Heckling, Boos At Tennis Exhibition
NEW YORK, Tue. (II a.m.).—Catcalls, heckling and boos marked the exhibition match between Riggs and Kramer at Fort Worth, Texas, last night, when Kramer, in a lifeless 30 minutes’ game, defeated Riggs 6—o, 6—o. Dozens filed out complaining that Riggs was just standing by, hitting only at balls that came near him. A loud chorus of booing and jeering arose when the match finished. Kramer has now won 31 of 47 games—lß of them in the last 21.
