TEN LOCAL DOUBLES
TEAMS ARE RANKED
Ben Letson and Frederick G.
Anderson Are Placed at
Head Of List.
ByNsAMuEL >. BRooKMAN.

Arriving at its findings on the Same
basis tiat figured in the singles ranking
last week, the Metropolitan Tennis AS
sociatioA yesterday announced the
names OF the ten doubles teams which
IN it's opinion dserve to be rated at the
top locally In considering the avail
able data ,he ranking committee. con-
sisting Of Enbree Henderson. Jones w.
AIesereau ana Charles Chambers, as
previously agreed. ignored all tourna-
nlents outsidek the metropolitan district
as well as invitation tournaments within
the district. This left them very little
to work with, and 1t 10 not surprising
that they vera unable TO rank more
than ten teams.
Ben Letson ard, Frederick G. Ander-
son are named at, the top OF the list.
The youngsters wen the New Jersey
State championship and advanced close
TO the final in several other tourna-
ments during tho season. Albert J..
Ostendorf and Francis T. Hunter, who
played together in most of the metro
politan team matches aad In the West
chester county championship. have been
placed second. wililee Vincent Richards
and Alan Behr. last years champions
Of the metropolitan district, are in third
place.
None of these teams as well as the
other seven figured very prominently In
the really important tournaments or the
East. According to the selection method
employed by the ranking committee the
pairs probably were placed correctly.
but not even the ranking cor1mittee will
deny that the teams named are not the
best In the district. Leonard Beekman

who won the New York sectional cham
pionship, and several other combinations
really are stronger than any Of the
teams rated. and showed 1t in invitation
Journeys and in open events in and near
New York. All of them have b,en ex-
cluded because OF insufficient data"
II Is extremely doubtful whether any
thing is to be gained by local tennis
ranking that omits many players who
will find a high rating nationally, and
it will not be surprising II a demand is
made next year for rating that will
Include all tournaments.

NAVY CONSIDERING
NEW OPPONENTS
Looking for Substitute for
Penn Game.

ANNAPOLIS. Nd, Dec. 5.--Naval Acad-
emy authorities have not yet been in
formed directly that the University Of
Pennsylvania will not play the midship-
men next year on the home and home
basis, such as IL arranged with Prince
ton. Accepting the published statement
to that effect as true, however they are
considering other opponents
The first game of the series would be
decided next year on the home grounds
OF their opponents as Princeton will
play at Annapolis. Pennsylvania State,
Yale ana University of Pittsburg are
the most seriously considered though
Harvard and Ohio State have been mem
toned. There is no question that the
Naval Academy would be a big aftrae-
tiou on the home campus OF any OF these,
while thousands OF persons In this section
would attend the game when played In
Annapolis.
The Naval Academy will drop South
Carolina from It's schedule, but Will play
North Carolina State. Lafayette, Buck
nell, Western Reserve and Georgetown,
if they will come to Annapolis. Prince
ton will play late in October. and there
win be room for one more big game.
