- Will Limit Tennis Activity Con

Challenge Round
Boosts Indian net players
", New l'orfc, July 14.-In .very mpeet
Jfcnt ono the Bill TlWen that arrived
) Ln on board the steamship from Eng-
ihnd was tho snmo Tilden that began
15 most arduous campaign in tennis
" history more tl.nn fourteen months ago
cheerful, boyish, effervescent.
The only difference was in the mat-
, tcr of his physical condition. One's
Rudiment of his condition may have
j Ln Influenced by the frequent reportB
i'fxom England and France on tho nub-
Trt gently, but he did not look like
1 llred athlete, nnd 'It was not difficult
to understand how one of the Brit tab
critic. Jn commenting on thu British
tennis 'challenge round, came to refer to
'th, world's champion's "convalescent"
PSndid not enre to go into any
HeMls about his condition, and after
ffiU bto friends that he wm
iTfJ' changed the subjec . "I am
Mtrcmcly Bind to be Iwrnie, ' he snid,
"nd needless to say I greatly appreci
ate the kindly Interest of my fellow
Vmfrlcans In my playing nbrond."
AHe "as referring to the nunwu,
,AerntnIntory telegrams nnd letters
h're handed to him. The tennis
champion, however, had a confidential
Srtwitn Samuel' Hardy, the Davis
Cud team captain, after his other
Mind! had left, and Hardy aald Inter
that ; Tilden realized he needed n rest
ind that, while he would apoear in
Tnl tournaments before the Dave
Oip challenge round ho would limit bis
activity considerably.
' "The fact Is that Tilden was not in
rood condition during most of the trip,"
!.m Tinrrlv. "although he would be the
last to advance such an nllbl. He was
afflicted with bolls in France to tho
extent that he had to undergo n slight
operation that laid him up for n few
dais. Naturally it affected his piny
considerably, nnd under the circum
stances he deserves great credit for de
fending his British championship sue-
-etMfully and for winning the world s
hard court tile at St. Cloud."
Allied about hl reception in I runic,
where he had played for the first time
la his career, Tilden snid "thnt the
French public was perfectly splendid.
They gave Mrs. Military and the other
players from the United States tho
warmest possible greeting, nnd big
crowds attended the matches "in Paris.
Their attitude was so fine thnt we all
strove to do our best."
Referring to France's chances in the
coming Davis Cup scries. Tilden sur
prised his hearer by declaring that it
would not surprise him if the team rep
resenting Indin proved to be the win
ner over the French squad. "As n
matter of fact," he explained, "Jacob,
who Is the bt'st man on the Indian team,
appears to be reasonably sure of both
,bls singles matches.
''lie Is playing flue tennis. Andre
Oobert, regarded ns Franco's tennis
ace, Is nursing a bad ankle nnd will
scarcely be able to do himself justice.
The French Government, however, has
advauccd a bum of money toward the
eipcnscs of its team, believing that it
would be a desirable thing from the
standpoint of International relations t
hare the French team here this sum
mer. When I left Franco the under
standing was thnt they would come
whether they won or lost ngaiust
Jndla."
Tilden gave B. I. C. Norton credit
for a splendid exhibition of tennis in the
'challenge round at Wimbledon nnd lidd
ed that he was Indeed lucky to have
rercouio tho, South African's long lead
and, to have won after being within a
itrok'e of defent.
,He declared thnt he nnd Norton are
"warm friends and thnt lie. hoped to see
.Mri'ln this country next hciimiii. Til-
rden'mndc light of tho report from Frig
lapd that the gnllery's constant cheer
ing of Norton in thq chnllrnge round
affected his (Tllden'a) tnnls early in
thab round. "No such thing," he de
clared, nnd added thnt the behavior of
the gallery was "perfectly nil right"
Sd typical of nuy gallery excited over
tIoie match.

TWO RETURN RACES ON
AT PT. BREEZE TONIGHT
Golden Wheel and Planl-Spencer
Match Event Are Scheduled
Two return blko races will be the
feature of the program tonight nt tho
Point Breeze Velodrome. Tho golden
wheel, with four starters, each a
champion and representing ns many
countries, will bo rerun, and Willie
Spencer, of America, nnd Orlando
Pianl, of Italy, will oppose each other
for the third time in a week.
Tho golden wheel is the nnnunl fifty
mile feature. Lnst Thursday night
Clarence Carman, the American nnd
international tltlo-holdcr, went out in
front nt tho outset and he never was
headed. Vinconzo JUnridonn, of Italy,
was handicapped by n scries of ncci
dents, nnd he was hopelessly out of the
rnco attar the first five miles. Georges
Seres, of France, and world's champion,
is in better shape than he was lnst week.
The following wire was received from
Providence yesterday, signed VInccnzo
Moddnna, Itnllnn champion: "Wish to
tell you I will show the fnns that I can
ride fifty miles in the golden wheel
revenge Thursday night nnd beat
Carmnn." '
Frank Corry, tho Australian tltlo
holder and golden wheel winner In 1020,
will be the fourth Btnrter. He gave
Carmnn a closo battle last week, was
right behind the Jnmaica flyer through
out nnd made Clarence oxtend himself.
The return inlle-mntch event botween
Spencer nnd Plant will bo their rubber
race. Last Thursday night Pianl won
in two heats outiof three, but on Hntur
day night the American defeated the
Italian in two straight heats. Plant and
Spencer have been the most consistent
winnors in match races this season.
Amateur bikers will have n chance to
show their speed In several events, in
cluding n half-mile handicap and two
mile open. A field of about twenty
amateurs will compete, including severnl
out-of-town entries who will como hero
from Ncwnrk, N. J., nnd Providence,

AMERICAN GOLFERS AS GOOD
AS BRITISH, SAYS MITCHELL
More Quantity There, but Quality Same Match-Play Cham
pion Diagnoses LinJcs Differences Here and
Abroad as He's Seen Them
By SANDY McNIDMCK
n OLF in mv country Is a much older
game thnn It la In America, but
there Is no question thnt the standard
of play In America Ib now equal to
that in Great Britain."
Thus spoke Abe Mitchell, Uriton'e
match-play champion, when "stumps
wero pulled" for luncheon nt Merlon
yesterday.
Tho "world's longest driver" leaned
bnck In his chair on the porch, sur
rounded by curious by-standcrs, nnd
thus delivered himself of his opinion
on American golf. It was a roal com
pliment. "I have seen tho best of your ama
teurs and pros," continued Mitchell,
"and I renily think your best nre ns
good as our best. Of courso it is only
natural thnt we should have more top
notch players than America has.
"But I think the supremacy now
rests In tho fortunes of tlia game. You
failed to win our amateur title; wo
failed to win yours. You won our
open ; wo won yours. 'There you nre,'
he smiled."
Mitchell, paired with his long-time
"pal," Ocorge Duncan, 1020 British
open champion, cngnged Max Marston
and Jerry Trovers. American nraatcurs,
in a four-ball, best-ball mntch yester
day on the Merlon cast coure. They
finished one down in tho morning nnd,
In the "cloud-burst" of the afternoon
round, trailed the Americans 4 nnd 2
on the match. Marston, star of Merlon,
played the Britons even yesterdny, as
Trnvera seldom had a chance to step
in for n win. Thousands of fans saw
tho match and voted it n success, all
except those who got wet.
Lilto Course
"Very fascinating," snld Dnncnn,
nftcr the morning round, In comment
ing on the Morion course.
"Greens n trifle on tho slow side,
you know," remnrked Mitchell, ns he
shook the wnter iroin himself liKe a
half-drowned terrier in the afternoon
flood.
Thanks to Layton Schoch, we hnd a
chance to talk things over with the
Britons, who are not, like Barton nnd
Ray, sworn to silence by n mannger.
They hnve one nt that, Jack Donald
son, but It was mostly, It seemed, be-
cnuse this is the modern style.
Mitchell stated he thought Amerlcnn
nnd British golfers pursued more or less
the snmc mechanics in shot making,
though said he'd noticed ono radical
difference In play.
"Wo go for the green from left to
right," ho snid, "while the Ameri
cans go after it from right to left.
They tell me courses over hero have big
open bunkers, which is n feature we
don't have so much. I like them my
self, ni what you might call markers
for direction.
"The Americans seem to piny n more
supple wrist thnn we do. I mean,
where we 'drnw' tho club buck stiff
wrlstcd, the Amoricnns 'pick It up'
with n bent wriHt, what?"
Stylist
Duncan nppenred to the gallery as
n stylist, like Vnrdon, while Mitchell's
stylo was different from most.
He hns a short back swing for con
trol nnd an nbbrevintrd follow through.
The club head thus gets all of its Im
petus from the knee down t the bnll,

British cont. this tlmn n llsht crush, nil
day.
Diincnn, in n white flannel shirt,
found It plenty. IIo's been hero be
fore. Tho gallery commented not n Ilttlo on
tho shtifts of Mitchell's clubs which
wero nppnrontly short. He snld the im
pression ovns probably made becnuso
he was shortening his grip, tnklng thu
clubs well down the shaft.
"I do that because" my hands get so
sweaty," explained Mitchell. "I find
it ht-Ips 011 hot or rainy days."
Both players rather dread tho trip
that cxtentls before them, through two
countries, on over fifty courses, nt 30
holes n day.
"We'll be lucky if they don't shin us
home In o'ur golf bags with tho cluwt,"
they grinned.
Incidcntnlly. Author Wills, publicity
impresario, said that Mitchell has to
hnvo now shafts or now wrapping on his
clubs every few days, ns ho presses down
no on them nt Impact. Also that neither
player ever takes even n "wee drnpplo,"
and that Mitchell's only Bmoklng Is one
cigarette after each meal. To their
temperance do tiiey give n lot of credit
for their steadiness on the links.
Likes JotJt
Mitchell was much impressed by, the
work of the American pro nt St. An
drews in tho British open.
"Jock Hutchison is a rattling good
plnyer, ns fine as I've seen," nsscrtnl
Mitchell. "Ho wan putting in bully
style there, couldn't miss a thing. I
was sorry .Tim Barnes was so sick. lie
went fine, but I saw him at the seventh
in tho lnst round nnd I said to my
caddie 'Poor Jiramio'B all in.'
"I guess he was, but still you can
piny fine golf there to get nn 80. and
when you're not playing so well you
may get close to 70. It nil depends on
the wind."
Both Britons arc very modest. They
were much embarrassed by a battery of
enmcrns they faced nt the finish.
There 1h one picture we'd like to sec,
and that's of Duncan as he Is lacing into
n drive. Ills fnce is contorted liko a
Bmall boy nnllug for tho last drop in n
pop bottle with n burst straw.
And gee. how thnt little golf ball does
jump nwny from there.
