National Tennis Chmapion Bobby
Riggs of Chicago would lose his title
in another year.
Here to play Don Bulge in the
feature singles match in a pro ten
mis- exhibition for the benefit of the
Finnish Relief Fund Sunday night,
Tilden castigated the three ranking
young tennis players and nomnateG
an almost unknown young Califol-
Man for the National throne.
II know Riggs plans to win the
National title three times and Their
retire." Tilden said, "but I don't
believe he can do it. He has fine
head and great pair of legs but he
hasn't got the strokes or the all
around game to hold the title for
two more years. A great player?
No-definitely not! Just the best Of
second-grade crop"
Tilden, At and apparently in top
physical condition, was just as sure
in his choice of Riggs successor.
Likes Schroeder
"When you look around for s.ne-
one to relieve Riggs, cast an eye on
Ted Schroeder out on the west
coast" he advised. There's kid
with power all the way. What's
more, his game is backed up by a
sound defense. He may not win the
title this year, but he's coming fast
and should be ready to beat any
amateur in the country in a couple
Of seasons"
He was referring to National
Junior Champion Frederick r.
Schroeder, Jr., who climbed from
eighth in Southern California Jun
ior rankings to the country's top
Junior last year. He will be 10 in
August and thus ineligible for the
1910 Juniors.
But what about Welby Van Horn
his way into the National finals at
another Californian, who blasted
Forest Hills last year to be beaten
by Riggs?
EgOtiStical?
Sure, he's got great possibilities, u
Tilden said. "But-I'm afraid last
years praise only contributed to
this years ego. He appears to fee.
1t an insult when anybody gives
him tough game or refuses to be
blown off the court by blasts from
the great Horn. He hasn't done a
thing worth talking about since the
Nationals He's slugger and agree
that his game might rise to great
heights. But he has lots to learn
and he's got to get back to earth
before he gets anywhere. Then again
he has no semblaEce of a defense ,
Tilden sounded off on Don Me-
Neill, the Oklahoma City youngster
who defeated Riggs last summer III

ships.
/ MCNEIL will hit almost as many
bad balls as good Ones" he said
THAT may be all right for Joe
Medwick but you can't win in ten
mis- that way. When he learns moi
to bat everything that comes ovel
the net, he'll be dangerous"
What about his own plans?
well, old grams has no intention
of retiring" he replied, with wink
II can still hold most of 'em off for
set or two"
