Open Tennis Won't Poison
Sport at Its Roots.

Open tennis is not going to poison
the roots of this merry and wide
spread pastime as a game. Men
and women who can play it well
enough to be paid for it always
will be few and far between. Just
now we are not considering the
recreational side of tennis, for that
will remain unaffected. We are con-
sidering the public spectacle side,
which the U. S. L. T. A. always has
exploited.
People want to see and read of
the best tennis players in action.
Obviously, that constitutes profess
sional sport. If most of the best
players become professional in the
long run, as in golf, so. much the
better. 1t will do away with the
grotesque institution of the tennis
bum"

Gregg Manning, Miami, was OPEN
ing-day leader in the Cat Cay tuna
tournament, but was relegated to
second position on the second day
by Steve Bancroft of Hollywood,
Manilas and points west. Steve is
the Pan-American pilot of the
China Clipper, INDUCING in his IA
vorite sport.
His catch of three fish brought
his total score to 28,070 points and
the lead, which he lost on the third
day, only to regain it on the fourth.
Charles o. Holm of Detroit moved
into second place, with Manning
holding the show position.
Experience Tells in End.
Luck counts lot in any kind Of
fishing. The first timer often catches
more fish than any one else. Abil-
ity counts over long stretch, how
ever, and the angler who knows the
game is the one who brings them
in day after day. There is third
factor in the brand of fishing en-
countered in the Cat Cay tourna-
ment that is more important than
either luck or ability. That is the
guide. He must outguess the fish
and keep the angler on them and
after they are hooked, more often
than not, boat them green. We
rate the three in about the proper
ton of 10 for luck, 10 for ability
and 80 for the guide
We know most of the top-notch
guides along the Atlantic Coast and
We believe Capt. Tom Clifford Is as
good as any. And Tommy is Steve
Bancroft's guide, fishing from Mrs.
Marion Hasler's Stormy Petrol,
32-foot Prigg built especially for
this fishing. So it is little wonder
this team is in front.
In the Singapore pool on the
tournament, top price for the con-
testants was $3.50. That amount
was paid for Julio and Thorvald
Sanchez and William D. Pawley.
Low bid was $42. The pool totaled
S6,496. Any contestant is permitted
to buy so per cent of himself.
Holder of the winning ticket draws
so per cent, second place takes 80
and third place. 10.
High lights of the fishing include
Bancroft's 500 and 401 Founders ia
ken on 24-thread line Cthe first ever
taken on light tackle was just two
weeks ago.. Fri Roman, out for
pictures for his paper, caught a
428-pounder on the lure the captain
dropped overheard. The skipper
handed him the rod just moment
before the strike. Roman boated the
fish in so minutes Mike Lerner, on
a visit to Cat Cay from Bimini,
caught one on the way down and
repeated the performance on the
way back.
Browns Hurt Fishing.
There are brown trout in the Old
Dominion, but they are not stocked
by the Commission of Inland Fish
cries because it is convinced stock
ing of browns in Virginia waters
would make poorer instead of bet
ter fishing. For confirmation they
point to the history of such a
planting made 20 years ago in Mill
Creek near Blacksburg.
1t appears that the browns be-
come established without trouble,
but the brooks and rainbows, for
merly plentiful IN the stream. have

SERIOUS STUAII0N E,

Australians Also Engaged on One Flank, Infliefing
 Heavy losses

ATHENS, April 17--The British and Greek forces are engaged in a fierce battle late this afternoon with German mechanized units on new line in the Kalabaka Region on the Grecian front, the outcome of which is expected to prove decisive.
 Kalabaka is some 90 miles within Greece and near the center of the Allied defense line and the railhead gateway to the lpwlandS.
 Late afternoon reports said the Allied defense lines are holding steady but reliable informants make no effort to minimize the seriousness of the situation.
 On the northeast section of the defense line, Australian troops are reported to be holding the line in tact against furious German as- saults.
 One vicious battle is also reported late today as raging at the entrance of Sarandaporon Pass near Serria and the Australians are also there and reported inflicting heavy losses on the Germans.
