In the fourth set, Allison served another double fault and Perry put two final placements past him to oreak the Texan in the fourth game, and then Perry served four thunderbolts to win the fifth at love and go into a 4-1 lead. Perry again broke him in the sixth game.

Allison rallied to break Perry in the crucial seventh game and he held his delivery at love to pull up to 3-C as Perry appeared to relax and clowned a little. Perry went out on his next service as Allison knocked one out and then netted the final point after the Texan had fought to deuce. 12th and final game. The last placement caught Budge clear out of position. ALLISON WINS FIRST Allison, playing against Perry in the final match, won the first set, 6-4.

Perry started raggedly, missing many shots which he usually gobbled up. Allison, storming the net and volleying well, broke the Briton twice to jump to a 4-2 lead. Perry won the second set, 6-4, and squared the match. Perry won the third set 7-5 and led two sets to one. The first seven games of the second set followed service and then Perry lifted his game to break Allison In the eighth and take a 5-3 lead.

Allison broke back in the next game but again failed to stave off Perry's rushes in the 10th as the Briton closed in to volley two placements after the game reached deuce. Allison had lost most of his fire of the opening set and failed to get his first service ball in. The crowd repeatedly gave Allison applause as he made many spectacular shots to draw level with Perry at 3-3 in the third set after losing the first two games. He served two double faults as Perry broke him to take a 5-3 lead and then came back to break Perry with three passing shots and then squared the set with brilliant volleys.

The request has already gone forward.

"We have got to work out some method of reducing our administration costs, which at the outset will mean assumption by the Federal authorities of a larger proportion of the burden of providing relief." Monday the mayor received semiofficial information from Govern ment sources indicating that a works program might he announced In the course of a few davs.

The city's viewpoint on the extent of the program, how the cost would be divided, and the nature of the projects, should, in the opinion of the mayor, be discussed with thy Provincial Government before action is taken. The mayor has for many months taken the view ihat urban municipalities were being asked to contribute too large a share of the cost of caring for unemployed. The question was discussed from various angles at the all-Canada conference of- mayors at Montreal last March, but the cities have been notified they must deal through the Provinciil Governments. Tn addi tion to direct relief costs, there was also the question of hospitalization i ui inuigeni SICK, medical Nirvirpq ana other similar items to be discussed with a view to lightening the burden of the urban centres. Several Saskatchewan cities had unsold bonds, and the question of finding a market for such securities and the possibility of refunding debenture debts at lower rates of interest also could be considered at the proposed provincial conference, the mayor believed.

The League of Nations confronted obstacles to- JJXZ LI ul i speaking softly and moving gently in the impasse between Italy and Ethiopia. League circles' said Britain appeared to be the only member of the council likely to call for forceful action at the session opening tomorrow. Reports from Scandinavian states, however, indicated those nations were following keenly the League's handling of the dispute and were insistent it should protect interests of smaller nations. Any persistent temporizing In the East African problem, Geneva sources said, might lead to difficul ties at the September session of the League assembly and possibly even to threats of new resignations. AWAIT BRITISH STAND Britain's stand for the special council session aroused widespread interest.

Anthony Eden, minister for League of Nations affairs, Is popularly cast in the role of "leading man." Speculation mounted as to whether Eden would demand a complete investigation of the controversy, including a pledge that Italy halt its mobilization in East Africa, or would be content with a revival of arbitration.

While 500 officers and men sailed I from Naples aboard the steamship Abbazia for East Africa, the Italian Government withheld of- flcial comment on the prospects of 1 a successful outcome of the ueneva negotiations.

Laval received from the Cabinet the power to negotiate a settlement at Geneva during the League council meeting which opens there tomorrow. LONDON, July 30 The Exchange Telegraph Agency correspondent at Addis Ababa reported today Emperor Haile Selassie had been given a proposal that Ethiopia be placed under an international European mandate of the League of Nations.

Austin started the match with the obvious intention of beating Budge with his long winded baseline game.

Austin got the break in the fourth game when Budge netted three In succession off his hnckhand. That was all the steady Briton needed to take the set full of long, dull rallies, but Austin broke the redhead in the final game for good measure. Austin won the second set 6-4, giving him a lead of two sets to none. They played colorless tennis in the first four games of the second set. Austin bore down with sharp low angled shots aimed at Budge'a backhand to win the fifth game at love.

The crowd grew almost to capac ity proportions. Austin broke the youngster again in the sixth game as Budge netted noint after noint. Budge broke back in the seventh wherein there was one remarkable rally that must have lasted for 30 returns before Budge scored with placement. Three more straight oreaKs, maamg nine in 10 games, gave Austin the set. Budge won the third set 8-6 and trailed Austin two sets to one.

CANNOT HOLD PACE Budge opened the third set by breaking Austin's service and then holding his own at love with an ace and two unreturnable cannonballs.

The American then won three straight games to save a straight set defeat. Budge smashed through Austin's serve twice to run up a lead of 4-1 in the fourth set only to lose his ac curacy and have the sure-stroking Briton sweep the next three games to square me set at lour-all. While Budge was brilliant In spurts, Austin never deviated from his sound groundstrokes to the back corners. The score went to 5-5 and then Austin held delivery in the 11th and scored four consecutive placements against service after Budge won the first point of the as could be learned at an early hour this morning.
