Increased Interest In
Tennis Club With the
New Hanking System
The ranking system has now boon
installed at the Alliance Tennis club,
the firnt drawings ix'intr merely by lot
and not being in any. way an" indira
tion of a player's ability. In about a
month a real comparison of the play
era can be made, an the ranking will
clearly show the strength of any
player. The system is started bv
drawing lots for numbers for each
player, the numbers being from 1 to
20. The played who draws number
1!0 enn then challenge numltor 1!), and
if he defeats him, he takes number 19
jind the losing player takes number
20. Thus any player may challenge
the one next al-ove him, and, if he
wins, take his number. A player may
work up until be is defeated or takes
number 1, when he will be merely
called upon to defend his position.
A board will le provided with
twenty numliers and movable tags on
which will be the players' names, in
order that the changes in standing
may be easily kept. This Ixiard will
be kept in the Ford garage and be
available at all times.
One match has been played, Bicknell,
who was in number 4, defeating Kerr,
who was in number 3, 6-0, fi-4. These
men have exchanged numlers.
Following are the rules:
1. Any player may challenge the
man with the next higher number, and
the match must be played within three
days. Otherwise the challenged player
loses by forfeit, utiles he and his chal
lenger make some arrangement by
which this rule is disregarded. Any
player who leaves town and is unable
to play loses ranking by one number
every three days.
2. It is the duty of the challenger
to see that balls are provided and
the necessary arrangements for the
match made. He shall also see that
the changes are made on the ranking
board.
No player may challenge a man who
has defeated him until he has played
nt least one mutch, and maintained his
light to issue such challenge.
4. All matches shall be for the best
two of three sets.
Following is the present ranking.

Alliance Defeats
Minatarc Sunday
in One-Sided Game
Alliance defeated Minatare Sunday
14 to 1 in what proved to be a one
sided game. The feature of the game
was the pitching of Fenning, who let
the Minatare team down with only
three hits. The Alliance team did
some particularly snappy fielding, and
found the Minatare hurler for sixteen
hits. Slattery, Alliance's shortstop,
took the batting honors by hitting
safelv three times out of four times
up. Fagan, formerly with the Grand
Island state league team played a
snappy game walloping the pill for
three hits out of four times up.
Fenning got three hits out of five
times at bat. lirilfis, Garvin and Fen
ning got three base hits, while Fagan
connected for two bases. Leaf green
of the Minatare team al;--o got a two
bagger. Fenning's remarkable pitch
ing is shown by the fact that ten
Minatare men struck out.

Local Racing Car
Fails to Place at
Bridgeport Race
r
Carl Belk's airplane-motored rac
ing car was raced at Bridirenort Sun
day, not getting into the money, but
K'vmg me ouiuiers a gixxi aeal or vai
uable dope on the car. The construe
tion on the speed car was completed
omuruay, whs oeing iar loo short a
time to allow anv adjustments which
are absolutely necessary to a motor of
mis Kind to be made. Carburator
trouble, and a punctured air pressure
tank were too much for the driver to
overcome.
The car was entered mainly lecause
it's appearance had been advertised
and those in charge' of the event
asked that it might appear at least.
With tuning up and general going
over, it is believed that the car will
make any racer in the country step.
The designer, Ed Slaughter, believes
that the 140-horsepower motor will
proel the car at over 100 miles an
hour.
The car will probably le entered in
the North Platte races, July 4. The
prizes offered at this race are large
enough to draw the faste.it drivers
from all over the country and the local
entry will have some real comH'tition.
The builders of tho car ai-e entirely
satisfied with the result and believe
that after the adjustments ure made
that it will have an excellent chance
of showing well in the North Platte
events. It is not likely that the cur
will be raced until then.

tween Alliance and Antioch resulted
in two matches won and one lost for
Alliance. Fowler and Bicknell, the
nign school doubles champions, de
feated Litteras and Chilcote, 8-6, 1-6,
6-4, in the hardest fought match of the

tennis, Chilcote and Litteras playing a
good net garn) but losing out on
ground strokes. Chilcote then defeated

difficulty, 6-4, 6-1. Burr then took a
one-set match from Litteras 6-1. Mil
ler, another Antioch player who came
with the team, did not pi a.
This is the second match, the first
being last Sunday, when Antioch won
three of five matches.
Team matches with other towns may

that this will increase the interest.

the members there. Chadron, Sidney
and other towns have clubs and have a
large number out.

Sunday Afternoon
The Ellsworth ball team and several

Burton of Bingham then taking the
box and pitched a very nice game
striking ojit four men. E. J. Schon
ard, Ellsworth's shortftop was unable
to lo with the team on account of
sickness in the family, thus the Ells
worth team was forced to alter the
regular lineup.
Whitman has a good team, are a
good bunch of spoits play gwnl ball
out hue an u-ualiy poor diamond.
I he third base is several feet higher
than the remainder of the diamond
while the lei t fiehier plays in a spe
ia.1 hoie of his own oniy his shoulders

Ownig to the condition of the dia
mond, errors were lrejuent through
ut the game although Ellsworth held
the lead in that end of the deal while
whitmans errors were not so co.-tly,
eight errors allowing six bases but
oniy one score was lorced in lrom this,
while Ellsworth's errors netted the
Whitmanites eight runs.
The feature fielding play of the
game was credited to Ellsworth in
me seventh inning on a snappy double,
pitcher, to first to second.
The score by innings:
Ellsworth 0 110000002

Snake Creek Takes
a One-Sided Game
From Pleasant Hill
Snake Creek defeated Pleasant Hill
41 to 3 in what was the highest scor
ing rum sn fnr in the leacue. The
Snake Creek team romped away with
the Pleasant MM aggregation, uie
losers apparently being below form.
Pleasant Hill, while unsuccessful so
far, has always put up a good battle
until the disaster of Sunday. After
cnoh n thnrouirh drubbinir the Pleas
ant Hill team may yet come out of it's
slump. Schwadcrer nurieu an excel
lent game, allowing but three hits.
Young pitched a fair game except for
disastrous ascension in the third and
fourth innings. Snake Creek did some
snappy fielding, allowing only two errors.
Pleasant Hill
T. Abram, lb
tion but the atre set at fifteen year.
This would stir up some interest in
junior tennis and develop ome strong
candidates lor future honors.

Many Local Tennis
Players to Attend
Scottsblutf Tourney
A number of local tennis players
are planning to attend the western Ne
hmwkji tennis tournament at Scott.-
bluff about the last of July. Earl
Meyer, twice state cnampion, may en
ter, and should he lie in even fair
Via should have little diffi
culty in winning. Meyer has leen out
of the game for some lime, oui it is
believed that it will not take a great
ileal of practice to get him in shape.
This should be the largest tournament
ever held in this part of the state,
and a number of speedy players will
be entered. An etfort may be made
to tret the next year's tournament at
Alliance, the Country club and the
Tennis club co-operating to put it on.
This would put four good courts into
play, and this should easily handle
the' tournament. With this might lie
combined a junior boys' tournament.
The latter would be for boys who had
not reached their nineteenth birthday

BUILT BETTER
than Cars that Cost More
A CAREFUL analysis of the construction
and complete equipment of the Light
Six will convince you that it has no dupli
cate in value in the light car class.
For instance, the machining of the crankshaft and
connecting rod on all surface is a manufacturing
practice that is found only on costlier cars.
This particular operation is mainly responsible for
the fine balance of the Light-Six motor and its re
markable freedom from vibration at all speeds. It
also has an important bearing on the wearing quality
of the car and on its long-lived dependable service.
The exceptional values in the Light-Six are possible
because practically every part that goes into the car
is manufactured complete in the most modern plant in
the world. Parts-makers' profits are practically elim
inated. Important savings through better methods
and bigger volume permit greater value to the buyer.
From the standpoint of shrewd investment you should
find out why the Light-Six offers you so much more
for your money in performance, service and economy.
