Helen Wills Scores I'm
pressive Victory in
Tennis Court

PARIS, July 15.-The Ameri-
can crew won, tho American girl
swimmers took the first three
places in the 400 meters swim,
Helen Wills scored an impressive
and important victory on the
courts, where all the Americans
except Frances T.. Hunter, won
their matches, and American
boxers started knocking over
their opponents in the velo-
drome d Hiver-altogether it
was quite a successful day for
the u. S. at the Olympics.
Helen Wills victory over
Mrs. Satterthwaite of England
in the second round of the wo-
men s singles was particularly
pleasing because of the brilliant
form shown by the California
girl, who liked the hard courts
and won in straight sets, 81, SO
looking much better than she
did in England.

WATER, NOT LIQUOR
Phila. Man Claims Dry Agents Did Not Return Liquor As Court OrjcrcJ

Philadelphia, Nov. 14. - Allega- lions that s75,00O worth of whiskey which the federal courts ordered prohibition agents to return him, were not returned, and that an at tempt was made to give him bar rels contiping water, vinegar and rose perfume" were made before Federal Judge Thompson today by James M. Nicely, former owner of a local cafe. Nicely also alleged that a man approached him with an offer to return the liquor flor a price"
 The chafges were made during technical contempt of court pro- ceedings against John T. Davis, for mer prohibition director of Pennsyl- vania. Federal officials said the charge against Davis had been made only to bring Meely's case before the court and to start an investigation.
 Meely's, cafe was raided by pro- hibition agents in March, 1922. Forty barrels of whiskey were seized in an adjoining building, also occu- pied by Nicely. Judge Thompson quashed the warrant against Nicely and ordered the liquor returned.
