Evening star., 1922-04-09

the DuHlDdftOn OluD, VIII open on ii
have been staged by one organizat
One of Washington's biggest events
this season will be the Hotchkiss cup
matches. in which teams from Nor
folk, Richmond, Baltimore and this
city will compete. Chevy Chase and
Columbia will join hands in staging
the competition on June 8 and 10.
Each will hold one of the semi finals
and the club at which the Washing
ton team does not appear on the
opening day will put on the final.
This will be decided by draw
Norfolk Country Club will hold the
middle Atlantic championship doubles,
putting on the event in connection
| in which play will start May %. The
doubles will be given the right of
way. Several Washington pairs doubt
less will take part.
Washington will get its first taste
of real tournament tennis when
dozen or more national stars will
display their proweSs in the Chevy
Chase Club invitation doubles on May
II. IL and 13. This tourney doubtless
will afford the best tennis of the
season here.
In addition to the scheduling the
local Journeys earlier than usual
this year. the Washington Tennis AS
sociation has fallen into line by re-
ton on June II. Instead of each of
, three clubs meeting the other thrice.
as has been the case in past seasons.
they will clash only twice this year,
play starting Saturday.
Conflicts Are Avoided.
The schedule. which was arranged
by Arthur HELEN and Col. Wait'John
son, was SO drafted as to not con-
flict with the important Journeys here
and in the middle Atlantic section

April 15-Columbfa at Chevy
April z-cbevy Chase at Dunn
April :s-Dumbarton at CoIum-

the Suburban and Departmental
leagues meet for the right to play
Baitirnore's best. will be held until IN

Nationally. the usual number of
