Dalton was completely outclassed. He had
no chance at all and suffered terrific punish

ASPHALT AND CEMENT
COURTS SURPRISE HIM
Clarence Hobart, Crack Eastern Ten-
mis- Player, Comments Unfavor.
ably Upon Their Use by
Western Experts

Los Angeles was honored yesterday
with a flying visit by Clarence Hobart,
who ranks as sixth best tennis player
in the United States. Accompanied by
his wife, he arrived from San Diego in
the afternoon and registered at the
Alexandria. He will leave this morning
for a two weeks visit at Catalina. Ho-
bart is just recovering from serious
attack of typhoid and his doctor has
forbidden him to play tennis for some
time to come. He said to representa-
tive of The Herald, when asked if he
would appear upon any California
courts this season.:
mo, my doctor has forbidden me to
play tennis, and as / have not had a
racquet in my hand for about three
months / feel rather inclined to obey
his instructions. 1 am very sorry that
have not been able to see some of your
local players in action, but l shall do
so as soon as ! return from Catalina.
l talked tonight over the long distance
phone with S. M. Sinsabaugh at Long
Beach and told aim that 1 would make
arrangements to see some Journeys be-
fore 1 went east.
'I wish particularly to see Miss SUIT
ton again in action. She easily de-
feated our eastern girls, but must con-
fess that was surprised at the show
1 have played many games in England
and know that on an average the Eng
lish girls are better players than the
girls of this country. There are many
more of them and they play the game
well, so you see that had grounds for
my surprise. She is a wonderful player
and - shall Sc her play before return
east.
zone thing that puzzles me about
your western players is the fact that
you all play on cement or asphalt
courts. Why is that, anyway? 1 see
so many beautiful lawns here in a
country where you have the opportuni-
ty of playing on lawns all the year
round. Then again, should think that
some of your players would play on
dirt courts, anyway, especially those
who intend to come east and play. In
the east we play all our championship
matches on dirt courts, and your west
ern player would find himself greatly
handicapped. He would have to learn
a new game, almost, by adapting him
self to a low bound ball, which also
would be slower.
"I cannot say anything as yet as to
the rank of the western player as COM
pared with our eastern players, as /
have not seen them in action. But upon
my return to Los Angeles from San
Francisco, the last Of the season, will
be better able to judge. I am greatly
disappointed that am not ,~ble 10 play
with some of them, as / could judge
better by being in action with them"

thusiastic about the coming reception.
Every foot of bunting that can be
crowded upon the city hall will be
hung out on the day the boys get

plans for the demonstration and sub
nit those plans to a general citizens
