Pauline Betz’ Takes Crown
SEABRIGHT, N. J, July 31 (U.

She won her finals match yesterday against Margaret Osborne, San Francisco star, 6-2, 2-6, 6-3, playing her best tennis of the tournament despite the fact that she was forced into an extra set for the first time. ; Miss Osborne later gained a measure of consolation by teaming with Louise Brough of Beverly Hills, Cal., to win the doubles title from Miss Betz and Doris Hart of Miami, Fla, 6-2, 6-3. - Miss Osborne .and Miss Brough are national woman's
Falkenberg Is Net Favorite
KALAMAZOO, Mich, July 31 (U. P)—Pvt.

Falkenberg plays Robert Steketee of Grand Rapids, Mich. in his first round’ test while Bartzen, recent winner of the national ine ter-scholastic title, drew a bye. In one of the other first round matches, Ed McGrath, New York, plays Wiilliam King of Indianapolis.

Although Gil English walloped two home runs for the Tribe in the Sabbath first game, the Saints belted Bob Logan for four round-trip-pers.
