Southpaws are essential to most winning baseball clubs. They are rare as top-flight performers in golf.
 They are scarce, too. in tennis, but the greatest young southpaw American tennis has known since before the war, John Hope Doeg, 21, is the new national champion.
 The greatest tennis southpaw of all time was, of course, Norman Brookes of Australia, but Johnny Doeg, who comes from the famous tennis clan of Sutton, and the ten his star producing state of Califor- mia, is the first left-hander to win the classic turf court singles since R. Lindley Murray, another Cali fornian, was at the top in 1917-l8.
 It is noteworthy that southpaws especially California southpaws, have always been poison to Big Bill Tilden.
 Murray had the lanky Philadel- phian's number in the days when Bill was struggling to go somewhere in tennis.
 Now Doeg turn up with a brand of portside stroking even more se- were than Murray's to spoil the am- bition of the old master to make 1t eight national titles and record.
 Doeg, Murray and Little Bill" Johnston, Californians all, h lave been the only Americans to beat Tilden in the national champion ship tournament in fifteen years.
 It was a record year for south paws, with Mrs Anna Harper of Oakland, Calif., reaching the finals of the women's tennis champion ships against Betty Nuthall
 Mrs. Harper was the runner up, when final honors were distributed, but she may rank No. l on the American list this year. if Marjorie Merrill isn't given this honor
 The Californian is the best femi- nine southpaw we can recall since Leslie Bancroft, later Mrs. Charles. Aeschliman of Switzerland, was consistently taking the measure of little Helen Wills of Berkeley in 1921 -22.
 It has been topsy-turvcy tennis season and the master minds who make up the 193o U. s. ranking list will have plenty to debate. It is customary but not mandatory to rank the national champion No. I,

 Nevertheless on all-around per- formance, the top-ranking position may well go to Tilden for the elev- enth consecutive year. Big Bill won the Wimbledon crown. He was runner-up to Cochet in the French singles and scored the only Ameri- can Davis Cup victory. Doeg lost to Wilmer Allison in the semi-fin- als at Wimbledon and was not at the peak of his singles game until he reached Forest Hills.
