The past season brought the return to American courts of Mrs. May Sutton Bundy
and Miss Mary Browne, in itself an event of sufficient importance to set the
year apart as one of highest value.
The outstanding performances of the two juniors, Vincent Richards and Arnold
Jones, must be regarded as worthy of permanent recognition and among the outstanding
features of a noteworthy year. Thus it is with a sense of recording history-
making facts that I turn to the events of 1921. WILLIAM T. TILDEN 2D
