ISAYS AMERICA HAS A CHANCE * George Lott Predicts Davis Cup Victory For United States Chicago. June 5— (UP) —The i’nited Stabs has a fighting chance to win the Davis cup this year if the members rid themselves of the usual undercurrent of jealousy and ill-feeling. George Ixitt, veteran Davis cup doubles player, says today in the Tennis magazine, Racquet. “As far as I can remembe r there has always been an undercurrent of jealously and ill feeling among the memln-rs of the team.” says Ixitt. "If our captain. R. Norris Williams, can impart to the players a spirit of all for one and one for all, we have a fighting chance. "We should beat Australia. 3-2, in the interzone final, and meet England in the challenge round. Our singles players will be picked from .Sidney Wood. Lester Stoefen and Frank Shields. Wood is capable of beating any player in the world. Stoefen could easily win two matches against either Australia or England at the top of his form. Shield* has proved that he is at his liest on grass I courts at Wimbledon, where the i matches will be played. Perry. ! England's star, is now recognized I as the world's best player, but 1 won't concede Ferry one match I until he has won it." Cliff Sutter of New Orleans, another Davis cup player, believes Australia will defeat the United States in the interzone final 3-2 or 4-1. “Our best player. Stoefen. probably will be kept on the sidelines, leaving Wood and Shields to play the singles. I predict Crawford will beat both Wood and Shields. Wood to beat the Australian No. ?, and the doubles to he a toss up.” INDI \NA SOLON IS UNANIMOUS CHOICE TODAY (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) | his arm around the senator and |in conclusion Robinson paid I tribute to the chairman's services.

Light Rains Chicago, June 5. -4U.R) —Scattered rains over the large sections of the drought-born middlewestern -desert” freshened dusty and sun baked fields today but brought little hope to dispirited farmers. Crop experts and statisticians, estimating loss in livestock and crops at more than a billion dol-1 lars, were unanimous in predicting ■ that even heavy rains would not bring a more than 40 per cent normal wheat crop in the northwest. Showers which fell Sunday, yes terday and today were sufficient only to dampen the ground in most regions. Minnesota and the Dakotas sweltered under a blanket of clouds, however, and the weather bureau predicted more precipitation. bust pressing of problems to individual farmers was feed and water for emaciated, dying cattle. Forage crops — timothy, alfalfa and corn— as well as pastures have burned up in months of rainless weather climaxed by the record heat wave of last week. Stockyards here and at South St. Paul were jammed with shipments of skeleton-like animals for which there was no feed or water on farm or range. Two million acres of national forests in Wisconsin were thrown [ open to grazing by E. W. Tinker, regional forester. At the same time the Farm credit Association committed itself for a S2tM),(M)O loan to 18,000 farmer members of thet
