* American Tennis Team J Faces Strong Opposition By Henry L. Farrell, (U. P Starr t'orrecpioideiit) i Philadelphia, Sept. 10. (United s Press.) —Facing the most formidable opposition of the six years In which tho trophy has turn ndefended In this country, the American tennis team j will meet the representatives of ( France in the challenge round of the Davis cup matches starting today at the Germantown Cricket chib ' Because of Rill Tilden's position as the ace of the team, tho American defenders were favored to retain tho cup, but they were only slight favor- ( Itos and it was believed generally that the two young French ’ stars had ale tter chance than Australia and .11 pan had in the five previous challenges for the cup. Big Bill Tilden ami little Bill Johnston, who went to Australia in 1921) and brought the cup hack with them and who played in all the single matches until last year, were named by Dick Williams, veteran captain of the team, to play in the four singles matches. The doubles team does not have to he named until tonight, but it is likely, although it has caused a vehement protest from Tilden, that Richards and Williams, who have been going very good, will bo asked to play the doubles. —— o — Decatur, 111. No Three Eye league games were played today. They w-re called by I J. Wylie, league president, out of respect to Louis Chedo. Christopher. 111., Decatur pitcher, who was killed by a pitched ball.

So they wonder what Is going on within the high walls of Cartier field these days, where ('apt, Clem Crowe is leading candidates for the varsity through daily drills, limbering up ex ercises, taking the stiffness out of fingers, building the confld nee in toes. On the gates are guards, placed there on orders from Coach Knute Rockne, who is determined th.it the world shall not know what Notre Dame offers on the gridiron th.-s year until the first game with Bayler, a strong Texas eleven. Rockne himself is in the Wisconsin woods, vacationing until Sept. 15. when collegiate football rules permit him to take active charge of the tralr.ing program. It is a tough scehdule aheec' ten games. And in seeking. Rockne, folly aware that a green teaam would represent the Irish this year because! of the loss of twenty-three letter men through graduation, signed again these teams which have been annually on tho Nofve Dame schedule. At home, beginning the last Sf.urday in September, the Irish will meet five teams. Bayler. Lombard. Beloit, Northwestern and Carnegie Tech. Away the Rockmen will do battle
