JAPANESE PLAYERS
BEATEN AT TENNIS
Kumagae Eliminated by Rich
ards and Kashio Loses to
Tilden I'd in Phila.
Special Despatch 20 TEE sus.

PHrLApELPHIA, Pa, Feb. 20.-1n de-
feating Ishiya Kumagae OF japan TINS
afternoon, at Is, 6-3, 6--4. in the
fourth round Of the Middle States COW
cred court lawn tennis tournament, on
the roof of the Wanamaker building.
Vincent Richards. the sixteen-year-old
New York schoolboy. accomplished one
OF the most notable feats In the annals
OF the game in this country. Never be-
fore has a youth Of Richardss age
gained the distinction Of winning from
a member Of the FIRST ten in a tourna-
ment match. His victory to-day came
only after kumagao had outplayed the
boy from deep court and seemed to be
headed for straight set triumph.
But adding to the merit Of his
achievement Richards then proceeded to
change his methods. Having discov-
cred the futility of trying to cope against
the powerful deep court driving attack
of his rival the boy champion threw eau
ton to the winds and fought his way
to the net position in spite of all Kuma-
gae could do to keep him near the base
line. The match then became a duel
between kumagae's tremendously force
ful and accurate ground strokes and
Richards's really brilliant volleying
game, and the latter won only because
Richards had the courage to persist In
'ho iaco VI savage STORM OF passing
shots. and the skill to turn these shots
aside and score placement aces.
Tho schoolboy is now in the semi final
round, where he Is bracketed in the up
per half with Wallace r. johnson, who
yesterday defeated s. Howard voshell
They Will meet tomorrow afternoon for
the place tn the final round, which will
not be played until next Monday.
Alexander in semi-nnaIs.
Frederick B. Alexander, Davis cup vet
eran. was the only other player to reach
| the semi finals to-day. This he accom-
plished by defeating Craig Biddle, the
internationalist. by score of Ga, e-1.
In the two other matches In the singles
William T. Tilden I'd, national clay court
! champion. eliminated Seiichiro Kashio of
japan at 6-3, 60. and Harold l. Tay-
Tor. national indoor junior title holder
defeated Paul Gibbons at SIS, 6-3
e-4. Ttlden and Taylor will meet at 2
| O'Clock Tomorrow afternoon, and the
| winner will play Alexander at IL 80
clock on Monday morning, with the
| final scheduled for the afternoon o, that
day.
No matter what the result Of his match
with johnson tomorrow, Richards made
certain of his place In American lawn
tennis by his victory this afternoon.

that astonished the crowd. After her
victory she was heralded as the queen
Of the show and until tho doors closed
late at night she was surrounded by
big crowds Of visitors.
Whether or not she will be judged
queen Of the show Is q matter Of con-
lecture. No doubt she will be seriously
considered for the premier honors and
be among tho last four or I'VE winners
to remain in the fight for the coveted
title With her at that time probably
will be Champion Faultless Haymarket,

earned the crown last year; Phantom

The entire lot Of Pekes were Of good

earned applause was that of Choggi In

saw him 80 through his PAGES and win

POLITICAL JOBS FOR SOLDIERS

with the fall elections near at
hand, there is, of course, agitation in
many communities to place army men
in political jobs as reward FOR their
sacrifices to their country. lntorest-
ing in this connection is a letter from
one of these returned soldiers, to the
Passaic,, N. j., Daily News He says
in part:
"As an ex-service man cannot see
why any one of us should get prefer
ence for any Office or job in the city
because we were called to serve our
country, unless we are absolutely cap
able of holding such job or Office.
While know that there arc eX-ser-
vice men capable of holding almost
any office the city has to offer, these
men are not looking for any 'plums,
nor are they willing to be the tools
of any clique.
"The city is facing problems at
present which call for men Of ability
and brains, not hgureheads or tools"
The situation in other communi-
ties must be much Tho same as that
In Passaic. There never was time
when every municipality had such
grave problems to deal with. II is just
as much to the advantage OF the ex.
service man that these problems be
handled by men OF brains and ability
as to the advantage of the other cit
liens.
Given equal qualifications, there
can be no objection to crowning the
soldier with Office in his own town,
II he is not qualified, the wrong Will
be to him as well as to his fellow
townsmen. There Is nothing more
stultifying to ambition, to honesty
and to progress than an easily gained
political Office, held by reason OF pull
rather than efficiency. Such n job
would be a poor Offering for truly
grateful community TO make to any
servant. -;
