Bhe | was deafeated In the semi-finals by | Senorita De Alvarez, Spanish cham- | plon at 2-6, 6-0, 6-4. Senorita De Alvarez, sporting a bright red turban and sweater, and Miss Ryan in a pale blue jersey and cream-colored tennis suit, took the courts at 1:60 p. m. The Spanish champion appeared drawn and nerv- ous, but Miss Ryan was calm and cool, and the picture of health. The American won the first game at love, on her opponent’s service, the senorita making two errors. | Miss Ryan soon ran up a lead of | 3-1, breaking through the Spanish girl's service twice and winning her own once. Both players were cau- tious, playing careful baseline ten- nis. Miss Ryan ran her lead up to 5-1, continually attacking. Senorita De Alvarez, who thus far had played listless tennis, suddenly came to life and took the seventh game on her service. The American won the next to take the first set at 6-2. Senorita De Alvarez carried the | score to 4-0 and the American girl appeared unable to make a suc- cessful defense against her relent- less attack. Miss Ryan, staged a brilliant rally at this point electrifying the im- mense crowd as she took four games in succession and carried the set to 4 all. The Spanish girl seemed tired but was able to capture the next two games and with them the set and match. Senorita De Alvares came back strongly to win the second set with- out the loss of a game. Senorita De Alvarez, beginning with the seventh game of the first set, played much improved tennis. She carried the eight game to deuce three times on the American’s serv- ice, but finally lost the set at 6-2. The Spanish girl was not going to the net but it seemed that Miss . [ L5 %4 ] : N .

Senorita De Alvarez held the up- per hand throughout the second set, and Miss Ryan failed to win a single game, although she fought hard. The Spanish girl passed her opponent several times for clean placements after drawing Miss Ryan to the net with chop strokes. The senorita had removed her red sweater and was attacking in earn- | est, putting the American on the | defensive. Many of her strokes were risky, but she seemed incapable of | error. She kept much pace and length on her drives, forcing Miss | Ryan to do a lot of running. The Spanish champlon, continu- | ing her winning pace, took a lead | of 2-0 in the third set. Up to this point she had won eight straight games. Miss Ryan was not dominated by burner. early in the day, if burner—above the flame, which might results. as the score indicated. She was car- rying all the games to deuce, but was unable to make any headway against the Spanish girl, who was imposing her style of play upon her, and keeping her away from the net Manitoba Vote on Beer Not Yet Fully Counted Winnipeg, Man., June 30.—(P— The large majority established by cities in favor of the sale of beer by the glass in Manitoba dwindled to- day as returns from Wednesday's provincial elections rural districts.

The Red Star “Lively Heat” Burner converts common kerosene or gasoline into 2 gaseous vapor, which is then burned and produces the same “Lively Heat” as coal, gas or electricity. Natural- ly, there are no wicks or wick substitutes. Until you have seen foods that have been cooked by Red Star you will not begin to realize what a tre- mendous difference “Lively Heat” makes in cooking “Lively Heat” is the dancing, vigorous, active heat above a bed of red-hot coals—above a modern gas e In each case it is the same heat. Only the fuel is different. It is the “Lively Heat” that good cooks of all times have known as the only kind of heat that can do perfect cooking and baking. “Lively Heat” is produced by burning vapors or gases Contrasted to it is the languid, lifeless heat of a candle A.
