Metropolitan Tourney at
West Side Club Prom
ises to Set New Mark
By Fred Hawthorne

The annual women's ,netronolitan
lawn tennis championship tournament
in singles and doubles, which begins
next Monday morning on the turf
courts of the West Side Tennis Club. at
Forest Hills, L. T., promises to be the
most notable holding of the classic in
several years
| do not remember when I have seen
a more exceptional entry list, outside of
the national event than will start plav
next week. The tourney takes on par
tlcular Importance this year because
of the fact that Miss Molla Biurstedt.
the present metropolitan and national
tltle-holder, probably will be extended
as she has never been before to retain
her laurels.
The metropolitan will mark the first
OF a series of Journeys on the grass
courts that will serve to prepare the
players for the crucial test in the ma
tlonal at Philadelphia, beginning on
June 16.
Morse Girl Faces Hard Test
With the possibility that Miss Mary
K. Browne, Mrs. Thomas c. Bundy and
Mrs. George w. Wightman, all former
national champions, will make the trip
to Philadelphia to contest the women's
premier honors Of the courts with the
great Morse girl the significance of
these testing tournaments can. be i'm
agined. Upon the results of these fix
lures we probably will be able to gain
a good line on the eventual winner Of
the national crown this year.
Following the metropolitan, the
women will turn out at the annual in
vltatlon tourney of the Ardsley Club,
which always attracts a splendid entry
and which begins this year on June
8, on the fine turf courts overlooking
the Hudson. The following week the
stars will fit to the Philadelphia
Cricket Club and there decide who
shall reign supreme for another twelve
months.

sational riding at the Velodrome in

the race to suit himself.

has for its purpose the gathering of in
formation regarding pure bred livestock
in New England which may oe avail

WOMAN INTRODUCED
FIRST BILL PASSED
New York Legislature Cele-
brates Occasion When Gov
ernOr Signs Measure
MRS. SAMMIS, AUTHOR
BilI. Opposed Only by Two Socialists,
Extends Duck shooting Season On
Long Island

Albany. N. Y, Jan. 14.-To n woman
belongs the distinction of introducing
the first bill to pass the 1919 Legisla-
ture and to become a law by receiving
the signature of Governor Smith. The
bill, which was introduced by Mrs.
Ida B. Sammis, republican, would ex-
tend the open season for duck shooting
on Long Island.
The signing of the measure was
made the occasion of an informal cele-
braton as in addition to being the
first bit of legislation in the history
of the tSate to be introduced by a
woman, it also was the first statute
o receive formal action by Governor
Smith. 1t, therefore, becomes Law No.
1 of the laws of 1919.
The signing was made the vehicle
of mutual congratulations between
Governor Smith and Mrs. Sammis.
Later the governor presented to Mrs.
Sammis the pen with which he affixed
his signature.
The measure passed the Legislature
to-day. It's course was unobstructed
except by the negative votes of the
two socialist assemblymen. In his first
speech Of the year, Socialist Assem-
blyman Claessens criticised Mrs. Sam
mis- for attempting to expedite such
legislation, which he said, was for the
sole benefit of "a few duck killing
millonaires." Mrs. Sammis' maiden
speech in which she explained that I'M
less enacted before January Is the
measure would be imperative and that
the only purpose of the law was to
make State and federal statutes con-
form, was loudly applauded by all but
the socialist members
