Neither here or abroad IL there any
great promise Of new phenom ap-
pearing in lawn tennis, and for the
time being America and England and
all other countries must be contented
with what they have. Experts say
that this lean condition OF promising
youngsters Is due to the blight Of over
civilization. for the player OF today Is
more or less Tapped in tennis luxury.
In everything connected with the
game be enjoys 4 perfection Of detail
undreamed Of 4 generation ago. The
court is simply perfection. while the
balls and rackets are beyond i'm
provement and In most cases the
walls are encircled by green canvas

get a clearer sight Ut the balls.
But the tendency of all this luxury
and perfection IN hardly toward the
production Of hardy race Of players.
When game Is learned and strokes
mastered under great difficulty the re-
suit y virile product such as soft
conditions could not effect. Among
the players whose names figure in the
early chronicles of the game there was
a resourcetulness and quickness Of eye
which IL seldom seen nowadays, sim
ply because the conditions which pro-
duced aud nurtured them no longer
exist. Uneven courts. uncertain balls
and Irregular rackets make much
greater demand upon the eye and in
genuity Of the player than modern con-
ditions.
Five Of the leading tennis players
Of the Pacific coast are to participate
In the most important tournaments

Champion Maurice Mclaughlin, South
