American newspapers always have been generous in paying trib- ute to the modesty and ability of their champion, but they have “not gone so fur as to tell her how good looking she is. While the primary purpose of her journey to Europe was to do her best in the Wimbledon matehes and the Olympic none the less important scored such a complete personal triumph. Col. Robert Thompson, president of the American Olympic committee, said, during the early s of the organization of Amer- participation in the Paris that one of the principal purposes in entering a large num- her of teams was to sell the United States to the world. pointed out that the United St was being misunderstood greatly in Europe since the war and; that the athletes had a great chance to show on the field of sport that the United States did have some real {denls. He insisted that the American athletes should be gentle- that she He men first and victors after, if pos, sible. eee The ideals as laid out by Col. Thompson for the American athletes certainly’ were upheld far beyond their natural Umitations by the American rugby team. If it ever was shown that the United States wants nothing more than an even break and will accept less without complaint, it was shown by the California football players. Under the circumstances, then, it is most pleasing that Miss Wills sold herself and her country sa suc- cessfully to the English people, even if the French may permit their poor sportsmanship prejudice them against her when she goes to Paris.

Expert opinion in this country {s divided about the chances of the young champion to beat Mile. Suzanne Lenglen. Those who might be classed with the conservatives believe that she may be handicapped by the lack of experience and accu- racy in the execution of her shots. Those more inclined to brave opin- ions say that sho will outgame the French girl and that her valiant fighting heart and her ideal com- petitive temperament will make up for what inferiority there might be in her game. Bill Tilden, the world’s champton. the greatest player of all times and one of our most able critics, said recently that the Berkeley miss will win if she can control her attack. He explained that he meant, not that she might lack the nervous equipment to keep up her game, but that she would experience some- thing new {n controlling her game with the English ball in play. As has been said before, we be- eve that Miss Wills not only can beat the world’s champion, but that she will beat her, Compared to the game ‘of the American girl, Mlle. nglen may have a 100 per cent ne, but her game will be not much more than 50 per cent of its strength under the fire that she most certainly will be asked to Figuring that accuracy may mean more than the driving power_of a very virlle and masculine game, Miss Wills may have only a 70 per cont game compared to the French girl's. But her game will be 70 per cent on every ‘stroke from the first to the very last. The American girl will be inspired and strengthened by competition Ke. and the French champion ‘will be disspirited by it.
