MOSL impressive III the Hdl1Oudl
singles championship just past was
the array of young talent. While
their standard Of play is not of
absolute championship. class. it is
very nearly that. So near fsTit. that
during the coming season and the
one after, several OF the players are
certain to win important honors.
The two of the coming group who
reached the serni-fina1s. George Lott
and Frank Shields, displayed tennis
that. could only have been defeated
by the very best.
If George Lott had been able
to defeat Francis T.. Hunter In
the semi.finaIs, he would have
ranked as Americas first player.
As it is, he viii probably be
lpIaced as number two on the
list.
Frank Shields, the other semi
finalist, also deserves a high rank
ing position. Against any other per-
son but Cochet, who had the ability
of making almost any kind of OPP
position appear futile, Shields game
would have made a great impression.
AS it was. during the match. one
could not fail to observe that the
1S-year-old junior champion had
quality that is necessary to great
tennis. All that he needs is sea-
son or two in which to perfect his
game.
At the moment George Lott is the
best OF the newer players in the
field. His tennis is built along lines
that are capable of infinite improve
ment. That is, he has an easy
style, and aII-round play that will
allow him to improve as long as he
cares to play tennis.
His game carries q good deal
The Washington times., 1928-09-28

of spin i'm all Of its departments.
The service and drives both
ferehand and backhand, have
spinning balls. He has q we'll
concealed drop shot, stroke
which is among the most diff
cult to make successfully. At
the net his vOlleying Is at times
superb, and at other times not
quite so decisive.
The only thing that his game
needs, at least that which he seemed
to lack against Hunter in the semi
final match. was absolute steadi-
ness. Hunter was on one of his
steady days, as he often is. and
made few errors, his booming drives
going down the lines with tremend
Gus pace. Lott could not keep his
own shots going as consistently as,
on a day like this. was necessary
against Hunter. So he lost on his
errors rather than on any weakness
in actual playing form or strategy.
Lofts future in tennis IS GER
tain to be successful one il he
continues to practice. 1t IS
evident tn one who saw him on
the Forest Hills courts last
year and again this season that
his game has improved. He
plays a natural game, that is,
tennis comes easily to him, as
by the way, do other sports.
At college, Lott has played base
ball and this fall, when he returns,
he is going in for football.
There are many people in sports
who seem to be able to play any
game to which they turn their in
dividua1 attention.
