Although the tournament had a smaller entry than in previous years, an evenly bal- anced draw was expected to develop keen competition among the twenty- eight pairs. The national doubles champions of 1918, William T. Tilden, 2d, and Vin- cent’ Richards, were paired for thel first time since their defeat by the Australians in 1919. They faced B. M. Grant and A. Y. Smith, southern champions, in the opening round. Another ‘match that attracted in- terest was that which brought Wil- liam A. Larned, seven times national all the time.

Now the com- mittce goes on record as urging strongly that this be done. The reasons assigned for not mak- i8 the extreme difficulty of enforcing such a rule. The committee would be obliged to specify the size and vigibility of such numbers, assign penalties for failure to carry out the provisions, instruct officials what should be done in case of a shortage of numbered uniforms when many substitutions are used and guard against various other contingencies. For example, on a muddy rainy day, half the numbers would become indistinguishable within a few mo- ments. Would it be necessary to withdraw players whose numbers could not be recognized until they ard has demanded that Johnny | Should put on dry jerscys with plain | Wilson of Boston and Bryan Downey ! flicted if this were not done Would the remaining wet players he left standing on the field or sent to their dressing room? If a man’s number stripped off in a play or disfigured so it could not be distinguished, would time be called until he put on a new jersey or could the opposing captain de- mand this? A question also might be raised in cases of teams the state of whose finances did not warrant the purchas of a large supply of numbered uni- forms to equip substitutes. These are only a few of the diffi- culties which have complicated the situation. The cosimittee has every ish to accomplish the desired end and the wearing Of numbers must come in the interests of the public, which has a right to demand it. Thousands of graduates throughout the country also are clamoring for it. Even men who playcd on the team themselves are at a loss, when they return the next season, to pick out the new star halfback they have been reading about, while graduates of an older period ‘are absolutely at sea in distinguishing the players. The confusion for the general public is even greater.
