reasons known to golfers and business
men. These reasons, In the order Of
their importance, are: The high cost
and the time needed from business.
AS tip-on on what some Of the
Eastern players think Of this matter of
an amateur championship on the West
coast. let it be said Immediately that
Roland r. Mackenzie Of Columbia will
not be among those to answer the
starts at the Del Monte Golf ano
Country Club in September. Nor will
Watts Gum, nor Dick Jones. ano
probably not Francis Ouimet or Jesse
Guilford.
In other words, three members Of
the last Walker Cup team will not be
among those present, and while Bob
Jones will be there to defend his cham
pionship, and George Won Elm, the
perennial rival Of the Georgian, will
also be there along with the aging Chick
flavor which would be impaired were
the best Of the East also to be present.
Rumor has it that George J. Voigt, who
was medaliSt and q semi-flnaliSt in the
championship last year, will not 60 to
California, nor will Jess SweetSer.
Roland Mackenzie, always difhdent
about saying something that might
hurt some one, was discussing the
forthcoming championship.
at takes long time, and good deal
Of money" he said. I'm afraid won't
be able to make it." Watts Gum said
the same thing, and George Voigt said
he was not yet decided, while 1t Is
practically settled that Ouimet and
Guilford, the champions of 1914 and
1921, will not be among those present.
Serious competition in that cham
pionship will take at least three weeks
Of time, and at least $500 worth OF
currency, If all the conventionalitiss are
lived up to. Many of the boys are more
hard UP for the money than for the
time, although to some Of them time
is money. So the u. S. G. A., Is very
likely to have a nice little personally
conducted run-around for Bob Jones
in California in September. Not that
any of the Eastern lads would be seri-
Gus opposition for Jones. They have
had their wnack at him and failed for
five years Won Elm is the only one
who has been able to take him. And
Jones will never be caught mapping
against Won Elm as he was at Baltusrol
in 1925.
Miller B. STEVENSON is not going to
California. Harry G. Pitt dallieo with
the idea for a while and then gave It
up Page Hufty thought long and low
ingly on the Far West and decided TO
pass it up. So 1t looks as If the current
year will find the National Capital en-
tirely without representation in the
tournament which Tommy Armour calls
the "Set-up for Jones"

HELEN WILLS RULE
IN TENNIS SUPREME
Takes Third British Title,
Beating Helen Jacobs
in Handy Fashion.

BY the Associated Press.
w WIMBLEDON. England, July g..
France has a firm grip on
wv the masculine honors Of
world tennis, but no nation
has nominated a rival able
10 threaten Helen Wills monopoly on
feminine laurelS.
Her feat in trouncing Helen Jacobs,
another Californian, 81, So, on
Wimbledon's famous center court yes
terday gave Miss Wills her third British
championship in rs many years and
her second in row without the loss
Of set.
AS matter of fact, the earnest
searcher after facts must go back to
1927 before discovering any opponent
able to wrest a set from the Berkeley
girl. In that year, Miss G. r. Sterry
of England bowed to Miss Wills in the
first round of the British champion
ships, 6-3, 3-6, 6-3, but Miss Wills
swept through the rest Of the field to
win the title for the first time. Since
that day, June II, 1927, when Miss
Sterry gave her such a tuSsle, Miss
Wills has not lost a set.
Her victory in the current champion
ships was more impressive than either
of her other two. In 1927 she lost one
set and 43 games in taking the title.
In 1928 she dropped Is games but no
sets. This year she lost no sets and
only Is games.
Miss Wills easy triumph over Miss
Jacobs indicated among other things
that the Berkeley girl will have little
trouble defending her American title
this Fall. She won the American
British and French titles in 1928 and
already has repeated in the French and
British events of 1929.
There seems to be no reasonable
ground for suspecting that she will not
sweep through an opposition in the ma
tional championships OF her own land
The final day of the 1929 champion
ships today found Miss Wills with a
chance for another title to add to her
string. The women's champion and
Frank Hunter were matched in the
finals of the mixed doubles against
Joan Fry and I. c. Collins Of England
The final Of the mems singles brought
together the French aces, Henri Cochet
and Jean Borotra, and the womens
doubles found two British teams, Mrs.
Phoebe Watson and Mrs. Peggy Saun-
ders Mitchell, title holders, paired
against M. s. Phyllis Covell and Mrs.
Dorothy Shepherd Barron.

All Of this may or may not indicate

At prize fights the emotions Of the
