United States National Lawn Tennis
association at the Waldorf-Astoria on
Friday. Feb. 8. Edwin F. Torrey, the
secretary, let the secret out when he
stated that no proxy would be good
for voting unless IL had attached 10
cent tax stamp properly cancelled.
Two-thirds of the voting Is usually
done by proxies at the annual meet

Because OF the important matters,
such as the awarding of the national
championship tournaments, the de.
cision as to the Davis cup matches,
adoption of Official colors and tennis
balls, every delegate will be subjected
to rigid examination. Torrey has
notified all clubs that delegates and
holders OF proxies must be on hand

day OF the meeting to be properly reg

velop many good man when he was
an International league manager.
Kelley has the spirit and the mag.
netism that are usually found In sue
cessful baseball men. He never avoid
ed tilt with umpires or his natural
opponents and his sense of humor has
never been exhausted.
Back In 1905, when the late Harry
Pulliam was president OF the National
league, Kelley. then manager OF the
Reds, got into trouble with various
umpires and expressed his opinion OF
them rather too freely. Pulliam
finally leaped on ''Kep and bore him
TO earth with stiff fine. at the same
time dealing out a lengthy statement
as a warning against loose speech.
Among other things. Pulliam declared
that Kelley must cease the employ
ment OF airy persinage In his encoun-
tiers with the umpires.
In reply to this Joe issued formal
statement denying that he ever had
employed AIRY Percy Flage, wouldn't
know the "g,iy" IL he met him I'm the

The clerk had to rap vigorously sew.

peal the remark elected.
Federal league officials claimed to
be just as well pleased at these little
bits OF by-play as the organized forces.
Former Judge Quincy Myers, Of the
Indiana supreme court. opened rebut

had not gone far when Judge Landis
asked him to define just how far the
Federal league wanted the requested
temporary injunction to 60.

they seek merely to stop alleged tam

Judge Myers explained that he was
not handling that end OF the case and
confessed he couldn't answer. Attor-
ney +. f. Gates was sent in TO pinch
hit for the ex-Indiana jurist. Gates
explained that the Federals merely
wanted, in the temporary Injunction,
to restrain organized baseball from In
terfering. through court action or any
way. with plans they might have for
spring training. He pointed out that
organized baseball might sue out
temporary injunctions In state courts,
preventing certain players from start

this phase under advisement and re-
quested Attorney Myers to proceed
with arguments.

Another Baseballist
Turns Out To Be Golf Bug

Jack Knights big hobby is golf.
The new. manager of the Spiders
would rather turn In corking
three than grab off $40 bet any
day in the week.
Jack took to golf under rather
peculiar circumstances at that. For
a long time$he wanted TO be a dem
list and he studied that profession
two years. The indoor work. how
ever. undermined his health and he
dropped from 1876 to las pounds.
So his physician recommended that
when not playing ball he should
stay in the open air just the same.
Golf was the NJ. DIS tip and Jack
adopted il. Now there's no more
frenzied golf bug In the country
than John Wesley knight.
