to the semi-final round where she lost
to Mrs. Marian zinderstein Jess1p,

Several weeks later at the Nassau

the fourth round of the Metropolitan
championships where she was again
defeated by Mrs. Jessup in a more
closely contested match at 62 and GA.
Mrs. Jessup winning only through ex-

At the Seabright tournament she
reached the third round before being
defeated by Miss Eleanor Goss, No.
on this years list. The score was 6-2.
4-6 and 6-2, Miss Goss being pushed
to the limit.
At Longwooi she easily defeated

and then she went into the girls
championship at Forest Hills and so
completely outclassed the field that
there was no contest.
She then returned to California and
won the Pacific Coast championship,

(By 1. n. S.)

NEW YORK. Jan. 20.-Mr John d.
Swain, in recent number of AIunsey's
says, in the course of an article:
OF primitive traits none is older
than the instinct to scare YOUR enemy
first and then lick him. Thousands of
years ago Chinese soldiers beat huge
gongs and went into battle wearing
hideous masks. Cur native redskins
never fought without first carefully
ldisfiguring themselves with streaks
and patches of war paint.
Children-who are primitives-
make faces at one another before hos
Utilities. Gangsters walk stiff-legged,
scowl ferociously, and hiss menacing
threats from the extreme corner of
their sneering lips. The late John L.
Sullivan cultivated'a fighting face, and
had most of his opponents beaten be-
fore he raised his massive arms. His
system is followed today by all
thoughtful pugilists.
| The instinct is even older than hu-
manity. Certain caterplllars are able
to assume a deadly look by erecting
Their hairs and humping their backs,
thus deceiving the early bird.
Yes, all true that, in the days of the
great John L. Sullivan. but they don't
do that any more. John L. was noted
for his scowl After the Dempsey
Carpenter thing last July great
friend of Sullivan was asked by this
writer. Don't you think Dempsey
would have beaten John L.?
The sullivan man frowned and said:
'Why, John L. would Just scowl al
that Dempsey. swing his right to the
chin, and It would be all over in a
round"
That Sullivan man, like the great
John l.. himself, had great faith in
LOOKS. They may have worked in
THE olden days, but not today.
If looks. counted for anything Bull
Montana would be the wrestling ant
boxing champion of the world.
I John Las scowl worked wonders un.
til he met a man of the latter day
school. Jim Corbett.

NEW YORK, Jan. 20.-For some
strange reason the ranking committee
of the United States Lawn Tennis AS

youth.
Vincent Richards, the 'boy wonder
of the courts" had a regular battle for
years to get proper recognition of his
ability, but he succeeded this year
when he was placed third among the
men players.
Perhaps, little Miss Helen Wills, the
seventeen-year old sensation from San
Francisco, will have the same ex-
perience as Richards. She at least, is
starting out that way.
