In Baltimore a week ago we had really remarkable success, but up here it's one hard job arousing enthusiasm in a bunch of highbrow codfish...
...Turnbull beat Allison and Van Ryn, who have been U. S. doubles champions or runners-up since 1931, 15-13, 0-6, 6-1, 7-5. That bracketted them with Lott & Stoefen in one half of the semifinals.

Ellsworth Vines twisted his ankle but proved it was nothing serious by making short work of little Ryusaka Miki of Japan. Next day Lester Stoefen of Texas and George Patrick Hughes of Ireland defeated Lee and Clifford Sutter, respectively. Little Henri Cochet. who had been riding a bicycle to harden his leg muscles, did amazingly well...

The Americans ran away with the field events the English winning the races by the brilliance of a few world-stars. The Americans took the pole vault with no trouble at all; Keith Brown of Yale making a meet record record of course, since pole-vault is but a child of three years in English meets. One unusual feature of the colorful contest, however, was the large number of American college graduates, among them N. P. Hallowell, Jr. '32, J. B. Hawes...
