WILL BE A HANDICAP AFFAIR

Interest in the tennis tournament of
the Santa Monica Tennis club, sched-
uled to begin Thursday of this week
on the Casino courts, is increasing daily
and the drawings for the event have
occasioned a great deal of comment in
regard to the unexpected presence in
the lists of many of the star racquet
wielders of the Southern courts. Mrs.
Farquhar, Mrs. Widdowson and Mrs.
Bruce will raise the average of play
in the women's events, while the pres
ence of Young, Townsend, Ketchum,
Ball, Rogers and Marshall will liven
matters in the mems event.
Judging from the present state OF
affairs the annual tournament of 1910
is likely to eclipse any tournament
that has been or ever will be held.
Play will start promptly at 10 a. M
and again at p. m, allowing ample
time for lunch. Miss e. Marshall Will
act as hostess Thursday afternoon.
Play will be resumed on Friday, the
hostesses being Mrs. j. S. McConno-
chic and Mrs. c. I. Sutton.
Saturday will be the gala day. when
the finals in the three events will be
played off. In the afternoon tea will
be served by a committee from the
two clubs as is the custom on that
day in each week, and in the evening
the Tennis club will give a dance for
members and their friends.
Mrs. l.. r. Hare, Mrs. Sutherland
Hutton, Mrs. Roy Jones, Mrs. Ellen
l.. Kennedy, Mrs. John Valley and
Mrs. G.. L. Waring will act as patro-
nesSes.
The decorations, which are being un-
dertaken by Mrs. B. o. Bruce and
Mrs. Chas T. Sutton promise to outdo
in splendor anything hitherto at
tempted. Arrangements for the sup
per are in the hands of Miss Morphy.
The prizes, which will be presented
Saturday evening, are as follows:
Mems Doubles-Gentleman' and lady's
