MURRAY RANKS NEW TENNIS
 CHAMP P|ON
(By Associated Pressl

NEW YORK, Sept. 7--Robert Lind ley Murray, the new tennis champion. despite the fact that the United States 1 association isn't going to call him that, is a regular champion. even if he does part his name in the middle. l R. Norris Williams did that, and ev- l en Maurice E. Mclaughlin had diff iculty convincing new opponents he was tough guy with his service.
 Murray, California product, in up- holding the Pacific coasts good re- cord at the court game. showed an enthusiastic crowd at Forest Hills that he was about the nearest ap- proach to Mclaughlin the tennis fans had ever seen. While his service doesn't cary the accuracy Mclaughlin i was able to get into his forceful drives, he gets fully as much speed, and shot into the court almost aI- ways is good for an ace. At the net 1 game, where Mclaughlin himself was rated a star, it may be said that Mur- ray has no equal, He is the embodi. ment of grace at the net. McLaugh. lins range of play at this point made | it possible for him to serve. dash to the net and finish off his points from there.
 It was always believed that there never would be another tennis player who could meet him at that game. but 1t Is doubtful if the Comet would have shown peter at this particular style of play than did Murray in the recent tournament.
 Mclaughlin also was good at back court play, a point that Murray has neglected so long that it was diff cult for him to perfect the low, stick ing volleys just over the net and at the feet of an opponent. He finally mas tered it, however, and surprised hi8 audience when he met Nathaniel ". Niles at this game and beat him at it. Niles is a survivor of the old Eng.f h method of play, personified in a mum Der of internationalists who hare played on American courts. He d. pended wholly on an ability to accor- ately send his return shots over, re. lying on Murray or any other oppo- nent to finally smash a drive into the net or out of bounds. It was through this style of play that he was able to down Williams, but found a new style in Murray, who alternated an excellent back court game with a dashing return from the net, and passing point from the latter position when the opportunity presented it. self

AMERICAN bOYS ARE RESPECTED
 IN FRANCE
tBy Associated Press)

AMERICAN FIELD HEADQUAR- TIERS, Franco. Sept. 21-- Mothers and sweethearts at home might as we'll not ask the boys over there when they expect to get into the trenches. The boys themselves don't know when they will move up. Most likely they will not know more than a few days before they entrain for the front.
 When a big enough force has been equipped and trained and the American communications are work. | ing-when all the big preliminary tasks have been accomplished, the re- sidents of these pretty little French towns, nesting among the pictures que valleys. will say sorrowful good | bye to the soldiers from overseas and pray for their victory in the trenches. ! Until that day the boys have q pro gram of gruelling work-drills, digg- ing. gunning end bombing. Officers have now completed a survey for miles around this place, marking out | billets for troops which will move up | to the main training area. Any build ing that can shelter the men under sanitary conditions is liable to be ta. ken as accommodation for from five to thirty-live or even more men.
 Throughout the district the Ameri- can Commissions have found the ! French villagers and farmers unusu- ally willing to accomodate the troops. Aside from the high regard for Am ericans obtaining throughout France, this was due to the good name estab. lished by the first contingent from America
 The French farmer now knows that when an American soldier has chick en for dinner he buys the chicken, al. though scores of fowls may be scratch ing in the fields and in the village streets. He knows, to. that no Am erican soldier ever stole an apple. a canteloupe or a pear from farmer. because it is in the code of this army to pay for everything the men take.
 Another consideration that might caused reluctance to accept an army in billets is the fact that French far mers still remember the crimes of the B5che against women and girls With another army the farmer might have taken second thought before accepting into his home number of young men from foreign country.
 But the American record is unblem- ished. For in this territory where the name of the Roche recalls unmen- tionable horrors, there has not been a single instance in which an Ameri- can soldier ever forgot his respect for women. Even the harmless type of mashing common on American streets at night is absent from Amer ican areas.
 The code is simple in it's working, |, founded on the pride that each man has in the good name of the regiment Thousands of French people will tes- tify to its effect-honesty and honor in a great body of young American soldiers.
