INDOOR NET SQUAD
WILL Be YOUTHFUL
Several U. S. RaCketerS Now
in New York Might Do
Well Against French.
BY LAWRENCE PERRY.

~ YEW YORK, February at Is
very interesting to hear that
the choice seats for the inter-
national indoor tennis match,
France VS.. America, which begins
March 20 at the Seventh Regiment Ar
mory in this city, are selling rapidly
an unprecedented situation at a date
so early.
The French team, as it is known, will
consist of Borotra, Brugnon and Bous-
suS, and the series will occupy three
nights of play-two singles matches the
first night, one doubles match and ex-
hibitions on the next, and on the final
night two singles.
AS to the American side, doubt exists
as to the exact makeup. 1t is certain
that it will consist completely of our
younger players-not a one more than
IS years old OF the men who met the
French in the last match, Bill Tilden,
Francis Hunter and Vincent Richards
have all heard the siren call of the
professional promoter and thus are out
of the picture.
Last Matches Stirring.
And in this connection, what tennis
enthusiast who happened to be in New
York will not recall that last great night
of the tournament when Tilden and
Richards, striving nightly, won the
series for the United States, while three
or four thousand stood outside unable
to crowd into the armory?
have all passed and the call of youth
rises insistently as we'll as of necessity.
Who will comprise the American side?
Well, as it happens, most of our leading
young racket wielders are within call.
Frank Shields lives in New York, John
Doeg, the champion, has transplanted
himself from California to Jersey, across
the Hudson from New York; Gregory
Mangin is In New York, 10 miles from
the metropolis; Berkeley Bell, the Texan,
Is now in business in New York, and
George Lott and Johnny Van Ryn are
not so busy toiling in the Philadelphia
marts of trade that they cannot come
to the 7th Regiment Armory II they
are chosen to serve on the American.
In fact. of all the top-flight youngsters
Wilmer Allison alone is remote, but he
is in a position to be brought up from
Texas If the Tennis Association Tourna-
ment Committee wants him.
With the national indoor singles start
ing on the same courts on March IA
and running out the week, what stir
ring 10 days of tennis are In store for
followers of the sport who are in New
York or can come here!
1t has been said that Tilden and the
other pros will be involved in the second
day of the exhibition matches and they
may be If the political point is not too
big for the U. S. L. T. A. to swallow
and those who have the mercenarieS
under contract are willing-as they may
not be. At any rate, we shall have 10
days of thrilling sport.
