MRS. WIGHTMAN
is TENNIS WINNER
Former National Champion
and Miss Force Take FlOri-
da Doubles Title.

Special Despatch to TIE New YonKf HERALD.
PALM BEACH, Fla, Feb 26.--Mrs.
George w. Wightman of Boston, former
national singles champion. and Miss
Katherine Force of New York won the
women's doubles lawn tennis champion
ship of California this afternoon by de-
feating Mrs. Rawson L. Wood of New
York and Miss Phyllis Walsh of Phila-
nual tournament. held on the Clay Courts
Of the Palm Beach Tennis Club. The
score was 6-3. 4-6. 8-6.
1t was only by the narrowest of mar
gins that Mrs Wightman and Miss
Force pulled out a most keenly contested
match.
After winning the first set without
undue difficulty, the new champions were
cleanly outplayed by Mrs. Wood and Miss
Walsh in the second session. and in the
third, after gaining lead OF 4-2 on
games, they wavered under the spirited
attack of the New York; Philadelphia
combination. and the games were forced
to 6--all before Mrs. Wightman. leading
furious assault. won the last two
games for her side, thus winning the
set, match and championship.
In the morning session Mrs. Wight
man and her partner had reached the
title round by defeating Miss Gertrude
Conway and Miss Annette Tilford OF
New York by score of rs. 81,
While Mrs Wood and Miss Walsh had
come through at the expense of Miss
Marjorie Dunlap and Miss Katherine
ORourke, who had gone down under a
6--1, Ga score.
Mrs. Wightman was the shining star
OF the final doubles match, and she was
always prepared to finish off n keenly
fought rally with severe and accurate
smash or a sudden and battling change
Of pace Frequently she chopped short
return just over the net when the op-
posing players had been caught near
their base line Miss Force, who was
made the centre of the attack by Mrs.
Wood and Miss Walsh, stood up re-
markably wer under the combined bonn
bardment. taking her place at the net
when necessary to turn back the hard
driving returns of her opponents, and
also earning many points by well judged
lobbing.
Miss Walsh was the aggressor on her
side Of the net, at times vy!ng with Mrs.
Wightman in the vigor of her overhead
and volleying play. Mrs. Wood. who
did not have her shots under full con-
troll In the first two sets, came to life
sensationally in the final session. and as
result she and Miss Wash pulled up
from "a on games to s all. At this
crucial stage. however. Mrs. Wightman
showed her quality by forcing the net
position single handed and smothering
returns beautifully as she covered her
own and much of her partners court.

Tad Jones Will Not Rush
Selection of Assistants
Yale Football Coach May Not Name His Cabinet"
Until Summer-Charlie Taft Chet La Roche
and DR.. Bull Are Probabilities.

Special Despatch to THE NEW YORK HERALD.
New HAVEN. Conn. Feb. 26.--The Sc
lection of football cabinet at Yale is
proving almost as difficult a task as that
of picking a Presidents Cabinet. Tad
Jones is spending a good deal of time
these days trying to make up his mind
for this, that and the other position.
these positions taking rank, as far as
Importance to Yale football Is concerned,
with those named by President-elect
Harding for his official family. Many
rames have been recommended to Jones
and he has weeded the candidates out
until he has before him not more than a
dozen eligibles. 1t is a process of elimi-
nation, and Jones intends to surround
himself with the best men, he can find
for the jobs even IL his choice of a
cabinet" Is not made until late In the
summer.
One of the men believed to be decided
upon is Charles p. Taft. 2d. son of Prof.
William Howard Taft, and a varsity
player of four or five years ago. Taft
will graduate from the Yale Law School
this year. and before he settles down In
Cincinnati for life, he will spend a few
months assisting in the development of
a football team at Yale. He has had
plenty of experience as a player and
coach. and the selection would. In the
opinion OF Yale men, be good one.
Taft assisted Chet La Roche In coach
ing the world-beating freshman team of
last fall and his instruction. especially
of the line men. went a long way
toward developing one of the best sets
of forwards that ever represented a
first year team at Yale.
La Roche himself who has shown
great ability as a coach. may be pressed
into service, but Jones will not comment
The New York herald., 1921-02-27

on the matter. 1t is quite positive how
ever, that Jones will not call on many
of the men who helped him last fall, In
spite of reports made several weeks ago
that the coaching staff might be returned
intact.
DR.. Billy Bull who holds the degree of
doctor of drop kicks and punts, will be
found on his old job next fall. but DR..
Arthur L. Brides, line coach JACK Field.
back field instructor, and Harry Vaughan
OF the 1920 football faculty, will be
missing. Vaughan failed to develop a
good pair o. ends last year and the call
is heard for another coach of the flank
men.
The name of Charley Comerford. end
on Cupie Blacks championship team of
1916 is heard frequently when football
men discuss the game here. and it is
probable, they say, tnat ne Will succeed
Vaughan. Yale is used to having good
ends and Jones wants the best coach
available 1t Is understood that the
names of Taft Bull and Comerford were
acted upon favorably by the graduate
board of control which met here this
week and that other names were dis
oussed.
Jones, Captain Aldrich and johnny
Mack met with the board. whose chair
man Is Louis u. Stoddard of this city,
and the football situation was gone
over in detail. Jones reported on the
work of the men in their first indoor
practice, which is now on, and gave the
board to believe that the innovation
would prove a beneficial one. The board
and Jores realize that success will le-
pend in a measure on the resident coach
ing staff in New Haven next fall, and
for that reason the greatest care is being
given to the selection of assistants to
the head coach.

ginia here this afternoon by 26 to 4,
taking four bouts on decisions and two
on falls. West Virginia got Its only

usual dash and knowledge of a variety
of holds, but encountered particularly
stiff opposition. Though this was not
indicated by the points, only Lewis. the
powerful midshipman In the 175 pound

a double arm lock on Pitzenberger, his
opponent, and got him to the mat, where
he slipped one arm to half nelson and
pinned him in a second under the min
ute.
