...Schroeder, 21-year-old Southern Californian: the Southampton Invitation Tennis Singles Tournament (this year a round robin); defeating lanky, towheaded Sidney Wood, onetime Wimbledon Champion, 3-6, 6-1, 6-4, 1-6, 6-1; at The Meadow Club, Southampton, L.I. Next day Schroeder & Wood fought through four sets against Victor Seixas and Bill Talbert to capture the doubles...
...nine of the first ten ranking U.S. tennists were in the armed forces. This year the U.S. Lawn Tennis Association has again lost its headliners, though not to the war alone.

At Sea Bright, main warm-up for Forest Hills, he was good enough in singles to get as far as the final, and it took Bobby Riggs to beat him. Last week cool Mr. Riggs beat him again, this time in a semifinal...
...death in another mass execution. Somewhere in northern Yugoslavia 90 persons were killed to avenge the death of one German soldier and one puppet policeman. Germany was reported to have sent 25,000 more troops to Yugoslavia to deal with guerrillas. The death of General Ludwig von Schroeder, Military Governor of Belgrade, was announced in Berlin. (The British claimed his death was engineered by the Gestapo because he had protested against brutal treatment of the Serbs...
