MRS. MALLORY PLAYING

By the Associated Press.

MONTE CARLO, March 3-Molla
Bjurstedt Mallory, American woman

twice yesterday in the Monte Carlo
tournament.
Paired with Miss Howett a youth

girl, and the Franco American pair

Earlier in the day Mrs. Mallory had

Mrs. Satterthwaite, England, 60.
6-1.
Mrs. Mallory won in the mixed
doubles with Wallis Meyers. defeat
ing Miss Fowler and Greig Of Eng
land. 6-4. 6-4.
Interest centered in the meeting of
Lenglen and Mrs Mallory in the dou-
bles. All the experts seemed agreed
that Mrs. Mallory must improve so
per cent If she is to get a chance to
meet Lenglen in the final of the sin
giles at Mentone next week.
Mrs. Mallory's old punch" seemed
gone. Her famous forehand drive
either landed in the net or went out
side. Her backhand stroke-always
her weak spot-waS absolutely use
less, and Mrs. Satterthwaite, as well
as Mile. Lenglen; kept the ball always
far to Mrs. Mallory's left
Most significant of all in the de-
feats of Mrs. Mallory was the list
less way in which she played. 1t was
this fact, more than anything else
that led the experts to declare that
there seemed a possibility the present
year might see the passing of another
champion.
Mile. Lenglen directed four-fifths of
her shots at Mrs. Mallory in an evil
dent, effort to make the doubles as
much of singles competition as pos
sible. Mrs. Mallory got the worst of
the exchanges every time. Accord
ing to the experts. Mrs. Mallory on
her present form would be lucky if
she succeeded in winning a game in a
singles match with Lenglen.
