BROMWICH UNHAPPY
ANXIOUS TO MEET RIGGS
(Received July 10, 9.30 a.m.) LONG BEACH (California), July 9. - Missing the Wimbledon tennis tournament has made J. Bromwich, the Australian Davis , Cup player, keener than ever to beat Riggs if he meets him during the tour, thus proving his claim to the position of the world's number one player. Results from London depressed Bromwich, who feels that he could have won the singles championship and also, with Quist, the doubles. Bromwich's team mates feel that he should be sent to Wimbledon in 1940 and given a chance to fulfil his greatest ambition. American writers expressed surprise over the fact that he did not enter this year.
