'Allison ought! to know. He played the game with the world’s best in the time of Tilden and other tennis immortals and has kept a close connection with the sport thrbokh the. years, y The man who was national champion and was on the Davis Cup team for nine years^now sells airplanes. But he still gets ; in his licks on the court. He was Jreferee of the National Collegiate Athletic Association tournament in Austin and observed that while; tennis players of today are probably no better than 2!> years rigo there are many more good players than there were then. The junior program is responsible, Allison says. ! The nfle that prohibits a player from: tajeing part in more than eight tournaments with expenses paid haa cut down materially on the* !jt e ri nis [bums,” Allison de- clares.

That’s pretty cheap to get to go all over the, wotld. I visited 20 countries. In Allison’s day the playera were allowed a maximum of $8 a dfiy to live on, plus traveling ex penses. Now thriy are allowed $12 a day. 1 Even $hat, Allison says, will not meet the actual expense but it won’t cost nearly' as much from a fellow's own pocket as it did when the stars could play as many tournaments as they wanted during a year. “In other words, the Incentive to be a tennis bum has been removed,” Allison says, United States Lawn Association doesn’t want a . er to come out ahead oa ex ses or equipment, .
