BROOKS AND BARTL EFT
 BIRMINGHAM FAVORITES
This Young Team Picked Top Birmingham Entries in Cot ton States Tcurney-Expect Hard Struggle With
 Title Hoders-Six More Enter
By ASA RouNTREE. JR.

assoeiat tion last summer they were easy winners and 1t is expected that they will repeat again this year, although as yet they have been in but one contest. this coming yesterday. Their enforced idleness was due to drawing a bye in the opening round two weeks ago and the special invitation tournament of the Birmingham Athletic club on tine Fourth of July, which prevented the playing of any league matches. From this tourna ment they were barred on account of Icing the city champions
 The team work of Brooks and Bartlett is almost perfect and both possess swift serves, a good overhead stroke and are fast on their feet. Although young in age the two have had ample experience tc make them veterans in play. It is be- leved by local tennis enthusiasts that these two will be the ones to repu1se the invaders from Atlanta. and should they work their way successfully through the preliminary rounds then Smith and Mans field will have terrific fight on their hands, for these two intend, if possible, to win the title this time and take over perm anent possession of the challenge cups.
 Carroll Blake, referee for the tourna- ment. announces that J. P. Ross. c. H. Miles Douglas Kirkpatrick, A. J. Daily, Samuel Rand, F. F. Reed. Hugh Starnes and Mir. Alvord will compose the nmpir- ing roster
 Play tomorrow will start at o'clock. but in the morning at o'clock the draw ings will take place and all the competi- tors are urged to be in attendance on time.
 For the purpose of arranging final schedule just previous to the drawings meeting will be held by the members Of the tournament committee this morning at the Country club.
 Word has been received by the chair man of the tournament committee from Pollard Randall of Nashville, Wilburn of the Decatur Athletic club of Decatur, Ga, and Bob Lowry of Knoxville, that they will arrive in the city this morn- ing. Others are expected tonight.
 Three more local entries were received by Chairman Bartlett during yesterday The late corners are Carroll Blake and Cary Baker, Hanna and Alvord, and Hammond and Adams of Fossil.

A Dumb Brute's Mistake

 Speaking of animals. in my opinion the elephant is the cleverest of them all,' said the old circus man. q re- member once, many years ago. when Jacko, who was then under my charge. showed me that he could read"
 "Oh, come now!" said the listener.
 'Tll prove it to you in about two| minutes" said the trainer "Well, as I was saying, the old fellow got into scrap with the Bengal tiger, and be- fore we could get them separated he had his trunk badly damaged. After the scrimmage was over Jacko broke loose and started down the street fast. He's going wildp somebody shouted. Don't you believe 1t says I. Now. where do you suppose that elephant went to?"
 Went to the surgeons, I suppose. Can't you get up better yarn?'
 No, he didn't go to the surgeons. He went straight to a little shop where a sign read: Trunks repaired while you wait Of course. he had made a mistake but what do you expect of g. poor, dump brute?"

UPSIDE Of the southern cnanl- IAyI pionship matches those of the aESy16 Cotton States Tennis associa- kH&$M ton probably are the most im- portanI that are staged annually in the south. The challenge trophies that go along with the title are handsome ones and are much sought after To come into permanent possession of these tro- phies a team must win the title three times. not necessarily in succession though.
 In the annual tournament which begins at the Country club tomorrow the two teams that will likely figure most prom inently in the struggle for the title are those of Lee Allen Brooks and w. V. Bartlett the cream of Birmingham's tennis talent, and Carlton smith and Mansfield of Atlanta.
 Smith and Mansfield are the present title holders, while the local duo reigned supreme in 1911 and 1912. Brooks and Bartlett need only to win the champion ship again to acquire the challenge tro- rhies permanently and needless to say they intend to strive their utmost to strip Smith and Mansfield of their title.
 Last year the Atlanta combination van quished the local talent on their own courts and with conditions favorable for them to do so. This year the tables are reversed and it Is Brooks and Bartlett who will be able to wage battle on better footing than their opponents.
 Although Birmingham shelters many players who are well versed in tennis playing Brooks and Bartlett are without a doubt the strongest team in the city at present. For the past four years these two have figured prominently in the southern tennis world and in this time have succeeded in corraling numerous honorsA Besides capturing the Cotton States championship in 1911 and 1els they also have the Alabama state champion ship and the local one to their credit.
 The state title was annexed in 1911 at Montgomery and so strong has been their play of late that no team in the state has attempted to take 1t away from them. In the city championship matches of the Birmingham Tennis
