A direct result of the Spring training foot ball game between Georgia and Oglethorpe was the recent contest between the Navy and University of Maryland foot ball teams at es short of touchdowns, however, it ley Bryd, coaches, respectively, of the | Navy and Maryland, improved upon the game in the South in which scores were permitted to be made and the outcome of the contests made known, In the very nature of things, there is no reason why games that are ar- ranged to the end that Spring prac- tice shall have a sort of a culminat- ing value should be worked out to a scoring conclusion. Primarily, with so many new can- didates in aetion, upon all of whom the coaches wish to have a line, the full playing strength of an institu- tion is not represented at any time throughout a game, or Jf so, only at =hort intervals. Again, neither of the colleges in. volved in & game of the sort should have any interest whatever in relative scores; the whole thing Is merely a test of material, and, secondarily, a means of enlivening practice throu the application of an intercollegiate flavor.

Glenna Collett's decision abroad and compete in the British women's championship at Harlech next May will please English golfing enthusiasts greatly, according to an English golfer now in this country on business. The Providence girl, he xavs, made a tremendous hit in England last vear, 1ot only because of her play, but by her persopality as well.

Lenglen, he says, has a grievanc against the American lawn tennis authorities in general and she de- tests In particular a certain American who was concerred in handling details of her visit to this country fn 1921. This man. according to Lenglen, lured “her into a match with Mrs. Mallory two days after she had land- ed and when whe was not in good health. Suzanne has never forgotten this and she i just as venomous no: | as she was when she received her public humiliation by the dynamic Molla_on the afternoon of August 16, 1921, She has no intention of playing in this country, according to the writer's informant.” But she does, he adds, intend to tear things wide open at St. Cloud and Wimbledon. She has not been without those warnings of an impending decline in ability which eventually come te all star athletes who have been supreme in their specialties over a period of years.
