in danger Of having a sack thrown

away to captain the 1885 American
Davis cup team.
don't mean to scare you, but
the United States Lawn Tennis as
sociation is likely to have TO adopt
such a stern measure to get a lead
er for next years forces. The as
scciation isn't likely to have any
volunteers; certainly net any whose
mental layout IS within thre
etrokes CT Par. And I cant picture
the association, despite the presence
in its makeup of more brass than
there is in st. Gauden's Lincoln
Il know its bronze! know it's
bronzeD, asking anybody to take
the job
The job was bad enough last year,
as Dick Williams. the playing non
playing captain, found out. This
year it's going to be worse than
ever. for when those two playboys
cf the western world, George Lott
and Lester Stoefen, turned profes-
cional, our side lost the only two
guys it had who 60 out there at
Roland Cares or Wimbledon or
anywhere else, and deliver. The
Messrs. Lott and Stoefen did not OBJ
serve the strictest Of training rules.
They played the dogs, followed he
hcrses, stepped few graceful tan
gcj On London's hot spots, and,
when cornered, even swigged few
cocktails.
But. despite the fact that they
acted like human beings more than
ranking tennis players, Itey won ev
erything they went out for, includ-
ing the Wimbledon championship,
and their doubles match in both
the interzone. and challenge round
cup play. The boys were good for
sure point whenever they picked up
their bats.
The 1885 team, which you may
have TO captain unless you keep
your eyes open and avoid lonely
streets after dark, will be sure Of no
thing. unless it Is defeat. Accord
ing OF present plans it will be com
posed Of Wilmer Allison, Sidney
Wood. Donald Bulge and Gene Ma
Ko. with the first two parties named
hardling the singles, and the young
sters doing the doubles.
What may he expected from this
group? Well, I'd say they will have
an even chance against Australia CT
japan in the interzone finals, and
will run strictly for Mrs. Sweeney
against England in the showdown
for the cup. Allison and wood,
sound players as they are, can play
Perry from now until the last COW
comes home without winning. And
I wouldn't risk q penny on them
against Bunny Austin. Bunny, as
old school -tiesh, and thoroughly dis
likeable as he is. is a whole lot Of
something when the king and queen
sit down and they start playing for
keeps.
In another couple of years Bulge
ana Mako probably will be the best
doubles team in the world. But what
they'll do next year, in their de
but as internationalists, is some
thing else again. In fact, I'll wager
a guess that our doubles team fer
1885 will wind-up being Allison and
Johnny Van Ryn.

FRIENDS DOUBT
HOOVER SEEKS
'36 NOMINATION
RumOrS Associated With
His Missouri Trip Are
Discounted.
By United Press

( By United Press
WASHINGTON, March 31.-For-
mer President Herbert Hoover,
whose midwestern auto tour at
tracts attention, is definitely out of
the 1886 presidential picture ana
will take small part in the 1884 con-
greSsional campaign if the judg-
ment of his Washington friends is
ny good.
! Mr.. Hoover was last reported in
Kansas City with Iowa, his native
state, the next stop. Explanations
vary of this eastward venture from
sunny California during a month
notable for doubtful weather in the
valleys of the Kaw and the Mis-
souri,.
The best one, from a senator who
defends the Hoover administration
vigorously, is that Mr.. Hoover has
served a term of silence and is de-
Gliding in his own mind whether the
time has come to talk. The former
President told friends as he left
Washington in March, 1888, that he
would utter no criticisms of the
Roosevelt administration for at least
a year.
AS recently as last autumn Mr..
Hoover assured a senatorial visitor
to Palo Alto that he would not be
a candidate for the Republican
presidential nomination in 1886.
The immediate question raised by
his KanSaS-MiSsouri-I Iowa travel is
whether he is planning to become
active in the congressional cam
paign.
In conversation with a dozen
prominent Republicans who are or
have been close to the former Pres
ldent, the impression was given the
United Press that Mr.. Hoover would
not be pressed to mix deeply into
the 1884 congressional scramble.
There is no bond between the re-
Gently formed joint Republican
congressional campaign committee
and Chairman Everett Sanders of
the Republican national committee.
Creation of the joint committee
served largely to exclude Mr.. San
ders from the 1884 campaign. And
Mr.. Sanders is Mr. Hoover's man.
placed in charge in June, 1882. after
the Chicago nominating conven-
ton.
Some Republican congressional
candidates will state frankly, if phi
vately, that they hope Mr.. Hoover
will remain silent Others feel that
he should present his views occa-
Sionally in campaign statements to
the press. 1t would be an unusual
congressional campaign, indeed in
which the man who polled the Iarg-
est popular vote ever achieved BIZ
a Republican nominee sat silent
from April to November.
That Mr.. Hoover will not 20 On
the stump, or. even, on the radio
seems to be the Republican con-
Sensus here. 1t is likely, however.
that the latter part of the cam
palgn period will discover his views
IN the newspapers.
