rugged Norwegian. pitted her skill.
endurance and cunning against the
Parisian's grace repeatedly and lost.
Great Britain sent her best against
Mlle. Lengien. only to see the French
girl friurnpth.
Then came Helen “‘ills.
This seventeen-year.old maid of
the Pacific Coast rose to meteoric
fashion to the heights on this side
‘of the Atlantic She capped a son'-
satlonal season last. year by defeat-
ing Mrs. Mallory after the latter had

for three years.
This is the maid to wrest Miss
Lenglen‘s honors, from her." de-
cided the experts. And Miss “Tiiis‘
playing merited that decision. “‘hen
she led America‘s fair hotter: to
England recently from the world's
championship tourney at “‘ihbic-
don and the Olympic games later it
was generally agreed that the tourn—
oy would—or should—end with Min
“‘ilis meeting Miss Lenglen for the
title.
Illness Alters Plans.
Both stars reached the semi-
finals. Then illness forced Mlle.
Lengien to withdraw from compe-
tition. Miss “'llls remained. The
finals brought her and Miss Kath-
leen McKane. English girl to-
gether. And in a match that. pro-
duced some of the most brilliant
tennis ever seen on the famoul
W‘imbledon courts the British girl
turned back Miss “Wile—matched
her every play and took the point-
in with aggravating regularity.
Miss “'ills won the first set only
to lose the following two and the
match.
“'hen it was all over the experts
were at a loss to explain it.
Miss “'ills' play was steady. She
was accurate in her placements
and during in her returns. Her
powerful stroking, always an im-
portant part of the game. was in
evidence as usual. She. outdrove
Miss McKane consistently.
In only one angle of the game
did Miss McKane seem to have
the edge. That was in close net
play. Her cuts at the net were
deadly. no less. Her backhand re-
turns were little short of marvel.

against the French star indicated
that Mlle. Lengien was calling
upon all her skill before illness
overtook her.
Until the recent tourney Mlle.
Lenglen had not lost a. set in the
“‘imbledon games since the chal~

herself had lost to Suzanne in two
straight sets in that 1319 tourney.

times before they faced each other
