CHICAGO, Aug. Is CUP)-The

If this bitterness In tennis circles

their injured charges.
The dress of the players would
undergo a change Turtle neck
sweaters and trunks would supplant
the chain knit sweaters and white
flannel pants. And there would be
a change of refreshments for the
players between sets. Instead of the
usual iced tea or water a keg os
iced beer would stand by the UNI

suck lemons or cube sugar. There
would be a plate of hard boiled
eggs, pretzels, and dill pickles.

Forest Hills and Germantown and
Longwood, with their tea time

change and would let the cham.

result we would have such tourna
ments as Madame Bey's Haro

The national champio II s h p s
would be played in Madison Square
Garden and General John j. Phe-
Ian would recognize only those

My advice to the tennis fathers
if they don't want all these dire
things to happen, is to tell the
players that Lord Fauntleroy, not
Jack Dempsey, is the fellow to pat

Horace Stoneham. owner of the
New York Giants, revealed his
campaign for the rebuilding Of the
Gothamites this week as he loosed
the rubber band about his bank
roll and placed $3.50 600 at the dis
posal of Bill Terry, club manager.
Terry has been authorized TO
dispc-e OF every player on the club
except Joe Moore, Harry Danning,
CLYDE Castlemen, Mel OFT and Carl
Hubbell, if those steps are necess-
ary to groom a WANING club.
Even those players will be traded
if the Giants can secure offers
which viii warrnat their disposal,
according to the latest Sdict of
Stoneham.
Stonehams order to clean house
came as a minor surprise since the
Giants are still rated an cutstand-
ing challenger to the lead OF the
Pittsburgh Pirates in the National
league race.
1t was just year ago this month
that Stoneham made similar
edict. The Giants must be re-
built" he said.
The words had barely been utter
ed when the Giants began to win
ball games. They came out of q
slump, rose from third spot tc
first. Then won the national league
pennant by five full games.

system in mind this season. The
