AMERICAN STARS

National Rivalry Reaches It's
 High Mark Today

Forest Hills, N. r., Aug. 25 R- International rivalry reached its high mark today in the national women's tennis championship tournament with seven of the eight matches in the third round slated to bring American stars into action against invading contenders. Nine Ameri- cans, six British and one Dutch play CT composed the surviving field.
 The native forces. headed by the tournament favorite. Miss Helen Wills, and the defending champion, Mrs. Molla Mallory. faced formidable opposition in most of today's tests. Miss Helen Wills, who gave further evidence yesterday of being at the top of her game by crushing Mrs. Lillian Hester of Brooklyn, 60, 6-2. was drawn against Mrs. John Hill. English covered court champion who has dropped only one game to two opponents so far. Mrs. Mallory apparently hard pressed in the sec ond round to win from Mrs. Will liam Endicott of Boston, 6-4, 6-4. was expected to meet keen opposition from another star, Miss Gwendolyn Sterry, the P year old girl who took a set from Miss Wills at Wimbledon. Miss Sterry won easily yesterday from Mrs. Anna Fuller Hubbard of Englewood. Md, 6-2. 6-1.
 In the other British American matches, Miss Betty Nuthall. 16 year old English star, was expected to meet her first major test against Miss Penelope Anderson of Rich mond, Va: Miss Eileen Bennett was bracketed with the IS year old Cali fornian, Miss Helen Jacobs; Miss E. H. Harvey was up against the third ranking Aemrican star. Miss Flea nor Goss; while Miss Joan Fry. sec ond ranking British player, was . fayorite over Mrs. Charlotte Hosmer Chapin.
 All of these players came through their second round matches easily with the exception of Miss Harvey. who was extended to an extra set to win from Mrs. J. Saunders Taylor of New York, and Miss Fry. who met unexpected but somewhat short-lived opposition from a California young ster, Miss Marjorie Gladrran.
 Miss Kea Bouman, the Dutch champion, who won her second round match easily from Miss May me Macdonald of New York. was bracketed with Mrs. J. Dallas Cor biere of Boston in today's opening match, scheduled at 2 p. m., eastern daylight time.
