PORTLAND, OREGON, SUNDAY MORNINO, JANUARY 21, 1917.
CENTRAL BODY ILL
GOVERN LOCAL COUR
AFFAIRS NEXT SEASON
Organization Movement Is
- Launched at Meeting of 4
Principal Clubs of City. "
J
NORRIS IS THE ORIGINATOR
Xd VU Triad Out In Irt Stat
" TewBumt and W Adopted for
CUtT Championships With Suoesss.
A
Orjranizatton of a central body to
govern the tennis game in the city of
Portland is contemplated.
At a meeting of the chairman of the
tennis clubs of Laurelhurst, Multno
mah. Irvlngton and Waverley clubs.
Conization will be perfected at another
meeting to be held next monin.
In attendance at the meeting wera
A. B. McAlpIn of Multnomah club, A.
D. 'Norris of Waverley Country club,
E. A. Johnson of Irvlngton and S. B.
Cooke and Clifford C. Harrison of
Laurelhurst club.
The organization grew out of the suc
cess which attended the cooperation
xArled out in the "bandllnr of the stale
and city tournaments here last sum
mer. A. D. Norris, who was manager
of the Oregon state tournament held
at ths Waverley Country club, was the
originator of the Idea. In handling the
state he asked the help of both Mult
nomah and Irvin.trton clubs. When the
city tournament was held by the Irv
lngton club, Everett Johnson called ?n
as well the laurelhurst club, which
had -then started to take its place
among the tennis clubs of the city.
Idea Becomes Popular.
80 successfully did the move come
out that at a luncheon given by Chair
man Cooke of Laurelhurst last week It
was. suggested that a permanent organ- !
Izatlon be formed.
The scope of the body is to be large.
A.-B. McAlpin, who Is regarded as the
father of tennis in Portland, has been
suggested as president of the organ
latlorT and will likely be elected as
such at the next meeting. He will have
a vote only In case of a tie, the usual
business to be decided by vote of tho
chairman of each of the four big clubs.
A secretary, who will work under the
direction of the committee but will
have no vote, will bewselected. Harri
son was elected temporary secretary at
the organiatlon meeting.
The organisation will be affiliated
with the Vnited States National Lawn
Teryiia association and ita rules will
fcovern. It will be the court of appeal
,from the decision of any referee in any
of the tournaments. It will decide the
Question 'of liJdbllltv of Dlavers and
maintain an amateur standard in all
tournament play.
. - "Will EstabUaa Standard.
A standard fop th tat nrt rttv
(tournaments will be made and any club
receiving these tournaments will be
'forced to live up to them. It Is In
tended that this body shall portion out
the state and city tournament each
year. ' .
The suggestion Is to be put up to the
directors of each of the clubs involved
'for their sanction and If successful
the permanent organization will be af
fected.
"It will be the ambition of this body
. to further the tennis game in everyway
possible in Portland," declared McAl
pin. "We intend to pay special at
tentlon to the younger generation and
give every one of them an opportunity
to grow up In the game.
"With the movement for-supervision
of tennis play growing all over the
country we consider' the present the
v proper time for starting such an or
sanitation and hope to secure tho In-
In tho city to our efforts."
