OFFICIAL RANKING" OF LAWN TENNIS PLAYERS NOT GOOD FOR DEVELOPMENT
10
p
HANDICAPPING HELPS LAWN
TENNIS AS MUCH AS OFFICIAL
RANKING INJURES THE GAME
G. T. Adee, New President of United States
Lawn Tennis Association, Has Chance
to Make a Popular Move
THE atorm of protest from many sections of the country when Mnurico
EJ. MoLoiiKhlln was ranked above It. Karris Williams, 2d, In 1!I4, and when
William Johnston was placed above Williams and McLoimhlln In IMG, Is In
itself sufficient proof of the futility of ofllclal ranking by a. committed appointed
for that purposo by the United .States Katlonal I.awn Tennis Association, Hut
tfcero Is another even greater reason why this foolish ofllclal action should bo
stopped It Is absolutely purposeless.
If the committee would rank players In groups for the purpose of handi
capping them In sanctioned tournaments, there would not otdy ho Justification
for It, but it would give lawn tcnnU n far greater Impetus than It hos loeolved
in years.
Thcfo can bo no adequate reason advanced why writers should not oxpress
their opinions of the rclatlvo ability of the country's leading tennis players,
nor Is there any reason why newspapers and other periodicals should not nctu
nily have them ranked. Hut there is no excuse whatsoever for tho present sys
tem of brutally ranking players, thereby engendering hard feeling, for tho solo
purposo of printing their names In the ofllclal lawn tennis guide,
New Regime Hns Chance to Correct Krrnrs
Georgo T. Adee, recently elected president of tho tl. S. K. 1. T. A., to succeed
It. V. Wrcnn, now has tho opportunity to do something worth while. Tlnough
bis Influence thero Is no doubt that tho association could bo muito to see that
official ranking should be sloppntl, In so far as It applies to nothing more than
tho mere grading of playeri, and another method substituted which would rank
ton or a dozen of tho best raeiplctets with tho heaviest handicap, and so on
down.
Beforo going Into detail on the benefits that woidd nccruo to players and
the game Itself If handicaps were In vogue In all tournaments except the national
annual meeting. It is well to look over tho field of sports and see what other
branches have done In tho matter of rani: ng. It doesn't take long to see that
tennis Is tho only game In which tho participants are tanked without purpn.te
Ty Cobb may be considered the best baseball player In the world, Kddle Muhn.i
may bo adjudged the peer of football players, .Jerome Travers Is considered by
many tho best golfer In the country, Howard Orew tho best sprinter, etc., hut
nono of these men has been nor can ho bo officially declared better than his
rival.
No Official Hanking in Other Sports
Wo have champions in h.ueball, golf and other sports, but they are so
declared on the actual result of one or more competitive events, and not set
on n pedestal by a committee. In tennis tho winner or the national tournament.
it is true. Is looked upon as the champion of the United States, and Justly so,
but ho should not by any chanco be officially removed from the position he has
won on the mero opinion of Walter Merrill Hall, V. C. Intnan and Georgo Adee,
or any other group of men, no matter how excellent their Judgment may bo.
In short, tho winner of the national tournament should bo tho only officially
ranked player In tho country. ecept, as mentioned beforo, for the purpose of
handicapping. It would bo Imposslblo to rank more than one player, according
to thl3 system, because tho runner-up often gets Into the finals through luck In
tho draw.
It has been stated in some quarters that the winner of the all-comers is
not necessarily the best pHyer In the country; that thero aro some who did
not participate in tho tournament that aro better than the national victor. That
may bo true, but the only way to have a champion is to hnvo a championship
tournament, nnd If there aro good players who are not able to participate, it Is
their misfortune and nothing more.
Benefits of a Handicap in Lawn Tennis
At one time tho Hanking Committee, of tho I. S. K. I.,. T. A. did figure
out the handicaps for their ranking p!aers. This, however, has not been done
recently. If the committee would cease Its efforts to pick the one best, second
best, etc., and chooso them In groups of ten or n. dozen, nft'ixlng proper handi
caps and compelling the players to give these handicaps in all sanctioned tourna
ments except tho all-comers, untold good would result.
One of tho worst features of holding tournaments without handicaps Is
that it gives the so-called "Cup Hunters" a chance to keep winning various tro
phies year after year. There Is no reason why a player of somewhat less ability
should not bo encouraged with victory occasionally, and tho only w.y to accom
plish this end Is by the handicap system.
For years ono of tho most successful annual international tournaments
held was conducted on the Hlvleru by the Nice Lawn Tennis Club. These tourna
ments were handicap affairs, nnd for this reason thero was always a large and
hlgh-grado entry list, and a lot of enthusiasm among the spectators and fol
lowers of tho gamo.
Helps in Developing Players' Skill
For actual development, too. thero Is nothing better than handicap play.
When a champion meets a "dub," both at scratch, tho "dub" Is beaten beforo
ho begins and does not always put up tho tight he might inako if ho were given
a few points. By tho same token the champion's play is likely to bo very poor,
because he knows that his opponent has no chanco when playing with him
on even terms. This hurts tho gamo of the expert and fails to help the poorer
player, whilo a handicap would keep the former "on his toes" all the time and
would Impel the latter to use every ounco of his energy and all of his skill to
win.
In fine. It Is hoped by hundreds of players and tennis followers that the new
XJ. S. K. L. T. A. president. George T, Adee, will attempt to "fire" himself from
the Banking Committee and get a position with tho handicappers Instead,
Couldn't Play the Movies and Basketball Too
Over m Plainileld there Isn't any basketball team at Leal's school. Whilo
this is not such a severo blow to Philadelphia cage followers, it is tough on
Plalnfleld's faithful rooters. And the worst of It Is that it Is entirely tho fault
of the players themselves. Ccach Charley Wardlaw did a little Sherlock Holmes
lng on side and discovered that moving pictures were responsible for tho poor
"eyework" of his proteges on the basketball floor.
"It Just comes down to this," said tho coach to tho young men, "you'll cither
have to give up Mary Plekford and Charley Chaplin or basketball. Geraldlne
Farrar may be all right in Carmen, but that doesn't win any games for us.
Take your choice."
The team disbanded.
Lon Jourdet'a Stand Is Correct
Coach Lon Jourdet, of tho Penn basketball team, has, declared that he will not
permit his men to play a post-season scries with the Princeton Tigers to break
the tie for the intercollegiate championship. Jourdet is perfectly correct, for
the reason that tho officials of the league postponed these games too long.
It was ovident come time ago that Princeton might tie Penn. Thnt was tho
time for the league to uct. If they had made out n tentative schedule, for the
cames to be played in case a tie did result, Penn would not want to abandon
the chance to win' tho title from the Tigers. Hut no such action was taken,
Penn has been out of training some time and it would not be fair to make them
begin again and possibly continue for two or three weeks.
As usual, Jourdet wins.
Larry Chappelle. one of the biggest baseball failures In the country, will
have a trial with the Cleveland Indians. This Is Larry's third attempt to make
good In the majors. He had trial3 with the White Sox In 131J and 191S. It may
take this time,
Writers are deploring the fact that Willard makes more in one fight than
Ty Cobb, Hans Wagner and other baseball players make in yeurs. That Is true,
but jt is also Just as true that WHIard is not a perennial athletic plant as some
cf these diamond stars aro.
&
It Is sincerely hoped by tho Philadelphia sports followers that the Falr
mount Park races will bo resumed. Ko better boost for the Quaker City nor for
local sports could be offered than this great event, which netted Philadelphia
charities big sums annually.

No. .1 Francis Ouimet
HOW did It hnpiien that Krancls
Ouimet, who was only an ordinary
Bil for up to 1913 cntno forward with
siioli amnzini; swiftness? Xot even Oui
met himself can explain the sudden rise
to fame. In mil he tried to qualify In
the amateur championships and failed.
In 1312. at Clilc'iprn, he tried afialn and
failed . And then suddenly a new star
had risen In the Kolflns sky.
The first time we ever saw Ouimet
was at Harden City, September. 1013,
when the ouallfylns lotind of tho ama
teur championship was under way. Ho
had just holed out on the 18th Kreon
when Romo one asked his score. "Seventy
five." replied Oulmcl quietly. Which
started an outbreak of excitement, as
"fi wns then low by neieral strokos. And
that this start was no flash was proven
two days later when ho led Jerry Travels,
then amateur champion, throiiRh tho 27th
hole. Two weeks later Ouimet, who had
never even thmiRht of the open cham
pionship, had beaten Vnrdon and lt.iy
in the greatest exhibition of golf ever
Riven In America.
Heyond the Dope
"How did I hnnnen to trot crnlm? ko
suddenly?" said Ouimet to our query.
"I haven't an Idea All I know Is that
In playlntj over my home courso at Wood
land my best mark was 78. I average
about 81 nr 82, and could rarely beat this
Then one day I went out in tho summer
nf 1013 and had a 7.1, tho courto record
then. After that I rarely Rot above 77.
and was Renerally around 71 to 7B. Mv
Kame seemed to have come to mo in one
day."
It has been said frequently that Ouimet
Is a Rnlfer without nerves that he Is
never upset .VothliiR In it. There is no
such Rolfer in existence. There never
was. Ouimet uenlnst Vardon nnd Ilay
wns absolutely cool nnd niunrnnilr in.
different. lint two weeks before, against
Travels, ho had shown more than one
sign of nervousness when Jerry hepan
laying thoso full Iron shots dead, and
when Francis made his trip abroad in ills
first competition he was so nervous ho al
most missed the first ball, batting It at
right angles on the ground through the
crowd. And later on, against Travers,
at Kkowanok, when Ouimet became ama
teur chnmplon. In hln first 12 holes ho was
so nervous ho could hardly sink a putt,
missing several short ones and frequent
ly taking 3 on the green.
Rip; Advantage
Xot thnt Ouimet Is a nervous type. He
simply has nerves, Just as any other mor
tal has when tjdngs are not working
right.
Dut lie also has this advantage. Ho
never lets his temper get the best of him,
and you never seo him fretting or worry
ing over a bad shot As much as any
other golfer we ever saw Ouimet takes
the break of the game as It comes to him.
He doesn't always expect to get a perfect
lie nor to havi all putts go down, so he is
well fixed whfcn the tldo turns the other
way psychologically.
Travis leads all American amateurs
in direction. with any club and In l-ylng
lung approach putts dead. Travers leads
all In drlrlng Iron play and In putting
within 10 or 12.feet up to the cup. Ouimet.
all In all, Is the best American amateur
with the wood that Is, not only off the
tee, but In brasslo play through the
green. Ho is a wonder at getting up a
brasslo shot from a close He when distance
Is needed and he must take a chance.
He has the knack of taking just a nip
of turf with his brassle, and he plays it
with a confidence that no one else has this
side of the Atlantic divide.
Ouimet is ono of the few btar golfers
Who Ube the Interlnelclno, ftl,u ,l.n u
overlapping grip. In his wooden club nlay
..- .ou a.u.ma tinier away from tne ball
than moat others, reaching out for the
blow.
On short approaching or putting you
will find him nearly always beyond the
pin, rarely short.
Last summer at Petroit he was drawn J
against Chick ICvans In tho i:nst-Wcst
competition. Chick had the best of It In
that battle up to within 20 yards of the
gtecn Hut It was notlceablo on thu ma-
.jiulty of occasions that where Chick was
short on his approaches, and, as a rule,
short on ills long putts, Ouimet was prac
t'eailv always on past the (lag. He gavo
the ball a chance, and through this method
won on the first extra hole.
Ouimet, wllh Trners and Travis, helps
from tho Putting Triumvirate. He Is o
wonder on a putt of from 8 to 15 feet,
but often has a tendency to miss tho
shorter ones the two or three or four
footers.
Ho probably Isn't quite as steady a
putter as either of the other two. But
once out Into Ills top strido ho can get
moro brilliant than either. Tho exhibi
tion, under fire, that ho gavo at Brook
line against Vardon nnd I lay, and then
later agahibt Travers, will never lie for
gotten. A 10 or a 12-foot putt was
nothing.
Twenty-five Years Left
Ouimet Is barely 24 years old. Yet hfl
has won tho open and amateur champion
ships of his country. Ho still has at least
2T years of competitive golf left, and 1!
Inured as a pro for going Into the sport
ing goods business the gamo would lose
In general Interest more than most peo
ple know. Kvcn If Ouimet Is barred this
spring, and tanked as a pro., we do not
believe tho Judgment will bo allowed to
stand, once the majority vote of golf
clubs is given a chanco to find out just
what American golfers desire. Ho is too
lino a sportsman, too good a golfer, and
lie has done too much for the golf In tho
U. S. A. to be pushed nslde. where others
who have committed offenses against
amateurism far more flagrant have never
been touched.
LEAGUE TENNK
MATCHES TO BE
HELD IN JULY
Change in Dates May Re
sult in Entry of Nor
ris Williams
Progress is rife in Philadelphia tennis
this season. The Ititcrclub League at Its
annual winter meeting proved again that
this is the year of development of tho
' game around our city.
Several exceedingly Interesting things
were dime at the meeting. l-'lrst and
most Impoitnnt. a new club was added to
the league. C ynwyd Club made applica
tion and was aece) ted
Second, tho dates for the Intcrcluh
matches were placed In July this year
Instead of May, as usual. This should
Insuie the participation of f-eveial prom
inent players, possibly It. IC. Williams
among them, who otherwise would not
compote.
Thiid, the Junior interclub series will
again be played this year. The manage
ment of It will bo In tho Tiands of a com-
mltteo of ono senior representative from
each club. Tho schedule will shortly bo
drawn up nt a special meeting of these
represcntntles.
The advent of Cynwyd Into the league
marks a big step by this progressive lit
tle organization and should prove a big
benetlt to both tne club and tho league.
The I'ynwjrt team will be chosen fiom
such men as Wallace V. Johnson, Wil
liam T Tllden, 2d. I'. C Osborne, Dr. P.
B. Hawk. Harry Martin, C. X. Beard and
others. The chances are that Johnson will
play No. 1 ; Tllden, No. 2 ; Hawk, No. 3,
anu osuorne, ro. 4.
This .suiiiuls like a team that oven Phil
adelphia and Merlon will have trouble
with.
The Cynwyd Juniors can boast of our
city Indoor champion, .Sering Wilson,
young Carl Fischer and several older boys,
an ot wuom are good players.
Tho competition in both branches of
the Interclub League this season should
