Plays Amazing Game.

Although he was playing only the
second time since early February
Perry displayed an amazing assort-
ment of strokes. His forehand, which
he used now and then with a sort OF
whiphke action that caught Maskell
flat-footed, bore little resemblance te
the fat, medium paced drive he re-
lied on last Summer. It's a far more
dangerous weapon.
Il used 1t q lot in Australia" he
said. Its a winner with this new
and faster BAH adopted by the Inter
national Federation"
The faster ball, incidentally. will
be used both in the al-England cham
pionships here and in the Davis CUP
contests. Maskell thinks 1t will help
hard hitters like Frank Shields and
Les Stoefen, but he doubts 1t will help
them enough.
II don't see how any country can
take the big cup from us this year. "
continued Maskell. You Just saw
how Perry's playing and I can vouch
tha Bunny Austin is playing the best
tennis OF his career right now. In
fact, he's reached his peak too soon,
and my Job from now on is to ease
him up and keep him ready for the
Davis Cup.
so We have this pair-two of the
three or four best singles players in
the world-and q couple Of frst-rate
doubles players in Hughes and Lee to
help out. Tell me who's going to beat
that combination"

Indian Spring Commended.

THEY seem to be popular affairs
i and certainly they are the best
means of developing young
players. But why the clubs which
give them should hold the bag in a
financial way is one of those unsolved
mysteries which have to do with
human psychology, the good old spirit
of hospitality and all those intangi-
bles which come under the general
head of good-fellowship and amateur
sport.
On May 8 and 9 the gents who
play in the qualification round of
the Indian Spring affair will all have
paid twb bucks for the privilege.
That is as it should be and the issue
will not be clouded with a lot Of TOM
foolery about hoping for tangible re-
turns to the club. 1t is a straight
open-and-shut proposition and one
for which Indian Spring should be
commended for taking the lead.
Sooner or later most of the clubs
which hold these affairs will come to
it, if only for the purpose of cutting
down the size of the fields. Needless
to say Indian Spring will not make
anything from the tournament. The
money raised from entry fees will be
put back into the tourney in the form
of prizes. Entry fees are charged at
all sectional tournaments and in all
the large golf events involving titles
Why not invitation tournaments? It
seems just as sensible to charge an
entry fee for club event as for an
affair whose winner will have the title
of champion"

w WASHINGTON golfers are
M watching with interest
v v the development of the
only innovation that
has come into invitation tour
nament golf around Washington
in several years-the initiation
OF the fee system for invitation
affairs, to be inaugurated by the
Indian Spring Country Club for
its tourney listed for May 8, 8,
10 and IL.
AS announced several weeks ago.
Indian Spring is planning to charge
an entry fee of 81 to each contestant.
The other clubs which stage invitation
tournaments each year are keenly in
terested in the experiment at Indian
Spring for several reasons-most of
them having to do with reduction of
expense to the club in staging the
events which dot the Spring schedule.
While there is no telling Just now
whether the invitation events will
have the huge and unwieldy fields
winch attended them in the whoop-la
days OF 1929 and before, it is certain
that the levy of a small entry fee of
s2 or more will have the effect of
reducing the size of the entry list.
There is no more reason why a man
should use for four days free the
faculties OF country club and its
goH course during a golf jamboree
than for cancellation OF the gate fee
at base ball game or the race track
or any other sporting event. Invita-
ton events are considerable burden
TO the clubs which hold them and
there is seldom any return on the
investment except that satisfaction of
hospitality and a job well done. In
dian Spring is taking long step for
ward in moving invitation tourna-
ments out of the red.

been burning with an intense desire
