Shamateurs
Richard Ely Danielson is a master of fox hounds (Groton Hunt), edits The Sportsman (sport monthly), has no time for any but amateur sports. In the September issue of his magazine he flays William Tatem Tilden II, unfrocked racqueteer, for endorsing cigarets, giving interviews for pay, otherwise professionalizing sacrosanct tennis. Says Foxhunter-Editor Danielson: "We believe that the game should be cleansed ... of the shamateurs who now dominate it."
