TOP RATING LIKELY
/. FOR HELEN MOODY
Regarded as Due Ranking,
Though Not in 1880 Net
Title Tourney.
BY LAWRENCE PERRY.

N VIEW YORK, January 16.-mfor-
nation received by the writer
makes for confidence that Mrs.
Helen Wills Moody will not
only be placed No. / in the first flight
Of woman players by the Ranking Com
mittee of the United States Lawn Tennis
Association, but that she will also head
the international list.
The feeling has been that since Mrs.
Moody saw fit temporarily to retire
from national tournament tennis after
her return from abroad, not defending
her title in 1880 at Forest Hills-it was
won by Betty Nuthall of England-she
would be ignored by the tennis rankers.
Deserves Ranking.
But she is so obviously and by SO
great a margin the greatest tennis
PLAYER of her sex in the world tnat
failure to rank her in the position tnat
Is hers beyond all argument would be
nothing short of gross injustice to one
who has served the interests of the
sport of lawn tennis valiantly and with
distinction.
All the chances are that Mrs. Moody
will be found playing tennis on the
Rivera in the early Spring and that
She will be the distinctive figure, man
or woman, at Wimbledon.
John Doeg, the national singles
champion, is keeping himself mt THIS
Winter by playing squash racquets az
an athletic club in New Jersey, In
which State, by the way, he is now
working hard on the advertising staff
of a prominent newspaper. Doeg is
new to squash racquets, but he is put
ting a lot of vim into the game and ne
says 1t will keep him in stroking condl-
ton for tennis.

Francis Shields decision to go abroad
for play on the Riviera viii be approved
by those who know the value OF conti-
mental transforming as q developer OF
ability. The New York youth, critics
believe, holds promise of assuming posi-
ton as one of the greatest players this
country has produced and his career
abroad in 1881, terminating at Wimble-
don, will be followed with general in
tereSt.
OF particular moment win be his
contests against that quartet of French
lads who are now being groomed to
carry on when Cochet, Lacoste, Borotra,
Brugnon and BrousSus begin to falter-
as some of them, 1t seems, are now
beginning to do.

AT BOTH
PLACES HARMON|ZE
Clamor for Dual Events, but
Would Leave Foot Ball
in Allegiance.
By LAWRENCE PERRY.

EDITORIALS in the Harvard
- Crimson and the Princeton
IL Princetonian advocating q
renewal of dual relationship
In such sports as rowing, track,
base ball, tennis and the like,
with the question of foot ball to
be left in allegiance, refle ct student
opinion in both universities and
alumni opinion throughout the
country.
Hardly any traces Of the old animos-
ity remain at Cambridge and Prince
ton. Indeed. 1t Is unlikely that many
Of the students at either seat of learn
ing could give anything other than
sketchy narratives, II that, as to the
original causes of the break between
Harvard and Old Nassau.
The Tigers and the Crimson began
their competition back in the 70's, and
while geographically the two are re-
type, enter college under similar con-
ditions and pursue practically identi-
cal undergraduate studies. And 1t is
a fact that in New York, as at all
points throughout the country except
New England, Princeton. Harvard and
Yale alumni coalesce. In some West
ern cities, for example, the three are
joined in single club organization.
Getting CIoseS Rapidly.
At the same time intercollegiate ath-
letic conditions are taking q definite
political trend these days, and It Is un-
questionably true that subsurface cur
rents are bringing Harvard and Prince
ton together. Leaders In student
thought at the two universities realize
that a restoration of relationship is re-
generally, in the interests Of their good
repute and their sane conduct.
AS the editors Of the Princet5nian
and the Crimson well say, it is not nee
essary that foot ball be Immediately
included in the reunion. There are
many complications, including sched-
ule commitments and so forth, that
stand in the way Of resumption OF
gridiron rivalry; but IN order that the
two colleges might meet in other sports
1t does not seem necessary that they
play foot ball.
So far as foot ball is concerned, It Is
known that Harvard would have been
willing to play Princeton next year In
October, simply as q means OF getting
things started. But Princeton, naturalN
~ enough, refused to accept an early
date even under tire assumption that II
was TO be an cper ing wedge and would
of big Three" November foot ball In
the not distant future.
Until this comes, as it VIII, there
seems no good reason why Harvard
and Princeton should not unite In
friendly rivalry In other sports.

MARYLAND took Duke into camp
1v1 last night II a way that indicated
a general superiority. The score
Of 80 TO "a just about showed the diff
ference between the teams At times
Duke spurted and was brilliant but it
never was the consistent, steady and
apparently unhurried and unworried
combination that was Maryland
It was "Bozie" Berger who did the
bulk Of the scoring for Maryland, just
as It was CroSon who was in the spot
tailed Is points, just half the number
made by his team, while Croson got
IL, just half the points scored by Duke.
Berger was here, there and everywhere
and he seemed just as able to make
good on pot shots Is or 20 feet away
from the basket as when he was right
under It. Charlie May also played a
brilliant back game and, especially for
one Of his stature, showed an uncanny
ability TO go up and block both passes
and throws.
II was Marylands third consecutive
victory over Southern Conference foes,
Virginia Military Institute and Wash
tngton and Lee having fallen before 1t
last week.
While Berger and May, former Wash
tngton high school men played such a
big part for Maryland, 1t also Is true
that former Washington high school
men did the same thing fer Duke.
CroSon, the star, went to Duke
from Tech, and Capelli, formerly
u Eastern, and Colley of Cen
trai ed good work when they got into
the game. In fact, Colley showed
enough stuff to indicate that he is
likely to become one Of the best men
In the section.

won the 100 meters, equaling the
Olympic record.
An injured leg few days later
slowed him UP, and he failed to
reach his best condition for the
Olympic games.
Wykof uses his speed to good adj
vantage on the foot ball field, al
though he does not play. University
of Southern California has a tele-
phone system connecting the foot
ball field with the scoreboard, an
nouncer and press box, and 1t Is
Frankie's job to plug in the connec-
ton at a number Of strategically
placed posts.
His speed stands him in good
stead on puntS and long forward
passes, as he must have the line
plugged in when the announcer is
ready to tell the crowd what has

you keep on winning the alumni will
