PLAYERS FAVOR |
HARD COURTS
LONDON, May 13 Tennis, like )
everything .else, a tin- . ' progressive ',
days, has 'to conform to altered world •
conditions and, following the change i
from old to new Wimbledon ami the;
abolition of "world’s title” there
from, comes the new- that I he British!
(Davis Cup trial matches will prob-i
ably be held on hard courts. This j,
i3 in order that tho selected players jj
may be used to the courts on which
most of the IS competing countries | J
play, and also to the probability that’
the British team will have to go to)
Belgium where hard courts are use 1.
These forthcoming trials, so far as,
England is concerned, are likely to
bring out very little new talent, and
the old country will have to rely on .
such old guards as Kingscote, Craw
ley, Gilbert, Lycett, Lowe, Max Woos- <
nam and Uoper Barrett. The only! ;
new man mentioned with any proton- <
tions to Div'i.s Clip form is thr- young ,<
23-year-old South African, J. I). P
Wheatley, who Iras bean educated;
here and has qualifications to play ;
for Great Britain.
iWheatley showed remarkable form ]
recently whein_ he won the Covers I
Courts Championship at Queens i
dub, beating in the final game tho i
International Indiare-player, Doctor A
II. Fvzee. three sets to one.

When Dolores Dixon, a pretty New Ycik girl, entered suii for
?50,000, alleging Bubo Ruth, hom -run king of the New York
Yankees, was the father of her unborn child, Ruth, backed by Ills
kyal wife, denied the charge, asserting lie had never even seen
tlu girl anil that he was the victim of blackmail. When the suit
was about to come to trial Ruth’s attorney learned that a man
wh > had formerly lived in an apartment where the girl had a
loom could bare the blackmail plot. When the attorney got an
order from the Court to examine tlie man before the trial the girl
hastily withdrew her suit. Ruth has placed the matter in tho
hands of the District Attorney of New York, asking prosecution of
all involved.
