 PARIS, July 20.-Bringing the to glorious peak, demure Helen Wills and youthful Vincent Richards clinched the Olympic tennis championship for the United States in the finals of the singles events Sunday afternoon.
 Miss Wills won easily from Mile Emmillene Vlasto of France, 6-2, 6-2, but Richards was forced to the limit by Henri Cochet, the other French hope, and won only by score of GA, GA, 5-7, 4-6, 6-2.
 It was the second Olympic cham pionship for the attractive blonde player from California, for with Mrs. Wightman she had already won the women's doubles. Two championship matches remain to be played, the mems doubles and the mixed doubles. Vic tory in the later was assured the United States when both Amercian mixed doubles teams went into the finals, so that Mrs. Marion Jessup and Richards, will oppose Norris Williams and Mrs. Wightman for the title. Thus, the United States is assured of win ming at least four of the five events.
 The classification point score in the tennis now stands:
 United States, 30.
 France, 19.
 England, 13.
 Italy, 4.
 Richards started his match by drop ping the first two games and appeared to be in imminent danger of losing the first set at the end of the fifth game, having won only the third. In re- markable comeback, however, he swept through the Frenchman and won the next five games in rapid succession, to the intense dismay of the crowd.
 The second set was less sensational. They split the first four games, Rich ards taking the second and third and then the fifth, sixth and seventh. Co., chet took the next two, however, and the set threatened to go to deuce, but Richards stemmed the tide and won the sixth and last game of the set.
 The third was hardest fought, Cochet taking three of the first four, then the sixth and seventh. With the games five and two against him, Richards fought the set into deuce by taking the next three, but his seemingly tired condition worked against him and the French man was able to cop the next two in quick succession.
 The fourth set was a nip and tuck affair almost to the finish. Richards won the first, fourth, fifth and seventh and Cochet the second, third, sixth, eighth, ninth and tenth.
 In the deciding test Cochet began to show marked signs of weakening, being affected both by the heat and gruelling pace. Winning all but the second and sixth games, Richards, the Boy Won

Pinkston was third with 1615. Adlez of Sweden followed with 1g and Lenor- mand of France with 24.
 The only booes and groans arose when the "Star-Spangled Banner was played three times for the three Americans, who placed one two and three in the mems diving, but this was because the French felt Lenormand should have been placed and there was some justi- fication for this feeling.
 The American team landed third in the water polo finals, after beating Sweden, 3 to 2, and then losing to Belgium, 2 to 1.

the American champion, whoN is a fel- low townsman of Jacks and a member of the same club back home. The kid pumeled Salas badly and the latter's features showed many signs of wear.
 Fidel Labarbara, still another Los Angeles product, beat Mckenzie of Eng land for the flyweight championship in the first match of the evening. This match was in the nature of a decisive one, as America and England had thus far divided the honors, and Labarbara entered the ring realizing it was up to him to hoisA the stars and stripes to the top. His victory was clean-cut and a fine exhibition of boxing. The Ameti- cans in the audience yelled so loudly for Labarbara that the French spectators were astounded.
 Trip0lie Beaten
 Smith of South Africa trimmed s. Tripolie, U. s. A., for the bantam title on points in the hardest and speediest bout of the night. The two men were almost evenly matched and the decision was close, but generally agreed to be fair.
 In the middleweight division, Mallin of England, beat Elliott, countryman, and the French crowd rioted mildly and booed the British flag, for Mallin had previously had Brouse, the Frenchman, disqualified for biting.
 Mitchell of England beat T. Petersen of Denmark for the light heavyweight title, and in the heavyweight struggle Vonporat of Norway took the laurels from S. Petersen of Denmark.

Cannot Make The Issue

INeW 1OTK WOFIu, Dem.1
When we say that Mr.. McAdoo
cannot make the issue against the
Republicans we do not charge him
with any wrong doing. We refer only
to the obvious fact that he was Mr..
Doheney's lawyer on a personal re-
tainer Of $4,000 annually and on a
contingent fee of $1,000, 900 IL
Mexican negotiations succeeded:
that he received a fee Of $3.50, 900
from the Republic Iron and Steel
Company for appearing before his
own former Treasury subordinates
In tax-refund case which saved
the company $2,000,000. A man in
this position cannot in our judy
ment successfully convince the
voters that he represents a return
to high standards of government.

Milk is nourishing under proper
conditions. The American people are
using more OF it, 212 quarts per per-
son last year as compared with 200
quarts the year before. In 1923 per
capita consumption OF butter was II
pounds. or half pound more than in
1922: 3.91 pounds Of cheese, compar-
ed with 3.74; 1925 pounds Of con-
densed or evaporated milk compared
with 1859: 2.6e gallons Of ice cream
as compared with 2.43 gallons the
previous year. Evidently Americans
are not less properly nourished.
