FAIR RACKETERS
OPEN BIG EVENT
Largest Field of Season
Plays in Tournament of
Women's League.

NHEIR interest heightened by q
tournament which they spon-
sor themselves each year, 80
women-the largest field to
enter q feminine tourney here this
year-began play yesterday on the
Rock Greek courts In the annual tour
nament Of the Women's Tennis League.
While "a entered the District tour
nament last month, only II signed up
for the public parks play which ended
last Sunday and court fans were be-
ginning to wonder If the women had
deserted the hot courts altogether.
There was q reason, though, for only
that mere dozen. we learned yesterday.
Most of the leading fair players and
some who are not among the leaders
but who always enter tournaments,
are members of private clubs and thus
were ineligible for Winfree Johnson's
pet tourney. But club members and
non-club members turned out en-
masse yesterday and just rs many
were expected to sign up today for the
doubles competition which will start
tomorrow.
Another item that sustains interest
in the women's tournament is the
concurrent consultations tourney,
which gives to each loser another op-
portunity to play. When a girl loses
her first round match and then real
ICES she still has q chance to win a
prize-even though 1t Is a consolation
reward-she doesn't become discour-
agd SO quickly.

Not many folks know that this

any pampered notions. They play the
game from the first tee shot and they
play 1t hard and well. Nurtured in
golf under trying conditions. they play
on shoe-string and they play so well
that many of them rate up among the
top club swingers of the Nation.
