WILLIS E. DAVIS, STAR
ON COURTS, LOOKED TO
FIGURE IN TITLE PLAY
Young Pennsylvania Uni
versity Tennis Player
May Enter Intercollegi
ate Contest National
Tourney's New Rule.
The absence of Willis E. Davis from
lawn tennis competition In Philadelphia
and vicinity during the last month or
two has been the source of much regret
to tennis enthusiasts. Davis, who played
No. 1 on the Philadelphia Cricket Club's
team in tho Intorclub Tennis League
matches last spring, then a freshman at
tho University of Pennsylvania, was
spending his first year away from his
homo In sunny California, hence was
anxious to return Immediately after the
close of tho scholastic year.
It la hopM that Davis will return East
In time to take part In tho Intercollegiate
Lawn Tennis Championship at Merlon,
during the week of September 18. Since
Wallace F. Johnson won the Intercollegi
ate singles title In 1800 tho Bed and Ulut
han been without a serious contender tor
lawn tennis supremacy. In Davis It has
a likely winner. It will be remembered
that Davis forced National Champion
B. Norris Williams to two hard sets at
8-p, 6-4 carjy In tho year In a match be
tween Harvard and tho Philadelphia
Cricket Club on the dirt courts at St
Martin's.
Since then it Is safe to presume that
Davis has improved, and perhaps devel
oped strength in his back-court game.
Ho is t)ie possessor of a corking service,
and even other phase of hla game, with
the exception ot the base line. Is hlgft
class.
On his opponents' service Davis wastes
little tlmo In futile rallying, but plays
for a clean ace or a miss on the first re
turn, trusting eventually to break
through. When backed by a otrong all
around game, and a service of dazzling
speed, this type of tennis la almoBt un
beatable. a
Tho recent announcement of the na
tional all-comers' tournament, that will
be held at the West Side Lawn Tennis
Club beginning August 30, must have
riled some of the local authorities (used
advisedly), who were strongly In favor
of moving this ovent from Newport to
Forest Hills, D.. I. The principal argu
ment was to the effect that Forest Hills
was much more convenient to Philadel
phia than Newport, thereforo a greater
number of Philadelphia stars (also used
advisedly) would be able to play.
But at the West Side the national event
will be less an all-comers' tournament
than herotofore. In tho first place, tha
entrance fee has been raised to ?S, and in
the second place club secretaries, through
whom entries must be made, are warned
not to forward the name of any player
who would be other than a serious con
tender. That lets out all but a mero
handful of Phlladelphians, and that hand
ful would enter even If the tournament
were to be played at Newport.
The little stunt of the National Com
mittee does away ulth one of the evlla
connected with tournament tennis. It has
been the custom for players who know
they hjive absolutely no chance to enter
tournaments merely for the sake of hav
ing club privileges for tho week.
Those who have been advocating Forest
Hills for the benefit ot Phlladelphians had
this Idea In mind, for by paying the en
trance fee, and either defaulting or
losing In the first round, tha players will
have the privilege of witnessing tho
matches during the remainder of the
tournament without additional expense.
Now they will have to pay for that priv
ilege. MACK'S COLLEGE STAR

AFTER SEVERE INJURY "GIL" NICHOLLS
CAME BACK TO HIS OWN AT GOLF
Local Playdrs Won Play-off for Metropolitan Title With a Great
Score McDermotVs Showing Has Been
Highly Disappointing.
After an automobtle smash llttlo more
than a year ago, which tt was thought
might cost him his life, or at best further
participation In golf tournaments. Gilbert
Nlcholls, of this city, has como back this
year and, after worrying the loaders al
Daltusrol In tho open championships, won
the Metropolitan tltlo at Fox Hills on Sat
urday with a handsome card of 73, In a
play-off with Robert O McDonald, of
Buffalo, who took 78. A hugo gallery
watched tho play.
Because of the terrible strain ot dajs
of medal play, neither golfer was very
steady on tho fifth and final round Sat
urday, but Nlcholls, waiting with his
old hunger for the "in" turn, tore homo
with, his old-time fervor with a 31, five
strokes in tho lead of his opponant. On
Thursday, after a 39 going out, Nichols
came homo in a frantic 33, which uhowB
the sort of golf he Is playing, 71, 72, 73,
74 and a "miserable" 76, represent his
rounds' In the tournament, and It Is a
proposition to beat rounds of this kind.
Disappointment ias evident on all sides
at the showing of John J. McDermott.
This was one of his few appearances since
the Shawnee Incident, and when Jack was
able to turn oft a brilliant 71 In the first
round, it Is safe to Bay that nearly every
real golf fan waa pulling for htm to w.ln
But he failed to get under 300. McDer
mott Is considered tho greatest soiling
machno ever produced in thfs country
and his Bremature drop the worst misfor
tune American golfing has ever suffered
Another local golfer Mho was in the
limelight at Fox Hflls, was James M
Barnes, Whltemarsh Valley. He finished
among tho prize winners, and would have
tied the winners If he could have turned
off a final round as fast as his previous
round He started the afternoon In
fourth place, only two strokes back of
Nlcholls and Hagen, who were tied for
first, but Barnes met much misfortune
and got a 78 He Is expected to play at
Shawneo this week and his tall form will
no doubt be seen stalking along Just a

bit In front of tho -field when the last
lap rolls 'round.
A general exodus of the real, golfing
talent from this city, both amateur and
professional, ts expected to begin tomor
row. Their destination Is the Shawneo
Country Club, at Shawnee-on-the-Dela-ware.
Beginning Wednesday, tho annual
tournamont for tho open and amateur
championship of the Pennsylvala Golf
Association will bo held there. On that
day the 36-holo medal play for tho open
title will tako plnco, while on Thursdny
the amateurs will endeavor to qualify
In 36 holes. On succeeding days ot tho
week there will bo match play for tho
championship title. Entries for all events
close today.
The unfortunate conflict In dates with
the above tournament ts expected to de
tract somowhat from the brilliancy of
tho field which will compete In tho St.
David's Golf Club Invitation tournament
beginning Thursday. But for nil that,
plenty of life and speed are assured from
tho number and class of the entries re
ceived by Weston J. Hlbbs, chnlrman of
tho committee. He has announced that 20
trophies will be given. There will also
be a medal for the lowest score In the
qualifying round. There will be five sK
teena, necessitating SO entries. So that
there Is a chance for nearly all to play
three days Ten prizes will bo awarded
the winners and runners-up In the 16s and
10 more prizes will bo awarded the win
ners and runners-up In each of tho de
feated eights
This plan Is similar to the one In the
tournament of Harold A. Sands, where
every one qualified and then had a fine
time putting each other out of the run
ning in match play.
"The most likely lad I've had under my
wing." said Jack Campbell, professional
at tho Old York Road Country Club, "is
John P. MaoBean, Jr., without a doubt
MacBean 1b a born athlete, but I have
never seen any one take, up a game and
succeed so quickly In it as he has in golf.
"A little over a year ago, MacBean
came to me for Instruction. He had never
oven had a club In bis hand. And In a
short time he dropped under 90 till he waa
