BY LAWRENCE PERRY. | | NEW YORK, July 3.—Whatever | Frank Wykoff, the youthful California Paddock in the Coliseum at Los Angeles, does in the Olympic trials at Cambridge next Friday and Saturday, those who see him run will have the privilege of watching a boy who gives promise of developing into the greatest sprint star the world has yet seen. If the weather continues as at pres- ent, hope may be entertained that the young whippet will be at his best, and | his best is up to the mark of human | ability to proceed with velocity over a cinder track. But if the atmosphere turns as hot and humid as Boston at- mosphere can, and if those terriffic thunderstorms boil up over the Summer skies in a manner so terrifying to Cali- fornians unused to such dramatically slam-bang unrest, then the Glendale | Sunday school teacher may run sec- | onds over what he can do.

But neither traveled up to Wykoff’s mark. | Hussey, among others, will be opposed {to the Californian at Cambridge, and since he is as keen a competitor as the | West_Coast runner, the two, if they get | out ahead, may work into a pretty fight. | Dink Templeton, coach of the Stan- |ford track team, thinks that the way for athletes to meet climatic changes as between the East and West is either to spend a long time on the East Coast or the West Coast, as the case may be, | or else to arrive the day before a meet | and hop into it.

WIMBLEDON, England, July 3.—If tennis critics thought that Big Bill Til- den’s game had slowed up when he was carried to five sets by Plerre Landry on Saturday they've revised their opinions in view of the big Philadel- phian’s great victory over Jean Borotra yesterday. While ‘paying ful tribute to the Basque’s brillilant game, experts writing in the morning newspapers conced that Tilden never had played finer ten- nis here. Samples of their comments follow: “Tilden dictated the game, compelled his opponent to play it and wore him down at it.” “Tilden was really awesome.” “Tilden played majestic tennis; he was the complete player.” “It was an altogether different Tilden court against Landry.” CHICAGO, July 3 (#).—The eight clubs of the Western League started all square today on the second half of the sea n.

The great Australian,” now 50 years old, won the Wimbledon singles title be- fore the Kansas City youth was born. Brookes is considered one of the finest tennis strategists alive although passing years have taken some of the power from his game. Despite his years he still plays a great game and hold his own in the doubles. It was at the re- quest of Big Bill Tilden that Brookes Coen into partnership with him just to give the American lad the ben- efit of his experience. The Australian-American pair won three matches before they met elimina- tion—a showing that was better than they had expected. More important to Coen than these victories, however, was the fact that he had the honor of com- petitive play with one of the most fa- mous players of all time and the oppor- tunity of absorbing from him court craft that may help Coen in developing his game. % of July community celebration Wednesday at Takoma Park municipal playgrounds, Fourth and ‘Whittier streets northwest.
