tennis, from the field. COzzare, new
game, called also garden pool, puts
forth as it's chief claim to favor It's re-
semblance to croquet, at least as far as
the implements are concerned. coll,
however, which is an older game than
either tennis or croquet, but has never
been much played In the United States,
will undoubtedly make strong bid Tor
American recognition now that It's revi-
val in England is so marked ana entnu-
sIastic. 1t Is as athletic game as ten
mis-, and "golf" gowns will have to be
as loose ard free as the most arrant
dress reformer could desire, else the
drive of the ball, which is q sweeping
blow from arms height, could never be
accomplished. 1t is wonder that arch
cry, the prettiest and most graceful OF
field sports for women, does not retain
more favor. Is it because 1t Is so I'M
social? Archery fetes, of course, are
gatherings numerously attended, but as
q young woman discussing the subject
said: ITO be really good markswoman
you have to spend hours in solitary
practice, which is horribly pokey."
