TENNIS PRO

The stunt of turning professional
seems to be in the air.

First Red Grange spurned the lib-
eral advantages of a. college educa~
tion for a pot of gold.

Then followed Ernie Nevers in the
footsteps of Grunge; The men. pro.

greatest backfield star of all-time.
is shortly to make his debut as a
pro in Florida. arrayed against
Grange.

When you recall that Warner de~
veloped Jim Thorpe. as well as many
other outstanding football stars, it
is apparent that he thinks pretty
well of Ernie Nevers.

Money has lured amateur stem
from the ranks of baseball. football
and golfing, but tennis has been
rather immune.

That is why the announcement
that Harvey Snodgrass has desert-
ed the amateur ranks for the filthy
lucre class, is of more than passing
interest.

RICKARD'S SCHEME

No doubt the failure of more star
tennis players to trun pro has been
due to the fact that there has been
no great demand for such action.

several years ago it was hinted
that Tex Rickard had in mind put-
ting professional tennis over on a
big scale and had made overtures to
such stars as Tilden. Richards.
Johnston and others of that class
to forsake the amateur ranks for
the professional field.

Apparently the plan failed to ap.

. post to the tennis stars for none of

them seemed the least interested in
the scheme as advanced by Rickard.

has dominated the tennis livid M.
cause of the unusual brilliance of a
limited number of players like 'l‘il~
deli. Johnston. Richards and Helen
Wills.

These stars cannot go on forever.
When they fade out of tin: tennis
picture. the United States is going to
be, in a bad way to retain its all
premacy unless some serious atten-
tion is glion to the younger players.

Nothing develops a youngster
more than proper supervision. The
sponslbla for the rapid strides made
noted football coaches are largely ru-
by the grid game. Golf has hun-
dreds of professional instructors.
Every major and minor league bull
club has from one to a half dozen
men capable of properly coaching
the rookies.

Tennis has been lacking in proper
aupervislop and for that reason the
game has not developed the crack
players it should. considering the
great name of devotees of the game.

The finesse of the game is such
that it cannot simply be developed
by much play and no supervision.
That is very essential.

I O 0

It. is poslblc that the move made
by Snodgrsss in turning pro will re-
sult in other stars entering the field.
If so, the sport will profit im-

mensely.

for California after the second week

Joe Levy. matchmaker of that club.
for these fights.

 

Tex Rickard and his new match-

a show on January 8. at which there
will be three ten-round contests

Johnny Dundee, the fomrer feather-

making good in bouts for some-
thing. Two other ten-rounders will
be clinched next week.

1 NEW YORK. rim 2::
lniaii. the info rind ixvu-dliigiy lum-
leninblo challenger for flu: feather-
weight championship. has \visbcd ii
most melancholy Christmas on his
friends in general and his financial
backers in particular. iabc's defeat
at the. hands of Louis Kid Kuplnn at
Madison Square Garden on Friday
night loaves Jimmy Kelly and the
social act of Sullivan street facing a
long. hard winter.

Friday night's battle—— if it could
be called ilint- left in its “like a
chorus of loud squiiwks little short
of heart-vending. The squiiwks were
not aimed at the decision rendered
by Referee Patsy Haley and the two
judges. George Kelly and Charles F
Mathlson. but at Herman himself.
He is held solely to blame for the
fact that \\‘ads and wads of New
York cash were taken back to the
Connecticut hills yesterday by Kap-
lan's elated admirers.

The opinion seemed to be quite
unanimous yesterday that Herman's
faint heart and his astonishing
stupidity were responsible for his de-
feat. This. in fact. is the truth.
Proof of tlils‘lies in the fact that
when he emerged from his trance
occasionally and began to do his
stuff. he made Kaplun look foolish.
There were moments during the
fight when the Babe had the cham-
pion in trouble but invariably be
tossed away these opportunities. ‘

The dullcst tyro in the amateur
ranks could hardly have exhibited
poorer headwork than Babe Herman
did. He literally and deliberately
t row away what will probably be
h s last chance to win a world's
championship. To say that Kid
Ka‘plan was any better on Friday
night than he was when Babe Hor-
man won if out of 16 .rounds
from him in Waterbury last sum-
mer. is to talk fiction. The truth
is that Herman was so much worse
than in that Waterbury fight that it
was difficult to recognize him as the
same boxer.

There were some stories being
bandied about yesterday that Her-
man deliberatelyvpulled his punches
in order to permit the champion to
“11].. These were not taken serious-
ly in well~informed boxing circles.
These who know Herman and his
vagaries of temperament have no
doubt-as to what caused his defeat.
To use one of the polite phrases of
professional pugilism. Herman “dog-
ged it" and slowed down to a walk
in every crisis. He did everything
but quit cold when he might have
stepped out and won a brilliant vic-
tory. . '_ -

SET TWO RECORDS

One of the greatest middle dis-
tance runners in collegiate track and
field history was Ted Meredith of
Pennsylvania.

Meredith sported the _
Blue of the Quaker institution about
a. decade ago. His specialties were
the quarter and half-mile runs. Pre-
vious to coming to Penn he had
starred at Mercersburg Academy. in
prep school long noted for-"turning
out stars. of promise.

It' was in 1916 that Meredith
flashed his greatest bit of brillanoe.
Over a short stretch of two weeks
he hung up new‘ records for both
the'iio and 880.yard events.

On May 13 of that year the Penn
~flash ran the half mile in 1:53 1-6.
It was made at Philadelphia. Ex-
actly a fortnight later Meredith.
competing in the annual eastern in-
tercollegiates at Cambridge. the

were ‘ new records. Each still

Veterans Beat Youth

PITTSBURGH. Dec. 23.——Youth
isn't always served in the sport game.
Take the 1925 world series as a con—
crete example of that iiuth.

Easily the aim- of the Washington
Club was \‘i'alter Johnson. hero of 19
campaigns. No pitching perform-
ance in the entire series compared
With his work in the first game in
which he struck out 10 men. '

Fate was unkind in that it kept
him from winning the deciding game
and the series ‘for Washington. lt
prevented him from getting in the
class of immortals who have won
three games in a world series.

Max Carey. playing his lBlh year
for Pitisburgh. was the shining star
of both teams. the pitchers oxecpted.
Carey proved that he is one of the
greatest players of all time by his
brilliant display of all—round excel-
lcnce.

Rather tough on the youthful phe.
noms to have two veterans like Ca-
rey and Johnson with a. total of 31
years of service behind them. do the
big things.
