HARADA, RANKED NUMBER TEN, SAYS SUCCESS DUE TO COWLES

Takeichi Harada, Japanese Davis Cup player and last year a special student at the University, who has been placed tenth on the rank list of the world's tennis players cabled from London by Wallis Myers, authoritative English sports writer, attributes his success largely to Coach Harry Cowles' instruction last year.

Before coming to this country two years ago, his progress in the game was impeded by lack of teaching. Harry Cowles was one of the first to take him in hand. It was his service developed under Coach Cowles' instruction, which, according to Harada's statement, enabled him last summer to defeat Patterson in the Davis Cup match against Australia.

Coach Cowles, when interviewed, expressed pleasure at the news of Harada's entrance into the "Big Ten". "His play during the summer," Coach Cowles opined, "stamps him as the greatest Japanese player, with the possible exception of Kumagae, that has visited this country."

While attending the University last year, Harada was unable to take part in intercollegiate competition owing to his standing as a special student. His success in tournament play in the University, however, gained him the University championship.
