The remarkable trowth of the Mine, tvltli the corresponding InrrvoHC In general Interest, nukes 1020 epoehal In female lawn tennisdom. Unfortunately 'he competition In the mtlonal tournament nt the Philadelphia Cricket Club, St. Martins, was n little too atrong for the Qunlicr (lity repn stntatlrea. While many of them made a rood ahowlng, none nppenred In the final of the women's events, although MIhvI,oii1p Dlton captured the nndnnnl Junior girls' title, defeating Miss Helen Jewell, the young star from Hunting don Valley In three fast rota, 3.0, O'.l. -2. Constructive Tennis Out-dde of the national, however, our women did splendid work ntid did It in nuch a wy that they inny be Haiti to have played constructive tennis. That U they not only tried to Improve their own games, but every effort wns made by those running th" tournaments to see that the entry Ilsti. were always as long as possible rfnd.thnt the entrants received the best and fairest treatment. This, by the way, is cardinal prin cipal of tourna.iient microns. If nn event Is held In which there nre manv entries, it la rs'sentlnl that It be run off smoothly and at the same time It Is necessary .that eve'yone be pleased. This Is a hard combination, but It wan gen erally done In the tournaments held in the vicinity of Philadelphia during the last season. Down at Wilmington Voter Wright gnve up an entire week to see that the omen a tournament was properly run. and it wns. Every one was pleased and the events were run off promptly. Mrs. W. P. New hall and her asso ciates at the Germantrmn Orlrket Club also may be congratulated on the wav In which they handled the meets nt Mnnhelm. Miss Thayer Victor The main title won here, exclusive of the natloliaU was the'Pennsylvnnla and Eastern stntes championship. This was captured by Alius Molly D. Thayer, who defeated her doubles nartner. Mlns Anne H. Townsend, In the finals on the turf courts of the Merlon Cricket Club. Haverford,jn June 4. Jllss Thayer was at the top"of her game In that match which waa witnessed by a big gallery. The score was 0-4, 0-4. Three dayu later Miss Th-ivw and Miss Townscnd were beaten fir the doubles crown by Mrs. M. 11. Huff and Sirs. Gilbert A. Harvey in nn Inter esting match, 4-6, 0-4, 0-1. Miss Ther and her brother, Alex, win the nixed doubles. For the second time the championship of Philadelphia went out of the city. The title was won at the Germantown Cricket Club on September 2.T by Miss jLcslle Bancroft, the. speedy left-hander from the Longwood Cricket Club, Rom- Ion Miss Bancroft is a player who is al most unbeatable by a woman when she Is going well and who Is likely to be beaten by the veriest dub when she Is off her game. She Is a decided in -and-outer. It happened that during the whole week of the Philadelphia tourna ment she wns "on" her game. She gave Miss Molly Thayer the worst de feat the Philadelphian received during the year then trimmed Miss Townsrnd In the finals, 0-2. 0-3. I believe Miss Tonnsend could beat her four times out f five. Ilnrt In Nationals In thlA tournament Miss Helen Hew ell and Miss Kntherlne Porter did the un expected by beating Miss Townsend and Miss Thaje'r in the doubles. It Is well to state here, however, thut Miss Thayer never fully regained her playing form after the national tournament when Hhe sprained her ankle In her match with Miss Kleanor Tcnnant, the California flash. Mrs. M. H. Huff, who has been play ing tennis a short time compared to mou of the tournament players of Phil--adelphia, ployed n very steady game throughout the yeur. She Is not a bril liant player, but always manages to keep the ball In play and In this way she made a fine showing in all of the tournaments In which she was entered. Her best performance was her victory in the Middles Stntes meet held at Man hrlm. On the final day, .Tune 13, Mrs. Huff took the title by beating Mrs. W. P Newhnll. the Germantown Cricket Club left-hander. Mrs. Huff won easily, 0-2, fi-3. In the national mixed doubles Mrs. Huff and Carl Fischer, the brilliant young Vnlvwslty of Pennsjlvnnla and Cjnwyd player, did fine work. They went through several frames, but finally lost to Craig Hlddle und Mrs. Molls njurstedt Mallory In one of the closest and most gniellng mixed doubles matches ever staged In Philadelphia. Successful Yew Miss Phvllls Wnlsh beenn n success- fill year last February when she won I (he championship of Florldn on the clay nurts of ttie lloyal I'omciana jmiei m Palm Reach. In the final on thut Ge lation Miss Walsh defeated Mrs. Ilaw on Wood, of New York, in straight sets, 0-2, 0-1. , , At the Delaware tournament plnjed en the turf courts of the U ilmington Country Club, Miss Walsh platd well, particularly against Miss Florence Hul lln. the Westslde star. Miss alsh won easily over Miss Ilallln but she was not able to reach the finals, with Miss Marlon Zlnderstcin, of Iloston, on the tournament. ,, Miss Walsh played in the metropoli tan tournament lato In July and won the double title with Miss Leslie Han eroft. Miss Anne I. Townsend played con istntly all ear but she did not reach the heights that she will In another season. She began by leading the Merlon Cricket Club team to victory in the Interclub League. Her early sea Jon playing whs excellent, but later on no failed to play enough to keep up with the tournament procession and ns n result did not win several tournaments that she should and could have won had he played more. , At Wilmington Miss Townsend lost In Miss Zindersteln In the clmllenge round, 0-1 7-5. Just u little more ac curacy thut day and Miss Townsend woiilij hnve beaten the liiiikviiimi girl, put her tendeucy to net and drive out lost per the chance.

Miss Louise Drcyer proved very adept at the latter last night when she blocked fourteen efforts of the All-Philadelphia hockey team to shoot -the.. puekin tho net .In the first Intercity game between the Quaker Cltv .Mams ami tlie Metropolitan .Misses nt the Ice Palace. The contest ended with n couple of flashlights of the two teams and n score of 2-0 in fnvor of the visit ing septet. The big crowd enjoyed every minute of play between the female gliders and the more spills that the young players got the merrlet tho crowd became. Just how hard the game was waged on both sides is shown by the fact, that there were sixty-nine falls during the three ten -minute periods. Hoss Knuffmnn nld there were sixty-eight. lie forgot that the loss of the game constitutes another one. t Hetween the periods the spectators were treated to one of Uio greatest skating acts ever seen in Philadelphia. This was a brilliant perfprninnce by Xorval Ilaptie and Miss Gladys Lamb. They. nre truly the world'sjgrentest'on the ice and their stunts-caused n con stunt riot of upfilause. As for the hookey game. It ended just us it shoiildjmve. The New York era were more aggressive thau the Phil- ndelphiiins, that is with the exception of Miss Mnrgaretta' Sharpless,' captain of the local team. , .Miss Shnrplesh was hy far the best on the Ice. Time nnd ngnin she took the puck from nn oppo nent near her "own goal and curried down the ice and took a shot at the net, but Miss Hreyer was alwas on the lob nnd. In suite of Miss Shnrn- less' accurate shooting, she was unable to slip the pirek by the clever New York girl. Miss Florence Clothier Jind Miss Pansy Scott also played well for the Philadelphia girls. Tomorrow night the St. Nicks team will play the Quaker City sextet at the Ice Palace. .

A. It has already been predicted by prominent followers of sports that 1021 will witness a banner year In all fields of athletic activities, particularly for Philadelphains. The schools arc al ready planning to make this a record year, and at present interest Is centered In the prospects before the Internca demlc Athletic Association. The Intrrncadeinic Lengue Is the oldest school athletic body in existence today. It has at present only threo members, the Penn Charter School. Kpiscopal Academy nnd Germantown Academy. The Friends' Central School resigned last jenr. De Lnnccy School dropped out of tlie field some years ago. It Is not llie lini'lUKin oi me inier ncademlc League to continue as a three school organization nnd important de velopments should take place in lll.'l. It Is rumored that two schools will be added to the list, probably Haverford School and St. Luke's School. It Is understood that Chestnut Hill Academy has also been Invited tc Join the lengue. Other possibilities are Friends' Select School and (icrmantoun rrlcnils. 'ine plan Is to reorganize nnd form a btg private school league which will be second to none in the city in impor tance. It was recently stated thnt some of the eligibility rules In the Interncodcmic Lengue were not popular with some of the schools. The one -year residence rule has been cllinrnntcd. The lengue will give every consideration to nny sug gestions made. . It would Is- a fine thlhg for the pri vate schools' athletic competitions If such n league would Ik formed, for it would encourage friendly sports be tween the M-luxils on n sound basis and would most surely Increase interest on tlie part of the public in the events. With few exceptions these schools meet In all branches of sports and are well mutched. Schleff and Johnson Draw Carlisle.

Jack, It will be recalled, hied himself i Along with coal and electricity, gasoline has a very definite place a basic importance in keeping today's wheels of industry moving. The very life of many a business depends upon gasoline. That is why supply is a matter of vital concern with owners of truck and delivery-car fleets. That is why large concerns of this sort adopt the policy of looking ahead. The big majority of them "sign up" for Atlantic Gasoline buy it on contract for delivery throughout the year. Atlantic is their choice, not only because it is a powerful, uniform and absolutely dependable motor fuel, but because of the strength,stability and facilities of the organization behind it. Atlantic refineries are located right here "on the ground". They receive the crude oil direct from the pipes and deliver the refined product direct to large consumers, service stations and dealers. It is never threatened with delays to which ordi nary overland transportation is exposed. Are you thinking of your 1921 supply of gasoline? You should be talking it over with us now.
