The sport that but a few year ago was facetiously cliaracterlsed as being "an old maid s game" is now being played by hundreds and thousands all over the country. No gsme In the United States, with the possi ble exception of golf, has developed so quickly and gained such widespread popu larity. One needs go back but a short tlT to remember when a few scattered clubs around the city were sufficient to supply the demands of tennis plsyers. Ths sport was ridiculed. But a m-gloel change began taking place. Thousands stsrtt-d to play the court gsme. The rvsh ha been ao great that the publio courts In the parks, club courts and many privately owned are Inadequate to fill th dtmand. Tennis courts In the suburbs, like the wteds, ar springing up every where Clubs have tried the experiment of In stalling arc lights so that players might swat ths ball across the nst In ths even ing. Yet with all the facilities that have been provided, a big section of New Tork's tennis army csn't find accommo dations. Tennis hss won th present popularlt simply on Its merits. Th Internationa Davis cup matches and the prowess v young star like R. N orris William' Maurice McLoughlln and other California lumlnariea hav accelerated the game's development, but It ha been the dls covery that tennla Is a mighty fin ipon that haa captured thousands of recruit It la an Inexpensive game and one that snay be 'enjoyed by the young and old, men and women.

Drawn for One Man to Judge Finish of Harvard And Yale Boat Race NEW. YORK. May 23,-The board of nanagers of the Yale-Harvard boat race at New London on June 26 have elimi nated all chances of a repetition of the mix-up that msrked the finish of the raoe last year, when the judges delib erated for about fifteen minutes befoi-e deciding that Ysle had won the race by about four inches. By appointing one competent Judge, he alone to decide tho finish, all chances for arguments are removed. Harry Fisher of Columbia has been named for this important post, and the committee could not have selected a better and mors competent official. Fisher is well versed In duties of this kind, and If It Is a close race both Yale snd Harvard are sure of a square deal. Up to this year the judges at the fin ish bave been a sort of an honorary ap pointment, as It never was figured that a race would be so close as to cause a disagreement among th Judges. In th rac last year there were three offi cials, the postmaster of the city and two undergraduatsa All three loat their heada when Yale and Harvard caina sweeping down toward the finish neck and neck. First the red flag was hoisted, meaning a Harvard victory, and then the blue flag was sent up. They finally ot things straightened out snd gave 'ale the victory by a few Inches. It was said at the time that one Judge tcked Yale, another Harvard and a third ailed It a dead heat. This time Harry fisher wUl pick the witiner at th flu sh, and If he falls overboard or some thing els unforeseen ahould happen to him there will be a substitute to take his place.

THEN MUST BUN HALF MILE PHILADELPHIA, May 22. Seldom in the history of college sport has an ath lete faced a sterner task than the one that confronts Ted Meredith on the final day of the Intercollegiate American Ama teur Athletic association championship meet at Franklin field on May 2$. The wonderful Quaker runner Is going to try to do what be Just failed la accomplish at the Intercollegiate last spring, vis., to win both the quarter mile and half mile Championships and thereby put ten good points in the University of Pennsylvania column. In substance Meredith will have to go out and lick two quarter mllers capable of doing close to forty -eight seconds, and then within an hour come back to the mark and take tho measure of two of the fleetest half mllers In the country Marty Hayes of Princeton and Bill Bing ham of Harvard. Last year Ted got away with the 440, though he had to do 28 seconds to win; only to fall a victim to Davy Caldwell's sprint In the final fifty yards of the "half." Meredith's tak and hla chances look about the same this time. He's likely to have to run a stride or two faster in the quarter, while the opposition that he will meet. In the half mile looks a little less classy. : , , Yale Man Dangeroas. . , The men who will press Meredith . In the quater mile are Val Wilkie of Yale university and Wilcox of Harvard. Wllkle, one ot the most consistent quarter nailers that ever wpre spiked shoe. Is sure, to make Meredith run right to the tape. Wilcox Is fully aa fast as Wllkle when he Is right, but Is Inclined to be a bit erratic. All this spring Wilkie has shown that he Is a faster runner than ever be fore. On April 30, at New Haven, Val stepped his 440 In 48 seconds from a standing start, and a repetition of this performance at the Intercollegiate will force Meredith to hi limit to win. Both Bingham and Hayes will make some trouble for Meredith In his second race at the intercollegiate the half mile. The Harvard flier ha grown much bigger, and consequently stronger since last year, and his running has shown a corresponding improvement. In a two mile relay on the boards early this spring Bingham actually gained ground on Meredith, and In the one-mile champion ship relay race at the Pennsylvania re lays last month the Pennsylvania filer, in doing his "forty-eight two," gained but four yards on the Harvard boy. Yachting on the Atlantic Booms To Large Degree NEW YORK. May 22.-A a result of ths hostilities In Europe, indication are that yachting activity will be stimulated on this side of the Atlantic.
