LOS ANGELES, Nov. 15.--Rumors

marry McNealy the Casino profess
sional, who has been experimenting
the work of alteration in connection
with the tennis courts, also has been
active in speeding up tho work Of re-
constructing two Of the clubs squash
courts. In order to bring these courts
up to regulation dimensions it was nee
essary to rip out two steel supporting
columns and substitute two ten~ton
steel girders. A complete new lighting
nystem was likewise installed and the
entire flooring and walls replaced with
new material. The courts are now said
to be the equal of any in the country.
The squash players Of the Casino and
the Montclair Athletic Club, who played
the first matches on the reconstructed
courts last week, expressed themselves
as delighted with the improvements.
The ladies have not been forgotten
by the Heights. Casino house improve
ment committee, for partitions have
been ripped out on the second floor
landing and small ballroom installed,
with a splendidly built dance foor.
Hereafter, between sets Of tennis

Every time I have occasion to pass
che magnificent indoor tennis court
building owned, believe, by George
ward, between Forest Hills and Long
Island City, wonder why the owner
does not And some more practical use
for the place than is now the case. |
have never been inside this brick and
granite building, but i have been told
by those who have seen the interior
that Mr.. Gould has the finest indoor
court in the world, together with suit
able dressing rooms, shower baths, ETC.,
and that no other indoor tennis club
in existence can compare In luxury
with this building.
The pity of IL is that this magnificent
indoor court is practically never used,
from years end to years end. There
it stands, idle, apparently, and doomed
TO continue thus indefinitely. Why
could it not be arranged for some in
door tennis club TO lease the building
at a nominal rental from MIR. Gould and
there stage tournaments or exhibition
matches between the greatest players
In the country Surely this would be
infinitely better than the present state
Of affairs.
This Is TO be an active season on the
indoor courts. starting with the exhibi-
tiou matches to be played at the
Heights Casino next Tuesday after
noon, and thereafter there win be some
tournament activity almost every week,
with the national Indoor championship
and the mems national title tourney
coming in March. After that, brief
swing through the South, and then for
"the great. wide, open places" on our
own outdoor courts!

take Clusters command, even running
on foot after their horses had given
out; and but for the vigilance Of the
Indians they would have succeeded.
and their names would now be ON

Is headed with the name of George

THAT these two men came from
