Tennis followers are likely to wit
ness some clever court work by
D'Neil in the intercity matches. If his
performance of yesterday can be
taken as an example. Only in one
set did ONeil have to extend himself.
In the third. Thurtell uncorked
squirt of brilliant net play that
downed O'Neil, to 3. Several long
rallies enlivened the play. O'NeiPs
uncanny ability to return terrific
drives played a large factor in his
triumph.

The British women have the high
est respect for the prowess Of their
American opponents and realize full
we'll that the handicap now rests
against them. They speak most en-
Enthusiastically of the West Side turf
and were amazed when they first saw
the beautiful concrete stadium that
has been built by the West side Club,
hailing IL not only as the finest struc-
ture Of its sort in the world, but an
enduring symbol Of the significance
that lawn tennis has attained in the
world of sport.
All OF them have played against
Suzanne Lenglen and they have 10
hesitation in pronouncing her TO be
the greatest woman player in the
world. If she should come TO this
country and take sufficient time TO
adapt herself to our climatic condi-
tions they believe she would prove as
indomitable here as abroad
They say that France Is advancing
by leaps and bounds in tennis and
that only the inability OF such stars
as Borotora and Lacoste to join the
French Davis cup team will prevent
the general public here from realiz-
ing that from now on the Gallo ma
ton is one that will have to be reck-
oned with in international tennis.
By the way. there is a feeling
among the foreign players that the
British doubles team, Dean and Craw-
ford, which will participate in the
national doubles here, will make a
strong bid to beat any doubles team
that we have which includes Will
Wiener, Richards and Hunter. Griffin
and Johnston and the Kinsey broth
ers.

In starting the stroke the body
lies extended on the right side-for
instance, the right arm forward, the
left arm held alongside the left hip.
The right arm starts a downward
sweep, ending the pull at the right
thigh. While the right arm is re-
covering, the left is carried forward
under the water to the extended posi-
ton. AS the right arm is relaxed,
elbow bent and hand shot forward
again below the surface, the left
arm sweeps in wide semi-circle
just below the surface, palm turned
to the rear. The left arm stroke
ends near the thigh and the body
glides for a moment in extended
position before the next stroke is
started. The left arm does the most
work, the right arm being chiefly a
balancer.
