PASSING OF AMATEUR RULE BY TENNIS SOLONS MAY UNIFY LAW FOR ALL OTHER SPQRTJ

Tebruary 9, In New York It will maik tint last, 01 tln.it. saluto to the Hhk of
amateurism, It is expected that tho Mag will rinclc iinil whip In the breezes
This la the most lmpoitatit ituuual meeting that has over been held by the
national tennis body. Tho amateur question will bo tin untied out otico and foi
nil. The resjilt of tho otlnjr will nltect not onl tho carter athloteri of tho
white flannels, but It will also sink ita teeth with l.istltut orfert Into all otliei
kinds of sports. It Is of Ut.it signlllcanro lo tho futuio of tho lecpiit golf
amateur ruling.
Tennis Ruling Vitally Affects Golf land
TP THE tennis body otes In favor of tho proposed tightening up of tho ninnteui
ruling then tho golfers' Ideas on tho subject will hao been backed up by ono
of tho most poweiful bodlca faced bv tho nmatour pioblem Tho golfcis ma
then feel that its lecent decision la tho sentiment of alt American sportsmen
and tho main battlo will Imvo been won namely the putting of tho law nnoss
on tho great public. If tho law is set up by theso two laigo bodies, fiitiiu
opposition will bo dashed in nlti against a Olbi.iltai like ptecodout Hut tf tli.
court delegates cast nothing but blackballs in tho teeth of the pijiposed tennis
changes and do not build up their amateur Inw with tho clauses which rultd
tho golfcis' decision, then golf Kwmikeia and plaeis will hesitate With tin
moral backing of an mhcrso tennis decision, outlaw Hiikmiicii will take up tin
gauntlet with new courago and oppose tho strict golf low down to tho lust
word. "With a body as huge as tho f S N. I, T A holding out against the
strictest iletlnltion of an amateur, which Is now suppoitod not only by the
golfers, but tho A A U and tho luteicoileglato Association of Amateur Athletes
nt America, there Is bound to bo the gioatest amount of dissatisfaction and on
enthusiastic continuance In tho e.chango of woids on tho subject.
Court Athletes Sole Rebels Now
rpRNNlS Is now the ono big bodj tli.it has not fallon Into line. Tho amateur
-law will never attain full strength until there Is u solid unit In favor of It.
It now looks as though theio Is a lousing chance for tho defeat of tho bill In
trie tennis consultation.
Along tho length of tho breakei smashed sti etches of tho Pacific Coast,
which for tho Inst handful of eirs has donated nil tho gieatcst shaipshoottis
to the courts, thero Is a lint footed refusal to countenance tho new 1 tiling. Tho
I'aclflc States Lawn Tennis AhsucI tilon tossed on tho four winds somo months
ago tho Ihst howl it will raiso against tho amendments. If tho law is put Into
effect, it will prune from tennis lanks such stnis as Maurice McLouglilin,
Tom Bundy, William Johnston and other famous heioea ot tho liwn tennis
world. Tho Pacific Coast dovelops ono after tho other comets who tear lampant
through tho best of tho eastern talent. Tho I'aclllc tarelor is rapidly becoming tho
backbone of tho national body, so fur as players nie concerned, nnd Its woid Is
of more than ordinal y weight.
Philadelphians Frown on the New Thdught
TTERC In Philadelphia the district association has voted down sovei.il of thu
J-L newborn sections and will light against them ut the annual meeting, Mioulder
to shoulder with tho westerners
Acded to this opposition, and that likely to dovolop' nmong other candidates
for seats In tho deliberations of tho natlonni racquet moguls, is the stand ot 11
Norrls Williams national champion, who feels that nlj those now engaged In
the "handling, buvlng and selling of tennis goods" should bo given a clean
bill of health, but that a ban bhould bo placed on all those who heieafter enter
the tennis business. In other words, McLoughlln and Company may play tho game
as amateurs, but any joungsteis who hencefoith go Into the tennis business ot
telling supplies will bo professionals, according to Williams's plan. This is a half
way mcasuro which has received not a littlo Indorsement, but which appeals to
many others as a very milk and water way of tackling tho amateur question.
Gibbons Says Amendments Are Harmful
TN REGARD to tho wholo situation Paul IV. Gibbons, president of tho Phila
delphia nnd District Lawn Tennis Association, has tills to say:
"After looking at the question fiom all sides and talking It over with
scores of' devotees of tho game, I am convinced that tho pioposed amateur
changes will work a great haim nnd stir up bitter feeling which may tako
ars to eradicate. Tho haim which this may bring about is to my mind
Infinitely moie to bo avoided than tho liurni which may como to tho spoit If
certain mythical abuses aio permitted to cteep In."
Gibbons would wait till thoso "m thlc.il abuses" creep In and then throw
them out, If necessary. Ho Is In favor of an amateur law. without clauses of
permission and abolition., to bo f.amed In the following simple, sllveiy phrase-
An amateur Is ono who has not played or taught tonnia for personal peounlan
emolument."
Law About Which They Clash
THE chief article of tho proposed amendment to the tennis amateur law "which
, will be contested follows. In part
Section 6 Any person engaged in (ho handling, bujiiig or selling of tenuis
goods after April 1, 1918. sh ill, during the timo ho Is so engaged, bo ineligible
to pl.iy in anj matih under tho auspices of tho U. S. X. l T. A.
This article diffeis slightly from tho golf law. Inasmuch as players aio given
a vear to gefout from under and mo only ineligible dmlng tha time In which
they are engaged in the tennis tratllc of supplies. But if tennis delegates -vote
down this rule, as seems likely, golfers and moguls In other sports must of
necessity give heed and consider again tlto whole question, with the result
perhaps, that In tho grand melee all the clauses will bo thrown out uf the
window and players may kick out unrestricted once more their athletic heels
Which would bo a comfort.
Penn Will Make Mistake if Dickson Is Allowed to Leave
THERE Is a persistent rumor out at Tranklin Held that Byron Dickson,
former field coach and Bob Kolu ell's principal assistant on the gridiron last
fall, will sign a contract to coach another college football team next fall. It Is a
well known fact that tluee big universities are anxious to hccuro Uickson'a set vices
and attractive offers have been made Uj" has not jet offlxed his signature to
an alien contract, but if he does penn will lose ono of tho best gridiron tutors aim
has had In jears Dickson had charge of tho end men last fall, and their work
stood out above the others on the line. Ho taught Ills men reul football, and it
was seldom that they were outplayed Helnlu Miller is ono of his proteges, and
Henle is one of the best In the business,
In a way, Dickson has been restricted at Penn. He never has been given a
chance to show what lie really could do with a football team. Instead of special
izing on, certain positions or carrying out tho ordeta of the board of coaches, he
should have been allowed to, have a hand in directing tho policies of the entire
team. "By" Is one of the best offensive coaehe3 In tho East. When he was at
Bucknell he took mediocre material, and not much of that, and whipped It into a
fast-playing team.
Dickson Taught Whirlwind Attack
HIS attack was of the whirlwind order a'nd the larger elevens had to hustle
to win games. Cornell one day had a hard time emerging with a victory
by a slender margin and Princeton had a bad scare on sev eral occasions, picksun
knows modern football as well us the so called topnotchers, nnd the aerial game
Is at his finger tips. There is no doubt that he Is a valuable man at Perm,
and the University will make u grave mistake If he is allowed to sign with another1
college.
oh Darcy Finished George Chip
1ES DARCY Is a popular person, or leas a popular person. In Australia tome
J months ago when he flattened George Chip In a thrilling battle at Sidney,
The middleweight champion put George to sleep In the ninth round, and, judging
from reports, made as much of a hit as the Kaiser doe in Berlin. Glowing ac
counts in the newspapers refer to him as the greatest guy in the world and
monarch of all he surveys. They treat a boxing bout differently In Australia, as
can be seen in the following slangy account from the S dney Sportsman.
"Round Nine Chip made futile swings and fell Into hoUla and then Paroy
walked after him, driving terrible lefts) to the face, and when Chip got hold, he
hanged a short, jolting right and left George had begun in the previous round to
jjut up a guard for that terrible right 1o the Jaw from close quarters, and thla left
him rlth but one effective hand Darcy nearly broke his neck with a straight left
and went after him around the ring, and whenever Chip hung on, lie suffered ter
ribly, but would not yield Every time Leu got his right hand free he uppercut
George to the face. Chip swung out or a clinch Darcy lauded a tdiort right Jolt
With terriSo force to the point and Chip fell heavily, his head striking the canvas
fcaid, and lay Insensible till counted out Darcy wait the first to pick trim up The
$esa round, the ring was Indescribable. It was a splendid victory over a brave
