Says She Did Not Enter “So, that's the way it is,” snapped Suzanne, and she made a beeline for the office of the secretary. M. Simon, however was ill and absent from the grounds. “They advertise me as playing in a tournament in which I never was en- tered, as I specifically told the of- ficials,” declared Mlle. Lenglen. “Gate receipts first, and let the spectators’ disappointment spend itself on Suz- anne. “‘Surely tennis players are not im- mune from the ailments which af- fect other people.

Newspaper critics at the ring- side were divided in their opinion of the justice of the decision, Those who favored it were not enthusiastic and those against were bitter in their denunciation. For one of the few times since boxing bouts have been permitted under recent legislation, the crowd became demonstrative to an extent that worried the police and squads of bluecoats had difficulty in clearing the alsles, It was evident when the men en- tered the ring that Genaro's friends were in the majority and they booed Villa when he was escorted to his dressing room. For two-thirds of the way the fight was not of championship caliber and the fans, to whom Villa always showed an untiring aggressiveness, were surprised when he chose a strategy of defense. For 10 rounds the bout bordered on sloth, but in the last five the mixing was so furi- ous that the spectators were in almost constant uproar. Fight Cautiously. Caution was the order of the early rounds. The little fellows stood pos- ing for long stretches, moving now and again about like animals about to spring, and frequently they did leap like cats, but the early damage was negligible. Villa seemed the more aggressive and his punches seemed as steaming as his challenger's, but he was warned more often than the winner for ob- Jjectionable tactics and once or twice |the crowd booed him contemptuously. Besides a left hook to the jaw and two-handed digs to the ribs, Villa em- ployed toward the end of the bout the “rabbit” punch. He used it with his back hand once when Genaro was not exactly facing him and it caused loud disapproval. On the whole Genaro was more cautious than his opponent and in the constant exchanges the Filipino seemed at a great advantage. But the New Yorker was not so tired, nor did he show the effects of punishment that Villa did. Even so, the difference was small, Geharo used his right effective- iy and though he missed frequently, his accuracy was greater than Villa's. The last round probably gave Gen- aro the title. Twice his right hand | caught the Filipino squarely on the point of the jaw and the champion’s knees sagged. But Pancho came back and after a clinch was in a furious ex- change when the bell rang. one of the most beautiful exhibitions she has ever given. At the end of the match the spectators rose and cheered her. A memorial show for the late Andy Thomas, the boxer who died after col-| lapsing in a ring at Brooklyn a lcw‘ weeks ago, is being planned by New | | stella ... Mrs. Mallory and Mlle. Lenglen met as the French girl was leaving the court. Their greetings were cor- dial but brief. st Is Due For Another Defeat Experts, in comparing the present form of Lenglen and Mrs. Mallory predict that the American woman is | due for another defeat if they should meet at Mentone next week, although Mrs. Mallory's play yesterday was much improved. She defeated Miss Rucros in the third round of the singles, 6—0, 6—1, and thus reached the semi-finals, in which she will meet Mrs. Satterthwaite today. Mrs. Mallory and Miss Howell reached the third round in the wom- en's doubles by winning from{ Mrs. Graham and Miss Tobin, England, 6—1, 6—3. It is considered likely that they will reach the semi-finals, where they will encounter Mile. Lenglen and Miss Ryan. Count Balbl, winner of the Men's Singles Cup last year, was eliminated | today by Leighton Crawford, 6—3, 6—4., Mile. Lenglen has definitely decided to play in the singles and women's doubles in the tournament opening at Mentone next Monday. She will be | paired with Miss Elizabeth Ryan, | America, in the doubles.
