in this country has been the use Of the
word "1ove" in the score as a synonym
for nothing.
1t has furnished the peg on which to
hang many a jest. The influx Of the
juniors, the actual opportunity to see
the great players in action and to know
that it is no baby game" has resulted
in bringing crowds to the courts, few

sioners of the various cities all over the
country state that the demand for play
ing space has grown to be serious

They are meeting 1t as best they can,
for the thousands who participate on
the courts of the parks and at the
great number Of public courts now be-
ing laid out in every available vacant
lot and where a charge of so much
per hour is made for the use Of the
court has become such vast army as
to cause the list Of club and tourna-
ment players to be Insignificant by
comparison.
Strange as 1t may seem, the west is
completely outstripping the east in
the rapid development of the game.
One of the prominent manufacturers
told the other, day of the tremendous

Not long ago a movement was start
ed by some of the tennis players to
petition the national association to
change the rule and allow fifteen min
utes' rest after the second set. 1t is
not definitely stated who was behind
this motion, but it can be fairly we'll
guessed. What action the executive
will take on the question can hardly be
foreseen now, but it is to be hoped that
they will be chary in making new rules
which will prove advantageous only to
the chosen few as against the many.
Lawn tennis is an athletic pastime,
and the athletic end Of it must not be
too much suppressed even among the

least Of them, and good condition is

CONNIE MACK PLANs, FOR THE
FUTURE.

| CONNIE MACK is several years
ahead of other major league man
ayers in that he realizes that the only
way to get a winning ball team is to
develop his own youngsters. Connie

ground. Every morning he has nearly
twenty-five young fellows at his ball
park, watches them in action and in
structs them how to correct their
faults. t.-,r.s.~
The squad OF youngsters Is made up
Of players from colleges and indie
pendent teams. and Mack has not the
slightest doubt that in due time he will
have developed lot of players of
