BUDGE, PARKER BEAT JAPANESE U. S. Davis Cuppers Take First Two Matches Os Series Lakeside. San Francisco, May 1. — (U.R> — The United States team began its quest of the Davis cup successfully by beating the Japanese in two singles matches which opened the cup series here Friday. Don Budge, red-haired Oakland i youth with the fireball service, and i Frankie Parker. New Jersey player with a wide repertoire of strokes, recorded the American victories. Parker's victory was a surprise. His victim was Jiro Yamagishi, Japan s No. 1 player, team captain, and considered the greatest Oriental since the late Satoh. They battled for .97 minutes under a hot sun before Parker won. 6-3, 2-6, 8-6, 6-1. It was a test of endurance and tne young American. former schoolboy star was the stronger. The third set was the decisive one. Once Yamagishi was within one game of winning, only to have ! Parker rush through three straight ' 1 games to go one game head. They I split the next two and then Frankie took the deciding game. Yamagishi had lots of heart but | little strength for the final set and I it was virtually a walkaway for the American. With Parker's unexpected win over the No. 1 Nippanese player, it was predicted the United States would win the tie without yield- ' ing a single match of the five to the Japanese. Budge defeated little Fumiteru Nakano, 6-1, 6-1. 6-0. Budge didn't bear down in the 1 opening set, contenting himself ’ with trying out first his forehand and then his backhand strokes. When his forhand drive began ' to fade after two sets, he fell back on the backhand and it proved strong enough to take a love set from his opponent. o i Decatur-Huntington < Tennis Match Halted i Rain brought another postponement to Decatur high school’s tennis team Friday. The team had just opened a match with I Huntington on the latter's courts ( when a heavy downpour started 1 No definite date has been set for 1 the match. ] BOOK REVIEWS lOONTINttED FROM PAGE ONE> readers.
