ENGLISH STARS
 WIN AT TENNIS
Visiting Players Come Through Matches With Flying ColorS

| Forest Mills, N. Y, Aug. 20 P1 Eighteen customers. seven Califor- nians. two Middle Westerners and five formidable English. women to- day remained to enter the second round of play for the national wom- ems tennis championship on the West Side Stadium turf.
 The English forces came through the opening round yesterday with colors flying. but Canada, Brazil, Sweden and Bermuda were counted out and the battle narrowed 10 an Anglo American affair.
 Great Britain's sole casualty was Mrs. D. A. Aston, who was speedily eliminated by her country-%oman, Mrs. B. c. Covell.
 AS a result of the success of the British stars a series of interesting international battles was in prospect for the second round today.
 Most promising of these seems to be the match between Sarah Palfrey, the 16-year- old Brookline, ! Mass" girl who outplayed older and more experienced opponents to win the eastern turf title just two days ago, and Mrs. Dorothy Shepherd Barron of the English team.
 Miss Palfrey. who won a smashing s-3, 6-1 victory over Ruth Bailey of St. Louis here yesterday, is conceded close to an even chance to defeat the English player.
 Largely because of her youth, Miss Palfrey was not included among the eight Americans seeded in the draw but her play the last few days indi- cated that she undoubtedly has lar rived"
 Among other important matches billed for today is one between Helen Wills, the defending champion, and Mrs. Charlotte Hosmer Chapin of Springfield. Mass. Mrs. Chapin, ninth in the national ranking, is strong opponent for Miss Wills to meet in the second round and it is safe to say that the queen of the worlds courts will not race through the match in IS minutes as she against Katherine Lamarche of Seabright, N J.. yesterday.
 Last year Mrs. Chapin met Miss Wills in the quarter finals and gave her the hardest fight she experienc- ed in the tournament, winning six flames.
 Helen Jacobs also faces strong second round opposition, from Flea nor Goss og New York, veteran Of years of international play. Betty Nuthall, English ace, who is looked upon as the leading threat to Miss Wills continued reign, was expected to have an easier time with Gertrude Dwyer of New York.
 Playing under wraps yesterday in defeating Cecilia Riegel of Philadel- pima, 6-2. 6-2, Bounding Betty" set something of a record by making three double faults in one game and winning the game.
 The doubles championship, open ing today with 32 pairs entered, dc not include Miss Wills. Although she won this title last year paired witt Mrs Hazel Wightman. Helen decided to confine her activities this year tc singles.

It isn't so much 8 question of who will win the national amateur golf championship, beginning at Pebble Beach, Del Monte, Calf, Sept. ?, as it is who will keep Bobby Jones, the celebrated Atlanta barrister, from winning it.
 In one of the greatest fields ever to compete in this annual contest, Bobby Jones, four-time winner of the event and national open cham pion of 1929, stands out like Al Ca pone at a Christian Endeavor pie nic.
 Jones, today, dominates golf as Jack Dempsey used to dominate the fight game. Or like Babe Ruth did. and still does, in baseball. His spot is at the very pinnacle-a higher place than has ever been attained by any human in the history of fthe ancient Scotch sport.
 Harry Nardon was a master golfer "a stylist supreme. Jones, on the strength of his marvellous record, crowds Nardon out of the picture. He is the greatest golfer of all time without an argument.
 But there is no man so great ;n his line that he is an absolute sure thing in any one competition. Hence there is hope in the breasts of the horde of amateurs who are heading for the California tournament. The British amateur champion $ Cyril Tolley. He and four compa- triots, Eustace Storey, T. A. Bournes, Lord Charles Hope and Major Guy Colin Campbell, are making an un- official raid for the American crown. C. Ross Somerville is Canadian amateur champion and an excep- tional golfer. He has always been among the leaders when he failed to annex titular honors in tourna- ments in Canada and the United | States.
 i Jess Sweetser, amateur champion of 1922, and George Won Elm, win her of the 1928 amateur tournament will be in there trying for an ups, of the great Bobby.
 Chick Evans was national opAr and amateur champion in 1916. IT 1920 he repeated in the amateur. H. was eliminated by Jesse Guilford ir the finals of 1921. Evans has no won q major championship in recen' years. But he has always, been { threat, as he promises to be thi, year.
 Don Carrick won the Canadian amateur championship in 1925 an{ again in 1927. He did not defend his title last year berause he was Z member of the Canadian Olympic boxing team.
 George Voight is one of th' younger set. In the short time h' has. been competing in the import ant competitions he has established an enviable record. He was 192' Metropolitan champion and thre' times winner Of the north and souti amateur title. He was eliminated II the semi-fnals of last years anna teur tournament by William Perkin of Great Britain, whom BobD, ones defeated in the finals.
 These are just few of the scorr of truly great golfers included il the list of 162 starters. Jones i paired in the qualifying rounds witt Jack Neville of the Monterey Pen insula Country club. who recentl won the California amateur cham pionship for the fifth time.
