Importance as last year. The United States
Lawn Tennis Association has outlined a
schedule that will keep the experts on the go
until early fall On local courts as well.
players Of lesser prominence will struggle
for the posse ion Of club trophies and cham
ponships. What will make the season OF
especial interest will be the visit Of our Eng
fish cousins in search of added honors.

meet which is scheduled for the week be-
ginning Aug. 3. The courts Of the Longwood
Cricket Club of Boston will be the scene OF
these matches. The question Of who will
