Jones had one bad out nine at
Skokie in the open championship
just concluded. or he might have
been able now to sign his name
Robert T Jones. open champion Of
the United States"
But has il not been experience of
champions to go through fire before
reaching the heights. Take the case
of Chick Evans. one of the finest
golfers the game has ever produced.
Evans. with the natural skill and
grace of a Nardon. was seMi-
finalist in the amateur back in 1909.
He was q tinalist in 1912 and it was
agreed that. as in Jones case. Evans
could not long be denied. Yet Evans
won his first amateur title in 1916
at Merton, the year Jones broke into
high-class company.
Evans went through the test Of
heartbreaks. hard luck and the other
ordealS through which the champion
must pass. He went through them
all smiling and emerged one of the
most popular champions the game
has known.
Evans Had to Fight.
Perhaps the fates are preparing
the same way for Jones Witness
the 1910 championship at Brookline,
when Evans had the veteran W. c.
Fownes 2 down and 3 to go in the
semi-final, only to lose the match.
Fownes easily defeated Warren X.

Evans had many times defeated

golfers are pulling for LONESOME of

flashed along the golf horizon-to

But Bobby has no light task to de-
feat the field that will gather at
Brookline. His game will have TO
be at its peak to win, but Bobby has
resources this year that were not
there last year. and less the year
before. He has no light task. but
he should be favored over any other
one man.

Interest in National Singles.
Despite the international character
and the historic setting of the COM
petition for the Davis cup principal
interest centers in the national
championship Reasons for this are
that ii is almost a foregone copclu-
the TWO Bills-Tilden and Johnston
Norris Williams and Vincent Rich
ards will successfully defend the tro-
ply. while. on the other hand, il is
conceded that, barring accident or
illness. Tilden and Johnston will be
seen in battle for the singles
championship bowl at Philadelphia
on the final day of the national
tournament Williams also has two
legs on the bowl. but is not consid-
cred to be in the running this year
with Little Bill and Big Bill.
None of the invading players-Aus-
tralian, French nor Spanish-has
shown enough this year to give them
a chance for the Davis cup trophy or
to score in the national singles. All
of the French and Australian rack
eters fell prey to Americans at Sea :
bright and as the antipodeans scored
at Wimbledon where the French and
Spanish international netmen fell by
the wayside. only one conclusion can
be reached.
Richards Choice Approved.
Selection of Vincent Richards as a
member of the United States Davis
cup team which has met with gem
e-al appreciation. has added interest
10 the competition. Richards. who
will not be twenty years old until
March 20, next. probably is the

who were On the team Of 1909, were
only nineteen years of age at th.
time the matches took place against
the antipodeans in December Of that
year, but each is declared to have

Richards has another distinction In
that he is the most youthful player

Has Made Grent Record.
Richards has been three times Ia
tional junior champion. outdoors and
indoors; pnce national senior indoor
titleholder: twice national doubles
champion with Tilden. indoors and
outdoors. and twice national boy
champion In 1910 ne had the unique
distinction OF holding at the same
time The national boys title and the
senior doubles champ onship.
While the United States Lawn Ten
mis- Association has not announced
which players will contest in the
singles and doubles of the Davis cup
matches. il is practically Certain that
Johnston and Tiiden will play th"
opening singles and the latter and
Richards will pair for the doubles.
Should America win the first three
contests. then ii would seem logical
and likely that Richards and VIII
liams would be nominated for the
final two single clashes.
Hns Reached Climax Here.
Tennis locally also has reached its
climax. Dumbarron Club has won
