training which has proved Just as effective in
preparing the present generation for lawn
tennis, so that they stand on an equal footing
with players from thirteen other nations who
are to decide which shall meet the American
team for the Davis Cup this year. Let Shin
izu explain:
"Aenjltsu is played with bamboo swords,
really nothing more than light sticks four or
five feet in length. Each player is protected
about the head and body by pads stifTened
with bamboo and it is the aim of each. as in
fencing, to strike his opponent at vital points.
t or instance. there are six points by which
scores are made-frst, by blow over the
head; second, by one at the throat; third, by
one on the opponents left hand or arm: fourth.
on the left side of the body; fifth, on the right
hahd or arm; and, sixth, on the right side of
the opponents abdomen. These strokes are
more easily illustrated by motions than de-
scflped III words and they will be understood
by all tennis players if they are translated
into tennis terms
ne frSt movement is identical with the
overland smash of tennis with the arm, ont
stretched above the head The second is seen
IN the twisting service produced by wrist
Aioeioi' cildi dcletiStlc OF many Japanese piay-
ers The blows at the opponents arms are
made by the same motion as is used in the
forehand and backhand volley, the action be-
ing partly limited to wrist movement. Like
wise, the blows at the opponents body ara
made IN the same manner as the forehand
and backhand strokes, sweeping motions. with
the arms in full play.
Japanese fencers become so skillful at ken-
J1tsu that they are able to Judge the flight of
OBJECTS with such accuracy that with a sword
tney can sever an arrow shot at them and de-
nect 1t from its course. With pocket knives
or similar weapons they can kill small birds in
hight. This skill, of course, is of great assist
aice to the Japanese tennis player in Judging
the speed of a tennis bali in flight and in
striking it with just the amount of force
needed to send it where desired
Since the Samurai, the upper classes have
played this game for centuries. it is not sur
prising, therefore, that Japanese adopted
lawn tennis with not little skill and ability.
kumagae's father was champion fencer and
ichlya was one of the leading exponents of
kenJltsu so that his ability in American tour
nan1ent play was not SO remarkable as his ver-
satlllty IN changing from light uncovered

Apparently the Major leads such a hectic life
that he never has time to dine. He Just skips

rubber balls to which he was accustomed in
Japan, to regulation tennis balls and in famil-
larlzlng himself with playing on grass instead
OF on clay or dirt courts. In fact, it would
not be surprising to see japanese make real
progress in tennis now that national as
sociation has been formed, regulation balls
have been adopted and plans arranged for
regular tournaments in which leading players
of the country will meet one another"
Sh1mlzu's statement is plausible explana-
ton of what has been regarded by American
tennis followers as one of the most remarkable
achievements in the annals of the sport--the
rise of two unknown players from the Orient
to tie foremost rank in half dozen years
kumagae entered tournament play in this
country after little or no experience with reg
uiation tennis balls on grass courts, and at the
end of the season (1916) was ranked No, in
the Lawn Tennis Associations American list
10 the uninitiated, it may be explained that to
break into the first ten" after years of siren
uous competition IS mean achievement
No ranking was made in 1917, but in 1918
kumagae held seventh position. The following
year he advanced to No. 3. while in 1920 he
dropped back to fourth position. Last wear
ne was placed seventh
Shimizu was virtually unknown before he
entered the worlds championships at Wi1nble-
don in 1920. Here he established his reputa-
ton by winning his way to the finals, facing
William t. Tilden. Big BILL as all Ameri-
cans know, won from the plucky Japanese star
by his smashing net play and change of pace
and then dethroned Gerald L. Patterson, leader
of the Australasian Davis Cup team at pres
ent, In the challenge round.
Kumagae and Shmizu. aided by Seiichiro
kashio, another promising player, formed
Japan's first entry in international competi-
ton for the Davis Cup year ago, and their
record at Forest Hills in the challenge rouad
IS too fresh in the minds of Americans to need
repetition. Suffice to say that the Nippon Club
of New York has recently donated the New
York Cup to the japanese Tennis Association
for annual competition in Japan in con1mem-
Grafton of the accomplishments Of these three
players.

and other cities of India before invading Eng

Oh, those old cookbooks, Whole civiliza-

There follow directions which might bring

the mead which used to flow in gold-rinlmed

There are recipes for other enticing drinks,
however, that even Mr. Volstead could not
fail to approve. For instance: "A Pretty

Yes, that was all. If ne won he won; if

For in the modest young Frenchman who

ing world.
just one year ago this boy who to-day holds
the tennis championship of his country, as
we'll as two world championships, was un-

the time he was recognized merely as a fine
all around athlete, fire football player,
boxer and oarsman, and young man who
was about to enter the eighteen months sery-
ice with the colors, which the law requires
of all Frenchmen of his age. To-day he is the
undisputed champion of France, holder of the
worlds championship on covered courts, and
the worlds championship on hard courts,
which title he won last spring at Brussels
from the best players in Europe. And be-
sides, he is the Youngest tennis champion in

Prepared Them for the Game

reason that the same muscles are brought
into play and the strokes are similar in both
games. The skill acquired in kenjitsu would
permit the Japanese player to strike the ball
with great accuracy and precision. Before
taking up Shinlizus explanation it may be
well TO glance at few facts and figures
1t seems reasonable to believe that there is
something more than mere opinion behind his
statement, for in the face Of the physical
handicap Of stature Kunagae and Shnnizu
have attained high ranking i'll the tennis
world. The latter was placed No. in A
Wallis Myers's authoritative international list
last year, behind only William T. Tilden,
William M. Johnston and Vincent Richards
while Kumagae ranked No. in the United
States Lawn Tennis Associations official
American list. 1t is safe to say, therefore
that the two japanese are among the first ten
players of the world.
They are slight and of about the same
height, scarcely more than five feet tall. What
they lack in height and reach must be coun-
teroalanced IN agility, accuracy and speed.
Kumagae is further handicapped by the fact
that he has TO wear eyeglasses at play and by
the fact that he is left-handed, necessitating
increased efficiency in backhand strokes.
Thus when it is taken into consideration
that players who have won their way to the
top--men like Mclaughlin, Tilden, Kingscote,
Dot
generally been tall and rangy and have had
great reach as well speed afoot, it must be
conceded that the two Japanese have made
almost phenomenal strides in a short time
with the odds against them.
Only in recent years has tennis been plaved
in Japan Yet while Europeans from the time
OF the feuaai kings were playing with ball
and racquet the japanese were engaged in

have been preparing for this game for a
thousand years. They ought to be proficient.
Although tennis is comparatively new in
Japan, schoolboys and young men for gen.
erations and generations have been perfecting
themselves in one or both of Japan's major

PRACTICE FOR GRID ELEVENS
Preliminary Preparation Essential for
Hardening Players for Important
Contests.

In regard to the suggested curtail-
ment of the football season. a foot
ball coach expressed the hope the
other day that the faculty will allot
the players at least time enough to
learn the signals.
As a matter Of fact, preparation for
football does not take up as much
time as college oarsmen have to put
In, and there has been no clamor
against rowing as against football.
Preliminary football practice Is es-
sential In hardening the players for
a wear and tear which come with the
start Of the season, and outside Of the

PUT HIMSELF OUT

Bob Fothergill figured in an
unusual play in the eighth inning
of a recent game between the
Tigers and Athletics. The De-
troit outfielder put himself out
and no one but the umpire
seemed to know how 1t was ac-
complished.
Fothergill, on third, and Bass
Ter, on first, started a double
steal. Galloway threw low to
Perkins at the plate and as the
catcher took the ball on the
bound, Fothergill dashed past
him and across the disc. Perkins
went in pursuit, knowing FOther-
gill had not touched the plate,
but the runner was waved out
before the ball was applied.

molly saw Fothergill brush Per
