BIG TENNIS SEASON.
Indications Point to Unusual Activ-
ity in Net Game.

NEW YORK, April 30.-Even the most
pessimistic of lawn tennis players-and
there are always few at this time of the
year-are willing to join with the opti-
mists in agreeing that the coming season
on the American courts promises to be
the most representative that this country
has ever experienced. The signs of ma
terial progress are written SO large that
he who runs may read. Fundamentally,
the remarkable increase in the champion
ship and tournament schedule list affords
the best indication as to the growth of
the sport Then there is the promise Of a
visit from famous foreign players, an ex-
cellent prospect as to the Davis Interna-
tional cup team. drawing from the top
class men. and the stimulation Of another
skirmish by the brilliant California WELD
ers Of the racquet upon eastern courts
Indeed, the program that the officials of
the United States National Association
have mapped out is a most inspiring one.
Carried to completion with a zeal that
may be expected, the standard of the
American game is surely destined to
reach a lofty place, which will broaden
the scope of lawn tennis In Q manner
hitherto unknown in this country.

SUNDAY SCHOOL LEAGUE.
Fourth Season Opens Tomorrow I'm
der Most Favorable Conditions.

The fourth annual season OF the Sunday
School Base Ball League of the District of
Columbia is scheduled to be inaugurated
tomorrow afternoon at $50 o'clock on
the leagues grounds at 18th and D streets
northeast.
The officials predict that this season
will be a fourishing one. They expect
to furnish the fans of Northeast Wash
ington with some of the sw1ftest base ball
arguments witnessed in that vicinity
for many moons. Too much cannot be
said of the league at the present writ
ing because of its unknown strength, as
there are two new teams in the organiza-
ton this season, but here's hoping.
The diamond is in perfect condition and
everything awaits the call of the Jump
tomorrow afternoon. 1t took several
weeks to get the grounds into play
ing condition. but they are reported now
as being one Of the fastest in the city.
MIR. herman A. Meyers, the newly
elected president of the league and a
native of Georgetown. D. c.. felt very
basebally yesterday and said nice things
in regard to his league. AS a leagues
president this is Mr.. Meyers first trip
come of his rulings.
The stands have been repaired and
every accommodation for the benefit of
the public is the officials motto.
Teams from the Ninth Street Christian
Church and Hamline Methodist are billed
for the opening game tomorrow after
noon and good game is sure to result.
The battery for the Methodist troupe
will probably be Gordon and Erwin, while
Manager Love will have Carroll or Kerr
on the firing line, with Broome at the
receiving end.
The veteran Jimmy Hughes will call
decisions again this season. Jimmy is
considered by many as one of the best
in the business around local sand lots. and
while he is working it is known that the
| contests will be run right up to the min
ute.

tennis team came out winners another
time here this afternoon when in a series
of one flight of doubles and two of
singles .he Middies bested Bucknell by
winning the double and one Of the single

place in the doubles when the two Navy
men, Underwood and Parmelee. fought
with the visitors, P. Harriss and c. Har-
riss, to a final score of - to II before the
match was settled.
Another hot scrap occurred over the
single contest which p. Harriss won
from Sampson of the Navy by the score
of As and 10. The final set was the
most bitterly contested and the visiting
racquet handlers had to work like Turk
to get the decision.

HAS SUPERB FORM.
Georgetown Varsity Beginning to
Show Results of Coaching.

During the week just past so much i'm
provement has been noted in the mode
Of rowing Of the Blue and Gray varsity
| eight that supporters of the school are
now more sanguine than ever that the
season is to be productive of success.
The men were boated last Sunday in their
new racing shell. and Wednesday thew
received their new oars. SO that, with
the lineup definitely settled, everything
is in readiness for the crack of the gun
which will start the first race Of the sea-
son against the Navy a week from next
Saturday.
With this event in view Coach Demp-
sey has already begun to work his
charges up to tip-top condition. Last
week he inaugurated four-mile rowing
for the first time and also began giving
the youngsters racing starts and short
spurts. The regularity of this work was
somewhat interfered with by the illness
Of Cunniff. the stroke, but during the
latter part of the week this man was in
much better condition and seemed able
to handle himself as we'll as he did pre-
V1ous TO the time he was taken from the
boat by his doctors orders
The first crew is now able to take four
lengths to mile on the second crew
and at least six lengths in the same dis
lance on the props. This has been ac-
compllshed on more than one occasion
anu OitCh tic Icdt was performed With
out any great increase in the stroke.
Cunnif usually keeps up pace of
thirty-four to a minute, but it is doubt
full if he has set his stroke as high as
that for any length of time during the
week just ended.
1t is likely that in the time trials which
will be started this week a pace of
thirty-six will be required by the COACH
| as it is well known that he favors quick
rowing in short races. The men will be
hard pushed to stand this SO early in
the year. and there is no doubt that for
the first few Gays many of them will be
winded. Two weeks of such labor
| though, will be sufficient to put them on
| their mettle, and with an even break Of
luck they stand an excellent chance of
trimming the Navy.
The second crew received a boost last
week of no small magnitude when ex-
Capt Stuart of the foot ball team report

should be able to make place in the

brother was manager. and has also
taken part in class races since then.

though Yale might have to wait another
year or two to win back her rowing
prestige on the Thames.
On the subject Of amateur rowing an
interesting bit of news has come from
England. 1t is to the effect that England
has entered into an agreement as a re-
suit Of which Russian crews may shortly
be seen In the English Henley regatta.
Russia has agreed to enforce the Eng
lish definition Of an amateur and this
makes the subjects of the car eligible
to row. SO far as Is known this will be
the first serious effort on the part Of
Russia to engage in any form of competi-
tive athletics.

Tigers Base Ball Prospects.

Princeton's base ball enthusiasts are fig
uring on the present team to win the in
tercollegiate diamond championship this
year. In spite Of its recent defeat by
Williams the Orange and Black has
shown considerable all-around strength
and If the pitchers do their part when
the championship games arrive the Tigers
think they will more than hold their own
The Tigers always go on the theory
that a good battery, a reliable catcher
and two good twirlers form the nucleus
Of winning team, and that If they pos
sess these in advance any average coach
can teach the men to field and bat In
winning style. This year Princeton has
two good pitchers in Cunningham and
Noodle and the rest Of the nine appears
to be up to the usual Princeton standard.
In another week the Tigers will start
their championship season and their the
cries will have vigorous test
