INVITE ALL PHILADELPHIA
TO SEE BILL TYLDEN PLAY
Many Ways to Reach
Courts in the Park

There are many ways in which
the tennis courts ut Strawberry
Mansion, Fairmount Park. may be
reached. For those living in West
Philadelphia, the easiest way is to
take the Park trolley at either
Forty fourth or Fifty second and
parkside avenue. This line goes over
Dauphin street and the trolley
bridge. For those living elsewhere,
Route o on Arch street, the Mana
yunk car on Ridge avenue or any
other line that goes to the vicinity
of Thirty first and York streets will
be convenient.

TUo OIL uOWH, VI Ntbnu up, anu
i mark that luck plays no part in the
game, that only pluck and skill count,
Is merely to utter collection of bosh.
Pluck and skill are vital factors. But
there are many occasions when any
numbcr of entries step forward who are
blessed with both, and then the turn of
the game may depend upon some slight
shift in fortune. Luck may work out
in several different directions. It may
be matter of drive that is fair or
foul by six inches-of a thirty foot putt
TINT drops or a three-foot putt that
barely curls out.
Or it may be matter Of being cx-
actly on edge at the big moment, or
facing the decisive test at n time when
touch and timing are missing for no rea =
son that one can find.
A Few Illustrations
\ NY number of ball players had made
bigger mistakes than Fred Merkle
made In 1908. Yet it was his tough
break to horn in with n blundcr in the
most important game of the year with
the spotlight focused upon every player.
ball players have dropped fly balls
before, but Fred Snodgrass practically
wrecked his career by muffing one in
the closing whirl of an eight game world
series
In the series of 1914 johnny Evers.
one OF the smartpst ball players that
ever lived, went into trance and held
the pa at second while IN Athletic run

taken as a joke. as the Braves won any
way IN four game drive.

Il matter of luck pure and simple.
Last spring he lost a championship
on the same green by missing a three
foot putt.
Beyond Luck
T Is for this reason that the popu-
lace at large appreciates the value of
such stars as Cobb and Ruth
Ihey are beyond any turn of luck.
When. one man leads all competitors
for twelve years there can no longer be
any argument as to where he belongs in
comparison with all rivalry.
When n ball player pecls Off seventy
home runs in less than two seasons il
is no longer a matter of lucky break.
At Inverness
THE picked golfng talent of the
l. country is now battling at Invcr-
ness. The winner will need three ele-
ments-pluck. skill and luck.
Out of the field there will be four or
| five so well matched that final scores
will depend upon whether few long
puts dropped, or a few short ones
stayed out.
One man stops just snort of bunker
on poor shot and the other catches
deep hcelprint that may cost two
strokes.
A turn Of this sort cost Brady the
championship last year. In the recent
British open Ted Ray had rounds of II

he could tell he was hitting his shots

right for his II, nothing for his SO.

board Of education say that others
will present their designations soon,
on ccoun of the low salaries.
The majority Of the teachers in the
city schools receive only $25 to $50 a
month, and they say they are unable
to live on that meager pay. CONNER
cial houses have employed these
teachers at more than double the sal
aries they received in the schools.
The board of, education. with the
approval of the governor general, has
offered to increase the salaries Of the
teachers by lfive dollars a month at the
beginning Of the next school term in
June, but it is said>this proposed in
