In selecting the third man those who ceme in range are Jackson, Craw- ford, Cravath, Burns, Lewis. Cravath and Burns have slumped from normal standards, and so are out of it for the year. Crawford is pot as fast as he was once. Lewis is playing grand ball, but Jackson, still batting around -840 and a fast man with a fine arm, has the shade. East vs, West. The Lawn Tennis association could make up the deficit in thrills caused Ly the postponement of Davis Cup matches—or at least make up a good- ly portion of this deficit by arranging for an intersectional clash between Wstern and Eastern stars after the amateur title is settled at Forest Hills. While the West obtained an easy decision in California, this would hardly cut in upon general interest in a return match set for Eastern terri- tory where an Atlantic seaboard team would have a better chance to make an even fight, through work — all fagged out— tired.
