Washington's young Cuban utility player has been released on option to Albany of tha International League The Senators let Estalella go to Albany on tho condition he bo played regularly in the outfield Estalella rame to Washington last year from Harrisburg of tho New York-Pennsylvania League aa a heavy hitting Infielder for hia team Budge's fierce driving and fine cannon-ball service were the chief factors In keeping the Americans in the play so long and wero entirely responsible for the Americana winning the first two sets The tow-beaded Mako waa alternately good and bad throughout thosa Initial aeta and sven a repetition of that mediocre form might have saved the Americans in the final stages A break through Mako gave Australia the third set with America leading B-4 and 30-16 in the fourth at Mako wilted upder pressure again There was a rapid eachanga of shot in mid-court and with American seemingly on ths upgrade after Chewford had flubbed one shot and hatted an easy sitter Into the net Mako atarted hia fatal He rushed up end mistimed hots repeatedly and presented the tenth game to the Australians by talttin three smashes out of bounds And as Mako weakened the Aue-lies turned on the pressure to taka fourth set and tie tha match at two iota each Mako rights Mako's nerves may hava cracked under the tremendous tenseness of tho situation but a fighting heart was not lacking Tho stocky Californian gathered himself grimly and desperately In the final set and with Budge's destructive overhead working beautifully tha Americans went to 4-1 by breaking through Quist And then Makn became wild again He cost Budge his service and from then on the Ausales concentrated their varied offensive on Mako Budge too weakened and the Australians ran out tho Inst five games with the loss of only few points Batter service returns a more subtle and varied gams and an Insidious lobbing attack which gradually wore down the uncertain and inexperienced all this plus a teamwork of tha highest gave the better team victory despite Budge's magnificent all-court game And today Australia seems destined for tho challenge round and there is no reason In the world why they should not face England in July an even favorite to eapturo tho Davis cup his victorious round with Jack Rock in tho finals at Hot Springs AS BEES BEAT PHILS Danny McFayden Also Figures Prominently In
