all time, sajd had absolutely no
future in the game.

He made Tilden look bad with
what he did.
Ajlison won the National Col
legiate championship while at the
University of Texas. He recalls
an amusing incident on that oc-
cnkiUn—that is, amusing to the
crowd.
S<| anxious was Allison to show
his sportsmanship that us soon ns
the match elided he ran (b jump
the net so he might congratulate
his opponent. It hud ruined and the
court was muddy. Allison caught
his foot in the net and fell flat
on his face.

mising. He played in nine tourna-
•mcnts and lost in the first round
of each. He ended up with only his
train fare home plus a nibkle. He
bought a candy bar and that was all
the food he had returning home.
Allison, now an Austin business
man, was picked almostr Unani
mously by Texas sports writers as
the greatest tennis player ip this
state for the 50 years—1900 to
1950. '

The only other players receiv

Lodis Thalheimer, who also starred
in tennis at the University of

figure in the game. Thalheimer
