TENNIS CHANGES IN ENGLAND Lawns Gradually Being Replaced by Hard Surface Courts in Vogue Elsewhere Experience Wins. "Go It, bnldhead!" was a cry fre quently heard at the recent lawn ten nis tournament at Wimbledon, and a spectator could not help observing that gray hairs and bald heads out numbered the locks ol youth among the players after the first day or two. Ye' lawn tennis is an athletic game, perhaps the most nctlve ol all Hum mer pastimes, demanding unusual pow ers of endurance, and one looks lor endurance and agility In the young Finding that the daring iind pnysictii strength or youth nro henten by the experience of age, the conclusion 10 be drawn Is that tho new generation Is not learning the essentials of the game The grotip of veterans who beat the youngsters this year cannot be expected to do these wonricrs again. Young men from other coun tries will rome again nnd 'hey will win because there will he no opposi tion to prevent them from doing so. And why? Hecause, somo critics say. the continent has learned the game from professionals and has learned It upon hard courts. There la a freedom and power In the foreign style which Is absent Irom the English game. In which lew risks are taken. In all probability this springs Irom the fact that the typical courts of the continent are not grass, hut have a hard, smooth surface from which every ball makes a true hound. Scarcely one grass court In ten can be relied upon tor a true hound of the ball. On such Inferior surfaces style becomes cramped First-class players are not to be trained upon third rate courts. The best promise for English lawn tennis Is the fart that the chilis aro losing their faith in grass. In LMl years' time the very name of lawn tennis may appear strange to our ears, the number of actual lawns de voted to the game will have become so small. Already hard courts are be ing constructed in every direction In a few years they will probably give England a new' school of tennis play ers who will meet on equal terms the best products of the continental and American clubs.

TWO CURED OF SKIN TROUBLE "I have suffered from birth with skin trouble, and doctored with four of the best doctors that could be found, without any lasting effects. Then I used several kinds of patent medicines, only growing worse In stead of better. After using (hem a long time I was bo bad that It took the hair off my head, and even my eyebrows too, and made my ryes so bad that I was kept In a dark room for several weeks. I was out of my head for a long time. A friend told tne to get somo of the Cutlcura Rem edies and she knew they would cure me, so I got some packages of Cutl cura Ointment and Resolvent and used them and was cured. This was about two years ago, and I have never had a touch of it since. "Also my husband had had salt rheum for twenty-three years, and nfter I had such a wonderful cure through the use of the Cutlcura Reme dies, he sent for some Cutlcura Soap, Cutlcura Ointment nnd Resolvent, and used them himself and ho was cured. Ilia flesh was covered with stuff like fish scales, especially hi the winter, and he even had It In his hair bo bad he had to keep his hair cut close to his head.

Nothing Is More Repulsive to Spec tators Than Constant Squabbles Between Competitors and Offi cials During Contest. In football as well as In every branch of sport, nothing is mote re pulsive to spectators than constant squabbles between competitors and officials. To quest loo the decision of fudges at a horserace, or a footrace, automo bile, or trotting race simple Is a waste of time, and these decisions cannot be reversed unless there la a wrong Interpretation of rules which govern such contests. If coaches would enforce a rule that only captains of elevens could ques tion or ask an Interpretation of au offi cial's decision football certainly would be placed on a higher plane and one of the meat distasteful features of the game so far as the spectators are concerned would be obliterated, writes Walter Kckersall In the Chicago Trib une. Football officials are selected bo cause of their known Impartiality, their thorough knowledge of the rules, nnd their sense of honor. The men. all college graduates, of debiting In gridiron contests this year have been put to many severe tcBts, and In few Instances have they erred Spectators never should condemn nn olllclal for levying a penalty, for the arbiters of the game are In better po sition and understand more thoroughly the exact Interpretations of the rules. I'se of hands in the Interference, coaching from the side lines, holding in the line, offside play, and a num ber of other Infringements of the rules are points which the average spectator does net sec. bin when an olllclal Inflicts penalties for such breaches of the rules he generally meets with criticism from the stands. Those who have plajcd football and have been In many hard ought con tists have had fouls called when they did not believe they were guilty of any Infringement. In such cases, these players have been so carried away with the excitement of the con tests ns to be unconscious of any breach -s In the rules they made, but when apprised of the conditions by officials they nave admitted their guilt. In the large universities, where It Is part of the preparation of nn eleven to teach the players the rules and their possibilities, the players seldom question an official's decision The members of these teams are so well versed In the rules as to know when on arbiter's decision Is right or wrong and for this reason few disputes arise. If the colleges In the eastern, west ern, and Missouri valley conferences would follow the precedent established at West Point, one of the most dis tasteful features of football would be done away with. Discipline relmis su preme at the army institution The captain of a football team controls tils men the same as a colonel of h regi ment or captain of a company If any member of a West Point football eleven questions the orders of the captain he must report to higher of-tit-la1 us soon as, the same Is com pleted if the captain files charges.
