  • Wilmer Lawson Allison Jr W5VV *1904-1977* Wilmer Born in San
    ilmer Lawson Allison Jr W5VV *1904-1977* Wilmer born in San Antonio was an American amateur tennis champion of the 1930's. With all of this, how could our subject find W time for ham radio activities? Allison’s career was somewhat overshadowed by the arrival of Don Budge, but he was both a fine singles player and along with his frequent partner, John Van Ryn, a great doubles player. Right-handed, Allison’s greatest triumph was winning the 1935 U.S. Championship singles, defeating Fred Perry in the semi- finals and Sidney Wood in the finals. He had previously lost to Perry in the fifth set in the 1934 finals. He was ranked U.S. No.1 both years and World No.4 in 1932 and 1935. At Wimbledon, Allison lost the 1930 title to Bill Tilden. As a doubles player with partner John van Ryn, Allison won the 1929 and 1930 Wimbledon and 1935 U.S. doubles championships. Allison’s last major tournament was a 1936 quarter-final loss to Bunny Austin. At the University of Texas at Austin, Allison was the Intercollegiate tennis champion in 1927. In his 1979 autobiography Jack Kramer, who had a fine volley himself, devotes a page to the best tennis strokes he had every seen. He writes: “Forehand Volley – Wilmer Allison of Texas, who won the 1935 Forest Hills, had the best I ever saw as a kid and I’ve never seen anyone since hit one better.” George Lott, who himself won 5 U.S doubles titles as well as 2 at Wimbledon, wrote an article May 1973 issue of Tennis Magazine in which he ranked the great doubles teams and the great players.

  • Tennis and World War II
    Tennis & War: World War II Overview: As students learn about conflicts throughout history, they will also learn about the tennis players/Hall of Famers who participated in these conflicts, whether on the battlefield or on the home front. The activities that accompany this unit are geared toward students in 6th-8th grade. These activities encompass review of Common Core Standards mastered at previous grade levels as well as Common Core Standards Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects and English Language Arts Writing to be mastered at the students’ current grade level. Objectives: Students will be able to- ● Form an understanding of the way these wars impacted everyday life ● Activate background knowledge regarding World War II ● Gain an understanding of the conflict and how the tennis players’ lives were impacted by the conflict Lesson Time Suggested: Two periods Don Budge In 1938, John Donald Budge became the first player in history to accomplish what had previously been considered the unattainable: he won the singles championships at Australia, France, Wimbledon, and the United States, completing the first ever Grand Slam. With those victories came a rarified place among the tennis elite. 1937 to 1938 was a spectacular chapter in Budge’s illustrious career. Notwithstanding his Grand Slam, in both 1937 and 1938 Budge won all three Wimbledon championships – singles, doubles, and mixed doubles. In 1938 he crushed the field without losing a set, the first player in history to sweep the field in such a fashion, and in the final he deposed of Britain’s Bunny Austin. Afterwards, Austin said, "Donald was unstoppable that afternoon, almost unplayable at times.

  • Bill Tildens Performances of the Unruly Male Body
    Taking Punishment Gladly; Bill Tildens Performances of the Unruly Male Body N a t h a n T i t m a n * American Studies University o f Iowa Although historians have read the athleticism o f seven-time national tennis cham­ pion Bill Tilden as a cover for his sexual identity, his playing style was very much a product o f his existence outside normative gender expectations in the 1920s. Tennis allowed Tilden to engage in the homosocial amateur sporting code o f upper-class Northeastemers— establishing psychological intimacy with playing partners, opponents, andprotégés— while also adapting the more “roughneck” and varied techniques o f working-class Californian players into a style that observers celebrated for both its power and its beauty Tilden defied contempo­ rary expectations that bourgeois white men should eventually limit their partici­ pation in leisure and settle down with marriage and stable capitalist produc­ tion, while using athletic movement to bridge gentler categories in the creation o f his own “artistic” self-expression. I n t h e 1920s, Bill Tilden became tennis’ version of a sport celebrity. He won seven national titles in that decade and, in 1920, became the first American man to win fA version of this paper was selected as the 2014 winner of the North American Society for Sport History Graduate Student Essay. Correspondence to [email protected]. Wimbledon. Sports enthusiasts who enjoyed more leisure time and expendable income after World War I craved appealing champion athletes, and Tilden joined the ranks of Babe Ruth, Jack Dempsey, and Red Grange as one of the leading protagonists in the “Golden Age of Sport.”1 However, despite his dominant play and— compared to previous tennis champions— unrivaled celebrity, his arrests in 1946 and 1949 for morals violations with underage boys ultimately rendered him a pariah in the sport, a tragic figure whose sexual proclivities sullied his athletic successes.
