Suzanne Is Dodging Go
 With Ryan
Indications Are That Sen sational Suzy' Is Falling
 Back ..,

PARIS, Feb. 28.-Suzanne Lengien, the greatest woman tennis player in the world, has lodged a contest with Miss Elizabeth Ryan, the former Cali fornia girl, so many times during the Riviera tennis season that it appears to some experts as though sensational Suzy Is dipping at last and wants to conceal 1t. Miss Ryan and Mile. Lem glen are partners in the doubles and are close friends, but always in the past they have parted company long enough to face one another from op- posing sides of the net. And Suzanne was champion. This year. however. Miss Ryan has been playing better than ever and Mile. Lenglan has been hard-pressed several times by girls who would not have given her a close con- test in the past. They have had sev- eral appointments to meet in singles, but always Miss Ryan Is i'll or Mile. Lenslen has a headache.
 Suzanne has retired from competition until the efnational matches at Vim bledon, in which she hopes to crush Miss Helen Wills of California, and this retirement also Is regarded as sig nificant of a decline. Her demeAnor in the tournaments during the winter was hardly that of q confident, happy girl athlete. She has been touchy and grouchy and has permitted her temper to cause several unplsasant~ isonaentS in clashes with the judges or her op- ponents. Likewise. she has taken on considerable weight.
 Whatever may be the condition of Mile. Lenglen's forehand drive, her tongue Is still scoring aces in rather ill-tempered repartee.

NEW YORK, Feb. 2s.--Aeknewledge the greatest tennis player in the world, William T. Tilden, II, nevertheless. be- lieves he is far more effective as writer and intimates that he will court banishment from amateur status by continuing to write about tennis for pay. Tilden's latest word In the vo- luminous record comprising the wrangle over professionalism in tennis is given in an article in a magazine called American Lawn, Tennis.
 "A tennis player in India recently wrote Tilden. informing him that Til den's writings on the game had been helpful to him in learning tennis.
 Here Is player who really feels that my writings have helped him." Tilden says. If that is so, I, believe have done the game a real service, one of greater value than any injury which 1t may receive because few people object to a monetary return be- ing paid me for my writings. It gives me courage to so on writing, even though it may cost me my amateur standing. The whole sporting world has gone mad on legislation in the past year."

TEX TO TAKE
 ALONG PROOF

NEW YORK. Feb. 2S.--Tex Rickard will carry kit of records to Albany next Tuesday, place them before the ways and means committee and invite them to choose between his word and that of Tom O'Rourke, the former pro moter, who jared the entire boxing business by charging Rickard with various sorts of crookedness.
 Aickard tried to get hearing at the last meeting of the boxing commission here, but no attempt was made al that time to investigate the entire mat ter If Rickard Is able to convince the ways and means committee that O'Rourke's allegations are but the ex- precision of a poor losers grouch, the boxing business probably will be al- lowed to proceed without further moles- tation.
 Rickard has attributed O'Rourkes to these motives. If there seems to be good basis for ORourkc's charges, the ways and means commit tee may be expected to order a legis- lative investigation of the game.

Alabama Off To Tourney , At Atlanta
Auburn And Crimsons May Meet At s. 1. C. Cage Meet
 In Georgia

\ UNIVERSITY. Ala. Feb. 2S.--tSpe- cial.)-Eight players, Coach "Hustling Hank" Crisp and Manager Charles Bromberg-in other words, the Crimson cage outfit-left the Capstone Thurs day night, bound for Atlanta, where they play Ole Miss Friday afternoon in their initial game of the tournament.
 Meeting Ole Miss in the opener will force the Crimsons to show all their skill the first day. There's lots of folks who rate the Mississippi club far below the Crimsons, but such is not really the case. They have a good club, and must be watched.
 However, Alabama and Auburn are apt to meet in Atlanta. Think of that! If Alabama breezes through Ole Miss, as dope says she will, Auburn will have to upset the dope bucket to meet the Crinsons in their second game. Georgia Tech plays the Tiger club first, and has beaten them twice already this year. Reports from the village of the plains seem to indicate the Tigers are somewhat down, but not quite out. An Auburn Alabama game would be a good opportunity for the railways to make some money, for Crimson students would get to Atlanta in some fashion to see the game, and Auburnites would probably do likewise
 CapstOne Quiet
 The Capstone Is rather quiet with the departure of the Crimsons for the Cracker city. There's some interest being shown in inter-fraternity basket ball, but such interest is simply on the outside. To be frank, everyone is just waiting to. hear how that first game came out" If 'Bama gets over the first, she'll get over all of them and whats to keep them from getting over the first? There's ho telling what might happen, but no one at Alabama has even the faintest idea of Alabama being put out in the opening battle.
 The tournament will close the career of one Crimson star, the midget Elm melt McGauly from the Capital City. 'Bama forward. Last year, he cap- tained the club. And every year he has been getting just a little bit better, tn til now he is about at8thes height of his college career. He Is fast and of fighting quality and knows how to loop the oval with an accuracy that seldom misses.

 The students saw to}ft that the play CTS felt their backing, and. in turn, the players were ready to give their last ounce of energy toward winning the tournament championship for the Uni- versity of Alabama.

BRITAIN SENDS
 < DEBT TO, U. s.

NEW YORK, Feb. 2s.-(By Asso- ciated Press.)--Great Britain has chal- lenged America for a 1924 contest for the Walker cup, emblem of internation- al amateur golf team supremacy, and will send its best players to this coun- try for the matches which probably will be played early in September.
 Formal acceptance of this country's invitation was contained today in a cablegram received by Cornelius S. Lee, secretary of the United States Golf as- sociation, from Henry Cullen, secretary of the Royal and Ancient Golf club, the governing British links body.
 Because of expected difficulty in fi- nancing an American Invasion this year, Britain's challenge had been in doubt.
 No official word as to the personnel of the British team has been received.
 America has won both competitions held for the cup so far
