S. 4 Bill TUNS BI6 TENNIS MATCH Wilmington Netman Turns Back Francisco Segura For Crown BY JIMMY JORDAN Chicago VP) Perseverance and experience apparently are as big attributes in national tennis championships as they are in anything else. At least, that's the way things developed here yesterday as Bill albert of Wilmington, won the national clay courts men's singles championship, and Mrs. Sarah Palfrey Cooke grabbed the women's singles crown.

Reaches Goal Both won in upsets, but that's only half the story. albert had been trying for eight years to win the crown. But the nearest the young man, ranked No. 2 nationally, ever came to it was last year when Francisco (Pancho) Segura, of Ecuador and the University of Miami, beat him in the finals. Yesterday Talbert reached his goal when he turned back "El Pancho" 6-4, 4-6, 6-2.

2-6, 6-2. Mrs. Cooke, Los Angeles, a ranking feminine player for more than a decade but out of competition for almost four years, scored the biggest upset of the meet and perhaps the biggest in the tourney's history by downing Pauline Betz of Los Angeles, 6-3, 7-5. Double Winner Mrs. Cooke not only won the singles title, but teamed with her husband.

Elwood Cooke, to take the mixed doubles championship in the third of four title matches yesterday. They defeated Talbert and Miss Betz, 7-5, 4-6, 6-3, for the undefended crown. In the other final yesterday, Talbert and Segura teamed together to defend successfully their men's doubles crown with a straight set victory over Elwood Cooke and Lt.

Barrett gained his 10th triumph in the first game at Vic Lombardi's expense with the help of Whitey Kurowski's 10th homer. A wild peg by reliefer Clyde King broke a 4-all tie in the eighth of the second tilt after Dixie Walker's grand slam homer had given the Dodgers an early lead.

CUBS SNATCH TOP SPOT IN Mill BY JAMES MARLOW Washington UP) Rep. John E. Rankin, white-haired Mississippi Democrat, said: "It would stop every damn strike in this country." He meant a bill he has introduced in Congress- He probably has a beaut of a fight ahead before he can even get it considered on the floor. Narrowing his sharp brown eyes.

Rankin said in an interview his bill means: 1. Even in a plant where a union has a closed-shop contract, a World War veteran could be hired without having to join the union or pay dues. Strike-Breakers 2. Where there's a strike even in a plant with a closed-shop contract veterans could be hired without having to join the union or pay dues. No.

1 is contrary to the kind of union management contracts which have Government recognition. No. 2 could make strikebreakers of veterans. But Rankin says veterans should not have to pay "tribute" to a union to get a In a radio address Sunday Rankin said: "If this bill passes and becomes the law of the land It will break more of the strikes in our defense industries than anything else that has been done since the war began." Rankin introduced the bill in the House. It was assigned to the House Committee on Veteran Legislation.

Rankin is chairman of that committee. The committee approved the bill. Organized labor certainly will fight the measure, bring all the pressure it can on Congressmen to kill the bill. Hot Spot But the bill places Congressmen on a hot spot: They might fear that, if they voted for the bill, labor unions would look upon them as enemies of labor. They might fear that, if they voted against the bill, some veterans would look upon them as enemies of veterans.

Rankin is shrewd. He knows the tricks and rules of Congress better most most Congressmen. He may be able to pull one out of the hat and get the bill before the House in spite of any efforts to choke it off by silence. Mrs. Annie K'Smith.

New York (JP) More kid stuff: Maybe pop doesn't take junior out to the woodshed these days and apply the razor strop just because the kid fans with the bases full, but pop apparently is determined that junior will be healthy and athletic. The latest suggestion is that kids should be encouraged to take up golf because "Its a game they can start at the age of nine and quit at 90." Freddie Corcoran, the P. G. A. tournament bureau head, already has gone on record as favoring a pro-sponsored junior championship Now brother George, president of the Carolina PGA, goes a step further with this suggestion: "I think the public courses, even the country clubs, should have free children's days.

We have been concentrating on high school and college golf; we really should go back to grammar and primary grades, that is, to encourage all youngsters, as that is the age when they should be developing a golf swing. I maintain every grammar school, every high school, and every college should be equipped with golf driving nets and make it compulsory for every boy and girl to take this golf training."
