BY the Associated Press.
CINCINNATI. Ohio, January 2.-It
was considered probable here today
that Frank Brooks, Assoc, w. Va. baby,
would be on the road to complete re-
covery within few days.
The child has been in q hospital
nearly three weeks with toy motor
cycle lodged in his throat, but doctors
today believed his strength would be
sufficient the latter part of the week
to permit an operation for its removal.
The pneumonia which set in as a re-
suit of the obstruction had been vir-
tually conquered, they said, and the
child continued to improve.

The tennis courts are occupied
by athletes capable of meeting on
an equal basis those in any other
sport and the woman tennis player
shows speed and intensity OF
action far beyond that Of the aver
age player Of baseball or golf More
than any other game. tennis calls
for quick reaction, lightning-like
motion, perfect muscle control.
Championship games, lasting an
entire afternoon, put a demand on
the system that can be responded to
only with the finest type of training.
Thus five sets of championship
tennis demand a outstanding of
physical resources similar to that re-
quired Of the runner in a marathon
race.
The demand on the nervous sys-
tenn is constant and numerous cases
of nerve exhaustion after a tourna-

Mo- and Again Mo-

IF Father Dimnet is speaking to
L me. I must answer mo" to every
one of his questions. and I am pre-
pared to defend some of nay mega
tives.
In the first place, I must admit
a fundamental schism. The able
seems addicted to the theory that
life should be planned in advance.
I think that an existence modelled
upon schedule must generally be
dull and improbable. I am aware
that John D. Rockefeller arises
always before 8 and has 6 certain
time set for golf and lunch and
breakfast. He has accumulated vast
wealth and lived to a ripe age, but
I am not convinced that his career
should be called successful. More
over. many things which suit Mr..
Rockefeller might not do at all for
you and me.
Consider just a single specific
point in Father Dimnets inquiry.
He wants to know If it is not posi-
Bile to reclaim a certain amount of
time by absenting oneself from in
ferior plays. But how, desire to
know. is the individual to know
whether a play is worthy or not
until he has seen it7 The critics,
to be sure. may give him some as
sistance. but even the best Of them
are liable to error, and surely Able
Dininet would not advise each one
Of us to form his opinions solely
upon the say-so Of some hired
hand

In addition to the physical and
mental capabilities required for
playing championship tennis, there
seems to exist also special talent
in this direction, so that only the
occasional student can reach the
heights.
Just as there are a few violin vir-
tuosos and innumerable scrapers of
f1ddles. so also are there just a few
masters of tennis and hundreds Of
thousands of people who play the
game in order to be in the open air
and to get some exercise.
Tennis has achieved enormous
popularity since the World war, al
thought not so great as that of golf.
Regardless OF this popularity
however, the number Of tennis gent
uses has not increased significantly
AS the great Tilden grows old
there does not appear to be tire
mendous number of students Of the
game able to step into his shoes.

Stand for Ideals

TT is a curious circumstance that
L these two men. both Of whom

should be standing for the only
ideals which justified it-freedom,
progress, peace.

Donald was regarded with distrust,
if not contempt, by many English
men.
A golf club dropped him from its
roster on the ground that his pub
lie utterances with regard to the

and to grave dissatisfaction among
its members, and that his conduct
