Davis CupRivals of 1900

Does the English sportsman retain

American rival? Are men who we're
good enough to play Davis Cup matches

on the tennis court? Does the Ameri-
can temperament in sport lead our ath-
letes to burn out" quickly. or can
they stand the pace we'll enough to
compete on fairly even terms with their

These and other questions OF simi-
lar sort may be answered this summer.

"Too much is made, think, OF the

for long. Where is McLoughlin's

this connection. how the team Of
Americans, A. ". Gore, T.. D. Black

States would deny Mr.. Barrett the right
to his opinion" said Julian S. Myrick
president of the United States Lawn
Tennis Association, in commenting
upon this remark, "hut we are rathe,
keen about the ability of some of oul
old timers, too. The tennis public is
quite aware Of the fact that Dwight
Davis and Holcombe Ward are playing
fine tennis to-day plenty good enough
to beat lots Of the youngsters who had
not been born when that Davis Cup
team Of 1900 was winning the first
match in the contest that has since be-
come one of the greatest events in in
ternational sport.
"What happened in 1900 may be
almost forgotten story to some but
there are plenty OF US who remember
the ability of that team of Davis.
Ward and Whitman. When I read
Mr.. Barrett's opinion, it seemed as
though it is a challenge that ought
not to be ignored There has been al
together too much talk to the effect
that tennis can be played only by
youngsters. AS was pointed out in
the reports AT the associations re-
cent annual meeting much of the
strength of organized tennis comes
from men who are generally regarded
as middle-aeed. There is also an
opinion that our athletes don't last
as long as do the men in England.
We would like to have that question
settled also
II am now in correspondence with
the men Mr.. Barrett named and if it
is possible for them to arrange their
business affairs it is likely that they
will take Mr.. Barrett at his word and
try to schedule such match as he
suggests. Personally, ] hope very
much that it can be done"

dispute that it is the best. He will

it is super-excelient; but that it is

the writer's way of thinking, is better
than st. Louis's. with the Yankees
