2 NEEDS ONE A SSET TO GAIN HEIGHTS, RICHARDS THINKS Declares Young Chicago Player Has .Essen!ia.ll Strokes to Become Tennis Ruler, but Right Now Lacks Essential Will to Win. GEORGE M. LOTT, JR. This is one of a series of stories in which Vincent Richards is analyzing the playing ability of the men chosen for this year's United States Davis Cup squad. BY VINCENT RICHARDS, International Tennis Star and Former Davis Cup NY number of tennis experts will tell you George Lott of Chi- A cago is potentially the best United States and possibly of the assets. Lott disappointed in 1929. Not in the Davis Cup challenge, for abroad and it was expecting too could beat France's great players as a cup player. But he was disappointing be- cause of his showing in the na- tional championship. He had a good chance to win, and was thought the one man Tilden real- ly had to fear. But he failed even to reach the semi-finals, losing to Wilmer Allison of Texas. That was the biggest surprise of the championship, which was filled with upsets. ‘The defeat by Allison was charac- teristic of Lott's career. No one has ever known quite what to expert of him. One week he would look like & world beater, and in the next tourna- ment he would make a dismal show- ing. ‘The one thing against him is his tem- perament. I don't say George isn't a fighter. But_ there seems a lack of something in his make-up that prevents his winning matches he rates to win. I should call it lack of the will to win. Lott doesn’t take his tennis quite seriously enough. Perhaps he should be praised for that, rather than criti- cized. The English say we take the game much too seriously, and that we don't get the fun out of it we should. But they have been changing their | Albert. ideas the last few years, and seem as thoroughly bent on winning as we are in the United States.

He is still only & youth, just finishing his college career, and it may be.the future will see & change in him. This is sincerely to be hoped, for ‘we have no better prospect in the coun- try than Lott, and if he can settle into big things country the Chicagoan. His handling of low volleys is beautiful, and he is sure ol“:g:':: the e Lott flenmn‘ 5 sl e game. in service, with a variety of twist: and pace, and off the ground he is much better equipped than most of the younger generation. His forehand, made with a lot of top spin through the use of the Western €rip, is a damaging weapon both across court and straight down the line. His bacul:‘n;c‘ie. v’:hu;c not somdmnk:‘pr quite as reliable, is also an a ‘weapon, rticularly his straight backhand, and footwork leaves little to be desired, though at times he shows an inclina- tion to lag. This may be attributed to Lott’s mental attitude, for he is cer- tainly fast enough on his feet and keeps in good enough condition to cover court with the best of them. Lott is a natural athlete. He is an T | Marlboro's first Ace. player in the world. While I don't say they are right, it is my belief that this 23-year-old pride of Chicago has it in him to become the champion of the world if he makes the most of his because he lost both his matches it was his first tennis experience much of him to believe that he on their own courts in his debut WOODBERRY-FOREST WINS OVER EMERSON ‘WOODBERRY FOREST, Va., Feb- ruary 8.—Strengthened materially by the return to its line-up of Capt. Lassi- ter, star forward, Woodberry Forest quintet routed Emerson Institute of ‘Washington here today, 39-18. The Orange team was never headed, ‘while only during the closing moments of the first half did the visiting offense cause the locals any concern. It was then that the Washingtonians, trailing by nine points, rallied to within three markers of a deadlock, intermis- sion finding the score 15-12. Led by Lassiter and Weaver, Wood- berry went on an offensive rampage in the second half. Sohuanm!

In spite of his defeat by Borotra in the challenge round last year and by Allison in the nationals, I think Lott should receive every consideration for the team this Summer. At his best he can beat any player in the world, as he showed a few years ago in trouncing Lacoste at Southampton and Tilden in one of the Southern tournaments. Lott finishes at the University of Chicago before the team leaves for Europe, and he should then have noth- ing on his mind but tennis. His studies kept him from playing in the American zone last year, and when he went to Europe he was badly short on practice. With sufficlent preparation this Spring he should give a much better account of himself. Lott showed how brilliant he could be when he won the national doubles crown with Johnny Doeg at Boston, even with Tilden .and Hunter in the fleld, and although he lost to Allison a week later some recognition should be given the fact that the match was played on a court slippery from rain, and that conditions were such as to break up the game of a player of his temperament. The week before the national doubles Lott gave Tilden a terrific battle at Newport, and if they meet this year it wouldn’t surprise me to_see George put it over “Big Bill.” In the Davis Cup matches Lott could be used in_either singles or doubles, or both. He would be a dangerous Wramr‘.’ )for hBoratr; in slngles“,] and in loubles he and Doeg could hold their own with any team. Lott has the physique and stamina to play both singles and doubles, and he certainly has the strokes, his lob in doubles in particular being one of the nost deceptive and effective in the game. George needs only to get into the proper mental attitude to be an out- standing figure in 1930, and I belleve you will find this will happen. (Next: John Hennessey.)

LEXANDRIA, Va., February 8.— Old Dominion Boat Club has decided to invite the Middle States Regatta Association to hold its thirty-ninth annual rowing meet here Labor day and representa- tives of the local organization will be appointed to appear before the meet- ing of the regatta assoclation, which will be held May 31 at the Penn A. C. in Philadelphia. The Middle States event has not been held in this section for more than a decade and the Old Dominion is par- ticularly anxious to obtain the regatta to furnish the climax for the celeb: tion of the club’s golden jubilee year. Other plans for celebrating the fif- tieth anniversary were discussed at the | monthly meeting of the club, but no definite action was taken. Many members spoke in favor of hav- ing the celebration extended over the entire rowing and canoeing season in- stead of just one day, July 15, the date of the club's organization, and in view of the su given this proposal it is e: that this will be serofusly considered at the March meeting. A monstrous intra-club regatta, fea- turing rowing, swimming and canoeing events, has been set for July 15, with a dance in the ball room of the club that night. A committee composed of J. M. Reed, chairman; T. Brooke Howard, Dave G. Corsa and Russell P. Nicholson was appointed to make arrangements for a smoker the latter part of the month, probably Monday, February 24, at which boxing, wrestling and otheér athletic events will be presented. Alvin H. Friedlander, Magnus W. L.
