Central Plavs North High. Coach Mulholland's proteges swamped the Simpson college grid stcrs of Indianola, la., Saturday aft ernoon on Creighton field, 47 to 0, but whether the locals can hand the Kansas aggregation a similar drub bing remains to be seen. If the Catholics play the same brand of foot ball against the Aggies that was evident against "Soup" Graves' men last week the Omahans stand a good chance of adding another victory to their list. In North Des Moines Central will buck up against a, team which is in about the same class as the Purple and White eleven.

When Tlden II eliminated Nor man E. Brookes in the national lawn tennis singles tournament at Forest Hills the latter announced as his honest opinion of Tilden that the Philadelphian is the greatest tennis player the world ever has produced. ureatest flayer in world. Whether Tilden has forced the rest of the world to acknowledge this is still a matter of some ques tion, but he has rammed home the fact that he is now beyond question the greatest tennis player in the world. If he doesn't continue to demonstrate that fact when he meets the Australian defenders of the Davis cup next December at Auck land his friends in this country will be amazed. The strangest portion of the Phil adelphian's success is his rapid rise to fame after years' of playing as a mediocre player. Tilden was born in 1893 and therefore is 27 years old, but he is a veteran in service, hav ing been mixed in the game since he was 7 years old. It was not until the summer of 1917 that he began to attract any . particular attention, although he nad been regarded as at times a most dangerous opponent for any one. Then came the season of 1918. Til den started early, went through 11 tournaments, in the course of which he clayed 50 matcher and hune up the unequalled record of not having lost one of them. Unfortunately, the Philadelphian injured one of his legs shortly before the nationalrthampion in his match with Murray, Gretna High Opens Basket Ball Season By Beating Elkhorn Gretna, Neb., Oct. 18.

Brooks, the famous and bril liant Australian, and Ichiya Kuma gae, noted Jap. The wear and tear of these matches v probably had something to do with his inability to defeat Johnston, who ran off three straight sets. Tilden did fight, nevertheless, with such pluck that he was roundly cheered. His -ajay lastsummer was so im pressiveThat it was a foregone con clusion he would become a member of the team which would be sent out with a challenge for the Dwight F Davis cup, now in the hands of Aus tralasians. He was sent to tngiana along with Johnston, Charles Gar land, Williams and Samuel Hardy. The triumphs of the team in its Davis cup matches, however, fall eVinrt ftf Tilrlpn's achievements in the all-comers' -tournament at Wimble don, which he won, and afterward defeated Gerald B. Patterson, who was defending his "world's title," won the previous year. Patterson was no match for the lanky Phila Jelphian. - Wins U. S. Title. Tilden was deprived of his newly won "world's championship" in this country because the United States Lawn Tennis association doesi not agree with the international body which has given Wimbledon the world's title tourney as a permanent fixture, but Tilden helped himself to the honor when he beat Johnston Labor day for the i Untied, States title. Tilden is six feet one inch in height and possesses a reach in pro portion. His greatest asset, as may be judged, lies in ability to cover court at high speed with apparent ease and to play a net position sue cessfully because of his greaireach. His service, however, constitutea his greatest form. He defeated Johnston with it He combines this with an assortment of strokes whirh surpass that of any other player. His chop stroke is a marvel of effi.-;encv and he is deadly at overhand work.
