I can remember a remark which I heard about five years ago when T first came to play at Forest Hills. several of the Riviera One of our players, who had entered tournaments and who had seen all of the best women in action there, was describing the high standard of play and said that the woman players from our courts stood no chance against the superior tennis which was seen abroad. That was before the interest in in- ternational women's tennis was awakened. The Wightman Cup, with its invitation for competition to the English players, started the ball roll- ing, and W s impetus, and with the experiences that such compe tion has brought, women's tennis in America can be said to be on a level with that of the English and French, The winning of the Wightman Cup fc the first time on English cout proves that our ladies’ play has to the standard necessar’ ful foreign competition.

Inside Golf By Chester Horton e Power in the golf swing comes friom the body as a whole, not from any particular part of the body. This fact zets lost to many golfers in the eneral confusion that results among them from cautions about this and that. Also rhythm of action implies that the whole action of the swing must be a rhythmic action of the entire body, like plain ing true, the the- ories of launching the back swing with some par- ticular part of the body is equal to initiating pow- er at a point other than the source of power, and in the golf swing the source of power is in the body. George Duncan and, Abe Mitchell have this principle right. They tee off the back swing with a body move- | ment, which I might liken to the hub of a wagon wheel starting first and applying power to the spokes and the rim.

Miss Fishburn scored over Louise Raff, 6—4, 6—0. Jane Kincheloe, director ‘n charge of the event, states that the girls showed much enthusiasm in prepar- ing for the tournament and interest was keen in every match. She ex- pects to develop some real tennis players on her ground when the youthful racketers gain the necessary experience in competitive play. Exhibiting an unusually strong serv- ice and accuracy in placement shots, by means of which she scored re peatedly, Mary Ellen Totten won her second round encounter bandily yes- terday, eliminating Eleanor Higgs, 6—2, 6—1. Miss Totten is expected to give all comers a hard run for the title on the Virginia avenue play- ground. Montrose racketers still are in the preliminary stages of their net series. Evelyn Ager scored over Catherine Ager, 6—2, 6—1, in her initial en- counter. Ruby Riley won her opener from Polly Black by default. Miss Riley is the present title holder on +this ground. Paired with Esther Bales last year, she went to the semi-finals of the interplayground doubles. It looks as though history were about to repeat itself on the Hoover playground, where Marie Callon is marching steadily toward the title which she claimed last year. Miss Callan displayed a first-class brand of tennis yesterday when she took the measure of Helen Singer, 6—4, 6—3. Lucinda Poffoli advanced to the sec- ond round of the Plaza tourney yes- terday, blanking Katherine Boswell in 12 straight games. Vavey Azarelo, who has been appointed official referee and scorer for this tournament, um- pired the match.

Oberlander was offered a guarantee of $25,000 or 10 per cent of the net receipts of the games he participated in, which correspondingly lucrative position was placed before Tully. In addition Oberlander was to receive a $5.00 honus on signing. Wrlander told Pyle's representa- tive that he would stick to his agree- ment to hecome assistant coach at the Ohio State University for $4,000 a year.
