As was her custom and in the in

beggar:

The poor old man. not knowing
that he was talking to his queen,
related his history as follows:
My name is Berghof. I was for

French. who captained the American
international professional team last
year. French, who has just recovered
from q long illness, is playing the best
golf he has ever played. He had no
trouble eliminating Ralph Miner, of
Boston, and 2.
Poor putting prevented French from
winning by q larger score. In the
morning, with lead Of 4 up. he took
three puts on each Of the last four
green's, and yet managed to finish ! up.
In the afternoon he was out in 80, and
ended the match on the eleventh hole.
Pittsburgh golfers were mostly con-
cerned with the result Of the LoefTler-
greenkeeper of the local club and
Towns is the professional at the
Shinnopin Club in Pittsburgh. Their
meeting was regular blood battle.
Loeffler, a hard fighting, capable
golfer, was down all the way until the
fifteenth hole was reached; yet he won
the contest, and Q. At the end of
the morning round he was 8 down.
Before the turn in the afternoon he
had lost two holes more. Yet Dutch,
as he Is familiarly known out here,
never gave up.
LoetfIer's Strong Finish
He plugged along and gradually cut
down his opponents lead. Loeffler's
very persistence must have discon-
certed Towns, for, with lead of two
holes, he tossed away hole at the
twelfth green. Loeffler had missed his
second and third shots on this hole
and had taken five strokes to reach the
green. Towns was in a trap just to
the left of the green in g
He played his third hurriedly and
carelessly and failed to get out. In
making sure of his next shot he over
ran the green, Clipped back, then
missed the putt, enabling Loeffler to
get half in T. Thus aided, Loet-
fer laid his tee shot dead to the pin
OH the next hole and squared the
match. Then he went out and won.

Japan to Send Young
Tennis PLAYERS Here

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 15.-Japan is
building formidable tennis organiza-
ton with the sole purpose of capturing
the Davis Cup within FIVE years if pos.
sible, according to Wallace Bates. CAP
tain of the University of California
tennis team that toured japan and
China this summer.
The frs. step in the campaign, Bates
said, will be to send Toba and Fukuda.
college stars, to the United States to
take a postgraduate course in Ameri
can tennis methods.
Japan realizes, according to Bates.
that Zenzo Shimizu and Ichiva Kuma
gaze, its Davis Cup competitors last
year, will be succeeded sooner or later
and Toba, who is twenty-three wears
old, and Fukuda, twenty-six. are re-
garded as their logical successors.
Other talent, he said, is being developed
in all the colleges and secondary
schools.
Two factors may hold the Japanese
back in their Davis CUP ambitions"
Bates stated. "They are weak service
and practically no net game. The slow
tanning serve is the result of the
wide use of rubber practice balls.
Although these are still popular with
the great mass of the players, the col
leges and secondary teams are using
fiannel-coyered halls ~
