MOLLA, AFTER MANY
YEARS AT TOP, NOW
ON THE DOWNGRADE
Perry Sees Time at Hand
for Woman Tennis Cham
pion to Step DoWn.
BY LAWRENCE PERRY.

Copyright by The san Antonio Light.
New York. March 1.-While Mrs.
Molla Bjurstedt Mallory's Indifferent
play on the Riviera may be due 80
poor health. the fact remains that the
time has come when we must begin
to look for failing form on the part
of our wOmen's champion. Mrs. Nal
lory has been playing a long time now
and lawn tennis is a game in which
the stamina of youth and the agility
and power and coordination thereof
are essential to championship pro-
ficiency.
Indeed. Mrs. Mallory has led our
women players for an extraordinary
number of years and the time is not
remote, if, forSooth. it is not at hand,
when she must yield her laurels to
some younger player. Already in the
background there turks the accomplish
ed Helen Wills. still a mere girl,
whose ability foreshadows the APP
preaching dethronement of the present
title holder.
The American title-hOlder has an
nounced that she will not participate
at st. Cloud and at Wimbledon. But
this is not to be taken as definite.
buSb INV, WIN IDuLuuIlt LtllSltu Slt-
ting on the sidelines, criticizing the
American champions form and per-
haps gloating over her comparative
~ inferior play, Mrs. Mallory may
be stung to a point where she will
go in seriously for tournament tennis
abroad, her idea being to have one
more crack at the GOVERNMENTAL
French girl. Few, however, believe
that she has it in her to defeat Su-
zanne, at least not in Europe.
One American girl who surely will
enter at st. Cloud and Wimbledon is
Miss Leslie Bancroft of Boston, who
rates No. for this year. Miss Ban
croft is rated below such top-notchers
as Mrs. Beamish, Miss Mclean and
Mile. Lenglen, but so rapid have been
her strides in the past few years that
there is no telling what she may do in
Europe. All that may now be said is
that she will supply lot of color to
the tournament in which she enters
and is certain TO be popular. 1t is
understood that the indefatigable
Eleanora Sears will be her doubles
partner.
The defeat of Miss Bancroft in the
Florida state championship by Mrs.
Frank Godfrey can in no sense be
taken ms criterion. Miss Bancroft
has had no work yet on an outdoor
court. Furthermore, she had arrived
AT Palm Beach only the morning pre-
ceding her match.

tively working for a bonus for its
members to be paid by the American
government If the American Legion
could be persuaded to use its influence
with the French government to help
get the interest on the French debt to
America paid, leaders in Congress
would be in a position at once to IA
yor both a bonus and the proposed
Mellon plan for tax reduction.
Mr.. Mellon has estimated that
about $4,000, 100000. and the Ameri-
can Legion has insisted that the an
nual outlay would be only about
5000 900, 600. This is approximately
the interest on the allied debt, ire
spectiye of Great Britain's payments.
The British are paying into the
American Treasury interest OF about
s125, 900, 900 a year.
If sums like this could be obtained
from France and Italy, who together
owe the United States about five bill
lions of dollars, the bonus problem
could easily be solved, either by a
bond Issue or by actual provision in
the annual budget here.
