You have nobody to blame
but yourself if you have a con-
centration Of blooms at one
period. 1t is not at all hard
to extend the summer bloom
ing period to cover a span of
three or even four months.
For earliest spring color you
start the previous fall by plant
ing bulbs like daffodils. Quickly
following these spring flowers
are perennials like alySsum
saxatile and candytuft semper-
virens. These are followed by
somewhat later perennials like
penstemon. or tritoma, by the
quickest ANIMALS like alySsum
and annual candytuft. and by
the petunias you started early
indoors. Then come the zinnias
and a number of other favorite
ANIMALS in midsummer and
early fall, with the latest Afri-
can marigolds and chrysan-
themums closing the season.

How Can One Plan
AII-Summer Bloom?

bloom when they are subjected
to a certain length day, and
early planting will therefore
not hurry the blooms, although
it does encourage larger plants
and more flowers when they do
bloom. Others are indifferent
to day length and will bloom
whenever the plants are large
enough.
A further method of extend
ing blooming periods of the
flowers in your garden is to
remove withered flowers. When
a plant has bloomed freely and
has begun to produce seed it
spends its energy in the seed
production instead of further
bloom. Removing the old flower
heads encourages the plant to
bloom because no seed crop is
being formed.
Pruning Aids Some
Some kinds, like snapdragon,
alyssum and petunia profit
from very heavy pruning after
the plants have passed their
! peak, for they will then make a
fresh. new plant and go through
another blooming cycle. In the
case of petunias in a mixed
! flower border it is good practice
to cut back a few plants while
others are left in bloom IN
order to have fresh growth
coming on steadily for the
future.
So start some petunias right
away, mix perennial and an
nusl flowers in your beds, plant
various kinds Of flowers, put
some in later than others. and
cut out old blooms, and there
you are, all set for a full sum-
mer of bloom instead of Just
the two weeks you are away
from home.

but there was no personal re-
ward unless it was in the salts
faction of doing a good job
or debating his earned run
average a bit to 3.61.
At this point Ramos could
require more concrete evidence
that he is appreciated. His
record reads 40, but with no
stretching of the imagination
he could be the sensation of
baseball with a 1872 record.
That's what he'd be displaying
II the Senators had provided
him four runs a game.
It's automatic to reward the
20-game winner, the $50 hitter
or the .slugger of 40 home runs.
It's time recognition was
made of Ramos superb but
often luckless efforts. The
record is bad, but the pitch
ing has been good. He merits
a raise, right now. A new con-
tract at this point could make
Pedro aware that there's more
to the game than luck, and that
a hard-working, ever-eager,
game competitor also is a
tremendous asset.

It's ironic that the pitcher
who starts the uprising seldom
is warned. Terry's head-high
pitch was more dangerous than
the swift one which made Mic
key vince. but Terry wasn't
admonished. The Senators had
their choice of submitting to
more such treatment, perhaps,
or serving a quick warning that
they weren't to be considered
sitting ducks.
Ramos, over the long haul,
probably provided insurance
for the Senator'S hitters. They
won't be subjected to as many
busters if the opposition knows
1t will be diving for dirt in res
ponse to such tactics. Turning
the other cheek may be the ad-

but not in baseball.
Terry selected poor target

has disturbed few pitchers.
Terry wasn't in a jam, had
famed four of the first seven
batters to face him and owned
a 20 lead when he decked the
Senator'S lead-off man in the
third inning. Terry's timing was
atrocious, serving only to agi-
tate the Senator'S adrenalin
and wake them up.

Open Tennis
Advocates Will
Renew Efforts

PARIS, July Z (AP).-Busi-
ness goes on as usual in the
tennis world next year-with
the professionals working one
side of the street and the anna
teurs the other.
There will be no mixing, ex-
cept as Jack Kramer may
scramble the field by enticing
some of the better amateurs
into his professional fold.
The prospect of open tourna-
ments. pitting the pros against
the amateurs, was battered
down yesterday by the smaller
nations in the international
Lawn Tennis Federation.
Advocates Stunned
Proponents of the idea, who
we're sure they had enough votes
for acceptance, were stunned.
Unofficial reports said some
strong supporters were so sure
of victory they slipped out of
the meeting before the vote,
feeling that their help was not
needed.
All of the big tennis nations
Australia. Great Britain, France
and the United States-voted in
favor. In fact, open tourna-
ments got a big maj in the
voting. but the 1874 to rs tally
was six votes short of the re-
quired two-thirds.
The question is certain to be
raised at the next annual meet
ing of the International Fed
Grafton in Stockholm next July.
But the first open tournaments
cannot be held before 1892
even If next years meeting
gives the green light.
Kramer, who speaks for the
pros as president of their as
sociation, was disappointed by
the outcome Of the meeting.
There's not much I can do" f"
Kramer said. III just continue
on my own program with re-
doubled effort"
Part Of Kramer's program
obviously is to get new blood
and new faces for his profess
sional tours. He said that he
has his eyes on Nicola Pietran-
geli Of italy and Andres Gi-
memo Of Spain and has offered
each Of them "in excess of
sac. .000."
Seeking Controls
Jean Borotra Of France, the
old tennis star and new presi-
dent Of the international Fed
Grafton, is pushing the author
lied player idea. He says that
it would take some of the pres
ent-day hypocrisy out of tennis
amateurism. Everyone knows
that amateur players receive
money, he says, so the best
thing is to legalize it and con-
troll it.
Unoficial reports said the
following countries supported
open tournaments: United
States, Great Britain, Australia.
France, Italy. Germany, vene-
zuela, New Zealand, Brazil,
Austria, Belgium, Canada.
South Africa, Monaco, Greece,
Japan, Holland and Morocco.
The following countries were
reported to have voted against: I:
Norway, Sweden, Denmark,
Finland, Argentina. Mexico,
Ireland, Switzerland, Czecho-
slovakia, Turkey, Egypt, Spain,
Israel, Lebanon and Poland.
Countries have varying num-
bers Of votes according to their
tennis strength. The United
States, Great Bitain, Australia
and France, for example, have
~ votes each.
Russia, Bulgaria, Romania,
Yugoslavia, Portugal and Lux
embourg were reported to have
abstained.
