THE SPORTLICHT
The Many Ring Circus.
BY GRANTLAND RICE.

The Many Ring Circus.
THE situation is beginning to pop
i entirely too briSkly in sport at this
time. Both the tennis champion
ship and the polo matches start to-
day and carry over into next week.
On Monday the P. @. A. champion
ship gets under way at Fresh Meadow
with Leo Diegel defending his title and
on Saturday Shamrock v and Enter
prise put on their deep sea duel.
While all this is taking place the
Giants and Cardinals will be chasing
the Cubs, the Senators will be In hot
pursuit of the Athletics and the now
thoroughly aroused Babe Ruth will be
bounding along after Hack Wilson
scalp. To say nothing of landscapes
cluttered up with foot ball talent all
over the map.
Only a double deckered argus can
follow all these episodes and even then
he would nesd the legs of centipede
as well. The next three or four weeks
will crowd in more sporting action of
national and international interest than
any equal period of time has ever known
before in the history of the world.
There hes been no similar period before
that even approaches the quantity and
quality of the coming program.

an international turn to the ten
mis- championship well beyond

a siashing tennis player and q great
competitor, but one of the most color
full Of all entries. no matter what the
game.
With Tilden in one bracket and
Borotra in the other. the possibility
of another Franco-American tennis war
is imminent, but hardly certain. Both
have number of strong playing young
sters to eliminate first, especially
Borotra, who wadeS into trouble from
the first day out
There is always the possibility that
Lott, Allison, Vines, Wood or several
others will rise to a big day--a day
big enough to carry even Tilden or
a Borotra to the limit. One of these
two should win, with Tilden favored.
but this next tennis party at Forest
Hills should be one of the most inter-
esting championships of many years.
When you toss two such veterans as
Tilden and Borotra into flock of
younger stars, the action is sure to be
fast from the first volley.
