But it's easy, once | you hear it from Miss Bjur | stedt hervelf. The majority of the Swedish, Scandinavian and Norwegian names contain “J's” which are silent. In the case of Miss Bjurstedt the “D” also is silent. She says her name should be pronounced jOORSTET.” = BY HAROLD JOHNSON Puff! Puff! “Gee, but that was a peach!” A truly remarkable sidearm feturn at the net which sent the dyamic Willis Davis, newest of California's tennis whirlwinds, skidding headlong on his ear, elicited this remark, which was supercharged with al! the gir! ish enthusiasm of Molla Bjur- etedt. A halfconsumed cigaret deftly gripped between the pearly teeth of the lady champion of the sun, moon and stars nearly spilled tn sym pathy with the native son as Molla turned to George M.

Seated among the scribes, of- ficlals, players and hangers-on, she nochalantly produced a cig- aret, lighted it and settled to her neediework until the courts were cleared for action. Smoking, she followed every Wore critically, applauding the bri! Mant cross-fire of Davis and the dogged persistence of the fra Pittsburger who fought into the last trench. “Does smoking affect your Dreathing on the court an tn trepid scribe queried during the tournament, oblivious of the fact that he might be spanked severely with a racquet wielded by the Nor flan flash. “Why do you ask?” she re- torted. “It does no harm. it's my affair if | choose to smoke.

This T ery likely may prove a good thing for the game, since the player® found participatic much lem expensive at New York than at Newport, but practices that help the national tournament might kill any other tennis fixture were an attempt made to make money om it.

Can you imagine any golfer holding his breath three minutes? Qe ee tt When Hughey Jennings, the te: r of the Detroit Tiger baseball clan, was in Washington recently with his team, he took the opportunity to shoulder his golf sticks and play over the links of the Columbia Country club. It was reported by those who witnessed the exhibi- tion that Jennings displayed more enthusiasm than ability, and compiled an enormous total of strokes, with a surprisingly emall ~~ number of clubs. | % M8 In place of the formidable array of wooden and Iron clubs that the ordl- nary golfer carries, the baseball leader has equipped himself with — just three sticks—a midirén, a niblick and a putter. He never uses a wooden club, and the reason he gives is that he hates to drive eo far ahead of the other fellow that the fun is taken out of the game, and the reason why be dispenses with the cleek, the jigger, the mashte and all the other styles of iron clubs is because he can make the midiron perform all the feats for which the ordinary play- er uses an assortment of clubs. % 8 8 8 method of using his clubs is as follows: He drives off the tee with his midiron, replaces it carefully in his bag, and winds his devious | way toward the green by land and water, over hill and dale, gener- ally in the rough and always in a trap, digging vigorously with his niblick until the ball has been pitched at last upon the green, where © he can use his potter and hole out in a half dozen strokes or more. When he had completed his round of the Washington links, the De troit leader gave some gooc advice on how to play golf to those who followed him.
