meeting may serve to give n good line
on how the fortunes Of battle will sway
at the national next month.
On July l6 the annual New York
state championships in singles and
doubles will start on the clay courts Of
the Yahnundasis Golf Club, Mt Utica,
y. Y. with Ichiya Kumagae defending
his title. The little Japanese is Just
now at the height Of his furious back
court game, as his recent defeats Of
Tilden and S. Howard Voshell prove,
which means that he is again the SEN
sational Kumagac Of 1916. when he
made such sweep of American courts.
Kumagae, however, is certain to face
very keen competition this time, and
should he win the state title again he
must indeed be ranked with our best.
II is to be hoped that the clubs con-
Quoting tournaments during the re-
mainder Of the season will exercise
some measure Of restraint regarding
the abuse Of the daylight saving
scheme The recent Journeys at the
Orange Lawn Tennis Club. and at the
University Heights Tennis Club, when
matches continued until five minutes
before in The evening in some cases,
served no good purpose 10 the players
and have made immcasurably more
difficult and less satisfactory the work
Of the hnpless tcnifs writers.
Caught between the Scylla and
Charybds Of moonlight playing and
carly editions, the court Boswells have
been unable &c give the necessary time
or space that these Journeys ordi-
narily command and nrc entitled to.
