Farrell, (United Press Staft Correspondent) New York, June 18.-Looking for- | ward to future battles, the Lenglen- | Mallory tennis encounter appears as| | promising as any number on a pro- gram filled with summer classics. ‘When the two greatest women ten-| Inis players come to America after| | battling at St. Cloud and Wimbledon, most anything can be expected. | There is no love lost between the | French and American stars. Bitter | feeling ran through the French hard ! court championships, in which Mlle. | Lenglen defeated Mrs. Mallory in the finals. ! The ill-feeling was somewhat re-| lieved when Mlle. Lenglen jumped‘, over the net after the finals and| | shook the hand of the American wo- man. | The French championships proved | that Mlle. Lenglen is not so superior in her class as she was generally rat- ed. She did win the title, but victory came to her more through Mrs. Mal- lory's error than through her cwn individual brilliance. Mlle. Lenglen respects-the ability of the American woman as was shown in the finals of the French tourna- ment when she resorted to safety first metrods and abandon her usual dashing smashing game. Mrs. Mallory is now in her. great- est form. She was permanently off in the finals and practically beat her- self. Conditions will be reversed when she gets the flashy French star on Amcrican courts. POLO HANDICAPPED IN ENGLAND BY WAR By Charles McCann, (United Press Staft Correspondent) London, June 17.—England, though suffering many disadvantages because of the war, will do its utmost to beat America at the polo cup | matches and will have no excuse to plead if it loses, Maj. Vivian Lockett, captain of the English side, said in an interview today with the United | Press. “We were badly hit during the war,” Maj. Lockett said, “first as to grounds, second as to ponies, third as to breeding and fourth as to play- ers. “As to grounds, several of our lclubs have had to close because | th have had neither players nor| !munuy. As to breeding and ponies, {war, and etaoshrdluaoi shru 34566 breeding was stopped during the war; and many players were forced to sell| ,their ponies.

STRANGE EPIDEMIC INVADES BEMIDJI' Baf- “Midsummer Madness” fling Physicians and Others WILL REACH PEAK FRIDAY “Midsummer Madness,” which has been noticed to a large extent in practically all of the larger cities this season, has not passed up Bemidji. It is baffling physicians, druggists, and, in fact, nearly all local residents have been n the look-out for it since cer- tain advertisements of warning began to appear in the Daily Pioneer. It seems that the moon has a lot to do with it and if you should add to that the eyes and lips of a pretty woman, the results are positively dis- astrous. Among those already badly smitten are Margaret Meredith and Julian Osborn, and the result has almost, but not quite, broken up two happy homes. Their entire story will be exposed in motion pictures at the Elko The- atre next Friday, Saturday and Sun- day.—Advertisement. the least feature.
