Julian S. Myrick, president of tn"
association, is reported to be consid-
ering retirement from office. Strong
pressure no doubt, will be brought ia
bear to keep him in office, as his
regime has hen wonderfully success
ful and his individual care and interets
are largely responsible for the present
flourishing condition of the game.
Another nice task--it is always q
bad joh--will fail upon the ranking
committee when it settles down to
name the first ten players. william
T. Tilden, unofficially the worlds
champion, of course, will be named
No. but the friends of William NJ
Johnston can point out that the Won
dorful little Californian beat the cham
pion three times in major tourna-
ments
The first ten named by the conf
mittee might well be regarded as a
worlds ranking, If the committee
should care to rate the European play

Cap matches Practically all of the
star players from the other side with
the exception of the British, engaged
In most of the important tournu-
ments here during the season.

BRITISH SUPER-PLANE
Is ENTIRELY OF STEEL

LONDON, Nov What is stated
to he the first all-steel bonn bing aero
plane in the world has just been sue
cessfully flown and tested at Farm
borough, England.
Designed and constructed to the re-
quirements Of the British Air Minis
try, this areoplane is built throughout
of steel and is lighter than a similar
machine of wood
1t is driven by two 450-horse- pow
or motors, and it claimed to be able
to reach an altitude of between three
and four miles when fully equipped
with bombs and crew.

NEW YORK, NOV. Gu. PD-
Renewed efforts to take the love
out of tennis may be made in January,
when the United States Lawn Tennis
Association meets for its annual ses-
sion.
Chances are that no official action
will be taken to change the language
of scoring, rs it has been all hashed
over r2fore without success.
If the "love" is to be taken out of
the game, it probably will come about
through the adoption OF the scoring as
practiced in the west.
During the national championships
at Philadelphia it was noticed that
all the umpires from the middle-west
and south omitted "lovc" when they
were calling the scores.
Instead of calling Fifteen love" the
westerners would call Fifteen" and
name the player in the lead like
Fifteen Tilden."
Use of the seeded draw proved so
successful in the national champion
ships that it, no doubt. will be retain
cd as the official method of pairing
the players in all the big tournaments.
Sentiment in the rniddle- west, while
not against the seeded draw particu-
larry, is said to favor an amendment
to make the draw optional for the
committee in charge of the tourna- |
ment |
Some lively scraps are expected |
TO result when the association comes
to awarding the national champion
ships for next season.
Forest Hills, which has been the pet
club of the present regime is said to
be wanting the mems singles cham
which have been staged very
successful for the past two years at
Philadelphia.
The West Side Club at Forest Hills
has been favored with the Davis Cup
challenge round and the women's ma
tlonals but the latter proved some
what of a dust" last summer and it
Is understood the cllb would like 20
pass II off on some other organization.
Efforts probably will be made to J..
gather some color for the tournament
lcNt season. Mile Suzanne Leglen may
De invited to return to play Mrs. NAL
ory and Miss kathicne McKane, the
'oung British star also may be asked $
o compete.

Finally at Rest.

Died-At Alexandria, Louisiana,
Thursday, May 25th, 1922, Mrs. Mollie
A. AXE, reliet of the late Peter AXE,
aged 70 years, 10 months and 9 days.
Succeeding funeral service at the fam
lily residence Friday, the remains
were brought to Ironton and on Sat-
urday evening laid to rest in the Ma
sonic cemetery, a large concourse of
citizens attending.
Deceased was we'll known here and
had been for a long time a resident of
Ironton, removing with other mem
bers of the family to the Southland
ten or twelve years ago. In 1870 she
was united in marriage to Peter AXE,
of Van Buren,, Mo. To this union
three children were born, all of whom,
and the father, preceded her to the
Great Unknown. She was q faithful
wife and devoted mother. The bur-
den laid upon her by Fate was un-
usually heavy, but she bore it with
fortitude and the patience born OF
faith and sustained by self sacrifice.
Surely her existence here was "a vale
Of tears" but she is now happily be-
yond the touch of lear and sorrow,
May eternal years Of peace be hersl

st. Louis, Mo.
The people Of the Valley were
greatly shocked Monday evening by
the announcement that VIM. G..
Whitworth had committed suicide by
shooting himself at his home in Ar
cadia. Mr.. Whitworth lived alone
and shortly after five o'clock that
afternoon stated to a man who had
been cutting the grass in the yard
that his heart was acting queerly,
that he did not feel well and would
go to the house, adding that if he did
not return in q short time to get two
or three other men and come into the
house and look for him. 1t was only
a few minutes until the report of a
gun was heard and three or four of
the neighbors rushed into the house.
Mr.. Whitworth was found lying on
the floor dead, with a quilt under
Linn and a gaping wound in his left
side. He had taken a shot gun, plac-
ed the muzzle against his side, and
with a window stick pushed the trig-
ger. The charge went through his
body and death was instantaneous.
Coroner Farrar held an inquest and
the finding was in accordance with
facts as here stated. The deceased
was a bachelor, a son of the late John
w. Whitworth, forty-seven years
of age; was born and spent practical
ly all the days of his life in the valley.
He possessed many admirable traits
and viii be sincerely mourned by
many; he had been in poor health for
some time and to this may be attri-
buted his tragic end. The only sur
viving members of the immediate
family are Miss Annie Whitworth and
Mrs. Isabelle Campbell, who r max
ing their home in Los Angeles, Cali
fornia. The funeral occurs Wednes-
day afternoon and interment will be
made in the Masonic cemetery.
Peaceful rest to him.

BELFAST
Belfast TO Have Free Clinic for
Children

For the first time Belfast will have
free clinics for children in Osteopath-
ic trea tmcnt. This clinic will be open
ed by a Belfast girl, DIR. Hester Brown,
at her office, 50 High street, Wcdnes-
days and Saturdays from 9 to 10 A.
VI. Miss Brown is the youngest daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. Fred Waldo
Brown and successiOnal practition-
er. The clinics will be opened under
the Bureau of Free Clinics for the
Prevention of Spinal Curvature.
Children u years and under will be
treated without charge. The aim is to
see that all school children are exam
ined twice each year to determine the
presence of spinal curvature. 1t is
said that fully 20 per cent. Of all
school children posses one or more
malpositioncd vertebrae in the spine
and that 40 per cent. at least have
either a slight or well marked curva :
, turr.
mfantilc paralysis cases will also be
treated at these clinics This is a fine
opportunity for the children and DR..
Brown. well known in the city OF her
birth, has been very successful in her
work. Thousands of children are be-
ing treated in similar branch clinics
+ throughout the country
