S Vines’ Tennis Defeats Are’ LAID TO AN EFFORT TO CURE WEAKNESS Champion Striving to Raise Trajectory of Ball in Los- ing to Allison. BY J. P. ALLEN. EW YORK, Aprii 20— “There’s nothing the mat- | ter with Vines,” declares| Samuel Hardy, who has| acted as Davis Cup team captain upon several momentous occa- sions, in answer to the writer's question. “Just remember that one swallow does not make a Summer any more than a few defeats tosses a Davis Cup playeri into the discard.” | Hardy, who knows all the players of | note on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean, not to mention the Seven Seas, is a firm believer in the tall Californian “These defeats of Vines by Allison, o my mind, are the best thing that could have happened to him. Vines is one of those players who require plenty of | practice, & sort of continuous competi- tion of the most strenuous character in order to arrive at form. T is easy to understand these de- feats of Vines, provided one is on the inside of things, so to speak,” PORTS.’ THE EVENING STAR,- WASHINGTON, D. (. WEDNESDAY, APRIL 20, 1932. Canadian Netmen Arrive Saturday 'ORONTO, April 20 (). —Cana- da’s Davis Cup tennis team will assemble at Washington Satur- day to prepare for the cup matches with the United States at the Chevy Chase Club next week. Gilbert Nunns of Toronto and Walter Martin of Regina will leave here Thursday for Washington and Dr. Jack Wright of Vancouver Is on his way eastward. The fourth member of the team, Marcel Rain- ville of Montreal, is playing this week in the Mason and Dixon cham- pionship at White Sulphur Springs, W, TENNIS KINGS AT SULPHUR SPRINGS Vines and Mangin Opponents in Quarter-Finals of Mason and Dixon Event | By the Associated P! HITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W. Va., April 20—The annual Mason and Dixon tennis championship had developed today in a “battle of cham- plons,” with Ellsworth Vines and Greg= ory Mangin drawn as quarter-final- round opponents These two stars hold the two big na- tional singles titles. Vines won the turf court crown at Forest Hills um- mer. Mangin defeated Franl ields for the national indoor championship recently. Along with Mangin and Vines. Wil- went on the tennis veteran. “Now, you gee Vines is aware that his very low trajectory is dangerous. You've seen it and know that it is shooting the ball too fine. Well, he is attempting to overcome that hazardous low trajectory. | “Now Vines is one who listens to ad- vice. He has been made aware that this | low playing of the ball may prove un-i‘ duly costly to him later on in great and important matches. So what does he do? Well, he begins to hit the ball up and it travels about a yard above the net. He just told me: ‘I can’t seem to get the ball down to reasonable height; when I attempt to change my trajectory it's always either too low or too high.’ “When you consider that Allison dearly loves the higher ball, and he gallops in for the kills like a party of kids to an ice cream treat, it is under- standatle why, at this time, the Texan | is beating the Californian. Now that largely explalins Vines' recent record. . Y own idea of it is that Vines will be all the better for these recent defeats. He is essentially more of a grass-court player than a hard-court player. He will do better, I expect, befpre the Davis Cup matches come around,” continued Hardy. “Of course, should he not strike bis true form, it will be necessary to put forward other players for the United States Davis Cup team. “Actually what is happening is that Vines is perfecting his game. In the formative process these changes will not come about without results which ap- pear to be lapses of form. Therefore it is my opinion that Vines will be a far stronger player by the time the team sails for France—or he will have made & complete blow-up.” Vines will be a member of the Ameri- can Davis Cup team that will play Canada at the Chevy Chase Club here on April 28, 29 and 30. It will be the first appearance of the national cham- pion in Washington. College Sports Base Ball. 8 Decatur (Three-Eye League), William and Mary, 5; V. M. I, 2. South Carolina, 10; Newberry, 2.

In the last |days of the now defunct Terminal | League the Washington Terminal Club | was a tail-ender. It looked strong on paper but couldn't win, This season a new manager, Bill Young, halling from Hagerstown, Md, thinks he is piloting the 1932 District champions. Few agree, but do not know why they disagrec for the reason that his Washington Terminal nine has a line-up almost entirely unfamillar to local sandlotters, Except by their manager, the players are unheralded and untouted, but Young is confident they will finish at or near the top of the sandlot heap this season. His additions include Lefty Shoap, Arthur Dorsey, Buzz Nutter, Tom Mills, Dutch Myers and Harvey Hamil. Shoap, | according to Young. is a former Albright College twirler and more recently of | the Brockport Club of the New York- | Pennsylvania League. Dorsey used to | play at Franklin and Marshall, Nutter in the Appalachian League. and Mills | for the Mount Alto Club of the New York-Penn Loop.
