were. waiiting around the corner to
pin the “has been" tag on the far

But Johnston. like the well known
strtnm. keeps going on. In fact. he
has been playing better tennis dur-

plan he led the paindc.
Johnston first stepped into na.

years inter ho‘copped highest honors
again by turning back Tilden. Inci-
tlciiiiilly. it is the only time "Little
Bill.“ has trimmed “Big Bill"- with
tho championship at stake, though
tiicy have met five times.
Johnston has been the most fam-
ous"runncnip" in tennisdom. He's
finished in that position - six times.
Consequently. he has come nearer
to winning the titlewn more occa-
sions than any other competitor in
the game' s annals _
Johnston unlike his arch- rival.
Tilden. is just a mite. He' a less than
“5- 6” in height and weighs but 125
pounds But on the courts he's a hu-
man dynamo. Ilisaction is likened
to a‘ well-oiled and smoothly run-
ning engine. Johnston is a. great 'vbl-
layer and keeps driving his returns
over'the net in trip-hammer fashion.

sound player at both net and the
baseline.
What are Johnston's chnnccs in
the nationals this your? Well. the
Californian may reach the ton rung
again but I doubt if Johnston is a vet-
eran campaigner. He‘s been up with
the elite for 11 years and yet has
been able to win the crown only
twice. Not since 1910 has be broken
through the pack as the lone sur-
vivor.
True. Johnston gave Tilden one of
the toughest battles the pair over
waged at Forest Hill! law. He
carried the champion to five thrill-
ing' sets, one going to deuce five
times.
But Tllden seems to be Johnston' s
nemesis. Johnston. for instance.
showed to much better advantage
thr'm did Tilden' agaibst Lacoste and
llorotia in the Davis cup tangle.
And yct when the Quaker‘and west-
erner clashed the latter couldn‘t
shake off the old Jinx. '
A prominent tennis official oncc
told me that Tilden always played
his best game when Opposed to
Johnston whereas against some of
the others he was inclined to "loaf
.along." finishing with Just enough
to win. Mayhap that accounts- for
Johnston looking better than Tildcn
in matches with chaps like Lacoste
and , Borotrn.
Johnstonwill always be a feared
contender in.a11y competition. But
his chances of . winning ' another
championship are rather remote.
For. even should Tilden fall down
there are still several to be reckoned

HOW TO SWIM
BY LILLIAN CANNON
The back stroke. in my opinion.
is largely a resting stroke and should
be used often as such.
Because the whole face is out of
the water all the time. one has ops
pcrtunity to breath more fully than
while swimming forward.
Also. one floats a large portion of
the time and there are moments
when no effort is being made at all.

Care should be taken to drill one-
self thoroughly in the resting idea
while doing the back stroke so that
a long swim can be frequently brok-
on with intervals of rest.
It is also tremendously useful if
one has to rescue someone from
drowning. By swimming on the
back. a. person can-be dragged along
with a minimum of effort.
