In Tennis Play
u. S. Champion Defeats
Mile. Bourgeois and
Advances to 4tEl Round

ST. CLOUD, France, May 31.--Mrs.
Molla Bjurstedt Mallory, American ma
tional champion, continued her victor
ious path toward the final round of the
worlds hard court championship lawn
tennis tournament to-day, defeating
Mile Bourgeois, of France, by a score
of rs, SD, in the third round Of the
singles. The French girl, one of the
forced Mrs. Mallory surprisingly hard,
it being thought before they began
play that the American champion
would win without trouble.
Mile. Suzanne Lenglen, the present
worlds grass and hard court cham
pion, scored another impressive victory
to-day, crushing Mile. Deve. of Paris,
under a score Of 60, 60. in the three
matches she has played to date in the
tournament Mile. Lcnglen has not lost
a game in the singles. Another French
player, Nine. Vausard, won her third
round match this afternoon, defeating
Miss Holman, of England, by a score
of 6-3. 6-3.
William T. Tiden I'd. worlds turf
court champion among the men, paired
with Arnold w. Jones, of Providence,
r. l., defeated the Spanish pair,
by score of So, 4-6 6-8, 6-3,
8-6. 1t was Tilden's great playing in
the last two sets that saved the day
for the American pair, even though it
was also "Big Bills" continual poach-
ing on his young partners court that
involved the team in difficulties many
times and made a hurricane finish
necessary to win.
In Tlden's eagerness to aid young
Jones he continually left big open
lngs in the court, with the result that
Alfonso, who was very effective at the
net, often scored on clean place
ment aces. When it came down to the
crucial test, however, Tilden uncov-
cred a streak of sustained brilliance
