Charlottetown Association Look Forward To Banner Season——Im- provement Of Club Grounds.

Thefllniill meeting oi the Char-

lottetown Tennis Club was held last evening in the Y. M. C. A. Parlors. The increailng popularity oi tennis wu evident from the reports read by the Secretary Treasurer. Ti) years ago it was found necessary to en- mge the club grounds at Victoria Park by the addition oi two new courts in order to accommodate the demands for membership and the maximum membership was accord- ingly raised irom loo to 125. Tile membership to: 192a was 127 so that the question is agai nacute and cau- tion must necessarily be exercised thh season in the admission o! new mem- hers.

‘Cliff Bricker And John Miles Canadian Hopes

Boston Writer PicksBricker to do Well in Big Marathon Coming Friday -—The Weather has Lot To Do ,Witl1_l\£i_l_es.

(By ARTHUR DUFFY)

Cllli Brlcker oi Gait, Ont., will be Canada's pride in the big Boston Marathon to be run over the roads irom Hopkinton to Boston, Patriot's Day. Already having a. reputation oi being one o1 the greatest long dis tanco runners that Canada ever pro- duced, Bricker is being favored by those in the know to irot home a- cross the line a winner in the com- ing American Marathon champion- ship. .

Not Entered Yet.

Bricker as yet has not sent in his entry io the coming Boston race,

Little Johnny Miles also is expected to be one ofCanadag strongest con- tenders in ihe race again this year. Johnny is now employed in the tire business in Hamilton, Ontario. since he~leit hLs home in Sydney Mines, Nova scotia. A week ago he won a l5-mile race in fine time, and deleat- ed no less a contender than Reynolds another one oi Canada's sirongest competitors. Johnny has not officially announced that he will be in the Bos- ton Marathon. What is keeping him back more than ever is the climatic conditions in Boston. I! he was assur- ed that he was going to have a cold day there would be no hesitancy in him sending in his entry. But as he says, "It ii; is a warm day I might

hilt I have it from tthe best o! au- thority irom some or my staunch Canadian friends that when the runners are finally called out for the 2B miles. 38b yards’ jaunt. that this remarkable runner _wil1 be right there in the from". line of starters. Strange though it may seem. Bricker has had a rather meteoric career in the long distance running game, though when he has come to the scratch in some o! the most import- ant races he has tailedto show his real prowess. but no one will deny that he is not u. fine performer. Already he has been a starter in the Boston race and finished fourth two years ago. when he should have won. Ho iinishbd as strong as a lion and his Canadian Iollowcrs wonder- ed why he did not win. Olympic games he was acnt to Am-

ympic Mardthoh and was selected as a favorite; but he finished iar in the ruck, and Marathoner-s are still won-

Miles. it will be recalled. won the Boston Marathon in 1926. He was the rankest outsider there ever was. No one gave him a chance. and when he won‘ that year everybody wondered how he defeated such stars as De Mar and Stem-cos. But Miles was in the condition oi a. iiietime. He came back to the Boston race the following year, but it was not the same old Johnny Miles. Johnny was right, but it was one oi the warmest days, and after running eight mile; ha was iorced to quit. While either or both o! these runners in the grand derby this year, speculation is rlie as to whether a Canadlamor an American will run away with the honors. Local Marathoners are slow to pick a win- ner, but they say ii Bricker is in his best iorm nothing short oi an earth- quake can prevent him irom winning. They donot fear Miles so much. Besides these two foremost Can- adians. Nova Scotin will send a roimidable array o! plodders to the Boston race. Although all the con- tended: have not been entered as yet Hugh McLeod oi Watertown. N. 8.; Hector Corcoran oi Lunenburg. N. 5.; and Billy Taylor oi Halifax will make a strong trio. There is just a1 much rivalry among the Nova Scotiang to win the Boston race and defeat either Bricker or Miles as any
