Outlook Better For Big
Tennis Year, Says Hall
‘Wilmer Allison and Oth
ers Expected to Bring
Davis Cup Back Home 1
(This is sixth of a series
written especially for the As
sociated Press by netional
sports leaders on results of |
1935 and prospects for 1936.) |
By WALTER MERRILL HALL
i (President, U. 8. Lawn Tennis
E Association)
| NEW YORK.—(#)—l believe we‘
can look ahead to the tennis sea
'son of 1936 with assurance of a
|mnst satisfactory year, There has
been ample evidence of the con
‘tmued growth of public interest
in the game, not only from the
standpoint of attendance at our
'tournaments and championships
but what is more important, the
constant increase in the amount of
play at our elubs, public parks and
private courts.
Our American zone of the Davis
Cup’ competition will in 1936 re
ceive renewed stimulus and zest
from the Australian challenge in
this one which insures a high
quality of competitive sport right
from the start of the season.
It also seems most probable that
this year's women’s tennis will be
enlivened by a return to competi
tion in American tournaments of
our former champion and present
British champion, Mrs. Helen
Wills Moody, and that our cham
pionships will be climaxed by an
other epochal match between Mrs
Moody and our present champion
lMiss Helen Jacobs, which will be
|of immense public interest.
‘While our men’s Davis Cup team
faltered last year in the challenge
round against England and was
beaten, it should not be overlook
‘ed that they won the inter-zone
final against Germany, winner of
the European zone, and that there
are significant elements of encour
agement in the result of our Am
erican championship later in the
| season when for the first time in
three years, an American player
won our singles champignship.
Our assoclation is bending every
effort to promote further develop
lment of high grade play among
ltha large - number of promising
vounger American players,
The experiment of combining
our men's and women's national
singles championship cournaments
into one event last year proved
a definite succes¢, judging from
the practically unanimous appro
val of both the players and public,
land will be continued in 1936.

Every Cub to Get
Salary Increase;
Owner Wrigley Says
By PAUL MICKELSON
Associated Press Sports Writer
CHICAGO.—(#)—The big Wrig
ley bank roll, once the pride and
,joy of the winter ivory marts,
‘caused a great celebration at Mt.
i]da, Ark., and all other winter
‘hnadquarters of the Chicago Cubs
champions today.
Instead of being used ty huy a
playver at five or six figures, the
femous bank roll was being peel.d
lto give every one of 23 Cubs a pay
|boost for 1936.
| Elated over the proof of his
hageball theory that rewards to
hustling players are more impor
tant to a team's success than the
pmichase of a star a year, owner
Phil K. Wrigley announced last
night that all his players would
receive a raise in salary next sea
gen. Except to say that no player
would be disappointed, the youth
ful Cub owner refused to discuss
the range of wage increases.
Owner Wrigley’s action probably
marks the first time in major lea
gue baseball history that a whole
club from manager down to the
|lowest paid regular received a pay
|boost at one time. Colonel Jake
Ruppert of the Yankees and the
late Frank J. Navin of Detroit
have been liberal but neither went
as far as Wrigley has gone.
“(3et young players, develop
them, reward them liberally as
they improve,” he said. “Such a
system will do far more good and
bring far greater success than to
go out on the market with SIOO,-
000 and buy an established star.”
Lonnie Warneke, pitching star
who won the two Cub victories in
the World Series last fall, was ex
pected to be the chief beneliciary
of the wholesale wage increase.
Catcher Leo (Gabby) Hartaett,
Outfielders Augie G alan and
Frank Demaree and Pitcher Bill
Lee also were known to be in line
for exceptional good news, TUnder

his gloves into any ring at any
time againtt Joe Lipps, Jack
Dempsey’s boxer in the White
Hope' tournament.,
Mickey told the Banner-Herald
last night that it was one of his
highest ambitions to fight his old

Several years ago Joe Lipps and
Mickey were throwing gloves at
each other on numerous occasions.
The Athens fighter said last
might that he was ready to fighe
the highly touted Lipps or any
other fighter in the next few
weeks. Since being shoved into
the limelight of the coming tour

Out of a Worry
NEW' YORK —{#)-— The Bos-|
ton Red Sox have settled in a sim-!
ple manner one problem that
threatened to be a severe headache'
to owner Tom Yawkey and Busl-
ness Manager Eddle cCollins.
They tore up Jimmie Foxx’s old
contract, which still had two years
to run, signed him to a new one
year document reputedly at a
somewhat higher salary, and hush
ed the threat of a holdout that
might “have had a .serlous effect
on the club. .
Before the Athletics sold him to
Boston, Foxx had announced he
would demand a higher salary if
traded. He came into the fold aft
er a brief conference in Yawkey's
office here yesterday, according =
reported figure of $25,000 instead of
the $17,500 he was understood to
have received from the A’s.
With Foxx in line it is expected
Boston will have little trouble

fought in Charlotte, Norfolk, West

Joe Stripp Does
Not Forget; Pays
Off Debt to Kids
ORLANDO, Fla. — (#) — A free
winter training camp school for
youngsters is Joe Stripp's way of
saying “thanks” for their atten
tion when he was laid up with a
broken leg.
The Brooklyn Dodger third base
man lost his heart two years ago
to th “bunch of pals” who broughe
a S4O basket of fruit to the hos
pital.
Since then he hasn’'t missed a
chance to lend a helping hand.
In the school here Stripp has
“students” from 10 years old up
ward. His youngest is little Jimmyr
Barnhost, Orlando, “a coming right
hander if there ever was one/’”
Stripp says.
The oldest is John Scully, 17
vear old New York high school lad,
whom the Dodger describes as
“really a find.” Stripp claims
Scully will be ready for the ma
jors in less than a year “and he
will never go to the minors.”
The boys train three times a
week and follow the same schedule
as the big leaguers due in Florida
next month for the opening of the
training camps.
At Brooklyn, Stripp’s “bunch of
pals” elected him president of the
“Stripp Athletic Club,” which plays
baseball in regulation uniforms —
paid for by Stripp.

between Jimmy Hudson, Marion
Wilkes and Raymond Mitchell.
