AMERICANS WIN DOUBLES MATCH Allison And Van Ryn Rally To Defeat German Team Wimbledon, Eng., July 23.- —(U.K) —Rising magnificently in the face of defeat to beat back two match points in fourth set and three in the fifth the Americans doubles team of Wilmer Allison of Texas a.nd Johnny Van Ryn of Philadelphia today defeated Baron Gottfried Von Cramm and Kay Lund of Germany, 3-6, 6-3, 5-7, 9-7, 8-6 to give the United States a 2-1 lead in the Davis cup tie with Germany. The victory, achieved after one of the gamest rallies ever seen on Wimbledon’s classic turf, practicajly clinched the tie and the right to challenge England for the cup later this month. For in tomorrow’stwo concluding singles engagements Allison is heavily favored to defeat young Heinrich Henkel for the third point necessary to victory.

Had the Germans won today, the ■ tie undoubtedly would have been theirs, for in the other singles' match Donald Budge, the young Californian, is given no chance, against Von Crajnm. When the last point was scored, I and the exhausted players came' to the het to shake hands, the crowd of 10.000 stood and applauded. And when Allison and Von Cramm, walking side by side, left the court, the spectators tendered them a thunderous salute. And they deserved it, for more magnificent doub'es play than the tempestuous Texan and the noble German exhibited toady, never has been seen at Wimbledon. It was a match played on all the emotions. The Germans, definite underdogs at the start, played inspired tennis to shatter the Americans’ defense in the first three sets. In the tenth gajne of the fourth set they twice held match point, and twice they were beaten back.

WIDEN INQUIRY INTO LOBBYING Many “Fake” Telegrams Alleged Sent Against Utilities Bill Washington, July 23 —(UP) —Congr ssional investigation of lobbying against the Wheeler Rayburn holding company bill swung to wider ground today when chairman Hugo L. Black indicated the federal communications commission would be asked to aid and it was charged that telegrams against the bill were signed with names of persons dead "for several years.” Black, who indicated he might take the senate lobby committee to Pennsylvania and possibly New York state for “on the ground” Investigations, overshadowed the testimony of Luther Coleman, York, Pa., postal telegraph manager, and Rep. D. J. Driscoll, D„ PH., when the. committee resumed its investigation Into lobbying and "fa|ke” telegrams attributed to associated g s and electric company officials. He indicated the communications commission would ibe asked to aid in a nationwide survey of charges that congressmen were bombarded with unauthorized telegrams against the bill. He also announced that investigators were studying charges that utility officiate were

Baumgartner of Berne who I is a delegate to the conference now I being held in California n ode a mo- ' tion "That we extend an invitation to the 1938 session of the general conference, with the understanding that if the majority of the brethren favor Canada us the next conference plant, that we graciously yield in favor cf Canada."
