Tennis Men Coming
from All Sections
to National Meet
Field Club Members Have Started q
Campaign to Have a Large
Entry List.

Special lockers are to be provided at
the Omaha Field club this summer for
the visiting players to the big national
clay court tennis tournament, owing to
the number OF Field club members who
take part in the sports Of the club, there
are never any spare lockers during the
summer and last year a number of the
members give up their lockers or shared
them with the visitors that all might be
accompanied.
The tennis men Of Omaha are writing
their acquaintances among the experts in
the different parts of the United states
about the national event here and there
will probably be an even better represen-
tation this year. Word was received from
John T. Bailey, official referee who lives
at Norman, Okl., that there would be a
real representation from that state this
year, and similar messages have been re-
ceived from players in practically every
state in the middle west
Harry Seymour, secretary of the Pitts
burg Field club, has written that at least
half dozen OF the clay court cracks OF
Pittsburg and the county league in which
Pittsburg is located, would be here. Among
them will be Percy Silver, one OF the best
known Of the eastern tennis men.

YALE'S OUTLOOK is DOUBTFUL
Johnny Mack Fears Championship
Beyond Reach.
ONE "Y" MAN IN THE sPRNTs


NEW HAVEN, Conn, March 25.-Coach
Johnny Mack the man who whips into
shape Yale's track and field athletes, from
now until the summer months will be busy
drilling his men for the Blues dual meets
and the intercollegiate championships,
which Yale lost to Pennsylvania last year
at Franklin field by a narrow margin.
Mack is pessimistic over Yale's chances
of claiming a championship team this year.
as the Blue has lost a number OF point
winners by graduation. OF the 25h points
the New Havenites tailed last year only
liz are now in college. These were scored
by Captain Fitzpatrick Of this years team
Yale point winners are below the number
Pennsylvania, Harvard and Princeton
claim at present In view Of this, Mack
believes he will have to work his men hard
to get results. Yale's chances against Har-
ward and Princeton in the dual meets look
brighter, however.
Training the Runners.
Since the men have taken 70 outdoor
work Mack has given more attention to
the distance runners and field event men,
especially to the hammer throwers and the
broad jumpers. The latters ranks were
! badly depleted when Baird, Cooney, Goebel
and Andrus were graduated. In the sprints
and hurdles the Blue will be we'll repre-
sented The men whose places are to be
| filled are: NJ. d. Kirjassoff, half mile; r.
| X Miles, mile; A, M. Haskall two miles
K. NJ. King, hurdles c. w. Baird broad
jump; c. 4. Cooney, w. A. Goebel and II
F. Andrus, hammer; L. S. Klrjassoff, 44C
! yards; f. H. Coy shot put and Captain
! +. I. Nelson, pole vault.
! While the prospects are not as brilliant
as in former years, Mack believes he will
be able to develop before the intercoue-
giates come around q number Of candidates
who will be able to replace the lost point
winners. Mack has large squad at wori
now and there is no telling what the mer
will do when the entire team gets into
swing.
Yale has only one "Y' man In the spirits
but the rest OF the candidates locy good
The most prominent are w. r. Wheeler
who won second last year in the 100 var,
dash against Princeton; e. u. Thatcher
who did consistent work as a Splinter Of
the freshmen team, and F. Boyd who VOL
the 22O-yard sprint in the Harvard meet
Reilly, another candidate, finished thir
, to Boyd in the same meet. In the Qua
meets these men look good, but I'm tn
/, intercollegiate they have such men as r
C. Foster OF Harvard, Cooke OF Princeton
an da host OF others good ones to ru
against.
