The tennis contin gent of the Field club decided It would bo a disappolnmcnt to hold tho Mid-West tourney hero, becnusa the brand of ten nis would necessarily bo a bit slower than that evidenced at tho National Clay Court tournament and that would hurt Omaha's standing as a city of superior meetings. An effort will he made, however, to se cure tho 1915 clay court tournnment and a reprcsentntlvo will be sent to the con vention of tho National Tennis associa tion In New York noxt month for that purpose. .The Clay court torncy will probably be awarded to Pittsburgh this year, as the smoky city Is making a hard fight for it and the facilities thero arc excellent, Tho 1912 event wua hold In that city and It was a hugo success. Pittsburgh - Is tlw logical place for the affair this year and Omaha Is the logical place for It In 1915, as many payers from'- tho cast would como hero on their way to or from the Frisco exposition and the California cracks would likely stQP over on their way to the eastern lawn tournaments, fici Francisco will be unable to make a successful bid for the event, as tennis In California Is played on asphalt and cement and they would bo unable to build Lgogd clay cpurts In .the short time of a year und a half, ns It Is necessary to let clay court settle solidly against Ihe base before they 'will remain snvjot'n raid even under hard playing. Ontnlin I'lnyerM Abroad. Omaha racket men will bo given an op. portunlty to play away from homo this year nnd many are already planning ti Invade' foreign fields In search of new laurels. Omaha probably will be repre sented In tho western ehamplotuhlp at Chicago, as well as Iowa. Nebraska, Knn raf, Missouri, South Datfota and Co-ore-lo tburnornnts. It Is certain that a ttam or perhaps several Individuals will nlav in tho clay" court tournament wherevci- II Is Bchfduled. Art Scrlbner 'will surely make several of the .tournaments. Ho always docs nnd ho always plays some sensational tennis, oven It he doesn't win. "Scrlh'' would much rather play n long, extra gamo match with an opponent, the hind of a match that keeps the gallery in tho i.lr every minute, than win a championship. He can bo counted on as one who will spread the fame of Omaha tennis. Cub Potter and Harry Koch may tako on some of the outside events. Although they do not know whether they will or out, they would llko to very much, and thut virtually means they will probably pack up when romc of the big tournaments aro announced. If Potter and Koch play at ; the clay court It Is a safe bet Omaha will bo presented when the survivors can be counted on tho fingers of both hands.
