BIG FUSS STARTS
OVER WITHDRAWAL
Of ENGLISH STARS
London Papers Moan Because
No Players to Compete
for Tennis Cup.

London, July 2O.-(By The 'Asso-
ciated Press:)-The British Lawn
Tennis associations decision to with
draw from competition for the Davis
cup, announced Monday, has created
a sensation among tennis devotees.
Regret over this action is universal,
but while this attitude in some cases
is based on sharp disagreement with
the associations action, it takes from
elsewhere in deploring Great Britain's
present lack of enough expert players
to make a team without two outstand-
ing men-Major A. r. P. Kingscote
and Randolph Lycett, who it, was said,
would be unable to make the trip to
America if they should have won the
preliminary term against Spain.
The Daily Telegraph's tennis ex-
pert has this to say:
This rather inglorious end to Great
Britain's Davis cup campaign of 1872
reveals a serious executive blunder
somewhere. Great Britain ought not
to have issued a challenge and played
the first round if further pursuit Of
that challenge depended upon the bust
ness affairs of two men. When coun-
tries like Czecho-Slovakia and Italy

IIODdi dTeId-tdu HcLu iVdLiS dciOoO.
II is a thousand pitches that the oldest
lawn tennis country will withdraw sud
denly.
"Kingscote and Lycett could not
90 to America, three or four other
PLAYERS could have been found. The
Jobs might have been as hopeless in
prospect as that of Italy or Czecbo-
Slovakia. but il would at least have
been undertaken with courage and
camaraderie.'
Sporting Life says:
British tennis is badly deficient in
PLAYERS of really first class ability.
Kingscote and Lycett are the only two
men who would have had any real
chance against the United States.
There is evidently a need for some
organized scheme to encourage and
develop Youthful talent

PEEvED,
BUT ADMITS NILE.
LENCLENS SUPREME
Defeated Woman Champion Is
Petulant When
interviewed.

New York, July 2O.-Unconvinced
that she is not a better tennis player
than Mile. Lenglen, who defeated her
recently at Wimbledon, Mrs. Molla NAL
Tory, American champion, came home
Thursday, vowing that she will go back
to England mex year, "If | am alive"
in the hope of again meeting the French
star. Mrs. Mallory admitted she was
in a temper when newspaper men
questioned her as the ship came up the
bay. She at first declined to make a
statement, declaring she had been
%misquoted so often / am afraid to open
my mouth. Finally she authorized
the quotation:
She denied everything that has been
published about the banter reported to
have been exchanged between herself
and Mile. Lenglen after the match, de-
nouncing these reports as lies, lies,
lies. THE newspapers are the vilest
and the dirtiest things in America, and
if they don't let me alone they will
drive me out of tennis and back to
Norway she exclaimed. AT the So
licitation of Dean Mathey. American
player who accompanied her, she with
drew her characterization of the Am
erican press. Mrs. Mallory said she
could be quoted as saying that Mile.
Lenglen is the most marvellous woman
tennis player in the world. Clasping
her hands in %prayerful attitude, she
said, II swear it on the Bible. Is
that what you want me TO say!'
Niathey pleaded with the interviewers
TO remember that Mrs. Mallory is a
woman and hot-tempered'.
Asked what she wanted to tell the
public concerning her defeat, Mrs. NAL
lory frowned and said:
Il have nothing to say. What can
I say? / did not ask to meet her
again. I didn't say anything about not
being up to my real form. What is to
be said? We did o quarrel. Moth
ing was said over the net. After the
game. ! just congratulated her. OF
course, | want to play her again. I was
beaten. and that's all there was to it."
