Rich- ards, the best American pro is pure- n amateur product. If anything, pro tennis dulls the individual's playing skill. Professional golf has just the opposite effect. men vakia Unil fo ¢ The professionals dominale com- potitive golf as a class, except where the able Mr. The reverse is true of tennis, where the amateurs would take at least eight of the first ten places in any world ranking. Horton Smith, Gene Sarazen, Leo Diegel, Walter Hagen, Johnny Far-! rell and Tommy Armour probably would overwhelm any half dozen amateur golfers in a team match, even by spotting Jones to the simon-pures. On the other hand no six tennis pros could cope with a group including Lacoste, Cochet, Tilden, Borotra, Harada and Hun- ter. This is largely speculative but the case seems clear. “Tennis still is mainly an amateur sport,” a high and influential offi- cial of the U. 8. L. T. A. said to me recently. “There may be things to criticize about it and, of course, the game has gone a long way from the days when it was just a gentleman’s pastime at Newport and Southampton. The amateur game is more highly or- ganized but it also is better organ- ized; has spread to more countries than any other sport. “This amateur growth might be retarded or handicapped competition was legalized and the bars let down on pro-amateur com- petition. It would mean added| temptations for the amateur play-'s ing in a tournament where the best he could get was a cup while the ' pro collected a slice of the gate money.” Which also happens to be a point | worth digesting, if there is any in- clination to argue the case. “Unless I badly miss my guess, Glenn Wright's arm is 0 K., and about as good as ever,” remarked Bucky Harris, the Tiger pilot, af- ter watching the veteran Brooklyn shortstop let loose in an exhibition game. If so, keep an eye on Uncle Robbie's flock. ‘Wright” arm and cleanup wallop, in daily use, may mean the difference be- tween an ordinary club and a pen- nant contender.
