The opening round of yester day's play produced not a sin gle upset. Frank Shields and Sidney B. Wood, a pair of vet eran New YorKers, wno were finalists at Wimbledon in 1931, and Elwood Cooke of Los Ange les, runner-up at Wimbledon in 1939, gained the jump on the rest of the field by moving into the quarter-finals, a bracket ahead of Defending Champion Bill Talbert of Wilmington, Del., and Francisco (Pancho) Segura of Ecuador and. the Uni versity of Miami, and others.

Facing the two toughest clubs in the league, Detroit and Wash ington, at the home lot, the pale hose have knocked them out six of seven and pulled to within a half game of tne third place New itorK Yannees. iney are only 4 J lengths back of the front running Tigers. Only the Philadelphia A's, 21 games behind, are entirely out of the American league race. so it's quite possible for Chicago to be an important factor in the clos ing weeks. Sox Held Lead Nobody gave Dykes' lads a tumble In the spring but they hopped away to a running start and were out front until they ran into a bad case of the jitters in the Yankee stadium in late May. everybody figured the Sox had shot their bolt and would be content to graze in their usual lower class stall. But they have managed to hover close to the first division and now threaten again. Earl Caldwell, a 40-year-old added starter, is one big reason for the Sox' rise. Although the Texan has won only five games, he has copped all of them at night when his breaking stuff is most effective. Last night he stopped Washington, 7-3, Just when the Senators had a chance to tie for the lead. Tigers Split Detroit left the door open for Washington to pull up even when they split an afternoon doubleheader with Boston. After Stubby Overmire had handed Dave Ferriss his fifth setback in the opener, 5-2, the Red Sox scored four In the 12th to trim the Bengals, 7-4.
