Julia hesitated, wondering how
much she should reveal to Wood
ford. She remembered having
told Tom Payson that Nesbitt had
been injured-but she hadn't told
him Of Nesbitt's disappearance
from the yacht. Suddenly she de-
cided to play safe, to hold from
woodford the fact that Payson
knew something Of the cruise OF
the Wood Nymph. And If she
did tell the lawyer that Payson
knew, he might shrewdly connect
Payson with the young man who
had tried to trick his way into
the radio room Of the yacht.

Woodford's relief was like a

said.

He faced her squarely. Julia.

NEXT: Who was the first king
Of Hawaii? II
Evening star., 1936-04-25

But before deciding to enter upon
the life of a tournament player, one
should read Welsh's theory Of such
an existence.
II often wonder if I am fitted to be
tennis player for life. I have too
much respect to bum my way around
continually, too much ambition to
waste time and too little money to
afford the life"
Here, however, Welsh quickly recov-
ers the utilitarian viewpoint when he
writes, However, ! see in tennis an
avenue of expression and means of
travelling over the beautiful places in
the world"
Paving the way for his future sue
cesses, Barney started early in the
year to analyze his game, to plan for
approaching matches and to prepare
himself, mentally, for the strategy Of
battle" For tennis can be hkened
to warfare, with its tactics and even
its wounds, as Barney points out after
his first major disaster" of the year.
Just before his first match in the
Old Dominion tournament at Rich
mond last May, Welsh wrote:
II am seeded to play Alphonse
Smith, who will attack my backhand
and come to the net. To beat this,
I'll take the net myself on his back
hand" How well the plan worked is
told on the following days page, on
which is inscribed the simple nota-
ton: Defeated Smith, 6-1, 6-3, in
as fine match as ever played"
A THOUGH Welsh's next prophecy
turned out enormously, the near
correctness of his prediction was
shown in the figures Of the five-set
match. The District champ, admit
ting he should beat Herbert Bowman
and win the Old Dominion of 1885,"
was beaten. 3-6, 3-6, 16, 6-3,
IS, but the defeat impelled the loser
to give a description of a players
feelings during a match-an emotion
one often gueSses at, but in no way
can ascertain.
Bowman defeated Welsh" our
young diarian began. This match
was the greatest one I have ever
played, one of the finest from tech
nical viewpoint and a thriller from
dramatic viewpoint"
Then he reveals his soul completely
by asking a question countless players
undoubtedly ask themselves: How
much punishment can a man stand
before his hand loses its strength, his
eyes their quickness and his legs their
spring?
There is terrible feeling of fatigue
that numbs the will to win and makes
the mind insensible to coherent plan
ming of tactics. Scrambling for point
after point is its characteristic, and
each point Is vital. Knowing that, at
81 in the second set, my ground
strokes were losing, gambled on my
serve, won the set but lost the match.
I have nothing but respect for Bow
man.
How many small events stand out
of all proportion when one plays in
tensed condition. For instance, the
whiteness of new tennis ball, the red
Of the court, the figure Of linesman,
the awnings Of the marquis, little
whisperings of encouragement from
the gallery as you pass them, the hush
when . lob goes up, the awed obs
and abs when one serves an ace.
Then there is the gradual reddening
Of your tennis shoes, the voice of the
umpire, and that terrible, masterful
net"
Haven't you experienced the same
sensations?
Evening star., 1936-04-25
By Bill Dismer, T.

n EFORE you pick up that tennis
X racket, young netman, before
- you begin to dream dreams
of a seasons success on the
courts, let's have a quiet, old-fashioned
talk with F. Barnard Welsh, jr., su-
preme in all things tennis in the
District of Columbia, and get cham
pion's slant on the game Of the netted
string bat and the fuzzy ball.
Let him tell you Of the joys that
will be yours after victory in a hard
fought, five-set match; of the dis
appointments Of a man taking a lick
ing in a hot, relentless sun; Of hopes
and ambitions that will follow your
first minor achievements, and Of your
varying reactions-before. during and
after playing.
It's not necessary to talk to Barney,
personally. AL we need do is take
a peep into the champions diary,
begun approximately a year ago this
month and continued throughout q
season during which the squire Of
Rockville won every local tournament
in which he participated, and the
State championships of Pennsylvania
and West Virginia before establishing
himself as the king of the country's
public parks players for the second
successive year.
For Barney, deadly serious about
this game Of tennis, has kept a de-
tailed personal history Of 1885, one
which not only will afford him much
pleasure in years to come, but serve
as a guide and textbook when prepar-
ing for future matches. And it is
because of the. latter, so applicable
to all players, that his permission was
given to pass it on to you.
Why do you play tennis? Have
you ever stopped to ask yourself that
question? It's one Of the first that
Barney discussed for himself and he
elaborates upon it as follows:
What is the incentive that makes
q tennis player tennis player? Is ii
glory? No, that is passing and we
realize it is fleeting and shun it. Is
it travel? Partly so. But the central
fact is, that we love the atmosphere
Of the court, the taste of salty sweat
in our mouths and the realization that
we have a chance to express ourselves
WE ARE all artists in our own
w way. Each stroke, grimace and
gesture reflects our personality, even
our heart. Therefore, the power OF
tennis to attract young men is the
same as war, and many a player has
played as violently as the Greeks at
Thermopalyae."
And, admitting that four-fifths OF
a match are decided on strokes, the
reflective champion goes on to state
that one important sphere of the game
is played in the mind. He believes
that q man with the stoical tempera-
ment of La Coste will average better
than the so-called "temperamental'
player. It is this remaining fifth that
Welsh feels he, himself, is lacking
and that his greater victories will be
due to mental makeup, gems (the
rick shots pulled at critical times) and
brains"
