N3 i TRIUMPHANT SMILES BEAMED FROM Denrm Todd, Klamath Falls, after he captured the junior men'i singles championship at the eighth annual Herald and News Invitational Tennis Tournament held at Moore Park over the Labor Day Weekend. Eureka Netter Cops First Klamath Trophy By CLAYTON IIANNON If you don't succeed at first, try. try again. This was the theme song of Ellis Williamson today after winning the eighth annual Herald and News In vitational Tournament's men's sin gles title Monday afternoon at Moore Park. Williamson, who hails from Eu reka, California, has entered : in the last six invitational meets spon sored by the Herald and News, but has never packed away the win ner's trophy. During these, five previous trips, Ellis has played in semi-finals or the finals every year. The initial win and the 24 inch trophy was taken by Williamson when he disposed of Dr: Bill Davis, Portland dentist, in a Monday mid day net battle by scores of 6-0, 5-7 and 9-7. The opening set of the Williamson-Davis match looked as if the Eureka netter would have very little trouble in copping the men's singles play, but Davis rebounded with some superb tennis playing on his own to claim the second set. In the third and deciding set, William Ron and Davis both played at their top games with the Northern Call lornian coming out on top. Williamson's power-play kept Da vis away from the net. which proved in his early tournament matches to be his strong point. This, combined with some hair splitting shots, was too much for the Portland "'Painless Parker" to tum back. Williamson entered the finals by tripping Don Megale of Klamath Tails in one semi-final bout 6-3, 2-6, 7-5. Davis swept through his semi-final tiff by downing another Klamathitc. Ron Lowell 6-3, 6-1. . TOr-SEEDKD Williamson was seeded second and Davis third In the three-day Invitational play. Top-seeded John Holden of San Francisco was up set by Lowell in a quarter-final match 6-4. 3-6. 6-4. Lowell was fifth seeded with Megale spotted as the eighth ranking netter. In the men's do.'blcs play, the "old timers" showeo the youngsters that experience Is a prime factor in winning tight tournament bat tles. Ken Karnes, the tedding court vet, teamed with Divis to claim the doubles triumph by downing Don Megale and Jim Jackson of Klamath Falls 5-7, 7-5 and 7-5. The match opened with youth taking the first set, but Davis was sharp with some unbelievable angle shots and blistering services to win the second and third sets." Megale and Jackson, who tabbed them selves as the surprise team of the division, gave the Karnes-Davis team all they wanted in the two hour match, but the winners had Just a shade too much power and experience shot-wise for the youths. Davis and Karnes whipped Ron Lowell and Earl Brooks of Klam ath Falls in their semi-final tiff 6-3 and 6-4.

Davis and Karnes were seeded number three in the doubles draw. The 1954 Wimbeldon player came through ps expected in the wom en's singles when Barbara Brad ley of Reno turned back Alice Wa nee of Sacramento 6-1. 6-0. The single game lost to Mrs. Wanee. the 1949 national senior women's champion, in the opening set was the only, game dropped by the tal ented Reno netter in her tourna ment play. Bradley displayed some outstanding- over-all plaving ability that carried her to her first Herald and News -triumph. The Reno net miss was seeded number one, and Mrs. Wanee number two. Lowell and Bradley teamed to gether to win the mixed doubles play yesterday. The Klamath-Reno combination defeated John and Barbara Holden of San Francisco in the final matches 6-0, 6-2.

Reports Say Kramer To Sign Tennis Trio By OSCAR FRALEY I'nltrd Press Sports Writer FOREST HILLS, N.Y. (UP) Frank Sedgman's suggestion to Aussies Lew Hoad and Ken Rose wall that they turn professional seems to confirm the tennis scuttlebutt tha Jack Kramer is readying the net coup of the cen tury. Kramer, the professional tennis entrepreneur, almost has grabbed off the top amateur to inject new life into his cash and carry tours. Tony Trabcrt, the Wimbledon champion, supposedly was h I s choice this time should he win Courchesne Whips Puleo NEW YORX (DP) Bobby Cour chesne of Holyoke. Mass.. made such an impressive New York de but while stopping lightweight Sonny Puleo Monday night at St. Nicholas Arena that today he was offered another television light there on Oct. 24. His opponent wculd be feather weight Bobby Bell of Washington, DC. Courchesne was an 11-5 under dog against highly touted Puleo of Brooklyn, but he proved such an excellent boxer-puncher that all three ring officials had him ahead when the fight was slopped at 1:29 of the ninth round. Referee Harry Ebbets would not let Puleo continue because he was bleeding so profusely from cuts on his left brow and on his head above the left ear. The brow-cut required eight stltchet; that on the head, six. The technical knockout was the first kayo suffered by 23-year-old Sonny in his 16 professional bouts. It was his fourth defeat. Manager Pat Barllett said he can't decide about the Bell fight until he gets more details about a proposed scrap with ex-challenger Red Top Davis at Montreal next month. YOUNG EXPERT PETERBOROUGH.

But the word around the racquet battleground Is that Kramer will try to sign up all three Trabert, Hoad and Rosewall. There is. it Is said, a possibility that he even may try to get Rex Hartwig, the Aussie doubles de mon. Such a wholesale raid on the cream of the worlds amateur ten nis talent, if nulled off, could well wreck Australian hopes for a long time stranglehold on the Davis Cup. But with Kramer that would he merelv one of the net results. INTERSECTION AL What lw- Is primarily Interested in Is forcing international tennis authorities into sanctioning open tennis tournaments. This long has been his ambition. Yet he had no forcing lever be cause he had a mere handful of the world's top tennis names. How ever. If he should get the current big four of the amateurs, at last he would have a contingent pow erful enough to at least demand consideration. Even if the International tennis brass scorned his suggestion lor open tennis, Kramer still would be in the driver's seat. Adding Trabert, Rosewall, Hoad and Hart wig to "names" like those of Pancho Segura. Dick Gonzales. Sedgman. Ken McGregor and even such still-swatting ancients as Don Budge and Fred Perry, he could put on a series of tournaments that would threaten to run Ihe ama teurs right out of the ticket busi ness. Kramer's plans, lt is whispered, are for a series of 20 tournaments if he collars the current big lour of amateur tennis, , WINTER TOUR This would be In addition to his annual winter tour, meaning plenty of loot for all hands. Up to now, Kramer quips, the "amateurs" haven't been able to afford to turn pro. They can pick up from $10,000 to $12,000 annually "under tho table." But Sedgman, Kramer's Australian agent, ad vised Rosewall and Hoad that they would be able to make $45,000 an nually as pros. If Kramer does collar Trabcrt and the three Aussies, you can bet he'll be In business with a vengeance.. He'll have the talent then to put on some really attrac tive events and amateur tennis can't help but feel the rub. (rJtiC Has Your Home Enough Outlets for Electrical Living?
