At Mexico City, Yankee Doodle came to town, riding on the railroad; stuck all the feathers in his cap and called it a day. The feathers were Mexico’s national tennis titles. Those who took turns being Yankee Doodle: Vincent Richards, singles; Vincent Richards and Ray Casey, doubles; Mary K. Browne, singles; Charlotte Hosmer and one Miss Tennant, doubles. Richards was also Yankee Doodle in the 1923 Mexican singles.
