MOODY STILL BEST
JACOBS COMEDIES.
Believes Marble Has Game
to Beat Her, but Lacks
Competitive Spirit.
BY SCOTTY RESTON,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

WIMBLEDON, England, June 29.-
Helen Jacobs struggling for another
shot at Helen Wills Moody In the
Wimbledon women's singles final,
thinks her rival is still the finest
competitive player in the world"
A victory for Miss Jacobs over Alice
Marble tomorrow in the semi-flnal
and one for Mrs. Moody over Frau
Hilda Krahwinkel Sperling would bring
the two Helens together for replay Of
their historic struggle here in 1885.
Two matches from her second VIM
bledon title, Miss Jacobs has nothing
but praise for the woman who stands
in her way. Watch her closely and
you'll see she still has the most perfect
concentration in the game" said Miss
Jacobs, land 1t makes no difference
whether she's practicing or playing for
the title. she hits and concentrates
just as hard as ever"
Here are a few more observations
by Helen about Mrs. Moody's game and
its relation to the current champion
ship:
"She's undoubtedly . little slower
going up and down the court, but she's
Just as fast moving across the base
line.
"The problem Of her opponents this
week is to force her to come to the
net and then attack her quickly with
fast passing shot while she's out of
position.
alice Marble has the game to beat
her. She has the most natural and
versatile service in women's tennis
AL she lacks Is Mrs. Moody's tempera-
ment. She can play well in the fore
court and that's the only game that
will beat Mrs. Moody.
"Hilda Sperling always will be
threat because at any time she may
come to the very top Of her game and
beat anywoman in the world. But
don't forget, nobody can detect and
utilize an inferiority complex in her
opponent so fast or effectively as Mrs.
Moody.
you've got to give Mrs. Moody
credit. She's making her comeback
against the strongest field we've had
here for years, and you can be sure
she would not be playing If she didn't
think she could win"

quest, was considering making q Sc
rious comeback

had any plans, but it was plain to see

still is the master SHOEMAKER Of them

The outspoken Scot severely criti-
cized the winter golf Circuit, describ-
ing the money tournaments as "un-

going to make some money" he said.
"Only few ever come out, shall we
say, alive
They are fundamentally unsound.
Say q prize Is 5000. There will be
about 200 competitors. They can't
get by for less than SIS apiece a week.
That's cheap. That's $4,000 they

little golf doctor knows something
about hosses, too," Ford used to say.
Last year. playing to an average of
better than q round and q half q
day, Fred Mcleod piled up the amaz-
ing total Of 553 rounds Of golf over
several courses, chief Of which, nat
urally. was the Columbia course.
But he won't reach that figure
this year.
Freddie, who Is So years old, isn't
slowing down in 50 far as his physical
activities are concerned. but he thinks
he'll take it easy during the hot
months and won't try to break the
record that stood as the top mark
Of all the golf pros in the United
States last year. So far this year
Fred has played only 200 rounds Of
golf, for an average Of only around
one 'and q quarter rounds . day,
which makes him practically . sissy
when you compare 1t with his stunt
Of 1887. But he's still in . pretty
fair way to make Albert Mackenzie
pay OF bet Albert made against him
last winter.
The boys were fighting the battle
Of the fairways in the locker room
at Columbia around the beers, dis
cussing Freddy's total Of golf rounds
and the way he scored. DO you
think he'll average better than Is to
the round?" asked Luther c. (Pop)
Steward. Not by couple Of strokes" !"
answered Albert r. Mackenzie, the
trans Mississippi senior champ. How
about q bet?" asked Pop. Sure, how
about dinners for about 10?" queried
Albert. YOU'RE on" said Pop. and
the battle was on.
Averages ~ Strokes.
So far, the professor has averaged
better than "A In his 200 rounds, and
Is in pretty fair way to win the bet
for Pop" Steward. OF course, there
are winter days to come, when you
won't get any roll on tee shots, but
they also are the days Of preferred
lies.
And there are also those hot
summer days when you ct .
lot of distance Oh the tee.
Think youu do it," I asked Fred.
Sure" he said. The Scots are that
,, way about words, too.
One Of the factors that will keep
Fred from licking that 1887 record
IS the fact that william H. Hinshaw,
his "star" pupil and steady golf COM
panion, has left town for the summer.
Those early-morning rounds won't be
played any more by the professor until
Hinshaw returns, but Fred will play
nearly every afternoon, when he isn't
