SMALL
By GERRY" Martin

The District tennis tourney for
Juniors Is not proving very popular
this year, since only seven girls
have signed for the singles and two
teams for the doubles. with the
entries closing tonight at 6 o'clock.
The defending champion. Florence
Seward, has not appeared and may
not be in the running this year.
Katherine Berrall, runner.up last
year, is not in town and, therefore,
will not enter. Clara AldeFton and
Virginia Olmstead, title holders in
the doubles, are back to collect
some more laurels, and will have
little opposition in doing so, unless
the entry list il heightened today.
In the singles, the outstanding
racquet wielders are Clara Alderton
and Mary Ellen Totten. These girls
are both crack athletes, who wear
the colors Of the Princess A. c. on
the basketball floor. II these girls
meet, there is sure to be close
match.
Dorothy Cook, Agatha Varela,
Virginia Hardesty, Sue Crump and
Helen Petrie are the remaining as
piring ones. In the doubles, the
only duet which challenges the
champions is the Helen Chaffe-
Grace MoomaW couple.
Many are apparently holding
back, not understanding the age
limit. Since this tourney will be
run off under the Lawn Tennis
Association, we quote their rule re-
garding junior tennis tourney for
girls. "These championships are
open to girls who have not reached
their eighteenth birthday before
January 1 in the year of competi-
ton" In other words, II you have
reached the ripe old age Of Is since
the day you made and broke your
New Year resolutions, and if you
play tennis. phone Hoover Brothers,
6OS Fourteenth ST., at Main PASS.
and enter.
All ma tches will be played on the
Henry Park courts, every day next
week, from 9:45 to 4:45 o'clock. The
draw will be made this evening at
6, SO pep 1T up and get those
entries in!

and as proof Of the promoters
Oft-repeated claim that he had

event for the last four days;

ly postponing his scheduled
Fink-Ruth bout since Tuesday.
Now he has folded his arms
and decided to forget about
the whole thing until next
Tuesday night. Dick Tenny-

abated long enough since for
him to even chalk-off the rum
ming lanes.
Anyone wishing to join the
Moaning Society may make ap-
plication in person or in writ
ing to either of the Messrs.
Griffith, Miller or Tennyson.

The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1926-08-21

President John Heydler. in
clearing the names of Max Carey,
Carson Bigbee and Babe Adams,
in the Pittsburgh dissension
hearing, did what the head Of
any household might do under
similar circumstances-close the
matter as quickly and quietly as
possible and tell the recalcitrants
to ego and sin no more"
If you had a scandal in your
household, you wouldn't want
the whole, street to know it
you'd stamp it down as quickly
as possible.
Incidentally, Mr.. Heydler is
sued beautiful statement
which means nothing whatever
if YOU can look at the thing
through the players bifocals.
We can't see that the mere
clearing of their names" helps
their baseball status or permits
them to ply their trade in the
same old-fashioned way. 1t
seems to US they either violated
some baseball ethics and should
be branded as meters Of dissen-
sion or they should be declared
innocent and reinstated, even II
only for a day, to carry out the
sincerity of Heydler's clearing
of their names.
If Heydler hasn't the author
ity. to do this, then the Pitts
burgh ownership should be gra-
cious enough to do it of their
own volition.
We do not believe the three
ball players did a tactful thing
in protesting about Fred
Clarke's presence on the bench.
Were the team down in the race,
no part of the baseball public
would fail to see some merit IN
their action in protesting
Clarke's CO management with
McKechnie's, even though It
might imply lese majestic, but
how can you rake up sympathy
for players claiming dissenslon
and friction when their team is
leading the league?
The thing simply doesn't seem
to smatter Of thorough sincerI-
ty all the way around. Max
Carey is a smart enough young
man to have told his dis
grurtled crew that the time
was not propitious to "mutiny"
and that if they did there would
be no public credence of their
protestations because the posi-
ton and playing Of the team
wouldn't bear out their allega-
tions.
He is also smart enough to
have told them to wait until the
world series was over, when
they would be out of uniform
and could work together to
bring about better conditions
another year, and do it without
SO much danger to their inme-
date playing careers.
Any players who are about to
go to a world series are fool
ish to bring an open breach
upon themselves or their team.
Naturally it is embarrassing to
the ownership and the manage
ment. It was an ,undiplomatic
move, and if the players looked
to their captain, Max Carey, to
do so stupid a thing at such an
ill-advised time, why he simply
should have had enough leader
ship to have told them to go
chase themselves, or words to
that effect.
No leader is duty-bound to do
things which his subordinates
advise, because the very fact
that they are subordinates dis =
qualities them to see things
through the eyes of a leader.
1t is a wise general, however,
who listens to suggestions and
then does his own deciding.
Evidently Carey listened, but
his better judgment failed him
and he was egged on to pull
prize boner of diplomacy.
