OURNEMOUTH. England, May 6. —Helen Jacobs, United States tennis champlon who hopes to add both the French and Wim- bledon titles to her collection this year, started her European invasion rather | inauspiciously as she lost today to| ing player, in the final of the British hard court championships. The scores were 3—6, 6—2, 6—3. However, it was Miss Jacobs first tournament play since last Summer and | on her way to the final she defeated two | doughty opponents in Mrs. Efleen Ben- | nett Whittingstall and Mary Heeley, | ranking English star. ‘The wistful-eyed little Miss Round, a member of the 1932 Wightman Cup team and a probable selection for the | 1933 team, hai too many strokes for | the American title holder and settled | down after a shaky start to completely | outplay Miss Jacobs. | As Miss Jacobs chopped her way to | victory in the first set the galleries | resigned themselves to seeing another | title go to the United States but Miss | Round started vollying in the second | set, going to the net at every oppor- tunity and soon had Miss Jacobs on the run. The American girl rallied for | 8 time in the third set and attempted 1o go to the net herself but Miss Round | neatly passed her and drove balls to the corners for telling points. It was the first important tourna- ment victory for Miss Round, the little Sunday school teacher from Dudley, ‘Worcestershire.
