G At the Horse Show PINEHURST TO OPEN 1920 TENNIS SEASON WITH BRILLIANT TOURNEY Judging Solely from the impressive list of entries already received for the coming North and . South Tennis Tour ament in Pinehurst the tennis world will be treated this week to an exhibition of high-class tennis and we doubt whether any of the forthcoming tournaments in the North will reveal an assemblage of tennis notables comparable to the stars now wielding their rackets on the courts at the Country Club. The list of women players is of the highest order.. Four out of the first ten ranking players in the United States are now in Pinehurst. In enumerating them we hardly know where to begin. Miss Marion Zinderstein rightfully occupies a prominent position. She has already won the Pinehurst Challenge Cup once and stands a - good chance of securing it permanently. . Miss Edith Sigourney, although not ranked in 1919, is another Bostonian from whom we expect great things in . this . April tourney. Watch her deep court drives and her speedy and accurate service. Miss Helen I'ollak of Newark, ranked 10th in 1919, hut she is. now queen of the indoor court, having defeated Miss Sigourney in the National Championship Finals. The Nw- Jersey star is only 18 years old, Hid she plays a cool steady game, minus tendency to brilliancy, and she has, ;1 reputation of knowing how to make t':ose clever placement shots that-score '"'ivily in a. match. Another star is -fisa Helen Gilleaudeau of Mamaro-neck, Y. She will push Miss Zinderstein ! rd for .final honors. The Ballin sisters ' in Pinehurst and they are dangerous "-tenders. Miss Phyllis Walsh and M'ss jCatherine Force, coming up from Palm Bea:h where they have been play ing rattling good tennis, are another pair whose names add lustre to the prog ram. Other women players are , Mrs. Harold Throckmorton, Mrs. Theodora Schst, Miss Bertha Sexton, Mrs. De VForest Candee, Mrs. Dorothy I. Briggs, Mrs. ..Stratfin and Mrs. Gear." Entries from Pinehurst will no doubt include Miss Carolyn Bogart, who always holds her own in a field of fast players, Miss Esther Tufts, Miss Judith Jenks, Miss Rice and Miss Swoope, sister of Mr. H. B. Swoope, of Ked Gables. Among the men we find William Tilden, 2nd, heading the list. This Pine hurst favorite bows to nobody in the ten nis world, unless it be. W. M. Johnson. These two paired in doubles, it will be remembered, took the measure, of Brookes and Patterson when the latter players invaded the United States, and without doubt with practice would be come the greatest team in the world. Young Vincent Richards, who with Til den won in the doubles in the April tournament, last year, is here again to help defend the title. S H. Voshell seems to be staging a conie-back in the tennis world. Last year he played with Kumagae in Pine hurst. This year he will probably be paired with Harold Throckmorton in the doubles event. Samuel Hardy, the prom- inent Chicago player, will be on hand, together with J. D. E. Jones of Provi dence, R. I., who is at home on the Pine hurst courts. Mr. S. W. Merrihew, edi tor and proprietor of the American Lawn Tennis Journal, is already in Pinehurst and will contend in the tour nament, and Mr. Edwin F. Torrey, Pres ident ()f the American Lawn Tennis Association is on hand. The tournament will be conducted . by Mr. . Croker, . who has had charge of previous tournaments in Pinehurst. The list of entries among the men players includes F. C. Baggs, Kenneth Simmons, H. C. Wick, Jr., R. B. Bidwell, Julian Myrick, N. R. Sin clair, R. E. Rowse, A. H. Chapin, Jr., Norman Johnson, Fred A. Otis,. J. M. Newton, F. W. Lambeth, E. B. Weeden, Sigmund Spaethe, Harvey Flint,. Louis Graves, Gregory S. Bryan, Arthur Sweetser, Carlton Schaefer and H. W.

C; she will motor over on Thursday of this week for the purpose of giving a little exhi bition of her shooting skill. Annie Oakley is always to be counted on in aiding worthy causes. It will be re membered that she recently gave an ex hibition at the Gun Club for the benefit of the Farm Life School at Eureka, N. ,C, another Sand Hill institution of in terest to visitors from the North, and by the sale of marked pennies, autographs, etc., raised considerably over $100.00 for the school.
