Local Star Regarded High
Iy by Critics.

By Times Special
KANSAS CITY, Mo, May 21.--
The United Stats Davis cup tennis
team which will meet China in the
second round of the American zone
matches here later this week, prob
ably will arrive here Tuesday TO
commence limbering up on the local
courts. The matches will start
Friday.
The United States team will be
composed of Capt. William T. Tilden
of Philadelphia; Johnny HenneSsey,
the brilliant Indianapolis star;
George Lott of Chicago, and Wilbur
F. (Junior) Coen, the youthful local
sensation.
If victorious against the Chinese
team the United States squad will
meet the winner of the Japan
Canada match in the American zone
finals at Chicago, June l, 2 and 4.
If successful again the players will
sail for England June 8, to be met
there by Francis T. Hunter, ranking
No. 2 player, now playing in Europe.
-Four of the players will be selected
to represent the United States in
the interzone finals with the winner
OF the European zone play, July II,
10 and 10. The challenge round will
be played July "a, rs and g..
Tennis critics over the nation are
almost unanimous in the belief that
Tilden, Hennessey, Hunter and Lott
will compose the team, with Coen
as an alternate. 1t is believed by
some that Tilden will relinquish his
place in the singles play to Henne5-
sey whose play this year has been
near-perfect.

The present rule, with a runner
on first and less than two out, gives
the base runner proper protection,
since the batsman is automatically
out and no other play is possible,
unless the runner or runners seek
to advance at their peril on the
dropped third strike.
When two are out it is compul-
sorry that the third strike be caught
