Without International
Federation O. K.

n IEW YORK, February LII
M an open lawn tennis
/ tournament is ever sane
toned by the U. S. L. T. A.
as it may be under certain con-
ditions-it will be an indoor Win
ter affair, probably in Chicago or
some other important midland
center.
The indoor suggestion comes from
Mrs. Helen Wills Moody. The Middle
Western setting is the supplementary
idea Of our tennis politicians-or, II
you prefer, diplomats.
This implies that official tennis folk
are not averse to an open tourney.
canvass Of powers that be reveals a
somewhat cautious but nonetheless
definite sentiment favoring it.
No o. X. for Outdoors.
DUT the national association never
n will approve an outdoor meeting
among pros and amateurs. While
reasons for this should be fairly obvious
1t will do no harm to cite them.
First, there already is enough Sum-
mer tennis, what with important club
Journeys and national and sectional
events. without complicating matters
by the addition of an open meeting.
Then there is the economic aspect.
II an open tournament were held prior
to the various national championship
matches 1t would conceivably detract
from their significance as revenue pro-
ducers, while if played after these fea-
lures 1t still might be detrimental IN
asmuch as a considerable number OF
customers would be inclined to reserve
their patronage for the big show, with
its galaxy of colorful commercial
racquet wielders.
On the other hand. Winter show
would have much to commend 1t.
Financially it would be lucrative and
the u. S. L. T. A., amateur though 1t
be- is necessarily as interested in gate
receipts as any group OF pros could
possibly be.
Would Add TO Interest.
"HEN, too, it would serve to keep
interest in tennis alive in the Win
ter Notwithstanding that the
indoor amateur events fail to do.
Mrs. Moody makes a good point in
her suggestion that steps should be
taken. in event of an open meet. to
establish a clear distinction as between
the amateurs and the mercenarles.
Such distinction as might be devised
could very easily be carried to mat
ter of garb. The Simon pures, for ex-
ample, could retain their spotlessly
white raiment, while the professionals
might appear in the red garb and
horned hat Of Mephisto.
Nature PROBABLY would apply another
distinction, to be noted in expressions
of envy and of aspiration upon the
faces Of the amateurs as they behold
their opulent professional brothers, who
will be reaping something more than
the price of a weeks livelihood out OF
the event while they themselves are re-
cipients of carfare and restricted hotel
expenses.

Nenana, last week, John Osberg,
SO years old, died in st. Joseph's
hospital in Fairbanks. He had been

Both his legs from the feet to

was unconscious on his arrival
The belief is entertained that he
suffered a stroke of apoplexy while
on the trail and that the freezing
