1T is indeed a source Of wonder why
the British tennis authorities did not
come forward with their revisions be-
fore they lost the cup. To step in at
this time. and ask for changes of ser
vice, footfault revision of rules, and
stipuIations as to the personnel OF teams
is exceedingly bad form. 1t would have
been better to have come forward before
having seen McLoughlin's methods of

was displayed to the Englishmen long

One solution.

One solution of the Cincinnati diff
cultics according to all of those who
profess TO know is that Hermann buy
out the Fleishman interests In the club
and proceed as he is capable of doing
to everyone's satisfaction. The latest
report has it that Hermann may buy
out the Fleshman holdings and for the
good of the game in Redland il would
be one of the best things that could
happen.
Up to Joe Tinker.
Joe Tinker may have an inning now
that his case has been settled by the
clubs involved According to the last
and latest Joe failed to come 20 terms
with Wilbert Robinson Sunday. Joe eVi-
IDENTIFY believes il best to fix matters, so
that he will not have the same trying
situation on his hands as this last bit
of dealing with the Cincinnati club. II
ia understood that Tinker wants to get
the same money that he did as man
ager of the Reds.

the IIilltOpper does not appear in a game
