HELEN WILLS TO

by United Press Leased wire

BERKELEY, Calf, Aug. 2s.-
The girl who put Berkeley on the
map with a racquet heard round
the world will be back home again
today, but no brass band or silk hat
ted gentleman will meet her at the
station.
Helen Wills, who has won more
tennis honors than any other girl
of her age in the history of the
game, has asked that there be no
fuss and feathers over her arrival.
She's pretty weak on the heroine
stuff.
But as to an unofficial welcome
that IS quite another matter. From
all reports it appeared as if every
one who is not bedridden will be
down along the track to do hom-
age to the queen of tennis.
