TILDEN ADVISES WOMEN
AGAINST STRENUOUS PLAY
“If I can convince women that they
are not pbyslc^ly able to hold out tor
three sets of net play la tennis, I shall
feel that I' have done women’s tennis
a good turn," said “Big Bill” Tilden
to a group of three*hundred Meredith
tennis enthusiaatg Wednesday after
noon, April 3rd. The tennis king paid
a visit to the college campus while in
Raleigh on a tour with Vines, Lott and
Btoelfon.
Mr. Tilden said that this Is a day
in which men and women compete on
equal footing In most Qelds. However,
there are deflnito physical limitations
to the prowess of women in athletics,
and it is not wise for them to attempt
to compete with men on the same
grounds. Of the many women players
he has seen, Including the two out
standing women players, Helen Wills
and Helen Jacobs, he has never seen
one who was able to stand against the
terrific strain of net play. For this
reason, Mr. Tilden advised women to
develop strong forehand and backhand
strohes, using mainly long cross-court
drives. He stated that women who
used this method of play were just as
great, if not greater, artists in tennis
as those who played a net game.

Hair, that has been pinned up in
screw curls all day, is miraculously
transformed Into glistening ringlets;
noses that outshone the stars are pow
dered and smooth, and' cheeks, pale at
noon time, glow like the rising sun—
when you have a caller in the parlor.
The familiar old campus skirt is re
placed by a long trailing one and com
pany manners are presented. For sim
ply liours and hours (seven-thirty until
eight) the weather is discussed. After
fully developing this topic you suggest
a short stroll around the Senior parlor.
By ^king short steps, pausing to speak
and slowing down to pass other hikers,
you may kill ton minutes.
Then upon your return, you’ll find
the couch that once was yours has been
seized. Giving the new possessors a
Alwoys give gifts that will lost.

If your date is thoughtful, he may
produce a crossword puzzle or the ma

about 9:45, you begin to remember all
the things you must tell him. Me also
discovers that he has left much unsaid
and words fall thick and fast. Then
with a shock you hear the loud clang

“Goodnights,” “call me,” and “I’ll see

way while he goes his.
