BY BILL DISMER, JR.

w YITH the promise Of even
M greater reward than the
Wv distinction of being crowned
junior and boy champions
of the city, tennis youngsters were
expected to 60 about their play In the
City Of Washington tournament, spon-
sored by The Star, with even greater
enthusiasm at the Edgemoor Club
today.
Unknown to many of the young
competitors who participated in the
first round of play yesterday, Col.
John McClintock, chairman Of the
national interscholastic championship
committee of the U. S. L. T. A., will
continue to be an interested observer
Of the activities at Edgemoor, and his
announcement of greater opportuni-
ties awaiting the winners and semi
finalists greatly enhanced the already
high value of the competition.
According to the colonel, winners
and semi-finalists of the current tour
nament not only will be eligible to
compete in the Middle Atlantic cham

EVEN though they do not reach the
finals in the qualifying tourna-
ment, their success at Edgemoor will
make them eligible to go to Culver.
Players going on the latter basis
would be forced to bear their own ex-
penSe only to and from the scene of
the national tourney, being taken
care of by U. S. L. T. A. officials while
spending the week there.
In addition to this opportunity for
national fame, the Colonel assured this
reporter that winners and runners up
Of both junior and boys tournaments
would receive medals from the U. s.
L. T. A.
Today, while the kids entered upon
their second round of activity, one
other phase of the city tournament was
to be brought to a close with the cham
pionship match of the mixed doubles
division, the first mixed doubles title
that will have been bestowed here in
nearly five years.
At time to be arranged by the fair
members of the quartet, who are en-
gagged in the District of Columbia

Country Club, the husband and wife
team of Capt. and Mrs. Stanley K.
Robinson were to take the court against
Edith Clarke and Tom Markey, all

Incidentally, both Miss Cootes and
Miss Clarke have been forced to

THREE PREFER
U.S.. POSITIONS
TO 'GLAM0R'

Serious activities outweigh ca
reerS that are more glamorous
but less certain, in the opinion OF
three very attractive and well
known feminine employees of the
Government stationed in the Dis
trict.
Blanche Gottschalk, Of Inter
state Commerce Commission;
Ethel Freedman, Of Farm Credit
Administration, and Dolly Ger
trude Orgel, of the Treasury, all
chose the Government as q life
time work in preference to pro
fessional dancing, musical careers
or other enticing goals which they
might have pursued.
And having achieved success
since making their choices, they
declare themselves satisfied.
Miss Orgel, when she was at
home in New York city studying
at Wadleigh High School and in
the evening classes of New York
City College, was advised by he1
friends to study dancing and
adopt the stage as her profession
because of her unmistakable
talent.
She preferred the steadiness OF
a business career, however, and
after graduation came to Wash
ington three years ago and OBJ,
tanned q stenographic position
with the Treasury Departments
Division Of Insolvent National
Banks.
Ambitious, she is now studying
the Stenotype machine, a con-
trivance which promises to rev.
olutionize stenography with me-
chanical method Of shorthand that
enables even tyroS to achieve a
speed Of more than 800 words per
minute, and when she concludes
this course she plans to begin the
study Of law and seek admittance
to the District of Columbia Bar.
Meanwhile she enjoys music,
likes to dance and read, and in
cludes tennis, golf, bicycling, horse
back riding and ping pong among
favorite sports. She doesn't like
bridge, however, and would swim,
she says, if she knew how.
Ethel Freedman Of FCA might
have become either a concert pian-
ist or perhaps a teacher If she
hadn't won a tipping contest given
two years ago by q local firm while
she was working for the War De-
partment. That decided her, and
since then she has transferred to
a position as stenographer with
Farm Credit and declares her main
ambition is to achieve "high de-
gree of speed" at her chosen trade.
From Charleston, w. Va, Miss
Freedman attended high school in
Charleston, s. c., and Watertown,
N. Y, and has resided in Washing
ton four years. Both ballroom and
classical dancing are among her
hobbies, as are music, hiking and
tennis.
Mrs. Blanche GottSchalk, the
third Of the three friends, left the
rare book" business to become a
Government employe, and her
principal regret is that her former
activity enabled her to meet many
interesting folk in New York,
where her store was located.
Among her former acquaintan-
ces are Harry HirShfield, the car
toonist, Tom Brown, of the screen,
Don Barclay of the stage, Beth
Brown, authoress, and Bill Tilden,
famous tennis player.

so badly.
JACK spent many hours with Jerry
during the days that followed. but,
although she tried many times, she
could not bring herself to tell him
what she had overheard. Frequently
she asked the nurses and doctors con-
corning her condition, but she did not
try again to ask the question nearest
her heart. Partly because now she
was afraid they would not tell her the
truth; and partly because she was
afraid they might tell her definitely,
irrevocably, that she did not have a
chance to recover. Nancy did not
come to Sc her and. In answer to Jer-
rvs question, Jack replied that she
was not yet sufficiently recovered from
the accident to be out of bed.
Then gradually Jacks visits became
less frequent. Jerry, inwardly tor
tured by the thought that perhaps the
doctor had told him that she would
never be well again, that he was
merely trying to make the final break
of easier, could not bring herself to
comment on his increasing absences.
Finally, an entire week passed and he
did not come, but instead, with the
usual flowers, there was a note which
she opened with trembling fingers.
"Jerry-Nancy and I are engaged to
be married. Try to forgive me-Jack "
EOR long moment Jerry gazed at
the writing which danced before
her eyes. 1t was impossible to con-
ceive that Jack would not come again.
1t was impossible to believe that
she would never be walking to meet
him again, her heart glad with the
though that they would soon be to-
gether. All during the six weeks in
the hospital she had been afraid that
this might happen. In her heart she
did not blame him, but she felt the
actual realization of her fears was
more than she could bear.
Then suddenly-and Jerry could not
believe that she was not dreaming
Jack was in the room. had seized the
letter from her hands and was holding
her in his arms. Some minutes later
he was saying.
You see, dear. they wouldn't let
me tell you before because they
thought the shock might retard your
own recovery, but Nancy will never
walk again. I felt that it was all my
fault and I thought that perhaps I
could make up to her in some small
measure for the harm I had caused
by marrying her and taking care Of
her now that she will be helpless.
But she was far wiser than I. She
knew that We both would be misear-
able. So here am, Jerry, If you
want me-"
