Foreigners Eliminated
In Tennis Semi-Final.
(Ry Associated Pressl

FOREST HILLS, y. Y. Sept. l.
Four Americans, including two former
champions, played in the semi-fnals
of the national lawn tennis champion
ship tournament here today, all Of the
foreign competitors having been elm
mated R. Morris Williams, II, Boston.
national title holder in 1914, and
1916, was bracketed with William T.
1ilden, II. Philadelphia, and William
NJ. Johnston, San Francisco, national
champion in 1915, with Wallace F.
Johnson, Philadelphia.
Tilden has defeated Williams three
times this season but the former
champion has displayed form in the
tournament that would indicate abil-
ity to withstand the speedy play and
fast service of the Philadelphia.
Tilden's "cannon-ball" service proved
too much for the Australian. Tilden's
"cannonball'' service proved too much
for the Australian, Norman E. Brookes
last Saturday.
Johnston who eliminated Gerald l.
Patterson of Australia and R. Lndley
Murray. last years champion. came
through a hard section of the draw.
He matched his wonderful forehand
stroke against the deceiving chop
stroke of Johnson, whose work in the
tournament surpassed his previous
good record on the courts.

Life Imprisonment Faces
"Alimony Club" Members

NEW YORK, Sept. New York's
famous "Alimony Club" passed into
history at midnight last night, and
thousands of 'slackers" husbands, who
fancied themselves immunized from
alimony payments by a sojourn at the
club" in Ludlow Street Jail again will
face the possibility of imprisonment.
The "Almony Club" was made pos
sible by d law providing that when
man refused TO pay alimbny he should
be committed to Jail for period of
not more than six months. Thereafter
he was immune from further pay
ments or mOleStation.
Under an amendment to the code of
civil procedure, however. effective at
midnight tonight, the husband who re-
fuses to obey a supreme court order
for alimony payment faces possible
life imprisonment.
The amended law provides that the
delinquent husband may be placed in
jail for contempt of court for every
failure to pay installments as ordered
by the court. He may be punished
for contempt time after time-until
he dies or reforms
