LONDON. Dec. 92.-The last barrier
&c Americas participation in the
world tennis championship may be re
moved in the present conference OF
the international Tennis Federation
which is trying to standardize the
rules ard effect other changes.
The United States has been un-
officially represented in the world
championship in the past and William
T. TiIden won the title of world cham
pion. but the American association did
not recognize the tournament and
therefore could not recognize its own
man as champion. The reason was
that the tournament was held per
uetually by Wimbledon. England. and
the United States Lawn Tennis Asso-
citation believed the tourney should be
passed around on plan resembling
the Davis cup challenge round.
Henry J. Slocum. the American
representative at the present confer
ence. probably will be permitted to
make a plea for a change Of venue
which concession would bring America
into the competition.
