' M. de Jeannls stirred everything up again when he Issued a statement te

"I shook hands with Mile I.englen before she entered the court." lld
M. de Jeannls. "Her bund was cool icnd her pule normal. She was confident.

name of the tperttng treId of her country and cnuld net fare defeat."
Abandoned Several Matches
IT TAKKS nene te be a champion and plent of it. Mile T.enslen has been
queen en I'urepeim courts for a number of rears. Her ability, her tieterles
and her perhenalit hare been well press agented. She undoubtedly is a
remnrkable tennis plajer. and the American mind finds it difficult te link a
champion with one who "lanuet face defeat "
On scleral occasions madeiueibelle has abandoned matches when the
Competition was stern.
During the UI'JO senmn. when Miss Kllabeth Ilyan. the California girl,
and M. J. (. Ritchie were In sfRbt of tictery agHinst Mile. I.englen and her
, partner, the champion stepped, pleaded indisposition and was carried te the
clubhouse.
With games two-all and sets one-all in n doubles match tit Mente Cnrle
(last ear, Mile. Lenglen refused te continue pla when a referee's award was
given against her tenm.
Then came the episode of Ferest Hills, in which bronchitis was giten as
Mile. Lenglen'n excuse for her failure te complete the match against Mrs.
Mn!ler. .
Just recently in the hard-court championship abroad, the temperamental
uranne suffered from heart trouble In her match against Miss Kathleen
WcKane, the nineteen- cur-old Knglish girl who defeated Mrs. Mallery last
eek.
In this match Miss McKane wen four straight games in the first set.
Mademoiselle was seen te place her hand sacral times in the region of her
jfcenrt and leek appenlinglj at her father, who was in the stands. It was
thought that she would net finish, but Miss McKane began losing g.imes and
the heart trouble were off In the heat of lctery.
It as after this match that the Wonder (llrl announced she was dubious
eencernIng her entry In the singles nt Wimbledon. Her father and her phy
alclan had forbidden her te enter, the said
The statement brought a storm of criticism upon her shoulders in tenuis
Circles. Ien Mrs. Mallert , who seldom gives interviews te the press, was
moved te words.
f AM ettremtly disappointed ever Mile. Lenalen'n failure te defend
her title," iaid Mella. "I am skeptical regarding her recent
itatement saving heir much ike irantt te play mc again
think she u ready te face mc a ran the tennts net."
I don't
Breaks Against Suzanne
T3IS did net mean that Mrs. Mallery was otercenfident or had an exag
gerated opinion of her prowess en the courts. She was bitterly disap
pointed because she made the trip te Europe for the one purpose of showing
,the world her victor "er the marvelous Susnnnc nt Ferest Hills last sum sum
xeer wan no fluke.
Mile. Lenglen also was perturbed when she read Molln's statement.
"I will net fight mi battles In the columns of the newspapers," she said.
"I shall fight them en the tennis courts "
Whether Suzanne has a weak heart, bronchitis, bad colds nnd ether nll
lents which would interfere with her plavlng remains te be seen. We nil
remember the Ferest Hills incident, but apparently hate oierleoked the fact
that Mile. Lenglen stepped off the beat a few- da8 previeusl, nnd en the
first daj, itiKteud of meeting Miss floss, the latter defaulted nnd she wns
pitted against Mrs. Maller. An eican eagc is net the best thing in the
world for training purposes, nnd Suzanne prebabl felt the effects of the trip.
Therefore. It might be well te overlook the teiirnamint last jear and wait te
ee what happens nt Wimbledon.
Psjrholegy will pin un important pan in the match if the rivals ever
meet. Mella is tenfident that if there is any one in the world bhe can beut,
It is Suianne Lenglen. The Norse gir! is a wonderful match player; that is,
he plnya her best when most Is at stake. She phis with a dogged fury, out eut
driving and eutgamlng her opponent and does net knew the meaning of the
word "quit." She Is in England new te defeat Mile. Lenglen. Thnt thought
la uppermost In her mind.
True, she bus been defeated twice, but that Is likely te happen te any
one. It must be remembered, howeer, thnt eery time'she played the full
three sets and was buttling hard at the end. She did net retire or discover a
weak heart.

French Girl Dreads Defeat
MLLE. LENftLEN has allowed the dread of her possible defeat te become
an obsession, Apparentl she has allowed this fear te dominate her in
the last two e,irs and relapsed into means of nteldlng whnt she would seem
ingly consider quite unnec ess iri! In lew of her supremacy as Irreparable
disaster which would hme otherwise sullied her unchallengeable reputation.
It Is quite a long time since Suzanne Knew the sorrows of defeat at the
bands of n woman e peuent, and it is possible that she may have come te
think the meldame of a blaik mark en her clean sheet compensates for her
Jess of dignit.
' Once upon u time Mile. Lenglen faced the tuins of fortune with complete
JrapassMt nnd had a grent reputation for wonderful spertsninnshlp. Since she
becume world's champion, however- of the importance of which she seems te
batu a nierbidl exaggerated new sh,. ms become temperamental. That's
the story.
Mile Lenglen expected te defeat Mrs Mallery Inst summer. She had
tvrry uppearnnie of a conqueror when she tripped en the courts, acknowledged
the heart applause and prepare d te pla the serious-faced, sober-minded girl
from America.

' Draiv Against Mile. Lenglen
THE lurk of the draw Is against Suzanne at Wimbledon, as It was nt Ferest
Hills. The Wonder Girl of France will be called upon te meet Mrs. I'eu I'eu
ceck, Kathleen McKane and Elizabeth Jtjun in her bracket, while the only
possibly dangerous contender In Mrs. Mallery's half Is Mrs. Heamlsh, who
eftlready has been defrnted by the American champion.
The thrill of Ferevt Hills will be restnged nuild different surroundings
M4 en different courts. Mile, Lenglen's pride has been hurt and she is
tager te prove she Is the best woman tenuis player In the world.

from the gray-thatched dome of J. Pat

Jehnnv Dundee, of New Yerk, and
Dnnny Frush, who was knocked out by
the champion, arc the mlttmen whom
the commission hns decided te settle
their pugilistic differences, the victor
te be declared featherweight champion.
As seen as thc announcement was made,
a number of ambitious lCrl-peundcrs
wanted te knev? "hew ceme!"
One of the first featherweights te
step te the bat and one who has a geed
argument te show his peevishness for
being "overlooked" by the commission
is Andy Chnney, of Baltimore. Andy
twice met Kllbane In no-declslen
mntches and each time Chaney showed
se well that n majority of the news
papers rendered the decision In favor
of the nnltlmercan.
Anether point that is being breueht
up by Eddie Mead, Chaney's mnnager,
is the fact that Andy went through
without defeat in n' recent sort of n
featherweight elimination held by Tes
Ilicknrd In the Garden. In thnt
tourney Mead shows that Chancy wen
from Charley Beecher, Sammy Sieger
and Babe Herman.
"These nre only three of Andy's
victims," states Mend, for the list of
men Chaney has beaten in the last few
years entails most of the stnrs of the
profession."
Further states Mead :

Thnt's the story.
Thc news was halted with mere acclaim, and rightly se, than HutcnW,

Fer some time it looked like an American sweep of the flrtt three plte
but lute In thc afternoon Geerge Duncan came through with a 74 In his feuw
round and tied Barnes for second.
Te the business man who takes golf as a recreation, Ilegen's cerulttaei
wns uncanny. He averaged three ever fours for each eighteen holes efu!
seventy-two.
Hagen hns gene after the British open three times, finishing fifty-first h
his first effort and getting within the money limits last year. The third '"ttttt
brought the goal.

Milwaukee Entry Defeats Lecal
Italian at Mailer's Park
Pat Bradley, Little Italy favorite,
was defeated In the star bout of eight
rounds at Halter's Park last night.

forced the fighting.
Rawlins worked a pretty left Jab
which he kept sticking into Bradley's
face in every round. At close quar
ters Bradley beat a tatoe en Len's
body, hut the letter's better boxing
from the distance entitled him te the
decision.
In the semi-final Billy Gannon re
