By HENBY L. FARRELL (United Press Sports Editor) ARTICLE, ONE NEW YORK, Aug. 27.—(United Press.)—One of the most unusual and least expected happenings of the mad rush of big summer sporting events this season was the default of Mile, Suzanne Lenglen in the middle of thee Wimbledon tournament and the withdrawal of her entry~ before the Olympic tennis championship in Paris. Her default at Wimbledon took away from her what she had claimed was a recognized world’s champion- ship, although she can fall bac.: upon the claim that she was not beaten and that shw will be the cham- pion as long as she is not beaten by any rivals who aspire to the title. When she decided to quit Wimble- don. after Miss Elizabeth Ryan, the former California woman. had given her the fight of her life, her wisdom was not questioned and her motives caused ho suspicion. It was accepted in London tennis circles that the French girl did not feel quite up ta her game and that, she wanted to save herself for the Olymp'c match- es. The loss by defau!t of her Wim bledon championship was cons‘dered a very serious step, but the opnor- tunity of winning the Olympic cham. pionship had its good points. The same stars that played at Wimble- don .were entered in the O'ymplc matches and there were add'tional entries from other nations that gave the Olympic officials good reasons for advancing the matches as being for the world’s champlonship. Then, also. Mile. Lenglen by prim ing herself for the Paris games could have claimed the world's champion ship and she could have won first place and probably thee for France in the singles, doubles and mixed doubles. There must have been good rea- sons for her refusal to take advan- tage of the fine opportunity for further glory that Were offered in the Olympic matches. By elimina- tion it might be advanced that she was physically unfit, as she claimed, or that she is through as a cham- Pion player. It is all up to the in- dividual to form an opinion. There are, however, a lot of back- ground facts to support a bellef that some ‘important factor of her game has broken, There are two major factors in a game. There is the arm that puts the power and the strokes In the racquet and there is that some thing else that keeps the arm going. Phyicial illness can take the power out of the arm, but even a weak arm and a frail body can do a lot of ten- nis when there is a stout heart pump- ing and a will to win oiling the ma- chinery. It is a privilege of a boxing writer to criticize freely when he finds rea- son to point out that a fighter doesn't lke rough going. The turf writer can call a thoroughbred a front runner and the animal never will know it. The baseball writer can say that a player gives, ground on the bases or that a catcher doesn't block the plate. But, for obvious reasons, a writer who is called upon to cover sports in which women compete has restrictions, It would be ungentlemanly and ex- tremely in bad taste to express an opinion that a woman tennis player, & woyian golf player or a woman swimmer glacks courage. While such opinions should net be express: ed publicly they can be held pri- vately: Through the early rounds of the Wimbledon championship, when she was opposing frightened opponents who were overawed and beaten be- fore they took the courts, Mlle. Len- glen’s game seemed to be as brilliant as it ever was. She was the same mistress of many strokes, the same cool player, the same steady artist that had become the boast of Paris; the toast of the Riviera and the f: of England. Feven in her first !mportant match with Miss Ryan, her game was per- fect. It had to be a champton's game or she never could have sur- vived. Miss Ryan happened to have eat day. She had played the Frerch star so many times in the past that she knew she couldn’t get anywhere trying to match strokes with her or duel her with wits. She accepted the only ghance to win and set out upon a wild offensive game, going after everything and throwing caution to the remotest corners of he . stpdium. She outlucked her ench opponent and gave her the nt of her life. But no champion s beaten on luck alone. Steadiness and class told, and Suzanne won. The physical endurance she had demonstrated in the hard match and the artistry of her strokes thrillec those of her admirers in London who had not dropped her when she made some unkind remarks about English sportsmanship during th winter months. She had dented responsibilf- ty for the statements, and while there was not the old personal sent!- ment for her in the Wimbledon stands there was that gracious Eng- lish courtesy offered to a visiting lady. It was heralded as a fine thing that Suzanne was in such splendid form, because it made possible a tennis match fit for the gods if she found Helen Wills against her in the final round. London was quite mad about our young champion, Down in their hearts the Englishmen wanted Helen to win and they wanted her to beat a Lenglen who was in the best of Lenglen form. Lenglen looked and acted to bein the hest form possible. Even when the young American poorly and lost (Copyright, 1924, QUESTION—OCould you tell me how many bats and balls the Cin- cinnati club used in 19237 ANSWER—The total number of baseballs used by Cincinnat! was 6,160.
