Lawn tennis ball protest may split the sport
Trouble brews over which ball to use in official play. Veteran Reymond Little plans to protest to the United States national lawn tennis association claiming the retired ball altered his strokes while opponents trained with it. Other experts from the New York Japan tennis club and officials like William A. Larned weigh the issue as a possible tournament throwout. The coming Newport championship may force a standard ball for Americans and English players.
