...tall, blond young man who looks very much as if he posed for those selling-talk advertisements: "Are you a success?" A certain energy of photographic personality has made him a star. It is apparently the plan of his employers to make him a humorous asset to their fortunes. In I'll Show You the Town he was funny. In Where Was I? he is bent on disproving that he married a certain lady in Washington, Dec. 9, 1923. He-or rather it-is not so funny...

Fred Lamprecht, Tulane?cut their way to the finals. In the title match, Westland clung close to par. Lamprecht would have none of it. He cracked out three consecutive 34-5, the first two of which shaved the course record, then holed two more fours to scuttle Westland...
Tilden vs. Richards. Three times in the last fortnight Champion William T. Tilden II has faced blond, pouting Vincent Richards, his protegé, his rival. Three times the lank champion has carried off the victory-first at a benefit match at Forest Hills, L. I., 6-3, 8-6; then for the Metropolitan Court Championship at the New York Tennis Club, 6-3, 6-3, 6-4; for the third time in the finals of the Eastern New York State Championships at New Rochelle...
