Boy Injured By
Roman Candle

Cnly one serious injury was re-
ported among the small boys of the
city during Fourth of July celebra-
'tion as the result of getting too
close to fireworks. There were of
course the usual small powder
burns and the close escapes.
Curtis Henry, s, was shot in the
right eye while playing with a ro-
man candle Wednesday evening, but
the younsster will not lose his sight.
Prompt home treatment and the fact
the boy had instinctively closed his
eye, resulted in nothing more ser
ious than painful burn of the eye
lid and surrounding tissue.
Plenty of fireworks were set off
last evening by those who stayed at
home instead of going out of the
city for the holiday. The evening
was somewhat noisy but otherwise
safe and sane.
The protective measures taken by
the police and fire department heads
and the observance of the rules laid
down for the use of fireworks with
in the city limits resulted in there
being no fires during the "a hours.

HELEN WILLS
AGAIN CROWNED
TENNIS QUEEN
Defeats Her California
Friend Helen Jacobs In
Straight Sets.

WIMBLEDON, England, July 5.
(UH-Before a fashionable crowd
of $4,000 in the stands surrounding
the famous center court at Wimblc-
don. two California girls, the hard
est hitting pair that ever met in a
woman's singles match, battled to-
day for the all England champion
ship, and Helen Wills beat Helen
Jacobs in straight sets, 6-l, 6'2.
1t was Miss Wills third straight
victory in the Vim bledon singles,
but the first time that American
women have monopolized the center
court for the finals.
Miss Jacobs, outclassed, fought
hard and gamely. She impressed the
enthralled spectators as about the
most dangerous opponent that could
be found for the champion, but the
best she could do was to win three
games and carry three to deuce
Three games are about all Miss
Jacobs has ever been able to win
from Miss Wills when the latter
was trying. In the national cham
pionships of the United States last
year, Miss Wills beat her 60, 6-i.
Gusts of wind swept the. center
court during the match, making ac-
eurate play more difficult. The new
champion s powerful driving stood
heu in good stead during the blew.
