MEET Oiuk Has Bcea Iloaorrd wltk rrlTlIK of Holding; First Rational Clar Coart Championship. i u. - Preparation for numerous tennis tourna ments scheduled: to b held on the Omaha Field .club courts during the summer are beginning to take definite shape and are attracting ' considerable attention among Omaha enthusiasts. The tournament given most : consideration and which has Kclted most comment Is the national clay court championship given under the aus pices of the United States National Lawn Tennis club. The national tournament will open at the Field club -August L In It will ba repre sentatives ot tennis clubs and prominent tennis players from all parts of the coun try. From advices and letters which have already 'been received from players the meet promises to be second only to the na tional tournament held annually at New port, It. I. The tennis committee of the club has been working hard to advertise tha event and has been assisted by the publicity department of the Commercial club. Tha way Omaha, through the Omaha Field club, managed to secure the first na tional clay court tournament, was this: Three years ago several members of the Omaha club put their heads together and decided It was hardly fair that every na tional tournament be held at Newport. R. I., and, to make It worse, on grans courts. A scheme was mapped out Com ad II. Young, secretary of the tennis committee, wrote a letter to the national officers requesting that clay court players be given an oppor tunity to take part In a clay court tourna ment under the direction ot the national association. The tetter was formally brought before the association at Its meeting In New Tork. It was also formally turned down. Heads were again put together, so to speak, afcd another scheme evolved. At a later meeting the city of Omaha and the Omaha Field club were represented by a delegation which was successful In secur ing favorable action on the proposition. As Omaha had proposed the Idea, Omaha was given the privilege ot holding the flrat na tional clay court tournament. Week of Entertainment. The tennis committee has been given the assurance of the club that It may act with practically unlimited authority In arrang ing a royal entertainment for the visitors. The doors of the club will be thrown open to participants In the big meet and not a minute of the time they spend in the city will be allowed to go to waste. In the venlngs various functions will be ar ranged for their especial pleasure, lnc'lud lng benefit, dances, automobile trips and banquets. The club, which, as entertaining organ Iiation, has the privilege of presenting winners with trophies, will deviate some' what from usual methods in the presenta tion. The trophy, cups will be the perma nent property or winners wixnoui me necessity of a second or , third successful contest. The winner of the singles will be awarded a massive stiver cup and the winners of tha doubles will receive each a cup of smaller size. Runners up and win ners of consolation prizes will also come in for suitable awards. The first tournament of the season will open on the club courts June 27 tor the woman's city championship. Miss Kate Moores has been named to head a commit tee which will represent every Interested organisation In the city. Oreat interest has been . shown among women Interested in tennis and the event, inaugurated two years ago, promisee to be more successful and to have a large.' entry list than either X the meets that have gone before. ; Women's Tournament. ' Mrs. N. P. Dodge, jr., la present holder of the championship cup. If she Is a suc cessful contestant this year the trophy will become her property, as two successive victories are necessary to secure It. Mrs. Dodge won the championship a year ago from Miss Potter, winner of the first tour nament. On July 9, the gentlemen's tournament for the city championship singles and doubles, , will be played. This date has been set as It will enable a large number of players who are now at college to take part. ' Present holders of the city championship are Cuthbert Potter, singles, and Cuthbert Potter and Harry Koch, doubles. On August 15, the Field club championship tournament will be played, and on Septem ber 3, the juntas' city championship, sin gles and doubles. The Field club tourna ment will be confined to members of the club. ( ' As a number of players went Into camp with the high school cadets the junior handicap championship was not ended on schedule time. It has been on during the last two weeks and stands now with Davis having won a place on the finals, his op ponent to be decided by a game between Marriott and Beckett. The junior handicap ppened with sixteen entries. Tennis In Omaha. In securing the national tournament, Omaha merely took another step forward along the line ot tennis activities. Twenty years ago the first signs of actual life In the net and racquet game were Intro duced by the Omaha Lawn Tennis club, an organisation which has since passed out of existence. Under the Omaha club, tennis flourished, and at the end of eleven years, In 1901, the game played an Important part in Omaha amusements. In 1901 the Omaha Field club was organised and, as a great part ot the members of the old club went Into the new one. the older organization 1 lamed into ' coscurlty. Today, ou " club grounds alone, there are perhaps twenty' five well-kept courts, all of which are used during every available moment during the season. Many Hood riarers. Practice for the numerous tournaments scheduled has been kept up regularly for several weeks, not only on club courts but on many private courts - in the city. Omaha's clubs claim some of the best known players in this part ot the country and a good showing, If not a trophy, Is confidently expected In the national meet. Facilities tor holding such an event could scare be better than those at the Field club. Seven courts, laid out on the south side of the club building, provide ample space for all games ot the tourna ment, with a court or two left over. An fxceiltnt view of all courts may be had - from the club house, the verandas extend ing the entire length of the building. Thus It Is possible for hundreds ot spectators ta secure an unobstructed vloy of the gam. International Tennis Matches Are Postponed Contests Abandoned Because of Lack of Good Material in This Country. NEW TORK, June 1L Interest In the possibility of International tennis matches for the Davis cup this year has been wan ing steadily ever since It , was announced that not one of the ranking eastern stars could be prevailed upon to go to either Oreat Britain for the qualifying, round or later to Australia to attempt once more the regaining of the famous trophy. The departure for England ot Reals C. Wright probably will prove the real feature of tennis for this country, so far as Interna tional matches are concerned, and Wright's Invasion is purely a personal one Interviews with the leading racket wleld- ers elicit no enthusiasm at all and the con sensus of opinion among these men fs that. regrettable as It may seem, It is, never theless, preferable to rest easy this year rather than make another unsuccessful at tempt to regain the Davis cup. The least pessimistic of those in a posi tion to know the inside facts Is Robert D. Wrenn, chairman of the international committee of this country. Mr. v Wrenn, himself an old-time star and International ist, Is not willing to admit that the pre liminary matches or a trip to Australia are off for this year. He declared that his committee was still working hard, but was not ready for an official announcement. From what he guardedly said and also from Interviews with the leading players it was gathered that not one ot the first ten would think of going to Australia. One of the stars who has been Impor tuned to make the trip together with Heals Wright, while confessing that he did not know positively just what was in the air, gave as his opinion that only the two San Francisco boys, Long and McLough Un, who made an inglorious invasion last year into the antipodes, would answer af firmatively any request to fight tor the Davis cup. "We are willing to go," said this man, "but not one of us can spare the several months necessary for such a try. If Mr. Wrenn Is still optimistic, I believe he must be counting on the two Callfornlang, for certainly no eastern star, with the excep tion of Wright, hss been able to agree to tho trip, and I believe his visit to Eng land practically has made him unavailable now." Mr. Wrenn, In discussing the matter, un officially stated that recently the commit tee met and went over the ground thor oughly. It was Intimated that a pre liminary play-off between Oreat Britain and the United States looked uncertain. He said that country could not be expected to send a team to England, in spite of the fact that the Britishers had twice been here for these matches, because it was too much to ask America to do, with the possibility of an Australian trip to follow. Every move of the committee seems to be in this direction just now. In fact, it appears as if the Britishers had about de cided not to play In the series and thus leave to this country the only right to challenge. Even this concession, however, will hardly help matters, for it Is the trip to Australia that is the most troublesome. It Is, therefore, likely that In spite of last gear's setback the Callfornians will be the only ones to consent to play. Unquestion ably the selection will not be appreciated in tennis ranks, but in the face of failure In every other direction the committee cer tainly cannot be blamed. An announcement from tha international committee may be expected soma time next week. CORBIDOS ' BEST ON BASES Eat Stolen Eight More Than Any Other Player.

LONDON, June ll.-The visit of the American lawn tennis team to England tb'la season to play the preliminary round ot the Dwlght Davis cup competition will give a general stimulus to English tennis. Bright as are the prospects of the season, however. It ls-probable mat 1910 will be a woman's year. Miss Boothby will defend her title and before the year Is over more struggles between her and Miss Merton, which were ono of the chief features ot last season, may be expected. This year will be remarkable -tor the number of first class women players who will make a return the principal tourna ments under, different names from those by which they are most familiar. Mrs, Lambert Chambers (Miss Douglas) has al ready given a taste of her form' by win ning the covered courts championship, Mrs, Larcombe, who a few years ago- as Miss Thompson reached the final at Wimbledon, will again be playing. Mrs. Bterry will play in doubles; Mrs. Louard (Miss Wilson) will probably 4e seen at Beckenham and Wimbledon; Mrs. Lamplough (Miss East- lake-Smith) will make a welcome reappear ance, while Mrs. Kantian (Miss Boucher) Is returning from Canada and will play In most ot the leading tournaments. There is even some talk of the reappearance of Miss Dod.' who won the championship five times. . McMurray, Denver 63 Rellly. Topeka 143 Colllgan, Des Moines 170 80 51 Miller.
