It's q laugh here, but 1t apparent

many bookmakers In the North and

1t, this time refers to the odds paid
by the mutuel machines on Linden

Long explained he had forced up
the Aqua Caliente mutuel odds on
Linden Tree, the logical winner, by
a late wager of 81 900 with an East
ern commissioner on Linden Tree
(too late for him to send the money
back and bet 1t in the mutuels) and
then split $4,000 between all horses in
the race except Linden Tree at the
mutuel window just before the race
started.
He got 80, TOO on his 81 900 invest

The second difficulty resulting
from a too early application of the

right hand, in assuming command,
turns the entire arm over as you

Tilden Held Inspiration.

To youngsters his exploits are an in
spiration, his name a talisman, his
career moral lesson in decent conduct
on the court and off the court. Youth
needs heroes, and experience of Amer
ican youth has demonstrated through
many generations that boyish adrnira-
ton of protagonists Of sport is thorough
ly wholesome and cor1struetively bene-
tlcial.
II Tilden at comparatively early
age had dropped his racket and gone
into business, would the world have
been the better for his entrance into
the marts of trade? A broker, say. Or
lawyer, or physician--anything.
One could say there are already enough
brokers in the world-perhaps too
many at present And there are plenty
of physicians, lawyers and business men
generally, even at the top But some
how the boys Of the Nation react to the
Tildens, the Vineses, the Ray Steckers,
Ernie Pinckerts, the Babe Ruths and
the like-because there are SO few Of
them in their chosen professions.
So it may well be that no great
calamity will follow Vines decision to
drop two terms of college and play lawn
tennis. 1t might, indeed, be-consider-
ing all related valueS-that our nation
al life would be the gamer If he never
returned to college, but pursued blaz-
ing course upward and upward into the
enduring planetary areas of tennis.
If this be apostasy, at least 1t Is not
hypocrisy, of which sport and life gen.
orally are already too full.

Youths Tennis More Help

Career, Opinion.
BY LAWRENCE FERRY.

" IL w 1S4NEN, y JdllA6A ~ hCA
~ Curley, who knows q great
l Y deal about physical condi-
tion and athletic form,
ventured the opinion today that
Bill Tilden can go on for several
years, specifically three or four,
as the champion lawn tennis pro-
fessional Of the world. Big Bill,
he points out, is always in condi-
ton, and all that he does Is 30
easily done as to entail no punish
ing strain upon his physical sys-
tenn.
There Is talk In the tennis world OF
some private matches this Winter be-
tween Ellsworth Vines and Tilden, the
design being to sharpen up the youth
full Californian's game against the
strongest two-set competition that the
world in all probability has to offer
him. 1t would be the best possible
experience for Vines as he prepares
himself for the position of spearhead
of the U. S. AS drive to bring back
the Davis Cup next Summer.
A great deal of talk among tennis
experts was heard at the Tilden-
Richards championship match at Madi-
son Square Garden as to the relative
ability of Vines and Tilden. Certainly
no two men rival each other so closely
in point of service cannonade and
withering forehand drives.
Vines Course Defended.
Watching the lanky Philadelphia
smother Winnie Richards the other
night, thought of what Tilden Is and
what he Is doing with his life got all
tangled up in the reports from Los
Angeles that Vines was going to drop
out of college for the remainder Of the
year and devote himself to developing
his form in tennis.
Holcombe Ward, chairman of the
Davis Cup Committee of the y. 8. L.
T. A. wired Vines strongly advising
him not to drop out OF college, but
Vines, who evidently has a mind OF his
own, rejected the advice. He will
concentrate upon tennis throughout the
Winter, Spring and Summer and re-
sumo his course at the University OF
Southern California next September.
Well, Is this so terrible? At first
blush the tendency was to comment
adversely upon Vines tennis PROPOSES
sion.. Somewhat in this mood the
writer sat watching Tilden at the
Garden welding his racquet so
superbly, making light of his 80 years
by an agility, dexterity and skill
that but two or three of the worlds
lawn tennis players could equal, or
perhaps offset. And thought occurred
that his popularity abroad, his in.
fuence internationally as q sportsman
and gentleman and an American are
very tangible things. They mean some
thing definite.

 NUDE FANATICS
Canada to Isolate Douk- hobors and End
 Problem

Victoria, B. C., July 19- (UP)-- The Doukhobors, fantastic religious sect, who have long troubled and embarrassed Canadian officials, will have special prison all their own to house 5S1 members of the sect. convicted of Q recent disorder in which they attempted one of their famed nude marches.
 Construction of the prison, To- cated on Piers Island, is now un- der way. The wholesale arrest of the sect members was one of the largest ever undertaken, and marked the most drastic action yet carried out against the o-sani- zation. ,s] TT
 The Doukhobors gained world wide attention by their practice of marching naked across the Canadian plains as demonstra- ton against rulings of Canadian officials, or when commnded to do so by their religious leaders.
 Sixteen large frame buildings will be erected on the island. with wings leading from a single corri- dor, enabling single guard to pa- trol an entire dormitory. The men will have double tiered hunks for sleeping quarters, while the women will be provided with single cots.
 Eight of the 16 buildings will be dormitories, while the others will serve as dining rooms, cook-houses, guard houses and commissaries. Wells will be dug to provide water, and ans entire electric lighting sys- tenn will be installed.
 Cost Of the undertakin will be considerable according to present plans, but government officials were said to feel the expenditure was Justified in that it probably would end once and for all t.t the long struggle between the sect and the authorities regarding its right to parade in the nude and8t refuse schooling offered by the govern ment.

<, Washington-An endorsement of the work of the last congress Is pronounced by E. Francis Brown, writing in Current History. MT Brown carries his review up to early in.

 Concerning the relations between MT Hoover and the 72nd congress, he writes: s5sss
 'The work of any congress can- not be assessed without consider ing it's relation with the executive branch of the government. At present the democrats have nu- merical, but not a working, major ity in the House and the republi- cans have somewhat uncertain control of the senate. ,.

Yet the 472nd congress has avoided an un- due amount of oratory and has worked with dispatch.
 MT Brown then cites the ratifica- tion of the moratorium, the pass age of the Reconstruction Finance Corporation bill, the Glass-Steagall bill, the increased capitalization of submission of the constitutional amendment abolishing the 'Iame- duck" session and. the passage of the bill prohibiting use of the i'm junction in labor disputes.
