to have much of a chance of scoring a

fined his wild shots to drives into the

In the other doubles the presence Of
Williams on the Harvard team made
almost anything possible. but there were
few who felt that with J. =. Ffaffman

it had Williams at his best. and that is

PLAN FOR DOUBLES
TILT WORKS BADLY
First Class Pairs Developed
Too Seldom Under Scheme
Now in Force.
MANY IDEAS SUGGESTED
~ EUGENE n. O'CONNELI..

Whether or not the trend OF events In
the lawn tennis world points to a time
in the near future when the national
doubles will be an all corners instead Of
sectional event is an open question.
There are some who point to the nddi-
ton Of three new sections at the laet
annual meeting as a sure sign hat
there IL a tendency to spread the dou-
bles. Others hold that the cutting up Of
the sections will weaken the teams and
that the number Of sections will be re-
duced again. That the increase in the
humber OF sections In a GOOD. thing for
tennis, however. Is believed by practi-
cally every n in close touch with the
game.
There il no doubt that the weakest
point in American tennis, notwithstand-
ing the great amount of adverse criti-
o!sm on the unorthodox play Of our top
notch men. is the doubles. All that one
has to do is glance back at the perform
ances of American doubles teams in in
tcinational matches to note what little
attention has been given to the doubles
same in this country. In the Davis Cup
matches the American doubles teams
have not measured up to the standards
of the British and Australian teams.
American team have been victorious
Only twice in challenge cum doubles
matches-in 1900. when Holcombe Ward
and Dwight +. Davis defeated j.. u.
Black and ~ Roper Barrett, and in
1913. when Maurice T.. Mclaughlin and
Harold H. Nsckett dowred Roper-Bar-
rett and g. i. Dixon. The Black and
Itoper-Rarrett combination was not
reariy England's best in 1900. when the
boherty brothers were EnSlish cham
rions. and the 1913 English team that
fell before Mclaughlin and Hackett was
held by many British critics to be an
unusually weak chamnionship Iail.

A. j. Wilson, of Spokane, a
leading candidate for the republi.
can nomination for congressman
two years ago, is an announced
candidate for the republican
nomination this year, and has is
sued his platform stating his posi-
ton. Mr.. Wilson is well known
in Stevens county, and is prob
ably the strongest man the stand
pat republicans have in this dis
trict. He believes in protective
tariff, a tariff commission ap-
pointed by the friends of protec-
ton, legislation by business men
instead of politicians, and full
preparedness. His 30 years of ac-
tive business experience are cited
as a part of his qualifications, and
inasmuch as a part of this 80 years
has been in connection with his
Stevens county interests, it is
probable that he will again receive
a heavy support from republicans
of this county.
