+ IS TO PLAY IN EUROPE

CONCORD, Mass, April 1.-THE
announcement that william Nj. John
ston Of San Francisco was going
abroad this spring, communicated TO
William L. Tilden, I'd. of Philadelphia
here today, met the response that he
would like to go along. too.
But I'm all tied up with pledges
to play in important tournaments
with Sandy Wiener and ] doubt very
much II I make the trip he added.
Tilden expressed himself as de
lighted that Bill Johnston is going"
When Johnston played in England
before he was not at his best, the
champion remarked.
All AMERICA wants England to see
him at his best, and with the world
championship in singles to be de-
cided for the last time at Wimble-
don this year. 1t is fitting that our
best should be there"
Tilden said he and Johnston had
discussed plan of going to Europe
together next season and that Vim
cent Richards. national indoor cham
pion, and young Wiener also were
considering joining the invasion. All
his plans this year had been made
with visit to England next year in
mind, he said. adding lit is a ques-
ton that will take some timel to
answer, whether it can rearranged
now. In any case ! shall not leave
Sandy in the lurch. If he can't go
across. I shall not, and even though
he can we may not be able to ad-
just other matters"

ance indicates that his family orig
inally breathed the salty airs OF the
Scandinavian peninsula, but that was
very long ago, and johnson" claims
to be American on both sides for
many generations back.
The house in Des Moines in which
he was born is the same one in which
his father first saw the light of day,
and his mother is of old Missouri
stock. He is in the full bloom of man
hood, is more than six feet tall and
fights at about 1913 pounds He has
been in the ring as an amateur and
professional less than three years.
He does not bear a mark of his
trade, which would indicate a nat
urally good defense, while his hands.
despite his list of knockouts are in
perfect condition. He himself feels
the need of experience in real fights,
and SO does his pleasant spoken man
ager, Charley Cook. That was the
reason he signed to meet Fulton.
about which match SO much fuss has
been made. The financial side of that
battle was not the compelling motive
in making it. Johnson and his man
ager see big money ahead, and all
their plans have been laid with ref

Out in Virginia Toomey and Flynn are
finishing up their work of recondition-
ing and rearranging the course OF
the Washington Golf and Country
Club at cost of nearly $4,000. Part
of this work was done last year and
the course will probably be ready
for play in it's entirety by July All
the greens have been built, and all
that remains to be done is the finish
ing up of sodding the tees. filling and
sodding bunkers. and conditioning

Burning Tree, the ideal course
out near the Congressional Club, be-
tween Cabin John and Bethesda, Md.

ready for play by early summer. This
course, 1T is predicted, Immediately
will take rank as one of the hnest
eighteen hole links in the country.
Chevy Chase Club has finished the
changes in its layout and new greens
and tees have been built. However,
some conditioning work remains to
be done before the members will be
allowed to play on the new greens.
At Bannockhurn the construction
work, involving even new holes, is
completed and the fairways and
greens will be conditioned for use
as early as possible. This course
should be in good shape by mid
summer.

He proceeded to give bit of war
rant to these views by knocking out
Bob Martin of the A. E. r. Then
he was matched to meet Bill Bren-
nan, and it was generally agreed that
if he got by Knockout Bill he would
be entitled to consideration as the
possible heavyweight title holder of
the future. Well. he won the de-
cision over Bill and at once became
