SWEEP IS LIKELY
FOR MRS. MOODY
Seems Certain to Annex All
French Events in Which
She Is Competing.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
A UTEUIL, France, May 3l.-A
~ clean sweep Of every title in
~ the French hard-court tennis
championships for which she
is eligible was in prospect for Mrs
Helen Wills Moody today.
With Elizabeth Ryan, Mrs. Moody
already has won the women's doubles
and there does not seem to be any one
in the womens singles field capable OF
extending her Now, unexpectedly,
she and Sidney B. Wood have reached
the final of the mixed doubles and
that. too, may fall into Queen Helens
grasp.
Tennis experts used to say that the
then Helen Wills, great singles player
though she was, could not play doubles,
but the American champion is making
them all sit up and take notice this
year She was the dominating factor
in the Moody-Ryan combination and
she has more than upheld her end in
mixed doubles.
She and Wood eliminated the strong
French combination of Jean Borotra
and Josane Sigart in the semi-flnals
yesterday and will meet Fred Perry
and Betty Nuthall in the champion
ship round. Perry and Miss Nuthall
surprised the gallery by beating Henri
Cochet and Eileen Bennett Whiting
stall, favored to win the title, in three
sets.
The feature match on today's pro-
gram was the third-round meeting of
Wood and Rene Lacoste in mems sin
giles. Lacoste, seeking to come back
after Ill health kept him on the side
lines for several years. has not been
impressive in his first two matches
but it was obvious that the great
French player was spending most OF
his time experimenting with his shot
repertoire.
Helen Jacobs also faced a strong sin
giles opponent in the person of Doris
Metaxa Of France.

14:40 for the 5000 meters. Loukola
has a mark Of 3O:35.6 and Iso-Hollo
30:5l.4 for the 10000 meters. Aside
from these Firms, no runner anywhere
Is credited With beating 81 minutes for
the longer route

done over these Olympic routes is

Lewis Tewantma. the Indian in 1912
