k — [broad shoulders the burden of years. Despite his straight-set victory 1 last night, the dean of tennis faces a formidable task because the Pasadena youngster showed thut ■he is rapidly regaining the form which in 1932 boosted him to the top of the world’s amateur players. The American portion of the tour, which embraces ihj'ee sweeps across the continent, will be continued at Washington, Saturday; Boston, Monday; Providence, Tuesday; Cleveland. Thursday; Chicago. Saturday, and so on. Tilden last night played with the same tire on the Garden's broad stretch of taut, green canvas, as be did during his conquering march from 1920 on. The huge crowd was moved to repeated outbursts of frenzied cheering as this veteran, well past the age for championship competition, cut down his youthful opponent without losing a set. Vines, in defeat, was far from humiliated. With less than a full week of practice on indoor courts and playing his first official match indoors and before bis first pro- i fessiona) crowd, he put up an ex | cellent fight.

Conducted as a federal civil works project as part of a national study by the federal emergency re* lief / administratlon, the surveys will I be in charge of Keller Madden, statistician for the state relief commission. One survey will be an investigation of families taken off poor re- : lief rolls from Nov. 1. 1933, to Jan. 1 30, 1934. while file other will be a[ similar study of poor relief cases I I opened or reopened during the i ~ame period. Cases opened or reopened since ■ November will be investigated to I determine why families which, were not previously on poor relief | found it necessary to apply for. public aid. Indianapolis was chosen for the survey because it is the largest city in the state and Fort Wayne' was selected as being typical of] the general situation, not intluencied by special factors, it was said. 1
