John Hennessey Expected to Bear Brunt of U. S. Attack Against France

Indianapolis Ace Surprises With Brilliant Work in Cup Matches. NO CHANGE IN LINEUP Same Team to Play in Finals. By United Press PARIS, July 23.—The American Cup team is ready for its attempt to wrest the most prized trophy of the tennis world away from Prance. Deprived of William T. Tilden, who has been the mainstay of America in international competition for the last six years, the younger players came through to defeat the Italian team in the interzone finals, four matches to one. The outstanding event of the Italian-American matches was the playing of Johnny Hennessey, the tousle-haired 27-year-old star from Indianapolis, who sprung the surprise of the year by defeating two of the most highly touted stars on the continent. Hennessey’s victory Sunday over P. Gaslini was just as impressive as the one he scored Friday over Baron Henri Di Morpurgo, No. 1 ranking player of Italy. Hennessey was extended in only one set when he played Gaslini. The Italian carried the American to 7-5 in the first set. but after that Hennessey won the next two sets with ease. The scores were 7-5, 6-3, 6-4. Francis T. Hunter lost to Di Morpuvgo in one of the most exciting matches of the series. Morpurgo’s service was sharp and accurate, and Hunter was aced several times in the early stages of the match. The American rallied too late to stave off defeat. The results of the series with the Italians follow: Friday—Hennessey defeated Di Morpurgo and Hunter defeated Gaslini. Saturday—George Lott and Hennessey defeated Di Morpuvgo and Gaslini. Sunday—Hennessey defeated Gaslini and Di Morpurgo defeated Hunter. French tennis experts believe Hennessey will have to bear the brunt of the battle against Rene La Coste, Jean Borotra and Henri Cochet when the Americans meet the French. There has been no indication the United States will change its line-up. That means Hennessey and Hunter will play the singles and Lott and Hennessey the doubles.
