NATIONAL TENNIS
. PLANS COMPLETED
George T. Adee Will Be Referee
Of Six Championships at
Forest Hills
WILL START PLAY AUGUST rs

New York, June 27.-Plans for the
national lawn tennis championship
tournament which will begin on Au-
gust 25 on the West Side Tennis Club
courts at Forest Hills virtually were
completed at a meeting Of the tourna-
ment committee, Of which Julian s..
Myrick is chairman.
This committee from the club acts
with the one representing the United
States National Lawn Tennis Associa-
tion-George Il. Adee, Edwin F. Tor
rey, G. Frederick Watson, Jr. The
preliminary arrangements involve sew
eral changes which are expected to find
favor with all interested
Because six championships are to be
decided at this tournament it has a
broad appeal. In addition to the ma
tional singles title the others are the
Junior and boys championships in sin
giles and doubles, the veterans cham
pionship and the father and son cham
pionship. Players of note from other
countries are likely to take part. An
Australian team is almost sure to COM
pete.
A change which doubtless will be ap-
preciated by visiting players will be al
attempt to provide entertainment fol
them. This generally has been limited
to a dinner, but with the restraint Of
wartime conditions removed this year il
was considered desirable to provide more
definite means of entertainment. Stuart
Johnston and Charles S. +anders have
this in charge.
Harry Parker will handle the tickets
as in past seasons, and these will soor
be available at 101 Park avenue. The
prices remain as usual, with the addi-
tion Of the war tax. Season tickets good
for a seat during the whole tournament
cost $3.50, and will be sold until Au
gust 20.

Wimbledon, June 27.--Mlle. Su-
same Lenglen, the twenty year old
tennis player, who halls from
France, is the sensation Of the Eng
lish tennis circles as result of her
two set victory over Mrs. Largonbe.
in the third round of the woman's
championship here yesterday. Mile.
Lenglen won, 6-2, 6-1.
1t was universally agreed among
the critics in the gallery that the
French girl is the finest woman
player seen here since the visit of
Miss May Sutton, of California, in
1907. American players are specu-
lating on the probable result of n
match between Mile. Lenglen and
Miss Molla Bjurstedt or Mrs. George
w. Wightman.
