...four reasons: 1) he had not secured proper permission to attend NRA hearings; 2) the company assumed he had severed connections; 3) his activities and utterances in Washington made it awkward to have him on the payroll; 4) he had preferred charges of intimidation against Vice President E.

Wily George Lott and willowy Lester Stoefen, smoothing out the soft spots in his game as the match wore on, concen- trated on Parker in the next two sets and won them both at 9-7.

Almost unbeatable on clay, he should be a member of next year's Davis Cup team, think Lott and Vines. Parker's father, Paul Pajowski, is dead. His mother entrusts him to the care of famed Tennis Coach Mercer Beasley, who fervently hopes he will get beyond his present height of 5 ft. 9½in. Beasley's greeting to Parker when he returned from six weeks abroad...
