Michigan's Chances to Score Seem

Ann Arbor May 14.-Despite the

track team has made "A comparatively
poor showing in the dual meets that

universities this spring, Trainer Far

WOMEN'S TENNIS
DUE FOR BOOM
Listing of Players Adds Impetus
to Interest in Game

New York, May li.-Preparations

the land point to the fact that lawn
tennis for women is to experience con-
activity, this season. The
women's side of the game has not fol-
lowed the sure and steady growth
which has advanced the mems play
and tournaments during the last de-
cade. In this country the women's
tournaments and the enthusiasm OF
the women players has been as iitful
and mercurial as the springtime sea-
son. There was a tremendous impetus
when Mrs. May Sutton Bundy at the
time Miss May sutton went abroad
and captured the English national
championship after having won all the
honors possible in this country. No
other American. man or woman, has
ever been able to accomplish the same
thing. May Sutton's name and her
battering ram strokes were famous
and set to music in the halls and for
a season or two there was IA tremcnd-
Gus boom i'm womens lawn tennis,
which died away and until this season
displayed no signs, of being revived.
The ranking of the women players
last season, for the first time, appears
to have served as the inspiration for
the greater number of tournaments de-
voted to women which appeared on the
national list when 1t was issued recent
ly. The greatly increased number Of
women's tournaments was one of the
features of the list of meetings, and il
has caused more than one tournament
committee at this time to make ar
rangements for women's play where !;
had only been the intention To decide
the mems events. The eastern women
are beginning To understand, just as
their brothers are awakening To the
truth. that II is AN abundance of hard
and fast tournament competition which
has developed the Californians To the
pinnacle of success, and which gives
them the top places in every dcpar,-
mcnt of the game. out of the first ten
ON the womcn's list, Miss Mary Brown

Many of the women are skeptical as
to whether or not the carly date III

pha as might he brought together

Cambridge and possibly in the shotput.
He is the only man now IN college who
has won points in these events at the
eastern classic
At the Penn relays he was beaten by
both Loughridge, of Yale. and Nc
Cutcheon, of Cornell. but at that time
he was seriously handicapped by wet
field. Kohler, in practice throws, has
beaten the marks made by both these
athletes.
Bond is regarded as Michigan's best
bet for the 100-yard dash. Neither
Drew, of southern California, nor
Jones. Of Georgetown, who beat the
Michigan sprlnter i'm the 100 at the
Penn meet will participate in the

cs there are considered good.
