Uninitiated Find IlUtory, Growth and Development of Game lutein rutins Rending. RUIN DECLARED FACED Apple Men of Xortbwest to Present Facts and Figures on Oregon, and Washington Situation. Y books have been written on nis. The books by Vail, Mau rice McLoughlin and later Suzanne Leglen of France are all good in their way, but "The Art of Lawn Tennis, just off the presses and written by World Champion Big Bill Tilden of Philadelphia, is uneruestlonably the finest, book on the game that has ever been written. It is the last word in tennis. Previous authors have generally confined themselves to technical de scriptions of play, etc. Tilden has made thfs 'almost a secondary con sideration in his book. True, he has plenty of such instruction,, but throughout it is Interspersed: and woven with comparisons and pretty little stories that make this feature of the book the clevereot review of strokes, eta, that has ever been at tempted. Hit chapters devoted to the history, growth and general development of the game is such that it makes really good reading for even the most unin itiated. It is in reality the first book of its kind that oan be classed as a literary effort wherein you do not have to be a tennis enthusiast to read, understand and appreciate. The au thor explains various terms of the game in clever, simple style, and then on the other hand goes on to give de scriptions that the most ardent de votee of technique will thoroughly ap preciate and yet at the same time this technique is so written and phrased that the general reader can readily grasp the intent. The book is profusely Illustrated and includes photos of the greatest players of the world in action. The players ofjhe Pacific coast are used largely both for illustrative purposes and also for comparison purposes throughout the book. The edition has just been published by the George H. Doran company of New York, and should prove an asset to all readers, j whether interested In tennis its a- player or casual. TO START CENTRA It CALIFORNIA TITLES MATCHES MAY 28-30.

It is therefore some what of a coincidence that -within a week on the Atlantic and the Pacific coasts two sets of brothers found themselves In this predicament In two different sports. In New York Fred Anderson and brother Frank played for the national indoor lawn tennis title, while down at Los Angeles Dr. Paul Hunter defeated his brother Robert for the southern California golf championship. Here Is the original glutton- for punishment. In New York last week Young Mullen took the K. O. twice in the one night. He boxed at the com monwealth club and was flattened in the first round. Then be put on his clothes and went to th,e Star Casino club, where be also "got bis in the first round.
