to go to his opponent to clasp his
hand. This should have been the
duty of Brookes. However, Brookes
didn't make any effort to get to Nc
Loughlin, but instead walked off the
court even with Mclaughlin in pur-
suit of him. He took Mclaughlin
extended hand, but he didn't lose any
time in getting to the clubhouse. II
was a very cool greeting on the part
of the Australian and it was noticed
and commented upon at the time.

Another thing, Brookes plainly
showed his disgust at our enthu-
siasm during his match with Will
liams. Time and again his acting
was more apparent than words. And
when Williams finally won set and
the spectators gave vent to their
feelings, Brookes put his fingers in
his ears to drown the sound. There
were few Kisses at this show of
snobbishness, but the vast majority
of persons present just overlooked
Brookes entirely. Brookes is now
very sore on us and he is hitting at
us with cutting remarks. His ac-
tons, on the whole are in contrast
to those of his partner Anthony
Wilding, who minded his own bust
ness and played a fine game of ten
mis-. Wilding didn't show us any
favors, but he didn't object to mode
of entertainment.

The Yankee boys did themselves
proud in their show of craftsmanship
williams, when beaten by Wilding
jumped over the net, ran to where
Wilding was standing and clasped his
hand so enthusiastically that one
would think he was delighted to be
the loser. Later on, when Brookes
lost to Mclaughlin, there was no de-
sire on the visitors part to extend
greetings. Brookes has talked about
the criticism that is being leveled a.
him, and he seems to feel as if he i:
being abused.

Cincinnati is out for the Olympic
championships, but it isn't likely tina
she will get them. She has reputa
ton for knocking everything In sports
and her baseball team is a regula
martyr. If Berlin is not in position tc
hold the big games in 1916, New Yori
should hold them. All the advan
tages are to be had there and NOR
persons would attend the Olympic
than in any other city in the world.

J. P. N:
A few months ago L suggested il
your column a race to be called tn
i'Rival Stakes" A number of fan
have told me that this would produc
some great racing. Now | would Xix
to see this race put on for next Sun
day. Things could be fixed so as t
make this the only star professions
race at the Velodrome. Here is hoy
the race could be run: Teams, Kra
mer. Goullet, Grenda and Fogler an
Rutt, Clark, Moretti and Cavanagf
First heat, Kramer against Rutt; sec
ond heat, Goullet VS.. Clark; thir

Cavanagh VS.. Fogler. All heats to b
at tWo-thirds of mile. Winner {
each one point. Second race, tear

Goullet and Grenda. Winner of eac
heat two points. Last race, pursu
race. Both teams start from opposit
sides of the track. When all men al
put out on one team, race Is Owe
Winner of pursuit race six points
This race would be great, and as tn
would be the only race of the day fC
the stars, do not think it would /
too much work for them. What da

the twenty five-mile race? Hoping
