N VIEW YORK, August 22.--At last
lawn tennis has q woman
" possessed of all the color, the
speed and fighting elements
which distinguish men. In Mrs. Eileen
Bennett whittingstall the game is rich.
Forest Hills has nevel before known a
woman so rapid and sure Of action. It
Is scarcely saying too much to imply
that at court covering, flashing an at
tack at the net and in the production
of sudden lightninglike shots she has
never been supposedly man or
woman--with the racket.
There is little doubt that this marvel
Gus British player rose to her greatest
flight against our own Miss Helen
Jacobs. The latter was stroking above
her best. She was simply fighting
against an opponent not to be denied.
The score of 3--6, 6--3, 8--6 Is evidence
of that. So today Mrs. WhittingStall
faces Miss Betty Nuthall, holder of the
American title, in the semi finals, in which
Mrs. Helen Wills Moody. the lone repre-
sentative of this Nation left in the
tournament, encounters Miss Phyllis Z.
Mudford, . player Of much her own
type.
Daring, fiery. dynamiting her shots,
Mrs Whittingstall fought through such
a battle as Forest Hills has not known
in many long day. 1t was a strange
trick of fate that caused her tingling
encounter to be followed by Mrs. Moody
against Miss Dorothy Weisel. The con-
trast was deadly, Mrs. Moodys dull
stroking, her machine-like performance,
was about as interesting as picking
flies out OF the sugar bowl

were the shots that wrecked the little

was able to lob herself out Of q corner
but not often.
Make no mistake about It, this won

She is always on the bali. Some of her

world championship than they carried
into action last Fall.
For one thing, they figure the law
Of averages Is about ready to swing
their way. The American League has
won four years In a row, so Gabby
Street believes the tide is about due to
turn.
The Cards also figure the addition OF
young Derringer will be big help, as
he Is one Of the pitching finds Of
many years. They believe they can
count on high-class pitching in every
game, and each pitcher can bear down
with all he has.
Street looks for the hardest and
closest fight the world series has known
since 1926, when the Cardinals finally
nipped the Yankees in the seventh game
as old man Alexander closed the door
on Yankee hopes.
However the dope may figure out,
the Cardinals are all keyed up over
the outlook and their chance to check
a ball club that Is out to win three
championships in row.
The Cardinals have class. apeed,
pitching and the punch. But the Ath-
