MISS WILLS AGAIN
WINS DECISIVELY
Schoolgirl Defeats Two Strong
Opponents With Loss of
One Game.

Another meeting between Mrs. Molla
Mallory and Miss Helen Wills is In
prospect. They are In opposite halves
OF the draw in the invitation tennis
tournament OF the Rockaway Hunting
Club which opened yesterday on the
turf courts at Cedarhurst and should
come through to the cup round as read
Ily as they did In the national cham
pionship two weeks ago and In the
Longwood invitation tournament last
week.
Again the sixteen-year- California
schoolgirl showed remarkably effective
tennis as she advanced through two
rounds with the loss OF only one game
in four sets. Miss Marion Chapman.
New Jersey State title holder. was un-
able to make any headway at all
against the versatile. hard hitting and
sl<iliful game of The Pacific coast tennis
prodigy. being beaten in two love sets
IN TIE, second round. Earlier In the day
Miss Wills eliminated Mrs. l.. NJ. Burt
nt GO. 6--l. Her puzzling change OF
pace and change OF length and her
severity az stroke proved too strong a
combination for her opponents.
Mrs. Mallory after drawing a bye In
the first round defeated Miss Rosamond
Newton or Boston, Go. 6-f. At the
completion OF the second round there
were only nine survivors. Besides Miss
wills and Mrs. Mallory they are Miss
Leslie Bancroft of Boston, national
semi-finalist: Mrs. De Forest Candee OF
New York. Miss Phyllis Walsh and MISS
Virginia Carpenter both of Philadel-
phia, Miss Florence Ballin, Miss Mar
garet Grove and Miss Clare Cassei.
Miss Ballin was carried into extra sets
in both the first and second rounds,
but won the last division OF play In
each case declsively. Her opponents
were Mrs Bernard f. Stenz and Miss
Agnes Sherwood.
Tho hardest tussle of the day, an
extra set match between Miss Grove
and Miss Cassel. was halted by a thun-
derstorm IN the final division OF play.
1t was sharp hitting base line duel
most OF the way. with the rallies un-
usually long and the getting brilliant
In every game. The summary:
