"A. "A Sports Writcr)

NEW YORK, April 25.-Europe shortly will beNintroduced to new girl tennis sAr from California whose record oAN matches won and lost last season vas second only to that of Helen WlNs.
 If Miss Edith Cl loss of San Fran cisco, the young lady in question, shows half as ma sh improvement this year as she dft. last, the Euro- pean venture on which she will soon set forth as the partner of Queen Helen will be assured suc- cess and the United States can en- certain some hope of recovering team supremacy from the English girls.
 Still total stranger to the courts of Europe and to many followers of the game in this country, Miss Cross proved her ability in spec tacular 1928 campaign which lifted her to third place in the present national ranking. Only the two Helens- Wills and Jacobs-r n k ahead of this stalwart stenograph- elS from the Golden Cate who yealSs ago appeared nowhere on the natiol.sl ranking list of 20 names.
 The hord hitting Edith even then was not without honor in her own part of the. country, as she was third in the Eacific coast list, but not until 1928 old she extend her conquests to the cast. Now at the express invitation oSsS Miss Wills, who should know pro using ten his player when she sees enc, Miss Cross is to tackle Europe.
 Strongly built and blessed with biceps which deal our forehands and backhands of almost mascu- line force, Miss Cross makes the adventuring American combination more formidable than that of last year when the clever but slightly built Penelope Anderson of Rich. mond, Va, was the companion-in- arms of Miss Wills.
 The California newcomer enters this months siege of interna- tional play in good condition and with a 1928 record of IS matches won and only four lost.
