There may be a few squalls ahead for Queen Helen, who has missed only one year at the top since 1923, but it I like smooth sailing once more for her in the national championships. The nickname, “Little Miss Poker " first was applied to her back ., when as a girl of 17 she »d the championship from Molla Bjurstedt Mallory for rst time, and with surprising ease. In a few of her campaigns since then, as a matter of fact, has Miss Wills played with more superb ease, control and confidence Still short of her 24th birthday, has now won five of the six national champion- ships, ssing up the 1926 tourna- ment as a result of an operation for appendicitis. She has cap- tured the prized Wimbledon title for the past three seasons. In threz straight years, she has drop- ped only one set and she hasn't been defeated since July, 1926, a year in which she dropped three matches to Suzanne Lenglen in France and to Mrs. Mailory at Rye, before she decided not to risk her health by entering "the national championship. Althogether Miss Wills has lost only half a dozen matches in any tournament since 1923. Elizabeth Ryan and Kitty McKane, now Mrs. L. A. Godfree, share with Lenglen and Mallory the distine- tion of conquering Queen Helen after her rise to the top. In five American championship tourna- ments, the Californian has lost only five sets and none of them since 1925 in the Forest Hills clas- sic. She lost a set in the sem finals to Miss McKane in 1923, an- other to Mary K. Browne in the 1924 se finals and was extended to three sets in each of her last three matches in 1925, by Joan Fry, Eleanor Goss and Miss Mec- Kane. Betty Nuthall and Helen Jacobs are two of the rising threats to the reign of Queen Helen. One or the other may be the Californian’s suc- cessor eventually but thus far neither has bscn able to more than temporarily disturb the champion. | It is noteworthy that star ath- letes in other branches of sport, seasoned performers, take quickly to golf. tive spirit to start with and they have confidence, which is almost half the battle in any game. : Boston They have the competi- | | vance, Sam _Byrd, Sam Rice. —————.-— GAMES TULSDAY [ Pacific Coast League |San Francisco 8; Seattle 4.
