1t may be remembered that 1
spoke recently about Miss Bingley
and how she won six champion
ships dressed in skirts to her shoe
tops-and probably other skirts
under that-leather gauntlets and
stiff straw hat. Contrast her
with the players of today; with
Senorita Lii de Alvarez and Eileen
Bennett, for example.
At Wimbledon in the season just
passed Miss Bennett, an English
gilr, and Senorita de Alvarez, from
Spain, were in my opinion the two
most colorful players on the courts
because of their attire and general
appearance. A great many of the
spectators agreed that Eileen was
the prettiest girl there and some
added that she was the most at.
tractively dressed. Certainly she
made a pretty picture.
The Washington times., 1928-11-22

Miss Bennett always wears a
One-piece dress of fine cotton
material with finely plated
skirt and a tightly fitting
waist. Her costume, always
without wrinkle, gives a pic
ture of freshness and crispness
which no silk dress can achieve.
The Washington times., 1928-11-22

For her more important matches
she wears an eyeshade. At other
times she wears colored headbands
to match her sweater jumper. One
especially pretty one was in a
light shade of tomato red. With
it she wore silk headband to
match and a gay square handker-
chief scarf in design of the
same red, with cream and yellow.
This was one of the gayest and
most striking ensembles seen at
Wimbledon.
Senorita de Alvarez was more
than ordinarily attractive this past
season. One of her most stunning
"turnouts" was a white dress of a
heavy washable silk material. 1t
was sleeveless, with square neck
line and had inverted plaits all
around the skirt. The plaits were
cleVerly sewed down so that they
formed a double thickness both on
the front and back of the bodice.
With this she wore different colored
sleeveless jumpers in a heavy silk
crepe with headband to match.
This beautiful Spanish girl is
ever on the alert to keep herself
in condition for her matches. One
of her methods while at Cannes.
take her exercise on the beach
which gives the leg muscle plenty
to do. Senorita de Alvarez also is
an expert swimmer and gets much
JOY out Of it.

The Washington times., 1928-11-22

The climate abroad enables play
ers to wear silk, but in this coun-
try, where it is so much hotter in
the summer, silk materials are not
practical for strenuous play. This is
why all of the better American
women players wear linen or cotton
dresses in their matches.
But after all is said the question
of comfort and suitability is what
decides the tennis modes, whether
it be at Wimbledon or in the
United States. A player must not
be hampered in any way while in
action. Her costume must permit
absolute freedom of movement. That
is matter of necessity if the best
results of the game are to. be OBJ
tanned. After that it becomes a
matter of good taste which has
decreed that the dress shall be cut
on simple lines and made of some
plain white material suited to active
sport.
Which is why never cease to
marvel at Miss Bingley's being
able to play as well as she did.

Judging from opinions gath
cred at Wimbledon last sum,
mer the conventional white for
tennis will endure always for
active play. The range Of col
ors and combinations for sweat
ers, jumpers and headbands Is
infinite, however, and players
are permitted to use their
imagination as much as they
wish in this direction.

MAJOR CARRUTHERs PROMOTED

Major ". J. Carruthers. division al commander for the Salvation Army in Alaska and Northern Brit ish Columbia. has received orders to prepare to farewell from Alaska about the 18th of October.
 Major Carruthers leaves Wrangell to become commander of the Mani toba Division with headquarters in Winnipeg.
 Manitoba is one of the most i'm portant Salvation Army divisions in Canada. and the transfer of Major Carruthers from his work on the frontier is in the nature of a big pro- motion.
 Major Carruthers will be succeed cd in this division by Staff-captain Joseph Acton, now in charge Of Cita- del Corps No. 1, Winnipeg.
 Ten years ago Major Carruthers came to Wrangell as an ensign. Two years later he left here as an adju- tant. After an absence of three years in Saskatchewan he was re- turned to Alaska, and has made Wrangell hi headquarters for hte past five years.
 Tn leaving for Winnipeg Major Carruthers is returning to the city of his nativity. In 1906 he became identified with the Salvation Army In 1909 he was commissioned as a lieutenant Now in less than 20 years, he has been given the con- mand of one of the most important divisions in the Dominion.
 Major Carruthers states that nat urally he feels flattered by his pro- motion, but that nevertheless he and his family will leave Alaska with considerable regret. He says he has had his whole heart in the Northern work, and that recently while dis eussing the Alaska situation with his superior officer, he expressed a desire to remain in Alaska for num- Der of years.
 During their seven years resi- dence in Wrangell Major and Mrs. Carruthers have been considered among the towns most substantial and useful citizens. They have a host of friends here who will learn with deep regret that they are soon to leave us.

DRY OFFICER MAKES BIG RAID

KETGHIkAN = Customers and consumers Of the famous and well reputed Berry brand of moonshine whiskey are to be disappointed for a time. at least. Prohibition Officer Fred Handy. aided by two men from the coast guard cutter Cygan having swooped down upon the manufactur- ing establishment on Prince of Wales Island. Tom Berry. general mana ger and distiller. and his assistants, Johannes Peterson and A. Nord- stroms were arrested and charged under the Alaska bone dry act with manufacturing and possession of in toxciating liquors
 Bert Barclay found at the estab- lishment at the time. denied any con- neetion with the place and in this. according 10 Handy. he was eorrob- orated by the other three.
 Berry declared the place was his. that he was the manufacturer and purveyor to many select Ketehikan customers. He said and in this was backed up by the others that Peter son and Nordstrom were the "handy men" about the place. Their story. all was that Barclay. on a hunting trip had just dropped in on them be- fore the officers arrived.
 While the three were charged with violation Of the Alaska bone dry act, II. D. stabler, assistant United States attorney drew up papers charging Barclay with violation of the natioanl prohibition act and will ask the United States commissioner to bind them over to the next grand jury.
 The haul made by the officers con- sisted of 69 kegs, 10 gallons each, filled with moonshine. Is sacks con taining 12 bottles each. two stills, one of 100-gallon capacity and the other of 300 gallons, besides 30 tferces of mash.
 The officers report the place as clean, well kept, and apparently eY- cry precaution was being taken to give the customers good stuff" The aging Yats, it was said, would with in a few days give the product all the qualities of year-old grog.
 AS yet the eases have not been dis posed of in the commissioner court.
