Plans Already Made for First
of Coming Winters In.
door Contests on Court
By Fred Hawthorne

1t does not seem so long ago that
we were al! getting worked up to q
nigh state of excitement over the i'm
pending final round match between Til
den and Johnston in the national sim
gles championship lawn tennis tour
nament at Forest Hills, yet hero we
are, almost on the eve Of two more
national title tournaments.
beginning Monday, December 27. the
annual national junior and boys cham
plonshlps in singles and doubles will
start on the board floor courts of the
'th Regiment Armory, at Park Avenue
and Sixtysevcnth Street, and will con-
tinue through the week, these being
me hrst of the winters indoor schedule
OF tournaments.
The juniors will be staging their
sixth annual event and the boys their
fourth, and In glancing over the names
Of some Of those who won the titles
IN past years--Elliott H. Binzen, 1916
and 1915; f. H. Hendrickson, 1917. and
Vincent Richards, 1918 and 1919, among
the juniors-it is safe to predict that
the standard of play this year will be
fully as high as on previous occasions.
Richards, IL mistake not, was born
on March 4, eighteen years ago, and
hence will come just within the age
INIT, which permits juniors who have
day by March /, 1920, to compete in
g MS be the case, Richards
Is fairly certain to score his third sue
cessive victory in the championship
tourney, for surely there is no PLAYER
OF his years in the country who is his
equal on the courts.
The boys tournament is open to all
who have not reached their fifteenth
birthday by. March / next. Charles
Wood is the present singles title
holder. The boys and Juniors doubles
Will be combined in one event.
Play will begin on Monday, Decem-
thereafter each day. starting at the
same hour. The entrance fee will be
81 in the singles and 81 a team in the
doubles. Entries for the singles will
close on Thursday, December 23, at 3
p. m., with w. D. Cunningham, 253
Weat Ninety ninth Street, and for tho
doubles at the armory on MSnday, De-
cember 27, at o'clock. Drawings for
the singles will be made publicly at the
arrnory on December % at p. m. and
'or the doubles on December 27 at
$50 p. m.
W. D. Cunningham will act as referee
Of the tournaments and J. p. Allen as
manager. First and runner-up prizes
vii be awarded in each event. Actual
competitors will be allowed TO use the
courts for practice next Monday from

Everything indicates n particularly

The Yale Club scored a decisive VIC
tory over Columbia yesterday after
noon in the continuation of the first
round in the Glass tournament being
conducted by the National Squash Ten
mis- Association and as result the
Harvard Club team, which was not
scheduled to take the courts, is now
leading the Blue and White seven as
we'll as the rest OF the field.
With A. J. Cordier, the national
champion, defending the sacred brindle
bulldog which looks down upon the Yale
courts from the interior of a glass
case, and with Tom Coward, runner-up
for the title, in the best form he has
shown this season, the big "Y" racquet
wellders tore through the local players
with such speed that the Columbians
were unable to take even one match of
the seven played.
Cordier, owing to recent illness, will
not defend his title this year, and yes
teroay was really his first appearance
on the courts. The champion exhibited
rare accuracy and hisc hange of pace
was as good as ever, and although he
is as yet little slow in covering tho
court he showed enough speed to de-
feat L. +. Mahon in straight sets. 15-8
and 15-S.
After losing the first set, e-15, Tom
0o"aro' fale's mainstay during the
present season, rallied and won with
lumbia. The last two sets we're virtual
walkovers for Coward, the scores being
! l5-S and 15-4.
Ihe princeton club team was sent
deeper into the league cellar by its de-
feat at the hands of the fast Crescent
club outfit. The Tigers were really
lucky to Win two matches, R. E. Olds
ana y. De &. Vanderbilt being the only
Prlncetonians to chalk up victories in
the seven matches played
vanderbilt played an unusually good
game, winning in straight sets from
ii. W. Dangler, Crescent PLAYER of
no mean ability. Both Harold Mirsell III
and II. Tobey, easily the best on the
princeton team, were absent from the
! lineup yesterday.
me national handicap tournament,
which is be ng held at the Harvard
Club, is expected to end Monday. The
neld has narrowed down to four con-
testants: F. S. Whitlock, Harvard. and

The Georgia Peach is hurrying East
ward from California for a conference
with President Frank j. Navin, of the
Detroit Tigers, to-day. Navin is bound
to make Ty manager of the Jungaleers,
come what may. He stands ready to
present a contract calling for $50 900 a
year if Cobb Will snatch up the reins
dropped by Hughie jennings at the
close OF the last season.
This is the largest salary ever paid
an American League manager or
player 1t would tie the fabulous sal
ary McGraw last effected with Harry
Hampstead, though the manager of the
Giants had an interest in profits which
is supposed to nave brought his sea
sons earnings above the $4,000 mark
each year.
McGraw Case Different
McCraw now, of course, has large
n1ancial interests in the club, and so
may be eliminated from the mana
aer,al field in the strictest sense of
wiling to talk turkey" he will be the
his very first year.
Indeed, Navin may have to go as
strongly as did Hampstead with the
idea Vi profits on the side) if he is to
land TIE leader Of his choice. Cobb is
not seeking the job. Indeed, he has
continually spurned it. He has said
repeatedly he would accept under no
conditions unit! his playing career was
ended. The fact that he will be here
to-day would indicate a weaken ng
under the cl;nhing OF gold For Ty,
like the great majority of his profess
sion, is thr fly to say the least.
Cobb has been an idol in Detroit
many years, despite a peculiar umpera-
mcnt. 1t is we'll known feud existed
between him ana Jennings for several
seasons. The final upshot to this found
Ty very much in and Hughie very
much out. 1t is certain that Ty did
not make things as rosy for Jennings
IS might be. Year after year he re-
ported for spring practice whenever
he felt like it. During the season he
get to the games after the same
fashion.
Perhaps for this reason Ty is some
what apprehensive of maintaining dis
cipline as manager with bunch of
seasoned players with whom as player
ne fouted the very idea of discipline.
Ir Navin, however, believes Cobb will
be as great q success in the role Of
player manager. and he is the one will
ing to gamble to the extent Of $4,000
