Just our luck! Here we are without

to Meeker, supposedly from Denver,
early part of the summer Of 1919;
secured work at the Davitt house;
worked in the kitchen, tended bar
and did other chores. Miss Anna
Slifks, . comely young German girl
of quiet disposition and good name,
was waiting on table. Jack and Anna
became chums, then lovers (appar-
ently), were married as above stated.

PRINCETON CLUB TO
HOLD SCHOOL MEET
Expected to Take Precedence
Over New Jersey Inter-
scholastic Games.
FIFTEEN EVENTS ON CARE

Judging from the list OF entries
that are being received. it is ex-
pected that the interscholastic meet,
which will be held at Academy Field
on Saturday, May "a, under the
auspices of the Princeton Club. of
this city, will be the most successful
ever conducted by the Orange and
Black alumni organization.
About fifteen events will be on the
program. with the cream of the
prep and high school athletes as
contestants in every one.
The Princeton meet is greater in
way than the New Jersey Inter-
scholastic League field day, which
will take place on May 80. Only four
schools, namely, Barringer, Mont
clair and East Orange High and
Stevens Prep" compete in the latter
genes. while in the Tiger meet nearly
all of the larger high schools in
Northern New Jersey will probably
enter. Central High and Newark
Academy will be represented by
strong teams. as will the N. ]. I.
A. A. members, and probably Pingry.
Battin, Jersey City High. Orange and
number of other well-known insti-
tutions.
The athletic committee. composed
of ]. o. Bigelow, j. Nelson Carter
and Fl. H. Ward, is doing it's utmost
to make this years meet grand
success.

NEW YORK, May 1b.-Maurice e.
Mclaughlin. R. Norris Williams
Harold II. Haekett and Raymond d.
Little were yesterday selected to
represent America in the inter-
national tennis matches for the Davis
cup by the American committee. Rob
ert d. Wrenn, chairman; Henry w.
Slocum, of the Rockaway Hunting
Club, and George 7. Adee, of the
Country Club Of Westchester.

without a peer in this country, be-
ing the holder of the national cham
pionship, the New York State title,
the Longwood cup and other of the
singles classics, and In addition is
the national doubles champion. With
Thomas c. Bundy he stands No on
the national ranking list
Williams is the youthful Harvard
player who was the sensation of last
season. At that time he won the ma
tional clay court championship at
Pittsburgh, and he was runner up to
McLoughlin for the New York State
title. In his early competitions this
year Williams has not met with de-
feat. By many he as regarded as
stronger man than Mclaughlin.
Little was ranked at No. for last
season. his premier performance be-
ing the winning of the Metropolitan
championship on the turf courts of
the West Side Tennis Club. Hackett
was not ranked in singles, but his
name appeared three times in the
doubles list. Paired with w. M. Hall
he was second to Mclaughlin and
Bundy. and with Little the nominee
for the Davis cup team, he was
ranked at No s. Hackett's record as
a doubles player has never been dupli-
Gated on American courts. He has
held the national championship and
practically all of the important titles
at one time or another in his career.
The team will play in the pre-
liminary matches against Austria
lasia on June 6, Z and 9. Mr.. Wrenn
announced that it will be impossible
to announce yet which of the players
will compete in singles and doubles.
