SO STATES REPRESENTED

Proof OF the widespread interest In
tennis abroad is found in accounts OF the
American officers tournament at Cannes
which have Just reached this country.
Thirty-eight States were represented. so
that in a geographical sense the tourna-
nent In probably more representative
than any held in the United States. It
is significant TO note that the number of
players from the Atlantic and Pacific
coasts correspond 10 the prominence Of
these sections in the events at home.
New York and California led. with
fourteen entries each. while New York
stands at the head OF the cities. Amons
the competitors are found the names Of

certain that the 1ylnnars of tina tronbias

the interest in the matches Is found In
the fact that 5000 spectators were pro-
vlded.
With so many players available II
