He admitted important negotiations

Boston Woman
Wins Pelham
Tennis Singles
Mrs. b. E. Cole, of Longwood
Club, Defeats Miss Flor
ence A. Ballin, Is, 6-4
By Fred Hawthorne

Mrs. Benjamin E. Cole, of the Long
wood Cricket Club of Boston, won the
annual womens invitation singles lawn
tennis tournament of the Pelham
Country Club yesterday afternoon by
defeating Miss Florence A. Ballin. of
the West Side Tennis Club, by score
of 7-5, ca, in the final round of the
annual tourney. Miss Helen Gilleau
deau and Miss Marie Wagner won the
women's doubles by vanquishing Mrs.
Lewis Gouverneur Morris and Miss
Margaret Grove at 6-1, 6-1, in the
other final round match.
There was nothing spectacular in the
victory of Mrs. Cole over Miss Ballin,
almost every point being won by back
court play Both made numerous
errors. SO that the final result resolved
itself into question as to which player
would produce the most speed and
pace, and in these particulars Mrs. Cole
was the superior.
In the opening set the Boston star
led at 4-I and So, but was not able
to get within point of the set until
the twelfth game, when she came
through with sizzling forehand drives
so close to the side lines that her op-
ponent was caught aeveral feet short
of position.
In the second set Miss Ballin threat
ened to square the match when she ran
into lead of 4-1, as the result Of q
steady deep court driving duel from
the base line. Mrs. Cole was making
glaring errors at this stage, continually
everd riving +he base line, while Miss
Ballin was earning her points by re-
turns placed so accurately that her op-
ponent was forced to take the ball on
her deep backhand and send back
strictly defensive returns.
With the beginning of the sixth
game, however, the Longwood player
frightened ur in her play and started
to drive with whirlwind speed, the ball
coming so fast into Miss Ballin's court
that the West Side Club player was
frequently not within several feet OF
the ball.
In spite of all that Miss BALM could
do. Mrs! Cole ran away with the next
| five games, giving her the set at "a
and the match. While the Boston star
was guilty of more errors than Miss
I Ballin, her earning sots were more
! than equal to the occasion, and it was
| her ability to take advantage of open
|. ings that brought her victory. Speed
was the deciding factor.
+! Miss Gilleaudeau and Miss Wagner
were in command of the situation at all
! times in the doubles match, with the
! former outplaying Miss Grove and
| Mrs Morris at the net position. The
| latter was not at her best yesterday,
throwing away many points by volley-
ing out of court or into the net on easy
shots, whereas Miss Wagner generally
finished off her points in decisive
! manner.
Miss Gilleaudeau once more proved
herself one of the most Conscientious
and effective court coverers on local
courts, going after every shot, and, in
majority of eases, scoring the win
ming point by dint of spectacular gets.

Although there was a feet that num-

the race committee of the Marine and

seven yachts. The others arrived at

The yachts that were recognized by
the race committee had an interesting

which formerly raced on Long Island
Sound, but which now belongs to Smith
& Brachtel, of the Marine and Field
Club, had no great difficulty in defeat
ing H. Hansen's Virginia.
In the second division the winner
was w. Anderson's May The third di-

of starters, was won by Sylvia, the

Once upon a time, as all Bedtime
stories and as many fables start, a
miracle happened in the whirl of Brit
ish golf
The miracle was this: An outsider, q
Frenchman, named Massey, suddenly
stepped forward and won a British
open championship, with Vardon, Braid
and Taylor, in their prime, defend
ing it.
1t had never happened before. 1t has
never happened since. Always an
Englishman or a Scot, with Vardon,
Taylor and Braid winning sixteen of
the twenty championships played in the
last twenty-five years, five years having
gcne barren on account of the war
"Some day." they used to say, ".Var-
don, Taylor and Braid will be too old.
What then?"
ooh, it will be somebody" was al
ways the confident reply.
And when tho big championship was
resumed at Deal last June the two
"Somebodies" were nominated in ad-
vance.
They were George Duncan and Abe
Mitchell A Scotchman and English
man, double guard
So it happened that when America
sent over Walter Hagen and Jim
Barnes, Great Britain worried very
little.
Good golfers?D % Sure. But not a
Duncan or Mitchell. Mitchell, after
a sensational start, skidded, slipped
and fell back. Duncan, after ragged
start, hit high speed and came through
brilliantly The dope ran true, for one
of the two had interposed the barrier,
with Herd, another Scot, in second
place, followed by Ray and Mitchell.
There were two Scots and two Eng
lishmen ahead of the first entry from
the United States, jim Barnes, of the
Pelham Country Club.
Hagen's finish was too dismal for any
words. He never got below 80 in four
nerve wracking rounds.
Abe and George
Now. another British open champion
ship is approaching and once again
the slogan of the land is Abe or
George. Or George and Abe. The
Scots say it will be Duncan. The Eng
seem to believe that another miracle
lis going to happen and that another
outsider will duplicate Massy's feat
Our stars have failed them too often
before. McDermott failed to qualify
back around 1912, and Hagen failed
to finish among the first fifty in 1920
McDermott and Barnes have both fin.

can golfer has ever come any closer tc
the throne.

open title. But he isn't an American

this order.
Numerous experts concede that
Mitchell is every whit as good a golfer
as Duncan. But Duncan has broken
through and Mitchell hasn't, and that

won. and his dangerous putting always
makes him a factor. In one British
open, the one he won. Ray was in six
traps upon one ne-hole stretch com

Ray is less inclined to be upset than
the other two, but he isn't quite as

wanhaka Corinthian Yacht Club to race
in England this summer, off the club
house of the organization here to-day.
Both contests were won by the Grebe,

signed by Gardner, has been the most
consistent winner in the series so far
this season
The morning brush was from the
clubhouse to Center Island buoy, thence
to Lloyd's Neck bell and thence home.
AS the wind came the craft had reach
to the Center Island mark, followed by
a run and a beat home. The racing has
been exceedingly keen among the craft,

The afternoon brush was the real

will long be remembered by both those
that competed and the fairly large fleet
of pleasure craft that followed the lit
tie racers. Into the whitecapped seas
the little boats poked their noses, toss
ing high the white-crested spray and
drenching all on board. The course
was from off the clubhouse on Center
Island out to the bell buoy off Lloyd's.
then back to the spar buoy off the Bug
Light in Oyster Bay, then back to
