NEW YORK, May 10.-(Special) The drun-fire of many gifted type writers will begin to rake the entrench- ments of the United States Lawn Ten his association this week as the forces behind William T. Tilden open a prop aganda offensive to compel the aban- donment of the so-called player-writer rule. .S sas.
 Many well known. players, not for getting that anyone might become lit erary celebrity overnight by winning a national championship, have joined Tilden and have taken the oath to fight to the last word under the battle flag of the insurrection, which bears the symbolic device of split infinitive gasping on a sheet of copy paper.
 A state document from the camp of the insurrectos Saturday night an nouneed that IS of the %. ranking tournament players had determined to Oppose the ,player-writer rules Among them are Sam Hardy, former captain of the Davis cup Steam and hIWseif aa' devoted literary man, being editor of Official Tennis Guide; Francis Il. Hun ter, Frank Anderson, Howard Voshel and Fred Anderson.
 Next week, the West Side Tennis club of Forest, Hills, one of the strong est political subdivisions of the nation al group, will hold solemn meeting at which the impetuous younger ele- ment will try to prevail against the counsel of the elder statesmen who committed the club to policy of sup porting the rule, The full member- ship was not specifically consulted re- garding the rule before the national Tennis congress during the winter at, which the clubs vote was cast against literature. Now the insurgents want the club to reconsider this vote. The board of governors last week reaffnm- ed its adherence to the rule.
 Vincent Richards joined Tilden's army some time ago and was made a brigadier general of the insurrectOs. But after, being placed in command of high powered typewriter Vincent was captured by Colonel Thompson of the Olympic committee who attacked him with clouds of persuasive conver- station few days ago.
 Orders have been issued regarding the standard equipment of the insur-' recto forces. Each man is to carry one portable typewriter, one bale of copy paper, one dictionary, one note book, one eraser, one glue pot, one pair of shears and one fountain pen for sign ing contracts with syndicates.

|ELBERFELD AND PEBS
 ARE WITH US TO-DAY
FanssWill Get Chance To See Rookie Sensation;
 Barons Will Likely Use. Sep Good

Those fsvho like their baseball with q stick ifi it are in for a treat at Redwood beginning today aud .;ontln- uing Tue4day and Wednesday. When sthe. man fn the blue serge suis steps lin front 0f~the press box an1 takes the pleasure ,tof announcing the batteries for todaEfs game it will mean that we have with us today, for better or worse tf our fortunes, the renowned Kid Ellfrfeld and the hootin' clcEtin' PebbleS3from Ark-an-saw.
 ,. Everybody knows tine Kid. He's the up and ready fight for my rights cham pion ofS the circuit. He's one of the best drawing cards in the game today and that's. why the coming of the Travellers means so much to those who like the game and it's added thrills when 1t doesn't cost any more than on any other days. The Kid and his team started right smart this year, but they haven't been getting the breaks re- gently. ~
 They onthit Mobile the other day but failed to knock the Bears hits down. They did win one nice game in the Gulf City. the afternoon Richburg, rookie twirler, was master of the sit- uation,s. This baby might be seen to advantage here. It's dollars to dough- nuts that he takes the hill here today and our esteemed Sep Good will have a chance to show us further how good he can be against such competition. Robinson will start in one of the games. The Chicks treated him mean Sunday, and he will be feeling like beating sthe Barons when lie starts either Tuesday or more probably We'd nesdays The Reuben has a way of smacking the locals. But, in Birming- hams favor, the Barons are. going along at fast clip. They haven't won as many games from Chattanooga as Memphis has, which is eight, but that IS because. they haven't played as many, one was a tie and Birmingham did lose oto the LOokouts, that time Johnny Bates hit a homer.
 The Pebbles have won three from Memphis, something that no other team has done by two games. They took a trio from the Lookouts, two from Nashville and one from Mobile. Won nine and lost twelve. They were de- feated four times by Nashville, thrice by Memphis, twice by Mobile and Chat tanooga and lost one to New Orleans.
 The fBarons have a better record They have won thirteen games and lost as many. ee The Stewards have won one from Atlanta, four from New Orleans. two from Mobile, one from tfe Vols and fivefrom Chattanooga. They have lost four to Atlanta, three to New Or leans, five to Mobile, two to Nash vile and one to Chattanooga. The teams look about eventIy matched on paper-even enough to promise an in- teresting contest each day of the se- ries.
 Joe Guyon is right fielding for the Pebbles aud it will be worth the price of admission to see Joseph in a Trar.s

 Play France Next Sunday
 OLYMPIC STADIUM, COLOMBES, France, May 11.-{By the Associated Press. )-The American rugby football team today won the right to meet France in the. final match of the Olym- pic competition next Sunday by defeat ing. the Rumanian team, 37 to o.
 The score might as well have been 100 to o had the Americans wanted to pile up a large number of points. They were content. however, simply to win and plainly held back against the lit- tie fellows from King 'Ferdinands do- main. tt& e.
 In the second period the Americans carried out snappy combination work and tricky passes instead of crushing through the lighter Rumanian line, as they did in the first period in order to clinch the game at the. start,
 The Americans were superior in ev- cry department to the 1sumanians. All though heavier men, they were faster than the .Balkanites. they. were bet ter in tackling. passing and running through the field. Their goal line, never once was threatened: the Ru- manians never were even within kick ing distance of the American goal posts.

(By Leased Wire to Tho Age-Heraid) PARIS, May 11.-While hostile crowd of 5000 booed and jeered them from the. first whistle, the American Olympic rugby team beat Rumania by a score of 37 to 0 in their first game in the Olympic matches at the Colombes stadium Sunday.
 The crowd had been stirred up by abusive newspaper attacks on the sports naanship of Americans, and was out to boot the Yankee players to defeat. No roughness developed in the game, how ever, and French sport writers who were present agreed that the Americans play ed clean, though hard, game.
 Abuse Is Deplorcd t
 The president of the football associa- ton declared that the Americans play : ed splendidly, and that the abuse of the crowd was deplorable and unjusti- fled. In the second half the crowd ceased its obviously unwarranted criti- cism. -...
 Despite the fact that the Americans were playing without five of their stars, they overwhelmed their opponents and excelled them in all phases of the game. The Rumanians were lighter, and lack ed knowledge of the game, and the Yam kees kept the ball without their goal ever being threatened. ...-..
 Hylan was the outstanding star, mak- ing long brilliant runs and doing fine work in lodging and passing. Patrick was also, fast and clever, and Clark and Maneli played a strong game. Turkig- ton was put out of the game in the mid de of the second half for roughness, and soon afterwards Bentia of Rumania

 Johnny Dobs will attempt to keep his Chickasaws on their present stride for the remainder of. the week, when they face a crucial test on the. road. They return home next Sunday for 15-game stay, and it deyolxes on Atlanta and Birmingham to check them before they get the advantage of such a long home stay.

 Pebbles Holding Up
