Davis Cup and Championship of All

Coupled with the announcement
that several of Americas most-notcd
tennis players will invade England
this summer and compete In the ALI
England championship tournament to
be held at Wimbledon, in June. comes
the statement that William A. Larn-
ed, national champion OF the United

sires to retire from the game in a
blaze OF glory, and after the English
series carry the Stars and Stripes in

Should Larned vanquish his rivals in

other arrangements will be made
whereby all the preliminary matches
will be decided in England, the vic

final match for the trophy and cham

Larned could not bring his tennis
career TO more fitting or glorious
close than by being instrumental IN
