Thrilling Court Duel In Final Of Wimbledon Joust Eliminates
 Helen Wills

Wimbledon. England, July s.-tBy the Associated Press)-The tennis title that Mile. Lenglen. the French star, has held against all the world since the close of the war, passed yes terday to British champion, Miss Kathleen Mckane, when in a magni- ficent thrilling match she triumphed by narrow margin over the cham pion woman player of the United States, Helen Wills. The score, 4-6, 6-4, GA, does not give Il true indica- ton of how slim was the margin of strength in favor of the victor.
 Mile. Lenglen had reached the mi-finals in the Wimbledon tour nament but was forbidden by her doctors to continue further play, and thus was unable to defend her title.
 Miss Mckane to win the champion ship yesterday had 10 make an up- hill struggle, as Miss Wills, after taking the first set, led in the sec- ond at games to 1. When her cause became desperate, Miss Mckane was wise enough to throw aside the con- servative methods and caution that usually characterize her play. Nen- turing everything she abandoned the back court and rushed to the net at every opportunity, gaining her end for five games in succession, and with them won the second set.
