NATIONAL TEIS
PLANS COMPLETED
Georgo T. Adeo Will Be Referee
of Six Championships at
Forest HHI3
WILL START PLAY AUGUST 25
New Yorlt, Juno 27. Finns for the
national lawn tennis championship
tournament which will begin on Au
gust 23 on the West Side Tennis Club
courts nt Torest Hills virtually were
completed at a meeting of the tourna
ment committee, of which Julian S.
Myrick is chairman.
This committee from tho club acts
with the one representing the United
States National Lawn Tennis Associa
tion George T. Adce, Edwin F. Tor-
rey, C. Frederick Watson, Jr. The
preliminary arrangements Involve sev
eral changes which arc expected to find
favor with all interested.
Because six championships are to be
decided at this tournament it has a
broad appeal. In addition to the na
tional singles title the others nre the
junior and boys chnmpionships in sin
gles and doubles, the veterans' cham
pionship and the father and son cham
pionship, riayers of note from other
countries nre likely to take part. An
Australian team is almost sure to com
pete. A change which doubtless will be ap
preciated by visiting players will be an
attempt to provide entertainment for
them. This generally has been limited
to a dinner, but with the restraint of
wartime conditions removed this year it
was considered desirable to provide more
definite means of entertainment. Stuart
Johnston and Charles S. Landers have
this in charge.
Harry Parker will handle the tickets,
as in past seasons, and these will soon
be available nt 101 Park avenue. The
prices remain ns usual, with the addi
tion of the waT tax. Season tickets good
for a seat during the whole tournament
cost $5. GO, and v. Ill be sold until Au
gust 20.
