TENNIS RULES BODY n
OVERSIGHT THE TARCET
Committee Spoiled Good York Of Classification ~
by Proposing UntenabIe Section on Score
Changing and Hnidcapping
BY SPICK HALL

TNHE rules committee of the United
l. States National Lawn Tennis Asso-
citation in making its recommendations
for changes in the laws governing
the ever growing sport in this country
were afflicted with a severe attack of
overzealousness. The association at
its meeting in New York February
no doubt will accept many of the pro-
posed revisions but there are many
others which will not be accepted ana
which should not be.
In simplifying the diction and clari-
flying the rules generally, the COM
mittee took step that should have
been taken years ago. For example the
obsolete term "striker- out" has been
replaced by "receiver." Many other
similar changes have been proposed, the
rules have been shortened and made
clear where previously they had been
shrouded in haze of lengthy semi
legal verbage. In brief, the committee
has translated the rules from English
into American.
A Double Fault
But after accomplishing a great work
the five members of the committee COM
pletely spoiled their perfectly good labor
by suggesting n sweeping revision of
the scoring and handicap rules. The
worst feature is found in the recon-
mendations on Scoring, because every
player is affected. Few players com
pete in handicap tournaments and at
best handicap playing is bad, conse-
quently it doesn't matter great deal
what is done with the sections govern :
ing this feature of the game.
To be sure the present system of
scoring points is arbitrary and utterly
senseless upon analysis. There is no
reason why the first two points should
be counted fifteen and the third ten,
but the time is not yet ripe for a
change, not because the proposed
81, 2, 3, ~ point system wouldn't be
better, but because the U. s. N. l. T. A.
cannot maze the rule apply universally,
which is essential if this country is tc
renew international competition. If the
national association feels that change
in the scoring rules is imperative il
first should join the international
Lawn Tennis Federation, then lay its
propositions before that hodv.
A Love Story
One Of the main reasons why the
present scoring system was put up for
sacrifice on the altar of radicalism was
to eliminate the word Glove" 1t has
been argued that the use of this equiva
lent for zero has caused tennis to be-
come generally thought of as girls
game and not one for husky athletes
The gigantic strides that tennis has
made in the United States in the last
few years proves that this theory nc
longer holds good, jf it ever did. Tht
time has long passed when tennis is tc
be considered anything but game fo,
the real athlete except by those totally
ignorant of all sports.
The adoption of tennis in our army
camps and its elevation to major
sport in number of colleges is suf
ficient proof of how the athletic public
looks upon tennis. If any one Graves
an argument on this point just let him
tell Herman Hindip, the well known
