EASTERN TENNIS BY
A WESTERN CRITIC

DEL MONTE. Cal, September IA
trio of the younger set of eastern tennis
players, with form and reputation consd-
cred as fairly representative of the best
the east has TO offer, have been during
the past fortnight transported to the
beautiful surroundings OF the Pacific coast
resort. Their trip was directed and sane
toned by the United States Lawn Tennis
Association for the double purpose of bet
ter acquaintance with the players of the
Pacific slope and to assist the ranking
committee to properly rate the players of
prominence in the far west. The selected
men were Irving c. Wright and Nathaniel
w. Niles Of Boston and Wallace f. john
son Of Philadelphia. They are now in the
heat of a mighty struggle with nearly a
hundred California players, who have
flocked to the tournament at Del Monte
with the avowed purpose of showing the
eastern men a few things and of eliminat-
ing them from the tournament as rapidly
possible. To acknowledge the truth.
they are already showing what they can
do.
The best five men on the Pacific slope
are Mclaughlin. Long, James, Gardner
and Bell in the order named McLough-
lin. who defends the title this year, is
really wonder. killing the ball from any
part of the court with remarkable GER
tainty, and with larger experience would
rank very high ii he should go to the
east. Long showed his work by defeating
Niles, the champion of Harvard Uni
versity and the title holder at Niagara
The fasteners are necessarily at great
disadvantage here.
The courts are made of bitumen or as
phalt-rather dark in color and slightly
rough on the surface. The ball does not
bound as high as on dirt court, but
nearer to that Of a grass court. The

that it will capture the honors in the

people WHO are looking for Columbia to
win out In the series 1t is certainty that
a good many were surprised at the out
come of yesterdays battle.
Hester. the boy who is depended on to
carry off the bunting for Treasury, was
on the mound yesterday and pitched a
great game despite the fact that he was
unsteady at times Only three hits were
made off him. Columbia would proba bly,

would have been better for him. it is
thought. had he not have been able to To-

over too nicely.

Pacific players is altogether different. with

The climate is perfect for playing.
Scarcely ever rain, never very hot and

The entries were about 1oO-the largest

the lower half were Long. Bell and Niles.
BY hard luck Niles and Long met in the

matches.
word concerning the woman players
out here: They far outclass anything you
have in the east. They hit the ball hard.
and a number of them play net better
than most OF our men. The beautiful sur
roundings of the courts. with the flower
gardens and cactus beds in the distance,
have nothing approaching them in the
east unless it be the charming grounds
of the Meadow Club at Southampton.
The Pacific players all believe the east
has no show against them, because the
east does not hit the ball hard. but We
are hoping to show them that steadiness
and headwork are equally essential to
win.
