Most Prominent Players of
Metropolitan District
Are in Draw

The annual invitation lawn tennis
tournament for women was started
yesterday afternoon on the picturesque
clay courts of the Ardsley Club at
Ardsley- on Hudson with field of forty
players in the draw. among whom
we're all the most prominent players of
The metropolitan district, including
Miss Molla Bjurstedt, national cham
rion; Mrs. Homer Stuart Green, Miss
Marie Wagner, New York State title
holder Miss Eleanor Goss, runncr-up
for the national indoor championship
last March, and Mrs. Rawson l.. Wood,
former champion of Florida.
Miss BJurstedt won two matches il
the course of the day, Miss Gertrude
Della Tore and Mrs. H. f. Morse, who,
as Miss Marion Vanderhoef, met +he
Morse girl in the final round of the
women's national tournament at Phila
delphia last year, being her victims
Mrs. Morse fought pluckily from back
court and forced the champion into
several hard-fought rallies before the
inevitable end came.
But it was Mrs. Green who per-
formed in brilliant manner yesterday.
In her first match she took the measure
of Mrs. Wood in straight sets, win
ming at 6-3. 6-3, and then she en-
countered Mrs. David c. Mills, of South
Orange. and came through to victory
again, this time at 60, 6-1.
Mrs. Green was as steady as the Old
Guard at Waterloo from back court,
and kept her opponents continually on
the run by her splenddly placed fore
hand drives through deep court No
placed shot seemed too difficult for her
to get, and when she wished to finish
or the paints quickly she advanced to
the net for dazzling volleys.

Mrs. Green, vanqrished Mrs Johan

will receive congratulations today
on the fiitieth anniversary Of
her birth Victoria is one
OF the bestowed members Of the Brit

Of the prcttiest princcsses in Europe,

ago. Gossip has often allied her with
royal gentlemen on the continent but
it proved to be gossip only. More sub
stantial, it is believed, were the rumors

pretty Victoria had given her heart and

and that the match had been broken off
by Queen Victoria, who is said to have
