Talking It Over WITH JOE WILLIAMS

NEW YORK, Jan. 25.—One sees a great number of strange . faces around the Garden these days. Not the least strange of these Is a round boyish face that smiles out at you under the rim of a tilted derby. You blink and look again and darned if it isn’t Vincent Richards, the amateur tennis star who turned straight two years ago, when "Cash 3nd Carry" Pyle dangled $25,000 in front of his sensitive snubber.

a a a Richards has an office on the fifth floor of the fight temple. Around the walls are pictures of tennis headliners—Tildcn, LaCoste, Cochet and Kozeluh, the great professional . . . and fashio table scenes of stirring court battles at Seabright, Germantown and Forest Hills. a u n IT SEEMS RICHARDS HAS DECIDED TO BECOME THE FATHER OF PROFESSIONAL TENNIS IN THIS COUNTRY. HIS EXPERIENCES WITH PYLE AND LATER ON AN AMERICAN TOUR WITH KOZELUH CONVINCED HIM. HE SAYS. THERE IS A PLACE IN THE ATHLETIC SCHEME OF THINGS FOR PROFESSIONAL TENNIS. a a a SO he has moved into the Garden, established headquarters and taken over the top floor which is •now in the process of being converted into an indoor tennis club. When completed it will be used for private instructions, exhibitions and very likely professional tournaments. It is the most ambitious project of its kind this side of Mars. 'Mr. Richards is backing his faith in the scheme to the extent of $60,000. a a a “That is practically all the faith I can command,” he admitted today, as he stood among the cluttered disorder of scantlings, implements and materials watching ->ut the eight •’tuts r. h ike up the .Va-VROC ONLY RECENTLY RE-SS-COUNTRY HE CZECHOSLOVAKIAN. WHOM HE PLAYED TWENTY EXHIBITIONS, WIN- ! NINO ONLY FIVE. a a a •■JkyTY overhead was bigger than I JVJ. counted on,” laments Rich- i ards. “I hadn’t been warned about i Xozeluh’s appetite. I bet John j Ringling can ieed a herd of ele-! ptwits for less than it takes to keep that fellov properly fueled." a a a ! In spite of this Mr. Richards bails the Czecho-Slovakian as the greatest tennis player in the world today. “It will be a fine thing if that open tournament proposed for Philadelphia develops next summer,” he thinks. “This would bring the leading amateurs in competition with the best of the professionals. f SE KOZELUH ■ Y COMPRISE IS PS or'..-' ’ I THINK I i A PRETTY GOOD ■ ? 1 AM NOT AS ■Y SEVERAL etio. i DON T KNOW ANYBODY WHO WOULD FIGURE TO BEAT HIM.” u n o VINCENT was asked if this went for Tilden. His answer was that it did. One reason for Kozeluh’s formidability, according to Richards is his endless stamina and energy. “He would win Pyles bunion derby and an hour later still have enough power left to crush ar> opponent in a long tennis fight.” a a a Kozeluh is back in his native country. In May he will coach the English Davis Cup players. After which he will return to America to resume operations under Richards’ management. a a a •-but THIS TIME HE'LL PAY FOR HIS OWN EATS.” DECLARES VINNIE.

Bulldogs All Set to Tangle

Open Season for Holdouts Has Arrived Magnates Struggle to Get Stars’ Signatures on Contracts. BY GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK. Jan. 25.—The open season for holdouts has arrived and included in the first group of baseball stars to express dissatisfaction over the terms of their 1929 contracts are Mickey Cochrane, Jess Haines, Buddy Myer and the Waner brothers. Cochrane seems the most serious holdout- The peppy Philadelphia Athletics’ catcher, awarded the American League’s most valuable player prize last season, was so surprised when he read the salary offered him, he exclaimed: “Why, there’s been a mistake! This can't be my contract.” Waners Unsigned Both Lloyd and Paul Waner have returned their unsigned contracts to the Pittsburgh Pirates. Sam Dreyfuss, treasurer of the club, however, denies they are holdouts. Jess Haines, one of the bitterest holdouts of two seasons ago, talked terms recently with Branch Rickey, vice-president of the St. Louis Cardinals, and failed to sign a contract. Haines won twenty games and lost eight last season and included among his victories were eight straight during the hard drive for the pennant. In 1926 Haines won twenty-four games and lost ten. On this record Haines believes he is entitled to the highest salary on the Cardinals. Myer Lone Holdout Although only twelve out of thir-ty-two players of the Washington Senators’ squad have signed their contracts, Buddy Myer, third baseman acquired from the Boston Red Sox in a trade for five players, is believed to be the only holdout. The Brooklyn Robins may encounter considerable difficulty before they get all of their players signed. Although the contracts were mailed out two weeks ago, none of the regulars has returned them signed. The situation is almost the reverse with the New York Yankees who have eight of their regulars signed, including Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig and Herb Pennock.
