A NEW and ultra-sensational
~ tennis phenomenon is to
make an appearance on the
American court during the COM
ing season-a phenom who will
probably become one of the great
est champions the gama has ever
seen, according to William Tilden
H.. the mighty king OF the rae
quet, who holds the worlds cham
pionship himself.
Furthermore. this new phenom Is
now only a boy, fourteen years old.
and during the season that is APP
preaching. he will play for one ma
tional championship at least, as "A
partner of Tilden.
Tiiden is planning the campaign
in which this sensational youugster
is TO he brought out in his court
debut.
The first intimation of this came
directly from Tilden himself who
told the story. The lad in question
Is Alexander l.. Weiner, member
OF the 1925 class at Germantown
Academy in Philadelphia. He prac-
t!cally never handled a tennis rae.
quet until last year, when he re-
ceived instructions in tennis from
the Yale University professional,
whom he met during summer va.
alton in New England.
The First Chapter.
Liking the game the youngster Sc
cured a racquet from his father and
practiced the shots he had been
shown against cement wall and on
the courts at his school. Nothing of
a serious nature entered his mind.
1t was merely a boys effort at play.
That was the first chapter Of the
story.
Then his father. who was formerly
quite an athlete and also an officer
in the navy, began adding to his
sons instructions. Still little atten-
ton was paid to the lads ability.
Put new element entered.
During the present winter Tilden
has been directing the production OF
some amateur dramatics at the Ger
mantown Academy, and Alexander
Weiner took an active part in the
sketches. Naturally the boys under
Tilden's direction put tennis above
baseball during their conversations
with the net monarch, and Weincr
was one OF those who had talked
most intelligently.
II think ! will make you my part.
ner in doubles during the coming
season." Tilden said in joking fash
ion to Weiner one afternoon.
suits me fine Mr.. Tilden," chirped
the boy, and Tilden took him up,
still in bantering fashion.
Winds Up Seriously.
II mean it," Tilden went on, i'm
pressed by the serious way the boy
took it all.
Two days later Tilden was work
ing out on the indoor courts ut the
academy when Weiner appeared
with racquet, and the champion
of the world admits he was dumb.
founded by the smashing ability OF
the youngster.
He Immediately took the boy IN.
der his wing and began putting him
through course OF the most rigor-
Gus training, subjecting him 10 tue
hardest shots known to the game.
This is what Tilden has TO say
about him:
1T believe he is the greatest hand
Ter of a racquet In the history Of
the game. In all probability he will
far surpass the records OF Vincent
Richards. the national Junior cham.
pion. who holds nine titles.

LABOR IS NOT A COMMODITY

The Democracy OF Nevada has fol
lowed the traditionally friendly policy
Of the party III regard to labor.
1t maintains that labor is human
thing; and that the flesh ard bones
OF the human race were not intended
by nature to be considered as an ar
ticy of commerce 1t holds that
the government should not only pro-
tcct the rights and adjust the
wrongs OF labor but should recognize
the fact that those who work, being
the great majority, are themselves
the government,
All people are interested in the just
treatment OF labor. Ninety per cen.
of us work. 1t is only by work that
the race survives Therefore it is
necessary to each person, as a part Of
the race, that labor as a whole shall be
hunsnely treated.
In New da, as elsewhere. all labor
laws are Democratic products. The
eight-hour laws, the worknans com
pcnsation system of insurance. the full
crew train law, the mine inspection
and mine safety requirement acts.
the semi-monthly payday statute
and the mothers and teachers pen
sion systems were prepared and in
troduced by Democratic legislators.

congratulate you upon the results of
your lecture tour. which was a pro-
nounced success from every point Of
view.
The thousands of Americans who
crowded our largest halls bore elo-
GUent testimony to the esteem in
which you are held as an exponent OF
spiritualism. and the satisfaction they
expressed as they left the halls fur
nished concrete proof of your effect
iveness In presenting your theme.
Your voice reached distinctly to all
parts of the spacious auditoriums, your
platform presence was magnetic and
your delivery forceful and convincing.
In speaking seven times on the
same subject in the largest halls in
Greater New York within the BRIEF

broke call lecture records, and even
eclipsed records of .he greatest living
