BY LAWRENCE PERRY.

NEW YORK, May 2O.-A close
friend of Helen Wills Moody advises
this department that. if the former
world champion does as we'll at VIM
bledon next month as she did in 1885,
when she Won her seventh title there,
she surely will enter the national
women's singles tournament at Forest
Hills.

ant, has an ambition of which she
has not yet spoken generally. 1t is to
equal Mrs. Molla Bjursted Mallory's
eight national singles titles (won in

Seeks Wimbledon Mark, Too.
Having already won seven. she
had a chance to make it eight that
day in 1888 at Forest Hills when
physical breakdown caused her to de-
fault to Helen Jacobs when the latter
was leading.
If her stamina now is as good as
she believes it to be, she is likely. Ill
view of her improved game. to make a
strong bid for her eighth title at VIM
bledon. Succeeding in this, she will
hold the all-time record there. LAM
bert Chambers of England equals Mrs.
Moody's present record Of seven VIC
tories and Suzanne Lenglen falls be-
low with six
Chances seem to be that, falling
at Wimbledon in such manner as to
convince her she no longer can
weather hard tourney play, she will
not attempt Forest Hills"
