THE LAKE SHOR& NEWS; MIDAY, JUNE % "iffi? miMTENNm TOPICS mm by w, Pip S£ fe|^#^||bli^ rennis C6wh9lfaianlm Club. I have just received the report of the finals of The Veterans doubles, championship, metropolitan district, N. Y., match held at Forest Hills last Saturday. It seems to me that some attention should be paid by all those who love Tennis, to this match, not only en account of the Veteran Aspect, but on account of vthe make up of the two teams. Perhaps it iwoTjiaziKr^ttjac^DT^^ the names, and give their standings. The winners: Sam; Hardy (Captain of Davis Cup Team 1921). William A. Campbell (former Vet- erans Singles Champion). The losers: =r-iWmrikr learned (seventimes^ cham- pion Of U. S.). H. H. Hackett (former doubles Champion and Davis Cup player). The score was 7-5, 6-2, 64, but- this does not tell the story. To begin with it was supposed that Lamed wpuld be the outstanding star, by reason o'f his wonderful 'control. His partner Hackett was,looked upon to be a stone wall on defenses, in fact this team was picked to win. Now, we find that Lamed was made the 'centre of attack, and that Hackettrfaad iittleâ€"tornaoT^wehegTn to sit up and take notice, because even if Campbell did live up to his reputation, it was â€"â€"not-supposed that Hardy would put on View the wonderful exhibition that he did. Yet .it remains a fact that he was -the only one that earned more points? wheh tallied 'against his er- rors. I notice that in the second set game number 5, Eddie Conlin, the best um- pire.....that ever was, .called deuce 8 times, this shows what a battle the old war horses can put up.--------------- The recapitulation.

Now that Mrs. Mattery has ^landed in England^and is getting j used to ^e air, etc., we expect that --^here-will be some"-crowd"irthetwo^ stars come through the Tournament .to the final round. To prove that over there they are preparing for big do- ings Wimblendon has a new home all ready for this tournament. The new plant excells any thing we have, so it is said. The~stands~are made of concrete, and completely surround the center court. atingâ€"accommodations for 14,000 have been provided. Onegpod feature has been brought forward, the stands are covered, thus the sun, or the rain will not get in their good work, and at least every one will be able to see. Upon very/ good authority I am : going to wager that Suzanne never meets Molla in the Finals. Molla, will meet some one .else. â€"-- Answer to last week's question for the kiddies. Yes, the only conditions are that he ^shall not volley the ball until it' has crossed the net, and that he does not touch the net, or any of its supports while the ball is in play.f-â€"â€" __.

Looks as if Harry Holbrook wouH win the singles title..|j^^g jup,:;^-., Vaile, writing in the Herald under date of May 31, has decided to spank the Umpires association and the U. S, Lawn Tennis association for their failure to properly set forth a Foot Fault rule. Mr. Vaile states he drew up a rule for the Umpires asso- ciation at their request and, much to his surprise, they did not adopt it, but did get up one themselves which is all wrong. To quote Mr. Vaile we find under Rule 6: Rule 6. Before commencing to serve the server-shall-stand with both feet at rest behind (i. e., farther from the net than) the base line and within the limits of the center mark and side- line. From the time of taking such stand and until the racket strikes, the ball, both feet shall remain behind the base line and at least one foot shall remain on the ground." Notice, that although the rule says within'what limitsroiie^ shall start the service, it imposes no restriction on one's moving beyond such limits dur- ing the service, provided one remains behind the base line. ; ; The consequence is that one may legally step across the center mark, in the JacJLot serving, and deliver the ball straight down the court, which, of course, is not tennis and was never intended by the solons who jmeddled •with the laws. This must and will be altered. Now here la the greatest Jajte of the whole "manual/* . |#;: Rule 7. savsHf "This service shall be delivered tfrom the right and left courts alternately. A player cannot deliver his service from a court without entering it. To enter it he must commit a foot-fault, so, if my lunch has disagreed with me, I can insist on a player serving from the right or left court, and directly he does so legally protest his,:,#&$$$* as a foot-fault, or vice versa t|ifS:ii M YOUNG PEOPLE'S BANQUET »The First annual banquet of the Young People's Union of Wilmette is scheduled to be held Tuesday eve- ning, June 20.
