Two-Section Davis
Cup Competition
Plan Us Favored
System Advocated Would Do
Away With Heavy Expense
and Numerous Defaults

LONDON, July 1S (By The Asso-
ciated Press) ).-The British lawn ten
mis- councils decision to withdraw the
British Isles team from the Davis Cup
match was due mainly to financial
considerations. it was learned to-day.
1t was declared the British Lawn Ten
mis- Association lost more than $1,000
on last years invasion of the United
States, and despite the fact that this
years "tie" in the United States would
be in the final round of the tourna-
ment, another heavy loss would be
inevitable, owing to the fact that
Major A. r. F. Kingscote and Ran
dolph Lycett would be unable to par
ticipate.
Tennis players generally finance
transatlantic tours through a tour
nament levy of two shillings for each
competition they take part in. The
general feeling is that England should
not have challenged unless she was
matches. The sentiment prevails that
men like Gilbert, Gordon-Lowe, Camp
bell and Turnbull were capable of
putting up a creditable fight.
On the other hand, it is pointed out
in tennis circles that this years partial
collapse of the Davis Cup competition
with succession Of defaults through
heavy expenses due to transatlantic
tours has proved the case for those
who assert that the competition must
be remodeled. "The Westminster Ga
zette's" plan is to divide the compe-
tition into two sections-one American
and the other European-giving every
challenger each year the option of
playing through either section.
Gerald L. Patterson, the Australian
player, informed The Associated Press
to-day that he warmly supports this
plan, under which only one country
each year would have to face the ex-
pense Of a transatlantic voyage. The
French, Belgian and Spanish players
and some Of the English players, in
cluding McNair, formerly Davis Cup
team captain, also favor such plan.

Many Brilliant Shots
n. match abounded with brilliant
,sats. but neither was consistent in
,ssurn of service, so that the match
yas bitterly fought. Serving better
,hau at any time in his career, Davies
snally steadied enough to pull out both
sets. T--5 and 81.
Another Pacific Coast youngster who
had to struggle to gain his third round
bracket was Phil Bettens, who. was
ranked No. 8 on the Coast last year.
Opposing Walter |. Badger jr., former
IL tale oarsman, Bettens had to strug-
ele to hold his opponent even, but he
aid SO by mixing his shots, while
Badger relied solely on speed, that was
not always we'll controlled.
{. R. Larned, the New York veteran
who won leg on o Longwood bowl
more than a decade ago, continued to
advance at the expense of local
player, A. N. Reggie, and if he wins
sgain tomorrow against Sidney Beals
he will oppose Tilden in the fourth
round. Starting tomorrow the matches
will be best three in five sets, and the
pairings are as follows: Tilden vs.. Bet

feated his Longwood clubmate after
easing up in the second set It was a
different story in the Shaw-W Wilbar
match, for the former dropped the
frst set at Is, and lost only two
games in subsequent sets.
An excellent start was made in the
doubles, fourteen matches being COM
pleted. Sultry weather was tempered
by an occasional breeze, but most of
the matches were concluded as fast
as possible by the stronger teams. To-
days play marked the first appearance
Of Tilden and Wallace johnson in
tournament doubles and they punished
themselves bit to win with the loss
Of only one game.

Child Labor Law Causes
A Scarcity of Caddief

LYNCHBURG, Va, July 18.-Goifers
of the Oakwood Country Club here and
at other golf clubs throughout the
state are in arms over the new child
labor law, which prohibits boys under
sixteen years of age working in any
place Of amusement.
The result is that there are now
three or four golfers to every caddie.
There is daily rush to the links and
many business Offices are vacated early
by golfers who are opposed to trudg-
ing around eighteen holes with golf
bag on one shoulder. Many of those
interested in golf declare the clause
prohibiting young caddies is ridiculous
and hold that boys are greatly bene-
fited by the outdoor life.

Our'younger readers are acquaint-

March is generally blustery, and
March 1, 1922, behaved according to
custom.
Among our slave people, away

The long blowing month was I'M

a bad blowing month.
The vernal equinox comes in
March, when the sun will rise at .
o'clock in the morning and go down
at p. M, and the days and nights
will be equal, and the same thing
comes to pass on the twenty-first OF
September.
Generally we have the wind blow

in the fall, and they are very con-
slant in occurrence. The system ap-

or be postponed while Old Boreas

rain and fierce flurries of wind, from
dawn to dark.
The Boomerang
A great many people have heard
about boomerangs, and many more
have no idea what the particular
name stands for, and very few in
this country ever saw the weapon.
1t seems to be a product of Aus
tralia and our readers who read his
tory are aware that Australia was
originally a penal settlement, used
by the British government to get
away the undesira5les without haV-
ing to execute severe punishment on
their convicts.

ing and handling genuine Austria

by q long time resident of the Aus
tralian colony, but regular citizen
and in .,nowise a convict. 1t was
