The international Tennis Federation.
that hitherto more or less visionary
governing body that was much talked
of in 1913 and 1914, only to fade away
before the clouds of the gathering
worldwar, will soon assume definite
shape and play leading part in the
administration of the game, according
to a letter received last week from
Captain Richard Norris Williams, Cd,
who is still with the A. +. F. in France.
Williams's letter was written to
George Townsend Adee, president of
the United States National Lawn Ten
mis- Association The former champion
is a member of the executive commit
tee of the L. S. n. l.. T. A, together
with Captain Watson NJ. Washburn,
who is also in Paris at the present
time. These two American players
have recently held several conferences
with British and French members of
the International Federation in Paris.
and Il second invitation was extended
to America to become member of
the world organization.
According to Williams, the two sub
jccts most discussed at these preimi-
nary conferences were the future rcla-
tons Of players from the Central Pow
crs AS regards competition with British,
French, Belgian, Italian and other play
ers from the allied countries, and the
formation and administration of the
federation. The latter organization has
not met rs an official body yet, but
plans to do so in about two months
time.
In spite of this, England. France.
Belgium and Italy have already reached
an agreement upon the passing of the
three following rules:
A. No German can play in our coun-
try.
b. None of our players can play in
Germany.
c. None of our players can play in
neutral country that does not prohibit
the German players from entering its
tournaments.
"In A, B and c I mean by German
Germany, Austria. Turkey and Bulgaria
the Central Powers, in other words"
writes Williams. at is therefore. alb
solutcly sure that the federation will
pass the above rules. There are, natu-
rally. all sorts of complications that will
arise if one country or another does not
pass all three rules, or passes only
part, but by far the best way would
be for us to pass all three and have it
over with. Both Washburn and urge
you strongly to do so.

Midshipmen Sweep Severn

later in the race when it did not seem
to be increasing its lead at an &C
celebrated rate.
In the meantime Harvard had
shaken off Princeton and the two were
pushing along, rowing not over thirty
two to the minute, but doing all the
rowing they could and utterly hope
less of cutting down the lead Of the
powerful Navy crew. At no time in
the race was any special effort on the
part of the visiting crews IN evidence.
Apparently they had given all they
had in their effort to hold the Mid
shipmcn at the opening stages Of the
race, and could do nothing but strug
gle to make the margin as small as
possible as tlc end approached.
The Freshmen event was the pre-
liminary. Booked TO start at A o'clock,
with the main attraction twenty min
utcs later, both were considerably de-
laycd. The youngsters got off we'll to-
gcthcr. and AZ the 200-yard point the
Navy was forging to the front. while II
little later the Harvard boat had a dis
tinct advantage over Princeton. At
the half way the midshipmcn were
three lengths to the good and Harvard
nearly two lengths ahead of Prince

Harvard Oarsmen Finish
Second in Both Varsity
and Freshman Races

ANNAPOLIS, Md, April l9.-Thc
Naval Academy crews turned this af-
ternoon's races against Harvard and
the big event by more than twelve
no less than seven. Harvard was sec
ond in both, leading Princetons var
sity by two lengths and half and it's
freshmen by about n length. The eff
fort Of the Princeton youngsters to
cut down Iarvard's lead was the sport
ing feature Of the day. Neither Navy
crew was seriously threatened after
the first 200 yards.
The Naval Academy first crew fin
ished the course Of N mile and seven
cighths in 20 minutes and 81 seconds.
Harvard's varsity did it in 1881 and
Princeton in ll:a1. The Naval Acad-
envy Plebes finished in 1i:24, which
was better than that of either Of the
visiting 'varsities. The Harvard fresh
men rowed over it in li:49, about four
seconds faster than the Tiger cubs.
The race was Of the kind that can
be described very simply, Coach
Clcndon had picked eight powerful
youngsters who could maintain a
greater pace than that Of their op-
ponenta. and had taught them to row.
There Is not the slightest doubt of
that after to-day'e race. They we're

America were asked to enter the feder-

answering we must study the rules of

In the above paragraph Williams re
ferred to the fact that in 1914, just
before the outbreak of the war, votes
had been assigned to the principal ma
tons and championships awarded The
championship of the world, on grass
courts, was given to England in per-
petulty. IN recognition Of that country's
service 10 the game. The hard court
championships were given to France for
four years.
Continuing, Williams wrote: Let me
take up the points as they came.
First, voting. The voting power is ar
hstrary. We are willing TO admit that
England has done much in the last
thirty years. etc. but that does not
entitlc her TO an extra vote. We said
that we should advise that the number
of votes should be revised and based
on some fact. In other words. that the
number of clubs or courts or players
in country should determine the
number of votes that that country has:
that we thought it wiser to appoint
committee to study this so that a
country Will have Il number of votes in
some way proportional to the interest
taken in tennis in that country
Williams further explained that he.
and Washburn pointed out how illogi-
cal it would be to name player cham
pion of the world if he happened to
win at Wimbledon or Paris without
facing all the best men in each coun-
try. and the federation officials agreed
with this view. Objection was also
taken to giving England the cham
plonship of the world on turf courts
in perpetuity.
The conclusion was reached that all
the countries might get together and
hold the Davis Cup championships of
the world on grass. earth and indoor
courts all played in the same country
1or one, two or three years.
Regarding the rule that the exccu-
1--WE committee be only two days by
mail from Paris. Williams and Wash
purn pointed out how unjust thjs
would be to countries like America and
Australia, Tor instance. and the others
agreed, saying that mileage system
would be better. with cable commupi-
cation used or more time allowed.

The Rochester boys looked at a lot

They swung at Russells spitball to the
extent of nine strikeouts in the first
five innings and they continued to
swing the same way when Shawkey
