MEMBERS OF VICTORIOUS NET TEAM THAT DEFENDED TROPHY LAST YEAR UNABLE TO COMPETE Bill Johnston, Tilden and V. Richards Barred by Player Writer Rule, While Dirk Williams Unable to Leave Business. * By DAVIS J. WAI>H. EW YORK. March 27.—Not a single member of the American team that collaborated in the successful defense of the Davis cup last fall is likely to s rep resent this J* country in the Olympic tennis at Paris, it was in > cheated in "semi official circles to day. This fact was admitted fol S lowimr the state ment attributed to Dick Williams, team captain, who was quoted as say ing he would be unable to arrange his affairs so that he could fake part In the international gamer. William M. Johnston, No. 2 in the national ranking list, declared himself nut months ago. William T. Tilden, 2d. greatest of all stars, and Vincent Kicharde, the hoy with a man's game, are harred by the player-writer rule, although it is not altogether certain that Kiehards will not waive his literary efforts for the occasion. If he does not, the TTnlted States I might just as well rec oncile itself In advance to a defeat In the Olympic tennis at St. Cloud. It would not have the chance of a brogan In a ball room, Tilden, Johnston, Williams and Richards constitute the first four In the national ranking list. The next eight, named In order, are: Francis T. Hunter, Howard Kinsey. Carl Fischer, B. I. C. Norton, llarvey Snodgrass. Robert Kinsey, Manuel Alonzo and Wallace F. Johnson. Nor ton and Alonzo are foreign residents and consequently .are eliminated. Fischer and Snodgrass lack the neces sary experience, and Johnson has known better days. The best combination under the circumstances wottlj lie lluntcr and HowaH Kinsey in the singles and the Kinsey brothers in the dou bles, with Fischer as alternate. It can hardly hope to beat Aus tralia. massing for action under Norman Brooks and Gerald Patter son. Neither would it figure to out. step Franer, with Its t'oehet, Boro tra and Suzanne, of the tempera ment. Kngland and Japan also will muster more likely combinations. The fact of the matter is tnat no nation can lose such men as Tilden, Johnston and Williams snd hope to show at its best. Richards is the key to better prospects. Without him the Fnited States will do well to finish In the money. Tijuana] Results Firet race: One-half mile: Ran Isabel, (Roganowski) 4 8u 2 40 2 20 Nellie A. Smith) ....7 40 2 20 Moon Child. (A.

A nr styles on rn ino at all Rood hat stores \ Veteran Senator Hurler An nounce* That He ^ ill Re tire at En<l of 1924 (Campaign. By MCK FLATLET. I ' AMPA. FLA . March I" 2J.—Walter .John eon must have given up all dreams of ever { „_ pitching In a y-w world's series. Walter has an nounced that he will retire at the end of the 1924 campaign, and the Washington Sen ators are not go ing to win any pennants in that affair, barring two or three of those miracles. Walter himself is In mighty good shape this spring, but there Isn't Hip necessary supporting east for any baseball revolution. The Senators have the youngest manager extant, Stanley Harris, ace 29, and one of th» best of the second basemen. Clark Griffith, who owns the club, has been trying for several years to pick one of his players and make a real manager o c of him. He tried George McBride, then Clyde Milan and last year Don'.e Bush. None quite pleased him. Harris has his hunrh hustling and the boys like him. He was al ways an earnest and strictly hon est player himself. He has a pretty good ball elub. all ready to welcome some good pitching. His Infield looks a bit weak around third, but Is otherwise very elassy. Hia out fielders can rapture fly halls and smack the acate and lie has a real patching staff in Muddy Ruel. Johnson, of course, is the founda tion for any pitching staff, and his years of service have not affeeted his ability to keep on the winning side. Zachary and Mogridge are a good pair of veteran southpaws and Zaliniser showed plenty of right baud stuff in spots last season. Allen Russell is one of the best for finishing up purposes, and can go for a full game once in a while. Manager Harris is stuck on two ol his v.-un* pitchers, Marberry from Memphis, who won three for the Sen ators last fall, and Red Wingfield from Chattanooga. Both are right handers. Goslin, Rice end Leibold will be the regular outfield, the latter play ing right f.eld and Rice center. Karr, a slashing hitter, from Raleigh has already won himself a regular job against southpaws and will replace Leihold. Judge, Harris and Peck make three-fourths of a million dollar In field, and th# leading candidate for third Is Protho. a Memphis product. He's one of those good infielders, not any too dangerous at th« hat. The Senators, with good pitching, can stay well up In the raoo. EXPECT BIG ENTRY LIST IN RELAYS Lawrence, Kan..
