Mrs. Robber was right at his heels.
Once under the porch they turned
and squatted side by side, where
they could look out and see If Shad-

on their sharp faces was partly Of

ahead I cannot keep myself from letting up. Consciously, soften my game and ease up on the pressure. And I know enough about sports to know that the great champions never did that. When Dempsey knocked rival down three times he wanted to knock him down three more times. Bobby Jones and Wal ter Hagen increased the pressure when they got ahead of an oppon- ent.

I've tried to make myself do the same thing, but 1t was no use. know I would have won more matches and championships had I possessed what you fellows call the killer spirit"
 I asked Alice if that were the reason for her slump against Helen Jacobs in the final round of the nationals at Forest Hills last sum- mer. That was the time, you will recall, when Alice won the first set at love with scarcely the loss of 8 point, and then was just three games away from losing the title in the third and final set.
 Fortune Teller
 'No," she answered, "that wasn't the cause. It was Helen's courage and fight that nearly upset me that day. And while we are speaking of that match, let me correct some thing that you and dozen who re- ported the match wrote. Most of you said that I checked up in the final set because I knew that vic- tory was worth fifty or sixty thous- and dollars to me, and that this Knowledge made me nervous. That's not true. If I had stopped to think about such thing as that Helen would have beaten me. You can't let mind wander that far in final round match and still win. The truth is, most athletes have the silliest thoughts during critical mo- ments. When I was behind l-3 in the final set remembered what a fortune teller had told me in San Francisco months before. The gysy had told me that I would win the title, but only after @ bad scare. All of a sudden that prediction gave me confidence and I started hitting my shots the way I should hit them."
 Alice plans to defend her titles in the east this year, but frankly admits that she doesn't think 1t will be much fun. Without bragging, she doesn't think women's tennis is any too strong right now, and feels that she will have a rather easy time winning. She thinks the mems tournaments will be dull, too, with Welby Van Horn as the only youngster with a chance to give 1t some life.
