Handy and Mrs. II. T. Eaton In straight

the majority OF the rallies with timely
volleys and she was equally impressive

semi-fnal matches they defeated Miss
Marie Wagner and Miss Glare Cassel.
ca, 6-2. The latter pair had ad-
vanced earlier In the day at the expense
Of Miss Margaret Grove and Miss Phyllis
Walsh in an extra set tussle. Miss
Wagners steadiness and skill in finish
ing off points at the net earned that
victory.

As regards the singles final this after
In 1917. during an exhibition tour Of the
country for the benefit of the Red Cross
Fund, Miss Browne won by far ma
jority of her matches with Mrs. Mallory,
then Miss Molla Bjurstedt, and clearly
proved the all around superiority OF her
game. But there may be a surprise for
those who are picking to-days winner
on the strength OF that record. Mrs.
Mallory has had one or two successful
and one or two mediocre years on the
court since then, but the opinion Is al
most unanimous that she is at her best
right now that never before has she
played as well. II Is Just a question
whethcr Miss Brownies greater versa
tility and daring net attack will prevail
ever the wonderfully powerful driving,
cvceptional speed. control and stamina
OF Mrs. Mallory.
Julian S. Myrick, president Of the
United States Lawn Tennis Association.

Bundy and Mrs. Mallory that the "asso-

II she has the sincere thanks of the

of the public. who have sc greatly en-
ioyed her return to the 2 urts." The
