SPORTS. THE EVENING /STAR, WASHINGTON, D. €, WEDNESDAY, JULY 10, 1929. STORT Germans Provide Sensation in Tennis : Allison and Van Ryn Set Fine Example SHOWING IN CUP PLAY ASTOUNDING English, Though, Are Likely to Beat Them for Right to Meet Americans. ' hension concerning America’s prospects of getting into the Davis Cup challenge round against the French. But as the situation now stands either England or Germany will be the winner of the final round in the European zone, and meeting either neation the Ameri- can players should win, say, three out of five matches, and thus be qualified to tackle the French team for the posses- sion of the famous trophy. ‘As to the European zone match, Eng- land seems to stand the better chance of coming through, but in any case the | progress of the Germans, culminating in their defeat of Italy, has been the surprise and feature of international Jawn tennis thus far. They are taking the game very seriously in Germany, going at it with characteristic studious- ness, and it will not be long before they will stand among the leaders. French Due to Repeat. Nothing that has happened abroad warrants hope that the United States will regain ~nssession of the Davis Cup. True, the splendid rise of Van Ryn and Allison as a doubles pair is mightly encouraging, but with Tilden's tacit confession of failing form in his match at Wimbledon against Cochet, and with our youngsters yet to show outstand- ing brilliancy in singles, it would be unduly optimistic to expect much of the American team in the challenge round against France's blazing racket wielders. ‘The luster of the national singles in this country next September as an event of infernational importance is problematic just at the moment. ‘Whether or not the French stars will come over is not known to the United States Lawn Tennis Association. And nothing, it is likely, will be known until after the Davis Cup challenge round. Cochet won the national title last year, and may want another leg on the cup. And Lacoste, who has two legs on the cup, with a third to win for final possession, might be tempted to come to the United States and thus crown | his career. Task Looks Hopeless. It is difficult—in fact, impossible—to | adduce any facts which would tend to show that the United States has even a fair fighting chance to win back the title if either of the two great French- men turn up at Forest Hills for the National. For Tilden as an interna- tional champion seéms to be through. We have youngsters coming along, but their time is not yet. One__ extremely: promising doubles team, Van Ryn and Allison, is our only prop just now. Van Ryn as a singles player is coming, but is not yet there. ‘Wilbur Coan seems to be disappointing, and Frank Shields, while brilliant, very erratic. Georgé Lott may go far before he is through. ‘The great thing is that the Xom'l players are all kids, and no one may | say when one or more of them may edfll’! and begin to burn up the world. < BY LAWRENCE PERRY.

Hamas won spurs in foot ball, track, boxing, basket ball and lacrosse. Altogether, he has won nine letters.

C. NET PLAY Quarter-Finals Expected to Be Finished—Champions in Doubles Beaten. ITH singles and doubles play both in the quarter-final stage, prospects seem favor- able for the completion of the men's District of Colum- bia net champlonships in record time. According to plans of the committee, quarter-final singles were to be com- pleted today — also the unfinished doubles match between Maj. W. M. Robertson and Lieut. S. K. Robinson and Deane Judd and Larry Phillips. Quarter-finals of the doubles probably will feature the program tomorrow, semi-finals of the singles Priday, with doubles following, and finals of singles and doubles will provide an interesting week end card Saturday and Sunday afternoon. Joe Rutley, chairman of the com- mittee, expressed his appreciation yes- terday of the co-operation which has been received from the large fleld of players in getting matches under way on scheduled time and in the matter of assisting in officiating. In this respect, Gen. Robert Allen, former chief of In- fantry, has proved invaluable as referee. Gen. Allen will be in the chair for one, if not both, of the title matches. Title Holders Are Beaten. Dooley Mitchell and Gwynn King flashed the most brilliant victory yes- terday in upsetting the defending cham- plons, O'Neil and Fowler, 6—3, 6—3. King and Mitchell were on their toes and worked smoothly together, while their southpaw op:onenu were suffer- ing from a slump, due largely to. O'Neil's apparent failure to rally from the ter- rific grind of his match the day before with young McCue, Navy netman, who outsteadied the public parks veteran in the singles. Mitchell's brilliant net play stood out as the feature of the encounter. Col. Wait C. Johnson and Lieut David Hedekin romped through their unfinished match with Clarence Charest and Fred Haass. winning th> fina' < at 6—3. They had scored in the first set Monday, 5, but had dropped the sscond, 3—6, when darkness caiea a nalt. Their victory was short-lived, how- ever, for immediately thereafter they were taken into camp by Thomas J. Mangan and Robert Considine, City of ‘Washington champions, in a fourth- round match, 6—3, 5 Majs.

Deane Judd and Larry Phillips met Bob Burwell and Frank Taylor in the third round, and conquered them, 6—2, 9—17, before going into their match with Robinson and Robertson. Results: THIRD ROUND.

Fointe, 30-ali U. S. TENNIS WOMEN T FACE VETERANS By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, July 10.—England is sending a veteran women's tennis team to compete against the United States in the seventh angual Wightman Cup se- ries at Forest Hills August 9 and 10. In the British lineup will be Mrs. 8] -Barron, Mrs. Phy] L , Mrs. Peggy Saunders Michell, Mrs. Phoebe Watson and Betty Nuthall. In the doubles the British team will be exceptionally strong. Mrs. Watson and Mrs. Michell, Wimbledon cham- pion, probably will form one combina- tion and Mrs. Covell and Mrs. Shep- herd-Barron, runners-up at Wimbledon, another. But in_singles the United States will hold the upper hand with Helen Wills and Helen Jacobs as the principal hopes. The complete United States lineup has not been announced. England evened the series at three- all on British soil last year. The series consists of five singles and two doubles matches. ‘The British team will sail from South- ampton on July 20 and expect to take part in one or two grass court tourna- ments before the Wightman Cup series.

UNIOR tennis players have been inquiring about the date of the annual junior tennis champion- | i ship which was held the latter | ' part of June last year at the Chevy Chase Club. It was noticed by the committee at | the time that many of the junior play- ers who had figured prominently in school tournaments during the Spring and should have made strong bids for the District title, were unable to com- pete because of absence from the city or preparations for an immediate de- parture on Summer vacations. 80 it was decided to try holding the event either at ‘an earlier or later date this year, and since the City of Washing- ton championships and the women's league tournaments occupied the time |and attention of players and officials | as well during the early part of June, |t has been decided to run the junior | | event, for %h’ls early in September after | | most of the players have returned to | the city, but before school actually gets under way. If the junior racketers who are inter- ested in” having the event and could compete - in September, would _signify thenr interest by sending into this col- umn their own names and those of any | | of their absent friends whom they think | would care to play, it would be of ma- terial assistance in making arrange- ments for the event. No formal entries will be taken as yet, but the committee would like to know how much interest there is among the local junior players in this competition which, in other cities, is considered of paramount importance and eagerly an- | ticipated by the youngsters in whose hrnd.l rests the future of women's ten- nis. Shall Washington produce some of the stars of the next decade? ‘We have plenty of raw material here— girls with possibilities as great as any of those who are scaling the heights Boston, Philadelphia and the cities of | the Far West, But that material wop't develop in a dark corner all by jtself—it | must be exposed to the strength-giving | rays of competition—the only medlum through which a player can gain a | critical analysis of her own game, and | seeing the faults, can set about el t- ing them. There is no time in the career of a tennis player that competition is so | va'uable as during her junior years. Toen her game is in the forma- | tive stage—malleable—easily shaped | into championship mold. If Washing- ton wants to hold a prominent place in the women's net ranks of the future, the time to begin lfinow—th" people to be- | gin, are the ffinior tennis players of | 1929, and logical starting point is a | junior championship of the District. So, | XLSH:ID to you, juniors, to rally to the call! b Mrs. Samuel Burleigh Milton has inaugurated her annual swimming and life-saving classés at Chesapeake Beach, Md. She has a class of 50 members for this season. Her instructions are free. In response to requests, Mrs. Milton will alsa teach & class at North Beach. On Tuesday Mrs. Milton swam from the long pler at Chesapeake Beach to the Oscar Marshall pier at North Beach, a distance of little more than 2 miles. —— PLANE HELPS GOLFER MAKE LONGEST DRIVE! Joseph Kent of Rochester, N. Y. drove a golf ball into_the cockpit of an airplane, piloted by Pred Korte, while it was flying over a golf course at Ocean City, Md. By virtue of the plane’s in- | terceptance, the drive is believed the longest on record. The plane traveled three miles before it landed and the golf ball was retrieved. ¥ Pitch Approach Is Demonstrated BY SOL METZGER. ‘When Glenna Collett plays a itch to the green the shaft of her ron tilts forward toward the flag.

By the Associated Press. feated in his bid for the national clay court singles champlonship, J. Gilbert Hall of South Orange, N. J, today paired with Fritz Mercur of Bethlehem, Pa., in an effort | to win the doubles title in & final match with Ben Gorchakoff and Arthur Kuss- man, both of Los Angeles. Emmett Pare of Chicago, a youthful veteran of the courts, yesterday pro- | vided a fitting climax to a tournament in which upsets played a large part, when he defeated Hall for the singles championship in five sets, 3 A 4—6, 3—6, 6—1. Hall had been made the favorite because of his earlier vic- tory over Mercur, highest ranking play- er_in the United States at present. Pare, Western champion, had played two sets earlier in the day to win an unfinished _semi-final match with Bryant M. Grant of Atlanta, Ga. H turned to the courts to exhibit a bril- nt game against Hall. The Eastern- cr was outsteadied, Pare’s accurate plzcements and efficlent forecount game turning the balance. It took Hall two sets to learn that Pate must. be. kept in the back court, |, and in the final ‘set he overcame the base line repeatedly in his attempts to prevent the Chicagoan from taking the | nat for placements. Only in his ef- cient service did Hall have the edge. The closeness of the battle for the crown last held in 1927 by Bill Tilden is shown in a composite point score of the five sets. Pare won 149 points to Hall's 138 for a winning margin of 11_in the five sets. But for an error in judgment by Grant, his semi-final opponent, Pare might have reached the final round. | When rain Monday interfered for the second time with the Grant-Pare match, Grant had a lead of two sets to one and the games were deuced, 11- all, in the fourth set. Yesterday the payers decided to start the fourth set anew. The 18-year-old Atlantan won the firet two games, enough to have given him the match. Gorchakoff and Kussman won their way into the doubles final with a five- set victory yesterday over Berkeley Bell, Austin, Tex., and Louls Thalheimer, Chicago. Scores were 6—2, 6—8, 2—86, 9—7, 7—6. Hall and Mercur profited by a default when Wray Brown of St. Louis and Harris Coggeshall of Des Moines were unable to remain for com- pletion of the rain-delayed tourney.

For in ad- dition to marking the particu- lar score on the hole desired with & ring around it to designate it from the others, the scores themselves are “ringers” in that they stand out from what might have been a mediocre round of golf. Golf around Washington has gone “ringer” for during the dull months of the Summer, when manyeof the mem- bers of the various clubs are out of the | city, practically the only club competi- tions are ‘“ringer tournaments.” y usually are played in this way: The tournament will be set to start on July | 10, and will end on a given dl%gfls-l | sibly September 30. The competftors | will have all the time between those two | dates to turn in their best scores on any | hole on the golf course, the total of | their best scores to make up the “ringer” total. | “During the Summer season, when| courses are fast, some amazing ucori are turned in in the ringer competitions. | Eagles are made almost every day at one or more of the golf courses about | ‘Washington, and are duly recorded on the ‘“ringer” score sheet. Birdies are common occurrences, and it is not al- together unusual for the leader in a “ringer” tournament to register a score down in the low 60s or even in the high 50s over a stretch of two months. A couple of years back the winner of a “ringer” tourney at the Washington Golf and Country Club turned in a score of 56 for the 18 holes, which is 15 under par for the layout. Others turned in scores below 60. Ringer tournaments now are in prog- ress at the following clubs: Burning ‘Tree, Washington, Chevy Chase, Ban- nockburn and Manor, and other events | of a similar nature are sure to come | along at the other clubs during the Summer, when tournaments of this character, spread over several weeks are about the only club affairs that can be held, because 50 many of the members leave the city during the heated months. Out at Washington, the golf com- mittee is working the club “ringer” tournament in an annual manner. In- |stead of permitting the members to | shoot indiscriminately at the “ringer” | prize every day in week, competi- |tion in the tournament is confined to | week ends and holidays. | | _The theory of the golf committee is | | | i | that those who can not play through | the week will thus be placed on a par, in so far as rounds of golf are concerned, | with those who can and do play during | the week. ‘The Chevy Chase seniors have taken up the “ringer” tournament idea, and | now have such an event in progress.

Americans looking to the future in Davis Cup tennis can take a great deal of hope from the victory of John Van Ryn and Wilmer Allison in the doubles at Wimbledon. Both Van Ryn and Allison are in their early 20s, heir best years before them, and they hould be a really great team in a few years more. They are that now, when they are “right,” but they have not yet developed their game to the point whére they are consistent enough. For that reason it may be that they will not be called on to play in the Davis Cup doubles this year, as many people be- lieve they should. When they are in top form these WO young game cocks, one from New resistible. Down in Pinehurst this year they played the same kind of tennis ::.u':les, fairly murdering a Canadian Should Be Emulated. The example of Van Ryn and Alli- son should be followed by other younger players. For two years they have played doubles with each other regularly, and they are now one of the smoothest working combinations in the game. They have their off days when their strokes may not be going right, but there is nothing ever wrong with their team work. They co-ordinate per- fectly, and it would be a fine thing for :;mu:mubles game in the United States lere were more young player: = ing up like this. SR Van Ryn did not do as well in the singles at Wimbledon as I had hoped. but it was his first year of play there and too much could not be exepected of him. I predict that when he meets Brugnon again, the result will not be th;_hsnme. e Jersey youth played better ten- nis each day the tournament progressed, and against Tilden and Hunter in the semi-finals and against the English pair, Collins and Gregory, in the finals, he burned up the courts. I have said before, and I repeat it now: There is no beter Davis Cup pros- t in the United States than Van yn. He has the game to reach the top, and, best of all, he has the tempera- rgen! and k:he seriousness of purpose ou can't keep a player down when has all that.
