Y., August 20.—Favored by the luck of the draw, which placed her in one half of the tourney with three of her out- standing rivals in the other half, Helen Wills, national tennis cham- pion, has only two more obstacles in her way to the final round of the title tournament now in its final stages at the West Side Club. While the young California title- holder faces a formidable opponent today in Joan Fry, 18-year-old Eng- lish girf, the two women who rank as | the outstanding title contenders will fight it out in the feature match of | the quarter finals. The opponents in this are Elizabeth Ryan, Californian, who has come back om England in | | quest of more laurels, and Kathleen McKane, ranking British ace. Miss ityan, probably the greatest strategist in the tournament, is | tavored to win, but Miss McKane may come through if she continu the sensational streak of playing that | enabled her’ to vanquish Mrs. Marion essup, fifth ranking American player, yvesterday in two love sets. Miss Wills, though she defeated Miss Fry last week in the Wightman cup matches, may have more diffi- culty this time with her young rival, who played brilliantly vesterday to put out Mary K. Browne, second in | the mational ranking, in three sets. In the other singles matches Mrs. Molla Mallory is opposed to Penelope Anderson of Richmond, Va., who scored an international victory yes- terday over Evelyn Coyler of Eng- land, while Eleanor Goss of New York ces the veteran British player, Mrs Lambert Chambers.

With only 18 qualifying this year, it is the belief of close followers of ama- teur golf that 155 will be pretty much the ragged edge. Indeed. if conditions are favorable, the qualifying mark may range several shots below this. One thing is certain, none but a golfer of real hitting and shot-making ability will win at Oakmont. The un- usually long, rolling layout favors such long hitters as Jones, Ouimet, Gullford, Gardner, Von Elm, Lam!’ precht, MacKenzie and Wright Oakmont is specially suited to golfers who can play a full iron or Wood shot well. There are a number of holes calling for long difficult sec- ond shots and the player who can ne- gotlate these successfully is going to meet with success there. The greens are large and undulating so that good putters also will be favored. Oakmont has been tightened some- what since the last amateur was | played there. The erratic player will | be in a bad way, for when a ball lodges in one of those furrowed traps the player will pay the penalty of one stroke at least. No one can get any distance in recovering from these S h 1t And so the qualifying rounds of | L D e 40 Monday and Tuesday, August 31 and | Yale star failed to qualify for September 1, will offer a severe strain | "“;"'h r;!-nh, one of mplg,’,,:‘,.’.: to the great majority of contestants, | PTiSes of t "v'v’y’"l”"’;”'i“’" e 205 1O One poor hole and their trip to Pitts. |3, YOUngster who had just come burgh will have been in vain so far | ihe ranks of the leaders throug v g | NINE the intercollegiate c s the chance of winning any title is| g5} CROE Beins s e of 1920, beating Chick Evans in GOLFERS ARE PLAYING -1 S5t o s i FROM DAWN TO DAR |Max Marston in 1923, the Ph EXCEPTIONS By the N many a startling exception, such a liards Associated Prosa for around a score of years tured the British amateur golf tit SWEETSER EXPECTS 70 STAR IN TOURNE By the Associated Press OAKMONT, Pa., August William Sweetser has given warnt for the Nation's amateur their annual meeting at Country Club, beginning August 31 At Merion a vear ago golfers t w in w phian winning at the 38th hole | In {the third round, where he was elin | nated by Fred J.

It has come ) be something tradition In the national game that no club can win more than four major league pennants n a row. The Giants, setting a mod ern record and duplicating a feat per | tormed twice in the old davs, did it last season. They still have a fight ing chance to break the jinx, but the odds right now are against them Yankees Are an Example. Y ng in The disintegration of the Yankees is further proof that the champlonship pace has its limits. From a pennant winning combination in 1921, 1922 and 1 the Huggins clan slid back to second place last vear, and this season is in seventh place. McGraw's champlons of 1913 fell back to second place in 1913 and to last place in 1915. Connle Mack's title-winning outfit of 1914 was broken up and dropped to the cellar in one season. The old Baltimore Orioles Chicago Cubs, Pittsburgh Pirates and Detroit Tigers found it impossible to win more than three times in a row Another turn of the pages of sport seems to show a mystic quality in the number “7.” Jim Jeffries and Jack Johnson held the heavyweight boxing crown for seven years, while Jack Dempsey is now in his seventh year the top. Benny Leonard retired after seven seasons as lightweight king. R the first recog nized America champion, won the title seven years in a row William A. Larned captured the same crown seven times. The seven r span of 1907 to 1914 saw Au a mainly the top of the tenn! heap in Davis Cup play. The same influence or coincidence has been at work in women's tennis. where Suzanne Lenglen, barring an exception or two due more to {llness and temperament than any lapse in playing supremacy, has been at the top through seven seasons, while Mrs Molla B. Mallory was queen of Amer fcan courts seven times. It is unusual now for a golf cham pion to win twice in succession.
