PLAY FINAL GAMES IN
 CHURCH LOOP TONIGHT
Three Contests Are Scheduled for Willow Brook Park-N1ay
 Result In Tie

Weather permitting the Inter- Church baseball league will conclude it's fifth season this evening, when three games are scheduled to be played at Willow Brook park. AL though this will be the final night of play, the championship has not yet been definitely settled, for the St. Matthew's German Lutherans nave margin of only single game on the First Lutherans and it is still barely possible for the latter to overhaul and tie the league leaders.
 The Swedish Bethany nine, twice conquered already, is the last ob- stacle in the way of the second suc- cesslve pennant for the St. Matts. This team, although getting bad breaks all season. remains danger ous. It once forced the St. Matts in to extra innings and, if it has it's full strength on hand tonight it should again prove hard nut for the champions to crack.
 The First Lutherans must defeat the South Congregationalists to fig ure in the picture. This feat the, have accomplished twice this season. but the South church has just won four straight games and is anxious to climax it's big push from the eel lar by scoring win over the only team it has not yet downed. A fast game is promised.
 The Trinity Methodist and Stanley Memorial aggregations will meet on Diamond Mo- in the third encoun- ter of the evening. The Methodists, Tn the cellar, cannot escape, but they are looking for another victory to take the curse off a poor season. while the slipping stanmors are also anxious to end the year with tri- umph.
 A postponed game between the Swedish Bethany and Stanley Me- morlal teams has not yet been played off. This is the only postponed en- counter of the entire season to date.

Helen Wills Defends National Championship p at Forest Hills

Forest Hills, N. Y, Aug. 19 P,- Three players who have known what It is to be queen of American courts and 61 others who woul like to be queen were ready for the opening of the women's national tennis championships at the West Side Tennis club today.
 Helen Wills of Berkeley, Cali. the defending champion. has won the title five times. Among the 63 players seeking to dethrone her are Mrs. Molla Mallory eight-times na- tional champion, and Mrs. May Sutton Bundy of Santa Monica, title holder in 1904.
 Miss Wills and Mrs. Mallory have had almost a strangle hold on the slngles championship ever since 1915. Only once in the last 14 years has any other player won the title, Mrs. Hazel Hotchkiss Wightman turning the trick back in 1919. Mrs. Mallory, then simply Molla Bjurd- stedt, began her reign in 1915. won again in 1916-17-1S-20-21 Miss Wills first won the title in 1923, repeated in 1924-25, did not defend 1t in 1926 and won it again in 1922 and 1928.
 But Miss Wills most serious op- position this year was expected to come not from either Mrs. Mallory or Mrs. Bundy but from several younger players. Not only was the Berkeley girl threatened by Ameri- can rivals but by a dozen players from other lands as well.
 England has sent a delegation of six, headed by 1S-year-old Betty Nuthall who gave the American champion such Q terrific battle in the Wlghtman cup matches that some critics concede her a better than outside chance of winning the championship. The other members

 After seeing lot of tennis Forest Hills these next two weeks, she'll gc back to Santa Monica to play tennis after school almost every afternoon with May Doeg. also 12 years old and sister of Johnny.
 And mother says she's going to try to play with me lots more this next year. too," she added.
 Dorothy is a fine looking young ster, gloriously healthy, sturdy as d lion cub. She has hair the color Of strained honey. and her face, legs and arms are tanned beautiful golden brown. And she is one of those funny, rather stern little girls direct matter of fact. independent.
 When her mother was eliminated at Wimbledon, so the story goes, somebody said consolingly:
 Too bad, Dorothy. too bad,"
 To which little Bundy is said 10 have replied stoically:
 "Too bad for mother.'
 Dorothy submitted to her first newspaper interview yesterday at Rye. It was tough on Dorothy, and it almost ruined the interviewer Compared with Little Bundy," Hel en Wills herself is a loquacious as Lorelei Lee.
 Little Bunny" knew the inter- viewer was coming. So after get ting dressed up in an immaculate white flannel skirt and sweater she betook herself to the farthest corner of acres of courts. She was finally located, whamming balls up against the side of a shed. with such vigor that they almost left dents in the boards.
 It seems that Little Bundy" has one sensitive spot, and unfortunata- ly the interviewer hit upon it as the first crack out of the box.
 How much do you weigh. Dor othy?" she asked, glancing respect fully at norothy's athletic shoulders.
 Little Bundy" gulped, looked and then determined.

 Johnny Rose was on the mound
 for the Burritts and he hurled a

 Ed Morris allowed the Detroit Tigers just 16 assorted base hits in
