On Details for
Davis Cup Play
Committee Prepares Report
andRecommendationsf for
International Net Classic
BY Fred Hawthorne

The Davis Cup committee of the
United States Lawn Tennis Association
held meeting last night in this city
for the purpose Of preparing its re-
port and recommendations. These will
be presented to the executive commit
tee for its approval when the latter
body meets next Saturday morning.
Chief Importance attaches to these
conferences because of the bearing the
action taken will have on the interna-
tional matches for the Davis Cup this
year. As at present arranged the
United States team will meet South
Africa in one Of the preliminary
matches, while the British Isles faces
Holland. The winners of these matches
will play each other in the Anal round,
and the victor in that struggle will
gain the right to play Australasia in
the challenge round, in New Zealand.
The twenty-frst annual national in
door championship tournament in
singles and doubles for men, which be-
gins at the 9TH Regiment Armory next
Saturday morning, holds high promise
Of bringing out some sterling tennis.
Vincent Richards. the seventeen-year
old titleholder, will defend his cham
pionship, and S. Howard Voshell, who
has two legs on the big trophy, will
make a most determined bid to gain
permanent possession by winning the
championship again.
understand that William T. Tilden
I'd, former ttleholder in the singles
and runner-up last year, and also
holder of the doubles honors with
Richards, will also compete, although
his official entry has not yet been re-
ceived.
Among the other strong contenders
will be the brilliant Anderson broth
ers, Frank 7. and Fred c.; Alrick
Man jr. and Harold A. Taylor, and
possibly Frederick B. Alexander
If .he bid for little cheap publicity
were not such an imposition on the
young Richards will defend his title
ago DR.. Robinson. writing on let
tcrhead Of "The Medical Review of Re-
views" sent out typewriter state
mcnt to the effect that acting on his
earnest advice. Vincent Richards had
decided to withdraw altogether from
indoor tennis on account Of the in
jury it was doing his eyes. This would
have been perfectly proper had it been
true, but Richards, evidently not
grasping DR.. Robinsons motives
calmly announces that he will play in
doors again. "Of course"---
l hope that DR.. Robinson has saved
room in his scrapbook for these two
paragraphs to paste just below those
concerning Richards's retirement.

100000 Golf
Club Formed
Near the Citv

Plans for the construction of one of
the most centrally located golf links
in this district have been formulated
by group of players under the name
of the Pelham Country Club. The
course will lie between Pelham Manor
and New Rochelle, in Westchester
County, making it possible to reach the
grounds from the heart of this city in
thirty-iive minutes. 1t is expected that
the first bail will "sail' off the tee in
June of next year.
Membership in the club will be

agement.
Additional property acquired by the
club consists of ITO acres os cleanup
woodland that has pever been plowed.
The ground extends almost adjacent
to the shore at Travers Island, with
beautiful hazards and stream run
ming practically through the entire
length Of the property. At one point
is historic rocky eminence. known as
Mount Tom, where one Of the tees will
be erected
Devereux Emmett. the we'll known
| links architect. has been engaged to
lay out the course. His plans call for
total length of q trifle more than
$500 yards. With view to making
| for general comfort and obviating con-
geston, the layout will extend so as
to bring the ninth green close to the
clubhouse.
Prominent among the organizers are

ecutive committee, 26s Madison Avenue

Four Disputed
points Likely
TO Be Cleared
Standardized Ball, Stymie
and Other Matters To
BE Discussed in London
By Ray Mccarthy

One Of the most important meetings
IN the history of golf will be recorded
sur;nc the month of May, when the
sommittee Of the United States Golf
Assoc;ation confers with the English
committee at London on proposed
shances in the rules and on other mat
tiers pertaining to the links pastime.
7, was announced last night that
caorre II. Walker, Of st. Louis. presi-
dent Of the United States Golf Associa-
zion. had appointed committee to go
shroad to confer with the Britons. He
has named four men to accompany him
shroad. They are Frederick s. Wheel
Az of New York; j. F. Byers, of Pitts
hurgh: Howard F. Whitney, of New
york. and Robert A. Gardner, of Chi
This delegation will sail on the Ca
ron;a on May %, and will proceed d.
rectlv to London for conference with
a c. Croome, who is chairman of the
sub-con,mittee which is considering the
standard ball matter. At Muiriield the
American golfers Will work in conjunc-
ton with the Royal and Ancient Golf
Committee or the proposed changes in
:he rules. Incidentally. Mr.. Gardner
will also play in the British amateur
championship TO be held at Muirfeld
il June.
England Requests Conference
With the game booming tremendous
II in England, as we'll as here, and
with international matches likely to be-
come regular annual fixtures hereafter.
this meeting will be of considerable
importance. England is really the in
stigator of this joint committee gather
Ing. inasmuch as the Royal and An
Gent club sent over an invitation last
fall requesting such conference. At
the meeting of the L. S. G. A. in Jan
uary it was decided to take up the
matter.
This Will be the first time in the
history Of the game that such an official
golf representation has journeyed to
Great Britain from this country. In
the committee contains former presl-
dent and two vice-pre sldents.
However. it is the presence of Gard
ner that adds prestige to the commit
tee The former executive committee
man is splendid player having been
champion in 1902 and 1915, and he
knows the game from every angle. His
presence at the conclave is sure to have
big influence in whatever is done.
To Discuss Four Rules
The secretary of the U. S. G. A. is
sending notices to the various sec
tional associations; also to the Profess
sional Golfers Association, in order to
get consensus of opinion on several
Of the proposed changes in the rules.
In addition to the question of the
Standardization of the golf ball, there
are three regulations that are likely tc
be changed or unifed-the stymie, the
lost ball rule and the rule governing
out of bounds play. The stymie is not
played in the Western part Of the
United States. 1t is likely slight
changes will be made in all OF these
matters.
The Women's Golf Association of
Philadelphia, it has been learned, has
placed Mrs. Ronald II. Barlow, the
North and South and Eastern women's
champion, at plus 1 on the handicap
list Mrs. Vanderbeck, Miss Caverly
and Mrs. c. F. Fox have all been placed

MOVING STATE INSTITUTIONS
There Is a movement ga foo. SD the

them into one couglomuate institution
