YOUTH IN TENNIS.
By Lillian RIXEY

District tennis fans could have
gone to sleep for four days and
on awakening today, would hardly
have been surprised to find that
with the exception of Tom Man
gan, all of the seeded players in
the District of Columbia tennis
championship at Columbia Coun
try Club had found a berth in
the quarter.final round. Ray
Stocklinski is the only non-seeded
player to survive.
Another notable thing about
the current tournament is that
age has refused to let youth be
served. All three of the Wash
ington members of the Junior
Davis Cup squad have been elm
mated from competition. David
johnson. aged II, was put out IN
the fourth round by Hugh Lynch
while Buddy Adair, 20, and De
witt Smith, IT. were retired by
Stanley Robinson and Dooly
Mitchell, respectively.
Today's matches, scheduled to
start at 4 p. M, will furnish good
tennis and perhaps some upsets
Most hotly contested matches will
be between Hugh Lynch and Stan.
ley Robinson: Dooly Mitchell and
Jimmy Farrin, and Bill Breese and
Tony Latona.
FAIR PARTNER FOUND
Rumor has it that handsome Bill
Breese, who wears African lion
hunters shorts and sports a Har'
ward accent, has finally received
an offer of mixed doubles part
ner. His specifications were that
the lady should be blonde and
beauteous even if she couldn't hold
a racket. The lady has beer
found, and although her name is
a guarded secret, she is said tt
WELD a racket effectively in her
left hand. They should be well
matched. for Bill Breese is 6
southpaw. too.
| Dooly Mitchell played two
matches yesterday in order tc
catch up with the rest of the
tournament and came so neal
wearing himself out that he almost
dropped his second match against
Dewitt Smith. The young Davis
Cup Junior is brilliant but erratic
He forced Dooly Mitchell to 6
1913 second set which was full O.
long-winded rallies and deuce
games. If he had managed tt
smash through the Mitchell con
sistency and take that second set
he undoubtedly would have de
throned star in the third.
