discouraged.
Not so with young Alphonso Smith,
from Annapolis. however" says the
Baltimore Evening Sun of yesterday.
This boy journeyed up from the
State capital just to play in the Ju-
nior State Championship on the
courts of the Baltimore Country Club
And after dropping that first set he
made his opponent hustle all over the
court to pick up a single point. TAX

Alphonso is IL years old He
weighs about 10 pounds and looks less
But when he once gets on the court
everybody marvels at the way the boy
reels off stroke after stroke from a
racquet that appears good bit big
ger than he. And his game is featured
by versatility same as Tilden's, for
when pressed he stops driving and
resorts TO . deceptive chop. Although
he cannot expect to win the Junior
crown this summer Alphonso should
be one of the country's leading young
net stars in a very few years.
,Silverman still appears to be the
class of the field. and barring any
serious upset should win without much
trouble. He went through to the third
round yesterday without teing press

his matches in easy fashion. He ap-
