INDOOR AND OUTDOOR
TENNIS VERY UNLIKE
BY LAWRENCE PERRY,

NEW YORK, February 14.-wateh-
ing William Tilden and other stars
of the tennis court perform in com
petitiSn on the floor of the Heights
Casino in Brooklyn, the spectator was
forcefully impressed with the difference
that exists between the indoor and
outdoor game.
Inasmuch as Tilden can defeat any
body on turf or dirt he has the abil-
ity as well to win under cover. So
far as he Is concerned points of de-
Walton as between the two sorts OF
game are not material-so far, at
least, as winning and losing are con-
cerned.
Just the same he IS not the great
player indoors that he is outdoors
This is to say that more than one of
the indoor stars can play him a
closer game under roof than ranking
outdoor stars can do under the open
sky.
Playing indoors, a serve such as
Tildeh can apply is absolutely not
returnable. OF course he delivers
non -returnable serves outdoors, but
the conditions that obtain upon a
wooden floor, on which the ball skids
before it fises, enable him to deliver
more serves of this sort indoors than
out, many more.
anu even StcHS IaE less GER
tain of his footing, plays with less
abandon in court covering, when he
is on a board floor than when run
ming upon clay or grass.
One important point that initiates
against the full enjoyment Of indoor
tennis whether by player or specta-
tor is the low visibility, so to speak.
The ball speedily partakes of the
color of the floor and the strain of
following 1t taxes the eyes-taxes
them painfully, indeed, when they
happen to be sensitive.
On dirt the ball similarly absorbs
the color tone of the court, but the
broad daylight renders 1t more easily
visible than under electric arc Tampa
with their supplementary illumination
contributed by q gray Winter day.
Tilden does not. appear to take the
indoor game very seriously. but none
theless this branch of the sport IL
growing by leaps and bounds and the
time may come when II will develop
certain science and character ali
its own-with champions peculiarly
adept therein.
