wonderful backhand
volley and a variety of passing
shots. He has a knack of adjust
ing his game to any surface or
condition. In 1955 he was able
to win the national titles on
wood, clay, grass and concrete,
and has found no problem in
adapting his game to canvas.
In his Medford appearance,
which is sponsored by the Med
ford Lions club, Tony will
clash with the gseat Pancho
Gonzales. The match will be
part of their cross-country
series for a $25,000 contract
bonus.
Following is Trabert's 1955
record:
Received U. S. Tennis Writers
Association award for "disting
uished service to tennis in 1954"
after recapturing Davis Cup
from Australia.
Won U. S. L. T. A. national
indoor singles championship.
Won Good Neighbor singles
championship.

Danny Schmidt
Recuperating
Redding, Calif. (U.R) For
mer Airman Daniel Schmidt
celebrated his 24th birthday
quietly today while recuperat
ing from an operation under
gone during three years in a
Red Chinese dungeon.
Schmidt, released last August
by the Reds to return home
where he found himself a latter-day
"Enoch Arden," was hos
pitalized a month ago at San
Francisco Veterans hospital.
His wife, Una, said Schmidt
suffered complications from an
appendectomy performed by the
Reds during his imprisonment.
Schmidt was captured by the
Reds in January, 1953, when his
plane crashed in North Korea.
After three years in a Red
dungeon on "spy" charges he re
turned home to find his 23-year-old
wife living with a lumber
jack she said she had married
in the belief Schmidt was dead.
The case was likened to the
"Enoch Arden" epic poem of
Lord Tennyson, in which Arden
returned home after being ship
wrecked 10 years to find his
wife remarried.
Una subsequently returned to
Schmidt and they went on a sec
ond honeymoon. The lumber
jack, Alford Fine, 21, married a
Redding girl last December.
Schmidt planned to return to
work at a plywood plant 10
miles south of here next week.
Una has been working at a soda
fountain here.
Una said they are quite hap
py. Hearing on Fight Fix

Los Angeles j(U.fi) State in

testimony with "fixing" fights,

state boxing investigation by

hower, who has endorsed the

House action was on a confer
ence report drafted by a Senate
House committee to reconcile
differences between authoriza
tion bills passed by the two
house. No record vote was tak
en in the House.
The bill authorizes construc
tion, of four major dams on the
Colorado river and its tributar
ies. The major dams are Glen

in New Mexico.
Curecanti could be built only
