Troof Indicative that Omaha Is one of the real centers of national sport may be had by anyone glancing over the lists of tournaments that Omaha has scheduled for 1911. They show that this city has taken a place of prominence In the sporting world and will hold It In the coming years. The biggest event Is the Clay Court Na tional Tennis Tournament, to be held at the Omaha Field cluh starting August t. Last year was the initial event of the clay court championship and Omaha car ried if off In splendid style and Incidentally In that way secured the event for this year. And a promise is made that Omaha shall have at least every other year In the future. The entry list of the event of 1910 showed men from all parts of the United States. n Interesting news Item about the tour nament was that a Callfornlan. Melville Long, won the singles, with Merrill Hall, Brooklyn man. as runner up, and In the doubles O., W. Anderson of New York as paired with W. T. Hayes of Chicago.
