In ra.sc bold Tony Gnlento does got thai shot at Champion Joe Louis next summer, which now seems assured, the very least he ought to do is cut honest Abe Feldman in for about 10 ner cent of his end of the purse. Abe did a lot to help Tony's cause by the sort of fighting lie put up here last night before Referee Dave finally had to stop it eaiiy in the third round to spare him further punishment and possibly save Gai- ento from a charge of manslaughter. Bald Abe did his level best to make a fight of it, I'm convinced. If he didn't, then he took a terrible beating to make it look good.

It was quite an that, or the matches were dull. Whatever the reason, fully 24 of the 25 spectators quit watching the matches to listen to Perry. The amiable Briton didn't disappoint them. "Quite Interesting," said Fred, "All these statements that the United States has a 50-50 chance to keep the Davis Cup this year. Interesting, if true.

But I don't think it's true. anyway. But there was more to come. Perry also had his ideas about the current tour between Ellsworth Vines and Don Budge, whom Perry plays at Madison Square Garden Mar. 10.

"EUy can't be playing any part of his game. If he were playing even a shade of it, no man in the world could beat him 6-0 6-2.

There seemed little chance of side-tracking the Englishman now that he had got up a The cup's going on a trip to i head he'flnally was Australia. Look at it this way.

With Budge on the team, the U. S. could count on two points in advance. Now he's a pro, and Bobby Riggs is their IJest bet. But Riggs' strong point is playing to a man's backhand.

Australia's Bromwich has no backhand. He just shifts his racquet from one hand to the other, and has no weakness in either. Ergo, Riggs can't beat Bromwich and the U. S. can't beat Australia." The argument sounded today.

brought to the subject of the National Indoor Championship. His choice and not a very startling one, was Wayne Sabin, the Davis Cup contender and No. seed from Portland, Ore. Off Sabin's match yesterday, the swarthy Westerner is a good bet. He appears to be right in the stride that took him to five winter-circuit victories, and was more impressive than the tliree other seeded players who performed.

Promoter Mike Jacobs, who wants to match Tony with Louis, grinned from ear to ear as he watched the demonstration. "The man's a hell of an attraction," Mike croaked. "That's all I'm interested in.
