TENNIS SINGLES
TOURNEY STARTS
Greatest Tournament Ever Known
For Championship opens To-
day on West Side Club
Courts

NEW YORK, Aug. 25.-On the
courts OF the West Side Tennis club
at Forest Hills, L. l., there started
today the greatest tournament for
the tennis singles championship OF
the United States ever known.
Not even in the days OF inter
national cup competition when the
illustrious Norman E. Brookes and
his partner, the late Anthony Wild
ing, came here to engage Williams,
Mclaughlin and other famed stars OF
the American turf court, did interest
mount higher peaks than 1t has
reached in anticipation Of the forth
coming matches. The reason for In.
terest isn't hidden far. There is the
relaxation from war strain, which
kept tennis Journeys for the last few
years very tame affairs. And then
there is the visit of the famous Aus.
tralians-Brookes. again; Randolph
Lycett, R V. Thomas and Gerald
Patterson.
Sectional play and invitation tour
naments throughout the country in
days preceding the blue-ribbon event
on Long Island have been unusually
rich in happenings Of interest. Only
couple of weeks ago Robert Lindley
Murray, the national champion, was
humbled by Ichiya Kumagae, the
Manipulating little Jap star who first
came into public notice in this coun-
try three years ago. And at the
same time the colors of Richard Nor
ris Williams, considered the strong
est of players on this side, were
lowered by the youthful William T.
Tilden, Of Philadelphia. Maurice E.
Mclaughlin capttulated in the same
tournament to the left-handed cum
ming of s. Howard Voshell. who, by
the way, appears to be playing bet
ter tennis than at any time in his
life.
Prominent players already carded
in the draw are Murray. Williams,
Voshell, Kumagae, the four Aus
tralians, Mclaughlin, William M.
Johnston, Vincent Richards, Charles
s. Garland, Leonard Beekman, Theo-
dcre Roosevelt Pell, Karl Behr, Dean
Mathey, Nat w. Niles, Axel Craven,
Robert Kinsey, Wallace johnson,
Watson M. Washburn, Clarence j.
Griffin, Thomas G. Bundy, and many
others OF lesser renown.
Not so much consideration is be-
ing given the probable ability of the
invading players from the antipodes.
When 1t was first reported they
would attempt to lift tennis honors
here, there was some trepidation,
but experts contend now the Ameri-
can stars will prove fully equal to
the defense Of prime honors. More
fear is felt over the probable victory
of Ichiya Kumagae the jap, whose
playing is far better this year than
in his previous appearances in ma
tional play.

good baseball all through the season,

made the games interesting. Had the
Gil men won Saturday they would
have created tie in the percentage
column, but the tailenders spoiled any
such proceedings by coping the
game by the score of to 2.

In the second game, Hayes again
went the route for the grocers and
when Roam made a three Dagger in
the seventh and scored on wild peg
home from the outfeld, Hayes chalk
ed up his second victory for the after
noon. Only three hits were made off
him, while Metz was hit ten times.
