A Tentative ..Ffrst Ten"

With the national singles at Philadel-
phia the only remaining event Of the
season in which Americas leading
racket wielders will be gathered there
Is already considerable speculation
among tennis fans as to the probable
makeup of the ranking first ten of 1922.
The championship event beyond any
doubt will affect the standing OF many
OF the candidates for the select circle,
but on the strength of what they al
ready have accomplished this season
omitting all nonresident foreign players
and players who have not competed Of
ten enough to be included-a present
day ranking would have William It,
Tilden and William NJ. Johnston on
even terms at the top. Vincent Richards

Shimizu and Robert Kinsey on even
terms for fifth and SIXTH with Wallace

leading candidates.

were included in the first ten last year

The biggest gain Is that of Robert

delay and get sufficient practice at
Forest Hills to become thoroughly ia
miliar with the conditions OF background

The suggestion, OF course. had TO be
turned down. In the first place the
American committee had not come to
any decision as to the combination they
would call on for the Davis cup doubles
match. There was no certainty that
Tilden and Richards would be the team.
As a matter of fact the committee in
tended to be guided largely by the show
ing OF the Tilden- Richards combination
In their national doubles match with
Patterson and O'Iara Wood. Then. too.
Longwood could not be expected to yield
so fine an attraction as the national
doubles final after conducting the tour
nament all week, nor would the thou
sands OF Boston tennis fans countenance
any such action.
Patterson's suggestion indicates that
Wood and not James o. Anderson, who
has recovered from his illness, will be
his doubles partner at Forest Hills.

son Of California did not disguise his
dislike for the pact, especially its Pa

for ratification on the assurance of

1t would have small effect in reduc-
Ing naval expenditures, predicting that
huge sums now would be spent on

Immediately after the vote of ratifi-
