The "Dayis Cup" Series.

American tennis players who are in

service tournament at the Queens Club
In London. The Americans, headed by
Major William A. Larned, former ma
tional champion, played their first
matches last Wednesday, against South
Africa. They will play their second
matches. against Canada on August 81.
Says the London Field of the series:
This war for freedom has called all

in a stronger fratern!zation. founded on
mutual sympathy and understanding,
which will be the outcome of the demo-
cratic ordeal. Englishmen who went
oversee on athletic expeditions before
the war can testify to the value of these
tours. not only to the mental outlook of
the tourists, which was a factor Of small
account. but to the national sentiment of
the peoples among whom they moved and
who were influenced unconsciously by
their advent.
