WIGHTMAN EXPLAINS
PLAYER-SCRIBE RULE

NEW YORK, June 5. - Cardinal
features of the player-writer inter-
pretation of the amateur rule as
adopted by the United States Lawn
Tennis Association in February have
been outlined in statement by
George w. Wightman. president of
the organization.
The Interpretation deprived of
amateur standing any amateur player
who continued to play in many tour
naments while being paid thousa nds
of dollars yearly for writing on ten
mis- subjects, because, Wightman said,
such player was paid in part for
his name and fame and in sums far
in excess of what his services as a
writer were worth.
He pointed to selling arguments
of syndicates, which, he said, empha-
sized the circulation value to news
papers which bought their service,
of the contemporary fame of the
player writer's.
"This amount paid to player
writer in excess of his worth merely
as writer is payment for his per-
formances on the court and con-
tingent upon his playing in many
tournaments, winning many titles and
keeping his name prominently before
the public" wightman said.
The condition which PERMITTED
players to make a living out of the
game tended to the development of
an invincibie tournament group whose
income depended upon their winning
and against whom players competing
opposed, the president added. Eradi-
cation of such a condition was nee
essary if tennis were to continue as
an amateur game, he concluded

The Naval Academy has signified
its willingness to meet in any of the
sports in which both now engage, and
soccer. boxing, wrestling, swimming
and gymnastics may be added.
Like One-Year Rule.
The Improvement of the Naval
Academy in its contests with the
Military Academy is interesting and
significant, in view of the fact that
it is the first year during which the
one-year residence rule has been in
effect at Annapolis. Many who
feared that the adoption of the rule
would put the Naval Academy at "A
disadvantage now believe that it has
much to do with it's success. as
new members of the new class were
allowed to try for the varsity
Heretofore the Naval Academy had

average age at the Military Academy.
the maximum for admission being
two years higher there. Since mem
berS of the entering class cannot now
take part in varsity athletics. the
number available for the different
teams is about the same at both in
stitutions, while West Point still has
the advantage in the matter of age
and experience.
West Point receives more athletes,
particularly foot ball players, who
have been developed and often made
big regulations at other colleges. AS
it has not adopted the one-year rule.
IT uses these athletes the first year.
While at first many naval people
were inclined to. believe that this
gave the Army a great advantage, the
prevailing opinion now is that, in the
long run. the MidShipmen will do bet
ter by using such green material as
presents itself and molding it into
members Of the teams in the different
sports.
Stars Sometimes Retard.
With the maximum age for admis-
sion at the Naval Academy fixed AT
nineteen, it is not likely to get stu
dents who have gone higher in ath-
leticS than high or preparatory school
teams, and it is believed that bette
results will be obtained where the
higher phases of the sports are learn
cd AT one institution. There is reasou
to believe that the presence of noted
college players has in some cases
tended to produce lack of harmony
and coordination.
The comparative showing of the
Naval and Military Academy teams in
the sports in which they have met is
OF much interest. Records as to fenc-
ing are lacking, but it is believed that
the series is about even. In the total
meetings Of Army and Navy teams
the Army heads, due largely to the big
margin of base ball games in its
favor.
