Today s Sport Parade I • Rag. U. ft. Pat. Office * By Jack Guenther Ry Jack Guenther United Proas Staff Correspondent New York. Apr «—(UP»-One of case society's bardleat glamor boya, the enterprising Alesia Thompson. Esq, la engaged today in combatting the horrors of one headache he didn't acquire In the Stork Club or El Morocco. To hla utter chagrin, he has discovered that in time of war tennis can be Just as nasty a word as tetanus, taxes or Tokyo. The skull pain traces directly to the newest of Mr. T's noble sports experiments. You may remember this one as Thompson’s Touring Tennis TMaa, Inc., a professional barnstorming troupe. At birth the project appeared quite healthy but upon maturing It took rank aa the moat ill-fated promotion elnce C. C. Pyle’s last and
most lamented bunion derby. Titans. Inc., has collapsed with a gentle sigh somewhere In Loa Angeles There is so little left to salvage that already the Imy. have set about burying the Imdy The tour was a brilliant idea, but all It proved was that J Donald Budge still Is the world's best tennis player and that junkets such as It are dead for the duration • it is a complete secret (hat when the odyssey expired Budge was no far in front that Whlrlaway couldn't have caught him Whether he was Inspired by his new wife, his new nose or his new waistline. I don't know But after an exceptionally lasy start he came on to win all but Ik of his 7o matches. His winning ratio was J I. Second place went to Master Robert Riggs, the former enfant terrible of the amateur game. He was all even at 36 and 36 The same average was compiled by Frank Kovacs, who originally was hired for comic relief. He split 'em down the middle at 26 and 26 The great Perry dropped to 26 and 32 while la-s Sfoefen won exactly two of his 2S matches. Ho much for the competitive side of the junket. Ax for the business side. It was conducive to hysteria. Titans. Inc., was harraxxed by every element known to mankind All the players were sick or in- I jured at one time or another. The . military took over the armories I where they were to play The equipment truck tires wore out. The trains ran far behind ached ule The log of the safari Is grim Perry hurt his elbow on opening night and went out for five days.' When he reached Texas he incurred a shoulder misery and after several starkly dramatic attempts to carry on gave up the ghost. Budge caught flu In Heattie. Riggs developed colds and Kovacs went out for 20 matches with a kink in his forearm. With Kovacs absent, the attraction lost most of Its color. The lanky cut-up lx no great tennis player but he has a knack of spewing forth tall tales to the press and he spices his game wilh plenty of calculated ententes. Once his arm went Into a sling the gate receipts dropped off, thereby proving that the market for ham is never glutted. The confusion In personnel, combined with the transportation and housing worries, added up to too much of a problem. Frantic attempts were made to acquire tires for the truck, but to no avail. Train delays meant plane trips 'and they were expensive. Once the army started drilling in armories, the Issue was clean cutclose up shop. After listening to the gathering tales of woe, Thompson cancelled the remainder of the junket. He probably sacrificed pride aa well ax money, but he just couldn't have gone on forever in face of the conditions he was meeting. Normally, I believe his Titans, Inc., would have paid Its way and earned a few dividends. Rut not this year. How much money Mr. T. lost Is not known but he guaranteed the players a 1100,000 jack-pot to be divided with the highest percentage to the winner. Since the troupe drew only 101,000 customers In 71 cities and towns, Thompson probably lost 325,000. It is possible that it coal him even more, for an average attendance of 1.300 won't pay many bills. Another aspirin on the half shell, Rastux. this man's sick! Trade in a Good Town — Decatur
Norway Clergy Defy Quisling Regime Open Revolt Against Nazi Persecutions London. April « il l’t I'rotestant clergymen of Norway.

Swedish reports said that every Protestant clergyman in Norway had resigned In the mass indignation against the Nazis and their puppets and that either a state of siege or removal of Quisling wa* anticipated On Easter Sunday, according to | the Stockholm accounts, every | clergyman read to his congregation | a statement explaining the reasons for hie resignation and t.Mlay the enraged Quisling threatened lo render the "bishop* and their follower* harmless" At the same time the Nazi-con-trolled chur.-h ministry laid down conditions tinder which laymen might preach in place of the resigned clergymen. Some reports indicated that as many a* l.ioo clergymen had reMlgned and that nearly all Norwegian school* remained closed with more than I.'Hst schoolmaster* under arrest, a* well as II officials of the Quisling ministry of education. The German radio carried statement*. by Quisling in which he assailed the clergymen for failure to support a new "political community idea" in Norway the Nazi so-call-ed new order. o Apple production In the I’nited I States has been decreasing during' the pMt thirty years, according to the Department of Commerce.
