Speaking of Sports With the opening of the city ten- nis tournament tomorrow, the first of jts kind to be conducted under the auspices of a municipal com- mission, interest in the game made famous by “Big Bill* Tilden and Helen Wills Moody, is on the in- crease in this city For several seasons, the New Brit- ain Tennis club conducted a tennis tournament in this city and devotees of the game played off their match- er. There was a desultory interest in the affair but the tournaments | were all a success. The municipal recreation commis- sion is taking up the matter where the tennis club left off and under the guidance of the officials and the | committee in charge, the tournament should go through to a successful conclusion and a champion in each of five classes should be created for the coming year. The tournament, under the plans of the recreation commission, will be an annual affair &nd something to which the votees of the net game may forward to. look Play in the men's and women's Eingles will open tomorrow.

'WO seasons ago, when the Yankees took four straight and won the Series from the Cardinals, the 1928 Vintage of Diamond Ginger Ale began its two years “on the bench” for the delightful flavor which cannot be imitated. Ginger extract, from genuine Jamaica Ginger, was put away to age for two years. Then, when time had finished its long process, we added pure fruit juice and crystal spring water by our own secret method. You can taste the result. That's why Diamond Ginger Ale is popular with those who think first of quality and flavor.
