Four of the city's best racqueters
will clash in the semi.finals of the
Women's District Tennis League
tourney singles this afternoon on the
Henry Park courts at Sixth and B
Streets at o'clock.
Corinne Frazier will take on
Frances Walker. According to Hoyle,
head will take ON her schoolmate,
Frances Walker. According to hoyle,
Misses Krucoff and Walker should
meet in the finals, for both Miss
Moorhead and Miss Frazier have
bowed to their slated opponents
oftener than they have emerged VIC
torious. However. both Corinne and
Phoebe are going strong. Corinne
is covering the court in, a spectacu.

According to information avail
able today. the series resulted in q
bareback to the Hagen.MitchelI con.
troversy of the last British golf
season, it being claimed on that
occasion that Hagen purposely was
late in arriving for the match in
order to discompose Abe. Later, as
he was leaving the country, Hagen
aired a few views on the subject
Of British golf, just by way of pour.
ing oil on the troubled flames.
However, everything was sup
posed to be serene again when
the professionals of both cOun.
tries convened at Worcester for
the international team matches.
And then the fun began!
Ted Ray, the British captain, an.
nounced his lineup at an early
moment. Hagen was pleased to
defer his decision and, after he had
reached It, wanted to make q few
alterations. The British objected
and a few harsh syllables were ex-
changed on the subject of sports.
manship. Hagen finally let the
foursome arrangement go, as read,
but he still was a man with plenty
OF ideas and tendency to use some
of them.
AL Watrous had declared himself
out of the series because of an in.
1ured finger and Al Espinosa there.
upon was nominated for one of the
singles. But Watrous changed his
mind, so Hagen changed his team,
Espinosa changed his clothes and
Ray changed his disposition.
The latter felt that somebody
had slipped over what is Vul.
carly known as q fast one ON
him and didn't hesitate to say
so. international fellowship was
having field day, but calm
finally prevailed once more and
the match went on.
However, mutual determinations
seemed to be the vogue, for after
their defeat, the British were openly
critical of what they. termed Hagen s
Jugglery of positions In the singles
team. They were surprised that Bill
Mehlhorn. was named for the No. 2
spot instead Of Joe Turnesa or John
Golden and rather pointedly init
mated that Hagen had connived to
bring his strongest men against the
weakest of the British.
1t apparently didn't occur to them
that. IL Hagen had done this, he
must bring his weakest men against
the strongest of the British. But
then an international argument sell
dom makes good sense, anyhow.
The whole trouble revolves around
the fact that America believes in
the principal of substitution in sport.
first. on the theory of sustained
efficiency, and. second, to give many
a chance to play. instead of few.
England believes in rising or falling
with its original resources, which
probably is one of the reasons it
rises so seldom.
There probably is much to be said
on both sides, but this fact won't
serve to make the British love
Hagen for himself alone.
