YACHTING BOOMING IN CUBA
Amateurs Have Outgrown Smaller
Craft and Place Orders for Sev.
eral La ger Yachts.
With the growing prosperity of
Cuba, yachting has developed Into
one of the loading sports of wealthy
Cubans, and the Ilavima Yacht club
races nre now n feature of the sea
son. Many of the nninteur yachtsmen
feel that they hne outgrown the Bon
der type of racing craft, and orders
have been placed In this country for
several of the larger racing yachts.
When these are launched it Is hoped
that some of the American yacht own
ers may I e Induced to visit Cuba and
participate In a series of international
races. If the outcome of these races
warrants, several of the wealthy Cu
ban enthusiasts may combine and
challenge for the America's cup with
in the nest few years.
DEPENDS ON "PULLED DRIVE"
Success of Ichiya Kumagee, Japanese
Tennis Champion, Uses One
of Rarest Strokes.
Tennis experts who have been study
ing the style of Ichiya Kumagee since
the recent victories of the Japanese
champion showed him to be a formid
able contender for the national title,
say that Kumagee's success Is due
largely to his use of the "pulled drive,"
one of the rarest strokes in the game.
The stroke, they say, corresponds
to the pull In golf. Its effect Is to
make the ball spin upon an axis tilt
ed away from the player at an angle

and the effect is a wide curve in flight
end a very puzzling bound r break
after it strikes the ground.
It is said that this stroke was suc
cessfully used by the late Anthony
F. Wilding, the British and Australian
champion but it Is virtually unknown

POSTS ARRANGED FOR COURT
Desirable to Have Them Removed
When Lawn Is Being Cut or in
Winter Good Plan Shown.
It Is sometimes desirable to have
tennis-court posts arranged to be eas
ily removed from the lawn or the court
when the grass is being mowed, or dur
ing the winter. The method of firing
the posts In the ground, as shown In
the sketch, makes it convenient to re
move the posts and still gives the nec
essary stability, writes Edward B.
Smith of Waila Walla, Wash, In Pop
ular Mecbatics Magazine. A squnrs

BRILLIANT PERFORMERS
American athletes have again shown
that they retain their place at the
head of track and field si torts by the
brilliant performances of the chosen
few who crossed to the Scandinavian
countries at the Invitation of Sweden.
With only five men on the team, four
of them selected officially and the
other. Ward of Chicago, going locause
his fellow citizens thought he de
served the trip, the representatives of
the United States have won' nearly
every event in which they have com
peted. In the two days at Oiristiania the
Americans were victorious in every
event but one, and In that Ted Mere
dith was beaten only by a yard by J.
Bolin, the Swedish champion, at 8(H)
meters. The performances of the men
at Stockholm were remarkable when
It is taken into consideration that ihey
had disembarked from the steamship
only a day or two before their first
meeting with the Scandinavian cham
pions. In the stay of a week before
the Stockholm and Christlania meet
ings the Americans had a chance Jo
train, and the result was apparent,
particularly In the cases of Meredith,
Loomis and Ward. Lnomis recovered
his spring in the high jump and de-

Bob Simpson, Hie University of Mis

all the competitions over hurdles, and
already has placed on the !ooks a
new world's mark for 110 meters. Be

self well on the flat, and the same may
le said of Murray, who has beaten the
Scandinavians with great regularity in
both hurdle races and at sprinting

United States next year to compete In
various tournaments.
