BY BOB CAVAGNARO. EW YORK, February 6 (#).— N which produced more oratory than votes in the fifty-sixtn annual meeting, the United States Lawn Tennis Association today shifted ships from clay to grass courts, with the Merion Cricket Club, Philadelphia, as the site for the 1937 event, June 21 to 26. last two years on the clay courts of Northwestern University, Chicago, thus will return to the same setting it had from 1900 through 1934. hard surface broke out in the midst of an otherwise perfunctory meeting when former President Julian S. My- rick of New York proposed rescinding in making it mandatory to play the college tournament on hard courts. Claimed Handicap to Colleges. THE attack on Myrick's motion was Kansas City, Mo., a retiring vice pres- ident. He was joined by Secretary Ralph W. Westcott and James Stew= art, both of Chicago, as well as J. B. Chicago delegates had been instructed in advance to oppose any change. “There’s hardly a college or uni- versity in the country with sufficient Ivy. “They must do their practicing on hard courts and it seems absurd for them to have to play the cham- pionship on grass. but the tournament should be played on hard courts in a college. If we don't play it on a hard surface the colleges may take the tournament withdraw from the membership. We | ought to try to keep the few colleges | we have in our membership and stim- ulate interest among others.” WmTCOTl‘ and Adoue indorsed | Ivy's arguments and so did Stewart, who went a step farther. “Crucify our sections if you will,” national association is to develop the game nationally.” Myrick supported his motion, which was carried later by an oral vote with that the new president, Holcombe Ward, had canvassed 60 colleges on the question, 30 of whom replied.

That was con- sidered a left-handed vote in favor of turf courts. “If the colleges want to run the | championship that's their privilege,” said Myrick. “We'll be only too glad to help them in any way we can.” Slight Ranking Changes. NATIONAL rankings, with Donald Budge and Alice Marble head- ing the men’'s and women's divisions, respectively, were approved without a murmur although thers had been considerable pre-meeting speculation | on the possibility of a dispute over | ranking Frank Parker No, 2 and Bryan (Bitsy) Grant No. 3. However, two minor changes, rec- ommended by the Ranking Commit- tee, were approved. Melvin Lapman of New York was placed seventn in the junior list, taking the place of William Talbert of Cincinnati, who was dropped & notch. Ernest Sutter of Tulane, intercollegiate title holder, was ranked twenty-first among the men, moving Bob Underwood of Los Angeles down to twenty-second. The remaining players in both divisions dropped down accordingly. Elected with Ward, 1904 national singles champion and a member of the first United States Davis Cup team, ‘were Joseph W. Wear of Philadelphia, first vice president; Lawrence A. Baker, ‘Washington, D. C., second vice presi- dent; Westcott, secretary, and Russell B. Kingman, Orange, N. J,, treasurer.

Collom of Philadelphia. Before moving up to the second vice presidency, Baker, as treasurer during the last year, announced that the U. S. L. T.

Linkswoman Bows. CORAL GABLES, Fla, February 6.—Mrs. Charles Stern of Washing- ton, D. C., was defeated in the third division final round in the annual Miami-Biltmore wonien’s golf cham- pionship here today. She lost to Mrs. C. Murray Stoddart of Coral Gables by 3 up and 3 to play, " The upset of the meet was the vic- | HOYA FIVE SEEKS HILLMEN'S SCALPS Win Over West Virginians Will Mean Even Break game geared to top-notch efficiency., He hasn't done ing much but | shoot a brace of course at Eastlake, a par and he's been playing such super- fine golf that if he comes on his mallet at Augusta it's going to be another case of Jones against the field, as it was in the days from 1923 through 1930, Heavy Burden for Bob. T'S BEEN so during the four pree vious masters’ tournaments, but Bob, to speak plainly, has been a colossal flop. He's finished far down the list in all the tournaments so far, but there have been reasons for that, The Augusta national tournament, in a sense, has been Bob's own affair. They named it the “Master’s” tour= ney, after him, and he's been the host, in a manner of speaking. He's been obligated to sit up with the boys, and more or less to pal around with them. Not that Bob drinks a lot of hooch. He doesn't and never has, but late hours don't help playing the game of golf, Walter Hagen to the contrary. And in another sense, and a more cogent one, Bob has been a marked man in the series of $5,000 golf afe fairs that have packed much of the drama of the Winter circuit, ranging from Gene Sarazen's $1,000 double eagle of two years ago through Hore ton Smith’s last-nine rush over the water-soaked course last year to win. The first thing the gallery asks when they move up the magnolia-lined driveway at the Augusta national is: “What is Bob doing?” They All Ask About Jones, }j IT ISN'T: “What is Sarazen doing, or Horton Smith or Harry Cooper doing?™ but most of the conversae tion centers around Bob Jones. It's his only tournament start of the year, in the first place, and he's the marked man in the field. But the pros no longer look over their shoulders with a shudder when Bob's name is mentioned. They used to do it in the old days when he was campaigning over the world winning in League Play. FTER a slow start, which found them losing their first three games, Georgetown's basketers | get the chance to pull up to | tercollegiate Conference tomorrow | night at Tech High School where it meets West Virginia, current tail- ender of the conference. The tap- off is at 8:30 o'clock. :at Morgantown early in January. West Virginia took that one by a 41-32 score, Tomorrow night's visitors are | coached by one of the most famous | athletes in West Virginia's history— | “Little Sleepy” Glenn. Glenn places | most of his hopes upon Jack Gocke, | leading scorer of the conference last year, and Jack Phares, a guard. In- cidentally, Gocke set a new scoring [record during the 1935-6 season which he finished with a total of 118 points in 10 games, or an average of 11.8 points per game. His mark of 23 points in a single game gives him a share of the all-time loop record in that respect with Meyer Bloom, Temple's ace. Heartened by recent home victories over Pittsburgh and Temple, George- town nevertheless faces the necessity of winning all its remaining con- ference games if it would be found in the running when the last whistle | is blown. Tomorrow night's game will be the last local appearance until February 19 of the Hoyas, who go on the road to play Army, Yale and Syracuse during the coming week.
