POTOMACS' RETURN ADDS
MUCH TO TITLE REGATTA

Clubs are planning on entering a
large number, of crafts. 1t Is ex-
pected that each club will have al
least one entry in the singles SOULS
Officials of the association have not
yet decided how many events will be
staged. President E. E. LAWYER, jr.,
of Alexandria states that the events
will be determined after it is learned
just what entries each club can make.
At a meeting last February, the
association set specified guaranteed
expenses to govern future regattas.
with the result that Potomacs asked
for reinstatement, which was granted.
Potomacs withdrew from the associa-
ton two years ago, when it was found
too expensive to take part in the
annual affairs.
Ariel Club is making extensive plans
for entertaining the visiting blades
men. An attractive and fast course is
provided on the Patapsco. and the
whole affair promises to be more sue
cesSfui and more colorful than any
previous regattas of the association.
A committee, consisting of one
member from each club, is in charge
of the affair. Charles Howard Of
Ariel, is chairman. Other members
are: Charles Haslup, Arundel; J. T.

and a former clever performer on the
base ball and swimming teams of Cen
trail High School, from which he was
graduated last month with high hon.
ors. has been appointed to the United
States Naval Academy. He has fore.
gone a four-year scholarship at st.
Johns College, Annapolis, which he
won. i.
Lcverton was an outfielder on the

MJJNY NET PLAY DELAYED.
AS WILMINGTON MAY QUIT

Some of the younger players have
flashed to the front in the Public
Parks League here this Summer ana
some changes in the local lntercity
League team are expected. A large
list of entries is looked for.
Washington's need of more public
tennis courts is not any greater than
the need of grass courts, local en-.
thusiasts of the game claim.
Grass courts are almost strangers to
local players game considerably in
themselves in desperate straits when
called upon to defend Washington's
tennis standing on foreign courts
where grass Is played upon.
Local players going to Baltimore
are almost lost on the grass courts
there. A few grass courts here to
permit local players to become ac'
quainted with them would boost the
local players game considerable in
outside competition.
In carrying out it's plan to give 20
cal net players more courts, the Pub
lie Buildings and Public Parks Depart.
ment would aid materially by con-
structing several good grass courts
Tor the use of the intercity players.
The much discussed foot -fauIting
was quite a problem among the
younger net stars of the District. In
the recent Junior and boys elimina
ton tournaments at Chew Chase
Club it was agreed that referees would
not call these errors.
stepping on or over the line in serv
ing has long been the cause of MANY
disputes in tennis tournaments. It is
a difficult habit to break if once start
ed and the serious student of the net
game is wise to evade it at the start

With the assurance that the cream
from this section will compete and
the possibility that there will be en-
trants from as far North as Boston
and as far West as Chicago, it APP
pears that the Delaware Chesapeake
division championship regatta of the
American Canoe Racing Association
to be held on the Potomac, here July
- under auspices of the Potomac Boat
Club is going to prove a bang-up af-
fair. Territory south of Trenton, n.
j., is embraced in the Delaware
Chesapeake division.
J. w. Burch. vice commodore of
the Delaware Chesapeake division and
in charge of canoeists at the Potomac
Club, who is general chairman in
charge of arrangements for the
regatta, is hopeful of having combina-
tons here not only from Chicago and
Boston. but from New York, Philadel-
phia. Baltimore and other points in
addition to the representatives of the
local clubs, Potomac, Washington
Canoe and the Old Dominion of
Alexandria. If he can get groups
from Chicago, Boston and New York.
Burch believes that other cities will
quickly fall in line. If Chicago is
represented, IL would be the first time
a canoe contingent from that city
ever came East. The Windy City
paddlers are reported hot" and
doubtless would prove a big attrac-
ton. New York has promised to send
anywhere from IS to 40 bladesmen
