...beat Tammany's bumbling Mayor John Patrick O'Brien in next November's elections? That is the question that has plagued every good Republican and every anti-Tammany man for months & months. Their only chance. they all knew, lay in fusion. Republican Charles Seymour Whitman, New York State's onetime Governor, backed Major General John F. O'Ryan, a political non-entity but a Democrat.

Jean Borotra and Jacques Brugnon, still probably the second best doubles team in the world, beat George Patrick Hughes and H. G. N. Lee, who had been put on the British side to give Perry a rest, 6-3, 8-6, 6-2. Cochet, who had been practicing desperately since his first match, beat Austin in five sets 5-7, 6-4, 4-6, 6-4, 6-4.

What small chance the U. S. team then had left to win the Davis Cup back from France in this week's challenge round, stayed alive for one more day. George Lott and John Van Ryn played magnificently against Perry and George Patrick Hughes. With Lett's service dominating the play, they won their match 8-6, 6-4, 6-1. The first of the two singles matches that followed, between Austin and Allison, was close and exciting but Austin, against an opponent who seemed worn and overtrained, had speed enough...
