A long time ago, somebody
made up a song about a bear
going over the mountain to
zee what he could see. The
only thing he saw was the other
side of the mountain. It is in
ferred in the song that the
other side of the mountain look
ed lust about like the first side
did.
So, when Pauline Betz and
Mrs. Sarah Cooke were toss

Lawn Tennis association for
looking at the other side OF the
mountain - professionalism

She asked very honestly,

person become a professional?

while 49,. ?"
Well might Miss Betz ask
that question. From where she
stood, one side of the noun
tain looked just about the same
as the other. The professional
side looked just about the same
as the amateur side.
