TILDEN AND HUNTER
ARE NOT Debating

BY tho Associated Press
NEW YORK, February 14-William
T. Tilden. Cd. and Francis T. Hunter,
ranking No. and 2 players, respec-
lively on the national tennis list, are
ready to compete for the United States
in either the American zone or interzone
Davis Cup play.
Contrary to published reports that the
International doubles champions would
compete only In the interzone COMPETE
ton or not at all, Tilden and Hunter
announced here that they were ready
to accede to the wishes of the Davis Cup
committee even should they be forced
to give up their contemplated trip
abroad early this Summer.
They have suggested to the United
States Lawn Tennis Association that two
Davis Cup teams be appointed. one to
compete in the American zone and the
other to go overseas to get accustomed
to European playing conditions before
the interzone final. This two-tearn sug-
gestion was referred to the Davis Cup
committee without Endorsement at last
weeks meeting of the tennis association.
At that time Tilden and Hunter were
quoted as declaring they would go
and probably would not be available for
duty in the American zone play sched-
uled for June
Upon their return here. however, they
declared they would obey the wishes of
The Davis Cup committee, and compete,
should they be so asked. In the zone play
here They suggested. however. that II
the committee wishes them to play here
that some of the younger players be sent
abroad to acclimate themselves before
the clashes with the European zone
winners. should the United States sur
vive preliminary play in the American

teur.Pro Play.

Congressional Country Club will not
hold an invitation golf tournament IN
the Spring. Holding that the con-
venience OF the club membership Is the
main consideration of any club COM
mittee, the golf committee. headed by
Guy Mason, has sounded sentiment at
the club and decided that In view OF
crowded conditions on the golf course
and for other reasons. the CLUB VIII
not schedule an invitation event. IT
conditions warrant. a tournament may
be held in the Fall.
The decision is strictly in line with
the suggestion made by President A. E.
Steinem OF the District Coli Association
several months ago that the clubs hold
tournaments only once every two years.
although Mason declares the District
Golf Association suggestion Is not the
governing factor behind the Congress
sional decision.
we feel that our members deserve
first consideration Mason said today,
with our course crowded every day.
and particularly during the time when
the tournament usually is held, we feel
that in Justice to our playing member
ship we should not hold tournament
this year A full week is needed for
the playing of tournament. during
which our members have little use Of
the course. Our playing membership is
large and anxious to use the present
golf facilities. and we are OF the opinion
they should not be deprived Of use Oh
the course.
The Congressional decision is the first
positive answer to the suggestion that
the tournaments be cut down in num-
Der. Several other clubs are understood
to have replied to the District Golf AS
ISOLATION that inasmuch as the tourna-
ments are club affairs given by the club
members for their friends. they may
hold them II they wish regardless of
what other golf organizations may do.

a somewhat expensive series of illustra-
tons of what could be done with an
effective curve. He could even place
three ducks in row and cut out the
middle one with hook. or shoot around
a fallen pin on the alley 10 drop one
standing behind it.
In the early days of the bowling game,
a curve was essential. The player did
not shoot at pins. but at a cone. much
as one pitches horSeshoeS. Since the
object was to place the ball as near
the cone as possible. the man bowling
last faced the problem of knocking
away from the cone any opponent ball
that might be close. or Of curving his
own shot around it and closer TO the
cone.
The ball was an odd sort of thing,
too. being half spherical and half oval
form adopted to make It right for a
roundhouse curve.
