between Helen Wills and
Suzanne Lenglen without offending the
proprieties of amateur tennis.
Suzanne's dominance of woman's
tennis before she turned professional
was scarcely no more complete than is
Helen's now. So outstanding in the
field is the American girl that the only
question is how many games--not sets
she will lose In the semi-finals and
finals of the woman's singles of the
British championships today and Sat
urday.
The rain that halted play yesterday
had some bearing on this speculation.
If the big tarpaulin didn't snugly cover
every blade of grass on the center
court. then experts figured Miss Wills
might drop quite few games TO her
opponent In the semi-finals, who is
none other than that famous wet
weather tennis player, Elizabeth Ryan,
Californian, now living in England.
Plays without Shoes.
Miss Ryan can chop her way TO VIC
tory most any time against anybody
but Miss Wills. On one memorable oc-
casion she dotted her shoes on a sod
den court and beat Helen. The VIM
bledon arena, however, is as carefully
covered as is the powder for their Brit
tanic majesty's army and navy
Wimbledon experts say that Miss
Ryan alone of the field can threaten
Miss Wills. and the veteran Californian
will be a very long shot at the hest
That leaves the intriguing question
as to what would happen should Miss
Wills and Mile. Lenglen take opposite
sides of the court The consensus
among experts here appears to be that
the California girl now Is better than
the French star ever was II the match
could be staged there would be plenty
of British anxious to wager odds on
the American.
