MOLLA'S CROWN
IS IN DANGER
Mary Browne, From the Coast,
Is After That Tennis
Championship

Reports from the coast indicate
that Miss Molla Bursted must look
10 her honors as national tennis
champion this year.
In recent matches Miss BJursted
was defeated by both Mrs May SUIT
ton Bundy and Miss Mary Browne.
Altho n was admitted that Miss
Bjursted was handicapped by play
ing on asphalt courts and by a high
wind. and was not up 10 her usual
game. still coast experts remarked
that the attack OF both Mrs. Bundy
and Miss Browne would have cAus-
ed the Norwegian wonder trouble
under any circumstances.
Miss Brownies game particularly,
II In declared, is far superior 20 any
OF her former efforts. She drives
the ball harder and her backhAnd
strokes are superb. She Ia also
much faster on the courts than for.
merly and her impetuous style com
pleteiy upset Mas Biur-ted's play.
Whether Mrs. Bundy will enter
the national championship events
this year II still doubtful. Mrs Bun
dy has three children, who take
most OF her time, and II was re-
marked that IN her recent matches
on the coast. altho she defeated both
Miss Browne and Mas Bjursted, that
she was not really in the best OF
condition.

Echoing to the command of "Righr! Left" and other orders that accomplish drill maneuvers- tonight the baseball park will for the first itme present a military appearance.
 The skagway home guards will have their first outdoor drill there, starting at 7:3O o'clock.

 The White Pass Athletic club, un- der whose auspices Skagway will take part in the celebration, be- gan yesterday to make arrangement for the event.
