' Maurice E. McLoughlln. NEW YORK, March 4. M) Un til last year's atirring season the experts who had been predicting an nually that Vincent Richards would break through to the top of the ten nis heap had little real cause for Hiitinfuction. In fact a convlciton has become pretty well grounded that he would never reach the ultiniatnpeak, but as though reaching his second wind, Kichards leaped forward in 19J4. ith auch startling Bt 'idea that he dislodged "Little Kill" Johnston from the number two ranking position and came perilously close to toppling ' Hig Bill ' 'Iilden in the national championship singles. There remained no doubt in the minds of observer nt the closi of last season that Richards 1 had "ar rived." This year, with the natural expectation of further improvement in his game, be stands out as the one player having the best chance of threatening Tilden'a five-year reign. Observers here do not overlook the possibility of a comeback by John. mun, who forms the remaining link in America's "big three'-" but the Call fornian has passed his peak while Kichards, young, ambitious and confi dent, ia on the up grade. Much of Richards improvement Inst season was duo 'to development of a stronger service and the addition of weight which Increased bis power and endurance. These were the factors bo-most needed to reinforce the ver satility he hnd acquired as a protege of Tildcn. Most of Richards mete oric progress has been linked with the influence, of the present national champian. His first national tri umph came in 1017, when, as a youth of 14, he won the boys champion ship. A year later, he startled the tennis world by winning the national turf court doubles with Tilden, a vic tory which waa repeated in 1021nnd 1022. Sport Talk JOCK HUTCHISON, veteran pro fessions! golfer, bns never won the national open title. "Hutch" has been a regular compe titor in the classic for many yeara but the best he has been ablo to do is come through with a tecond In lOltl and a tlo for the same place in lU'JO. V In 1010 he shot a 28R, on of the best ecores In open nnnals, but nt that was two etrokes behind Chick Evans record card. J Billy Evans Says- By BILLY EVANS "piIE victory of the Washington club Inst year spoiled the. chances of the New York Americnne to make it four pennants In a row. Both New York clubs had the op portunity to set a new record In that respect last season; the Giants deliv ered, the Yankees failed. Can the Yankees, after being nosed out, come back to win this year? The Yankoes, an aging club, will get seri ous competition from many quarter. It Isn't going to bo an cosy task. It at the start of last season. T h.A been asked to name the strongest club in me American League, the Yankees would have been my choice. That team figured to win Its fourth con secutive .pennant. To my way of thinking, carelessness cost tri Yankees the 1U24 honors. I umpired in nt least a half dozen games the team dropped through slip shod play. , . For three yoam tho Yankees were n great team. Last Season tho New York entry was just a good team. Its greatest weakness was a careless spirit. , Costly Defeats Often too much success makes for carelessness. A club with a great of fensive, the Yankees undoubtedly figured they could go out and win when called upon for the big drive. Why worry about dropping a game here and there during the spring that should have been won? The players failed to reslixe Ihst a game lost In May was ss costly ss one dropped in September. Failure to run out a hit, foolish work on the bases;' and other like faults, resulted in defeats that should have been victories with beadsup play. ' I am inclined to think the Yankees have learned a lesson. If the club had ahown the fighting spirit in April and M07 that characterized the ploy of August and September, another pen nant would have been won. I look for the Yankees to be that kind of a ball club from the very start of the 1025 campaign. True the club is a veteran aggre gation, yet I feel there is still plenty of power and fight that should make the HuggiD entry a contender all the way.

"First right randed hitter to turn trick since 100.1. Check Seal Material 8old by : The Bailey Electric Co. 640 Willamette St. Phona 234 u By JOE WILLIAMS . T WAS at the Inverness club at Toledo that Leo Diegel found himself on the threshold of interna tional fame, a mere mashie ahot, so to speak, from the open championship. At the thirteenth hole, where o many golf ambitions hare trembled and toppled to ruin, Diegel was appar ently all, set to sail into the harbor of riches and contentment, iut some thing bsppened. ! Diegel changed horses, or rather ; caddies, in mid-stream and the mis-! fortune that followed whipped him. ' Diegel Jiad played the first nine holes of his last rpund and was going well when a famous ania.teur, who had finished his msrch, prevailed about the young profeasiona 1 to let. him carry his sticks and advise him. The amateur was well meaning j enough, and Diegel was probably de- lighted at the attention. So away they went. Diegel clicked off par at 10, 11 1 and 12. Immense gulleries were clut- i tering the course. Word had swept j to the clubhouse that a young Amer-1 lean was still in the fight. (This tour- nament, you may recall, was featured ; by the presence of Vardon and Ray). ' With five holes to go Diegel really j seemed to have a plendid chance. Or-1 dinary scoring would bring , him through. There was a stampede to his j sector. At the thirteenth the fans were horded together so closely they ; were using one another's handker- chiefs unknowingly. . As Diegel reached the top of his swing a gallery official bellowed j "Down In front!" Diegel topped his drive. A few moment later a hound for statistics galloped to the scene, and, as Diegel was debating whether to use a light iron or a heavy one on his second shot, this fiend hUsfljd in his ear, ""Ray's home with 208." With hiB concentration again brok en, Diegel looked wildly to a trap and finally finished the thirteenth hole with a eeven, where par was only four. And even then, he was only a stroke back of the winner at the finish. A gallery can make a mighty dif ference. I'laying without a gallery on those last five holes Diegel might uave won the title by two or three strokes. "Why didn't they wait until I hnd finished the thirteenth hole anyway," sorrows Diegel. r s Say It With Brakes And Save the Flower Have your brakes relined by experts, at a flat rate, by machinery Factory job.
