NEW YORK, July 90. U.P) - If
the Brooklyn Robins fail to win
the 1881 National league pennant--
and 1t looks very much as if their
championship efforts will be futile
they can attribute their down.
fall to their inability to defeat Sec
ond division teams.
Against first division clubs the
Robins have played like champions,
winning rs Of their 4l games
against S. Louis, Chicago and New
York. But this margin piled up at
the expense of the leaders has suf-
fered through Brooklyn's poor play
against weaker clubs.
In 81 contests against Boston,
Philadelphia and Cincinnati, the
Robins have lost 30 games while
winning 81. Had they been able to
tsvin a majority of these encounters,
Noney probably would be challenging
st. Louis for the leadership instead
of resting in fourth place, 10l8
games from the top.
The Robins continued their losing
ways yesterday, dropping to a

After Walker. who was then a

SPORTS PARADE

United Press Staff COrreSpOndenl


SEABRIGHT, N. j., July %. (U.P)
Those players of the game who
are patiently awaiting the day when
Mrs. Helen Wills Moody decides to
call it quits so they may grab a
share of the tennis spotlight had
better get themselves great,
over-stuffed chair, sit down in said
chair, and make preparations for a
big wait.
For Mrs. Moody, who by the way,
is prettier than ever, hopes to be
playing tennis for at least 10 years
more. That's what she told us to-
day just before taking the court
against Baroness Levi in a quarter
final match of the Seabright tour
nament.
Unless something happens to
make me change my mind, ] hope
to be playing tennis when I'm 100
years old" Mrs. Moody said when
asked about the rumors of her quit
ting the game in year or so.
And judging by her play of yes
terday, Mrs. Moody at 100, dressed
in a shawl and using a crutch for
a racket. still will be too much of
an assignment for any other wom-
EN- player in the land.
Mrs. Moody, unlike the silent,
grave, Helen Wills of several years
back, seemed ready, even glad, to
talk.
Among the things we learned
were that Queen Helen-this title
must be used at least once in a
Moody interview or 1t isn't consid-
cred authentic-haS no idea of en-
tering the movies and the reports
of her corresponding with Henri
Cochet of France, in regard to turn
ing professional, was silly talk, )"
nothing more.
The one thing Mrs. Moody re-
fused to talk about was her failure
to play at Wimbledon this year un-
der the auspices of the United
States Lawn Tennis association.
When asked why she didn't go to
England, Mrs. Moody said she was
not invited" and that she had
rather not talk about it.
1t is known, however. that the
U. S. l.. T. A. refused to pay her
expenses on the grounds that ex-
penses were paid only when a team
was sent abroad. Personally, we
would hate to have to name two or
three players who would form a
better team than Mrs. Moody, all
by her lonesome.
The veterans also will tell you
that Johnny Doeg may not be our
greatest champion, but that tennis
has never had a more regular
boy; that the blond transplanted
Californian wouldn't know a sWelled
head If he met one in the middle
of big road In this connection
it might be pointed out that on
Monday Doeg played his first round
match on obscure court No. IL in
stead of demanding No. g. the CEN
ter court.
Can you imagine-(supply your
own name)-doing that? No,
neither can we.
