Helen Wills regards Miss Jacobs as too aggressive to be suitable as a partner and Miss Jacobs holds a similar attitude toward the champion. And back of all this lies an interesting story of rivalry. Miss | Jacobs cast her lot with a rival leading sorority. Sorority rivalry is no insignificant thing at a State university.

It was the most distinctive Sport Style worn by the best dressed men at this “Playground of Royalty.” We traced this original Spectator Sport Shoe to Allen & Bridge, London, one of the oldest and best known makers of “bespoke” shoes in England. We paid fivs pounds ten shillings ($26.50) for the OriYinal Hand-Made Sport Shoe and we asked Allen & Bridge to make up 39 more pairs so we could show you one of the ($26.50) Originals with the ($6.60) Regal Reproduction—side by side .in 78 Regal Stores in the U. S. A.. ‘The original English model is made of Genuine White Buckskin with “full brogue brown calfskin fixings.” It is known as a “Ball Strap” pattern, which is useful as well as decorative, as it prevents the soft Buckskin vamp from spreading across the ball of the foot. ‘The Regal Reproduction is also made of Genuine White Buckskin and has the same “‘full brogue brown calfskin fixings” as the original model, i. e., punched and notched brown calfskin Tip, free Ball Strap, Lace Stay and Outside Counter. In the Regal Reproduction we followed every detail of the expensive Hand-Made Original English Model—Last, Leather, Lining, “Feathered” Leather Sole and Solid Leather Heel. Volume makes this Value possible. We make 1,000 pairs to Allen & Bridge’s one. And this is only One of the Greatest Line of Sport Shoes in America.
