) SPORTS THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, 'D. SPORTS. American Davis Cup Tennis Committee to Take Its Time in Selecting Team NORTH-SOUTH PLAY ONE OF MAIN TESTS White -Sulphur Tourney Also to Offer Tryout Before Mexico Is Met. I a canvass of the player situation and see how things stand generally. Inasmuch as most of the leading players—except Ellsworth Vines, who is resting at his home in Pasadena from & strenuous Winter of play in the Anti- podes—are at Pinehurst for the North and South tournament, it is not likely | that the committee will name an inters national team, or even part of one, right | now. In fact. the North and South tourney was designated as one of the tests for Davis cup horors. There will be a lot of good tennis from now on. After the week of play at Pinehurst the troup2 of racket wielders will repair to White Sulphur Springs for another week of play, after which the men named as internationalists will prepare_to invade Mexico, where on ay 5-6-7 they will meet Mexico in the first of the North American zone | matches. | BY LAWRENCE PERRY.

Last. year the Latins | were defeated rather easily in five| straight matches. While this affair is being decided, Canada and Cuba will meet in the other North American zone tie. If Canada wins, as well she may, and the United +~States ccmes through in Mexico. then our team and Cznada will face the net | at Montreal on a date in May not yet | determined. ‘Then will occur the final tie between the winner in the North American zone and Argentina, if the latter decides to | make the trip. It will not be necessary for Vines to compete in any of the preliminary | matches ncw_in progress or lying in| the future.’ His place as an interna- tionalist is assured and ali desired of him is that he recruit his energy and turn up about the middie of May ready to lead his fellows in interna- tional play. He returned from Aus- tralia pretty well baked physically and mentally about as sick of tennis as a boy can get. But the Tresiliency of youth is courted upon to bring him to the scratch in good time.

NAVY MENTOR MAKES DRASTIC CREW SHIFTS Stone and Hood Given Stroke and No. 7 Assignments on Eve of Princeton Race. 'NNAPOLIS, April 14.—Coach Charles Walsh made drastic changes in hfly Naval Academy varsity crew just two days before its opening race with Princeton tomorrow, putting new and less experienced oarsmen in the key po- sitions of stroke and No. 7. Archie Stone of last year's junior var- sity was moved from No. 2 to stroke, re- placing the veteran, John McMahon, while Jack Weeks, another veteran var- | sity oarsman, who has been rowing at No. 7, was changed off with Clark Hood. Stone and Hood have never rowed a race in the varsity and never rowed be- fore this week in their new positions. Speaking of the sudden change; Coach Walsh said that he had contemplated the move for some time, but, as he was not sure that Stone and Hood would be able to handle their scholastic require- ments, did not make the change until | assured that they had met the situation.
