Brookline, July 22. IP) As a four-day rainstorm raged with renewed fury, the men's and women's fields in the Longwood bowl tennis tournament slowly neared the rounds of 16 today under the roofs of three widely-scattered indoor courts. Despite the weather, only two important defaults were reported.

Frank Parker, of Beverly Hills, third seeded in the men's field, withdrew, as did Mrs. Dorothy Andrus. of New York, who was top-seedd In the women's revised draw.

Only two of the three remaining women's seeded players survived.

Hope Knowles, of Philadelphia, who moved up to No. 3 when Mrs. Andrus departed, bowed to Cissy Madden, of Boston, 3-6, 7-5, 6-0. Allison has remained Idle since Monday, but the second-seeded Bobby Riggs gained a bracket on the Texan veteran by ousting John Foreman, of Chapel Hill, N. 6-4, 6-2.

Fourth-seeded Hal Surface, of Kansas City, kept pace by eliminating Art Prochaska, of Hartford, 6-2, 6-0. Gardner Mulloy, of Miami, ranked sixth in the draw, became one of the last 16 by defeating his University of Miami doubles partner, George Toley, of Los Angeles 3-6, 7-5, 6-3. The seventh and eighth seeded players, Charles Kovacs and Bobby Harman, two more products of Oakland, also qualified for that select group.

Chicago, July 22. (Pj Bid Ed Dudley, of Philadelphia, gave the Olympia Field's No. 1 course a thorough raking today with a sparkling six-under-par tune up round for today's opening of the $5,000 Chicago open golf tournament.

Playing with Walter Hagen! Dudley toured the first nine in 32, four under par, and came home in 34, two under regulation figures. His 18 hole total was a stroke under the competitive course record held by Hagen, who was even par in his practice round yesterday. Dudley never was over par on the out nine. One under par through seven holes of the second nine, Dudley slipped one over par on the 17th, then came back to run down a 25 foot putt for an eagle 3 on the 18th. Hagen displayed a game which indicated he may be in the thick of the running for top honors, won last year by Gene Sarazen.

"The Kalg" was long and straight off the tee and putted well. Sam Snead, the sweet socker from White Sulphur Springs, W. turned in a par 72 for the No. 1 course, while little Harry Cooper, of Chicago, was one-over par for the 18. Ralph Guldahl, the two-time National Open winner and three-time Western Open titleholder, did not turn In a card after a late afternoon practice round but was rated the brightest chance of taking the top prize of $1,500.

Eighteen holes will be played today and another 18 Saturday, with all competitors playing both No. 1 and No. 4 courses, the latter having a par of 35-3570. Of a starting field of 389 players, the forty-eight low professionals and twenty-four low amateurs, plus ties, will qualify for Sunday's final at 36 holes over the No. 4 course.

Record Crowds Expected To Witness Professional and College Games. Chicago, July 22. IP) The fans who want the most in sport thrills for their money will be able to get a real "buy" from football this fall, believes George Halas of the Chi cago Bears, who predicted that both the professional and collegi ate divisions are heading for a banner season, "From an attendance standpoint it looks as though 1938 will be one of the finest years the sport ever has enjoyed," said the owner and coach of the Bears. "Colleges are reporting record season ticket sales. "I'm certain the fans aren't going to be disappointed if it's thrilling, interesting games they're after.

With twenty-two men on the field, and all of them in the action on every play, football has an edge on every other sport for producing games which don't let the fans down." Halas, who nineteen years ago had the idea which gave birth to the National Professional league, said that this year's crop of col legiate rookies "is likely to produce some of the greatest stars professional football ever has de veloped." More and more professional own ers, he said, are signing small- college players who never have had much national recognition. Many of these boys, Halas believes, will outshine more highly-rated graduates to the professional ranks.

(IP) His tomato face flushed by the realization of a lifelong ambition, Charles Leo (Gabby) Hartnett, baseball Idol of millions, yesterday donned mask and pads and directed the Cubs to a 5 to 2 victory as playing manager in the first game of a double-header with Brooklyn. The 38-year-old catcher who succeeded his 14-year-long pal, Charlie Grimm, received a roaring tribute from a crowd of 25,800 when he stepped behind the plate to receive the first of Clay Bryant's fiery pitches. Hartnett failed to get a but he drew a pass in the fifth and scored on Galan's triple. He did his managing from the bench in the second game and ij tmted restore Syndicate, be. squirmed as the Dodgers won, 1 to 0.

Before leading the team on the field, the balloon bodied Hartnett talked turkey to his players for five minutes in the club house, promising to get tough with any member of the club who failed to hustle. "You've got to get out there and win," he told them. "You've got to hustle every minute, no matter what the score. The hustlers will have no trouble with this ball club. Those who don't won't last long." Gabby said that because of the double header he didn't get a chance to give the players any "real hell." "Just some light stuff," he said, "about five minutes worth.

But there will be more and stronger, stuff later on." in 1906, 7, 8, and 10. Later, he went to the New York Yankees, who had no great stars. The "peerless leader" could hardly keep the Yanks out of last place. Invariably, his team would start the season losing fourteen to fifteen straight to clincn a low second division spot all the way. Even the great John J.

McGraw, called by many the smartest manager who ever lived, couldn come up with "nothing." In his last season, his Giants groveled in seventh place. And yet, Bill Terry took practically the same club with a couple extra fellows, who skyrocketed to sudden stardom, and won the pennant the next year. Connie Mack, as great as he Is, was great when he had Ms 3enders, Coombs, Planks, Cochranes, Earn-shaws and Groves. But when he didn't have 'em, he linisned last for seven straight years.
