There Il no need to say more than
Helen Wills Moody Is champion of
France, of England or Of the world
to justify her position at once, 90
Between Miss Aussem, Miss Ryan,
Mrs. Watson and even Miss Jacobs there
is not much to choose or record, but
what little there Is seems to favor Miss
Aussem. An unfortunate accident
forced Miss Aussen1s default at all
in the final set against Miss Ryan, at
a time when it was any ones match
in the semi-finals at Wimbledon.
Miss Ryan Follows.
The previous day Miss Aussem had
crushed Miss Jacobs 81, 80. Miss
Aussem beat Miss Ryan decisively at
Paris in the French championship, TAX
ing precedence over Miss Ryan's two
victories on the Riviera; Miss Aussem
had two victories over Nine. Matthew
in the south Of France. So am CIV
ing Miss Aussem second place, closely
followed by Miss Ryan, who IS finalist
ut Wimbledon almost deserves bracket
Ing with her.
Mrs. Holcroft- Watson, whose unfor-
tunate illness kept her out of Wimble-
don, might have been higher had she
been able to play. Mrs. Watson lost to
Miss Jacobs IN Paris, but beat her in
the Wigi1tman Cup and led Helen Wills
Wiehtman Cup match. On this great
performance, the best made against Mrs.
Moody in three years, give Mrs. Wat
son fourth place. Closely following her
and clearly deserving 1t, comes Miss
Jacobs. who was fina1ist in the French
championship. Miss Jacobs beat Mile.

Deciding What to Do
Makes Drive Difficult

Putting always has appeared to be
a simple matter. All golfer has to
do is to worry the ball about the
green until it becomes exhausted
and faints in the cup.
Driving is much more difficult
Here is where that much discussed
mental strain comes in. When driv-
ing a man must decide whether to
top the ball into the trap, pull 1t
into the rough or slice it out of
bounds.

and out of the game for some time.
Joan Fry played little except the
Wightman Cup. It has not been great
year in women's tennis. Helen Wills
Moody has overshadowed the field even
more than in the past Only Mrs. Wat
sons great play in the Wightmsn Cup
has extended her at all. Miss Jacobs,
Miss Nuthall and Miss Bennett have
been disappointing all the year.
The remarkable improvement of Miss
Aussem and the great comeback OF Miss
Ryan are the two most heartening Tea
lures. The sudden illness of Miss Al
varez has robbed the year of one OF Its
most delightful personalities. How.
ever the American season will find

 This is Joan's third talking pie ture, her first being "Untamed," and her second Montana Moon" It is the first audible role she has essay ed in the type or part for which she is so well-known and loved by her audiences. In this picture she is fashion model and wears the most gorgeous gowns ever created by Gilbert Adrian, noted stylist.

 After disappointing ten nations in Europe we couldn't very well give Crabbe and Gorilla permission to swim in Japan" Ferris said.
 About two weeks before they were to have sailed for Europe, July Is, Gorilla withdrew on the plea that he had to go back to Argentina and Crabbe on the ground of a business connection, Ferris added.
