The Practice Wall


 I have found that the best possible method for beginners to develop their ground strokes, is by playing the ball against c practice wall for ct least half-hour 0 day.
 Any blank wall which has a smooth level stretch of ground in front of 1t will do. On a regular practice wall, such as most tennis clubs provide nowadays, line iS drawn indicating the height of the net. This line should Dc forty-twe inches high at each end, and thirty six inches from the ground in tht center. The length Of the line should be twenty-sevon feet, which is the regulation width of a single' court, This imitation net affords on' an opportunity to judge accurately the width of the court and th' height of the net, and there iS n' better method of learning to judg' distance, or to acquire steadiness 1T keeping the ball in play.
 Quite often I advise my pupils
 to spend from ten to fifteen minutes playing the bail against
 the wall before their regular leS- son begins. This practice enables them to get their eye on the ball then, rather than trying to do 70 later, while concentrating on the various lntrlcacles of stroke production.
 Play the ball easily at first in or- der that you will have ample time to make the back-Swing and follow through smoothly. Make certain that your feet are in tho proper

MORE EQUINE
 STARS SHOW FOR HAMBLETON|AN
Ruth M. Mac and Esther Hanover Latest FilIies
 to Gain Favor

Goshen, N. r.. Aug. 5--(SpeciaD Not satisfied with the most scrnn1- blcd field of three-year-olds ever to go to the post in the $40,o00 Ham, bletonian Stake, two more fillies en- tered tho charmed circle of fnVoriteS when Ruth M. Mac and Esther Han. over each calked up victories ct Old Orchard Beach last week.
 This brings Q total of Ave Allies Into tho spotlight as leading choices for the tenth renewal of the Goshen Derby on August l2. With the addi- ton of three colts, Q field of favor- ties adds up to eight, with anyoneE z guess aaN good aS the next mana concerning the eventual winner.
 If Ruth M. Mac should win the rich purse, 1t will be Q story of one of the greatest comcbacks in history. This chestnut daughter of MT. Me- EiWyn, owned by Coldstroam Stud, Lexington, Ky, and driven by rom my Berry, completed her two.year- old form last fall by trailing Rosa lind to the wire in 2:03. Shipped to Florida for winter training, Ruth progressed fast.
 She Game Back
 On the return ship to Lexington, however, Ruth M. Mac was 50 seri- ously injured that many trainers scratched her from the list Of l936 contestants. But not Tommy Berry Winner of the 1880 Hambletonian with Hanover's Bertha, Berry ieit he had the makings of another champion in Ruth M. Mac. With careful perseverance the Ally IS now back in top form, as was indicated when she won late last week.
 Esther Hanover, owned py Han over Shoe Farms, Hanover, Pa., ana driven by Henry Thomas, also looms as Q top-fiight candidate today, put she will have to step her fastest to trouncc such highly regarded sisters" as Rosalind, Rosette, Gaiety Mite and Ruth M. Mac.
 The tradition has grown that no driver could ever be expected to win the coveted Hambletonian twice. since in the 10 years of It's life no reinsman has ever come close to accomplishing this feat. But August i2. Hambletonian Day here, IS ex- pected to see this record skid into oblivion.
 Berry, with Ruth M. Mac, may re- neat his 1880 victory. Ben White naS an excellent chance to make # twice with Rosalind; Dr. Parshali. nav.ns as won in 1884, has an excellent cnance to repeat with Craftsman, while Sep paiin who drove Greyhound to vic- torv iast August, will have Ed Las- ater to help him next week.

Giants Also Keep Up Good WOrk-N Y. Yankees
 Sport II, Game Lead
By FRANK MURPHY United Press Stan COFrespondent)

United Press Stan Correspondent
 New York, Aug. 6.-(UP)-The St. Louis Cardinals led the National league pennant chase again today thanks to the batting exploits of John Robert Mize, their 6 foot 2 inch, 200-pound first baseman.
 Mize, 23-year-old rookie who stole the veteran Jim (Ripper) Collins job by his sticking talents, and who overnight has taken the National league batting leadership away from teammate, Joe Medwick, saw to 1t personally yesterday that the Car dinals climbed back into first place for the first time since July l2.
 With the Cardinals playing the Cubs at Chicago before 22000 in the first game of Q crucial four-day series, Johnny drove in four of his teams runs-the first four--as the Cards drew first blood with a e-l victory.
 st. Louis was trailing, 10 in the seventh when Mi2e's single scored Medwick with the tying run. In the next inning with two mates aboard Johnny hit home run to ruin the day for Curt Davis and Cubs. For good measure, Johnny doubled. in another of his trips to bat to give him "S for {" for the day.
 While the Cards and Cubs were battling for the lead, the "dark horse" New York Giants improved their third-place threat position by defeating the Boston Bees, 4-i. The Giants now are only { Ia games behind Chicago.
 Brooklyn defeated Philadelphia, 6"6, and the scheduled Pittsburg. Cincinnati night game was postpon- cd until tonight because Of ra.n.
