Helens Promise Net Excitement
MEETING LOOMS
AT FOREST HILLS
Mrs. Moody’s Wimbledon
Win of 1935 Spices Rivalry
of Californians.
nr GKAN1UND KICK.
IP YOU are looking ahead for your
excitement, you will have no
trouble locating the same at For
est Hills a little later on when
Helen Hull Jacobs and Helen Wills
Moody stand on the same court to
gether, waiting for the call to arms—
provided, of course, that Mrs. Moody
re-enters the Forest Hills arena. This
coming meeting was given a new pub
lic Impetus when Miss Jacobs won
for the first time at Wimbledon
■gainst the pick of Europe.
Just a year ago, in this same Wim
bledon tournament, Miss Jacobs had
Mrs. Moody on the edge of a slippery
precipice with only a shot to go when
• n» older and mauled Helen suddenly
■came on from nownere to win one of
ine star upluil battles of sport.
Mrs. Moody passed up the United
Btetes championship then. This *ee
aon she passed up Wimbledon for
Forest Hills, where the customers are
sure to get all the action they want.
Has an Enviable Record.
A/tRS. MOODY won the United
^ States singles championship In
3923-1924-1925-1927-1928-1929 and
3 931. She won at Wimbledon in
1927-1928-1929-1930-1932-1933-1935.
If you add up these figures you will
find the total amounts to 14 national
championships—which doesn’t include
the only Olympic championship ever
played, at Paris, in 1924. It is a rec
ord which has carried on for 13 years
of competition. In 1933 she lost by
default to Miss Jacobs, thereby start
ing one of the longest and warmest
arguments in sport.
Mis* Jacobs has no such lifetime
record to match the Moody count.
But Miss Jacobs won the United
States championship in 1932-1933
3934 and 1935. She also won at
Wimbledon in 1936, which Is no rag
ged five-year record when you think
It over and consider the field. Miss
Jacobs has yet to win her first com
(JlCbCU 111awu 08°“"* I
missing her great chance a year ago
In England. About this match. Miss
Jacobs writes in her book, “Beyond
the Game ": "I had the lead. 40—30,
within one point of winning. As I
followed to the net behind a shot of
fair depth Helen put up a lcb which
dropped quicker than I anticipated
and caught me in an awkward posi
tion where I could neither smash nor
volley. I foolishly abandoned the use
of my flat drive in favor of a slice,
Which hung a bit too high.”
No Anaemic Touches.
^T'HJSRE is nothing wraith-like about
* * either Helen. Both are built for
power—as well as speed. Not blinding
nr blazing speed—but the ability to
step around. They are strong of leg
and strong of arm.
Mrs. Moody has reached tennis
►eights beyond the reach of Miss
Jacobs, both being at their best. But
jMfss Jacobs is younger and she has
been playing much more tournament
hnnis in the last three years. You
must be tournament tough, according
Jo Bill Tilden, and this gives Miss
Jacobs one advantage anyway. She's
been belting the ball under fire steadily
for the last five years and longer, where
Airs. Moody has faced only one real
lest since 1933.
Mrs. Moody Is playing as well as she
•ver played. She is hitting the ball
»s hard and she is moving around as
quickly and as adroitly. At least this
Is the opinion of male stars who have
played against her recently.
Glance Back to 1931.
S HELEN WILLS, starting her
career as “Little Miss Poker Pace.”
►he California prodigy won the girl’s
•ingles championship in 1921. That
happens to be a matter of 15 years
•go. At that early date little Miss
Wills wore a pair of pigtails that kept
getting in her way before she changed
her style of hairdress. She was then
• round 15 years, maybe 1«. and it took
her just two years of waiting to win
the womens crown.
t doubt that any one in sport or!
•nt of sport has paid any more at-[
tendon to |he matter of physical well J
being than Mrs. Moody. Good health,
ras been an ODsession. sne nas osen
)n the headlines lor a long time, but
she still is young, and she looks and
feels even younger than she is.
Even at the top of her form, Helen
Jacobs will have a stormy afternoon
against her California rival and the
odds will be against her. In addition 1
♦o being a brilliant tennis player, Mrs.
Moody also is a keen antagonist, with
all the will to win that any foot bail
Coach ever could demand.
It should be a fine match if they
happen to meet—as almost surely they
Will if Mrs. Moody comes East. Con
sidering all the surrounding elements,
Jt will be one of the most interesting
personal contests of the year, played
before standing room. Miss Jacobs
now should be the worthiest opponent
Kirs. Moody has faced since the days
of ame. Suzanne Lenglen, when the
Caufornian was just arriving at her
best tennis. The Long Island atmos
phere will be fun of psychological
currents, and the phychologlcal Side
will remain with the older Helen. She
has beaten her opponent too many
times in the past.

London Bidding
For 1940 Games
T ONDON OP).—London wants
^ the 1940 Olympic games.
Sir Percy Vincent, lord mayor
of London, on behalf of the Brit
ish Olympic Association, has in
vited the International Olympic
Committee to hold the games here.
If the committee accepts, ar
rangements will be made to raise a
guarantee fund of $500,000, accord
ing to the British association. Half
that sum already has been pledged.
This city’s chief competitors for
the honor are Tbklo and Helsing
fors. The International Committee
will make its selection when it
meets in Berlin July 30 and 31.

{fr-r-\HERE ought to be a law,”
frequently is heard in situ
I ations which demand
A thought or action.
Actually there should be fewer laws
and more law observance.
In the matter of dog laws, aside
from those necessary for the collec
tion and distribution of taxes, most
communities would be better oft if
they had none; provided, people would
apply common sense and a spirit of
fair play to their dogs and the com
munity in their relations to their
neighbors and their control of their
pets.
Non-dog owners, as well as their
property, have a right to freedom from
molestation by dogs. And dogs have
a right ot proper training, which will
make them an asset instead of a lia
bility to their communities. They
also have a right to protection from
themselves, frcm their instincts to
roam, to chase cars, to nip unwary
persons.
Freedom for dogs, like freedom for
people, must not be confused with
license. A proper restraint of all dogs
at all times, adequate care of all dogs
at all times, would eliminate the ne- i
cessity for dog muzzling, quarantining
and other irksome regulations.
The Lead and Collar Club officially
has opened its doors to followers of
canine activities at the Ritz Carlton
Hotel, New York. Members and man
egers of dog clubs are invited to visit
as well as to hold meetings there.
'T'HE first six months of 1936 show
a marked increase in the number
of entries at all leading shows, but in
some cases the increase was phenom
enal. The Los Angeles classic chalked
up an increase of 66 per cent, attain
ing a total of 1,156 entries. The Oak
land show increased 28 per cent to a
total of 707 entries and the Golden
Gate Show, which showed an Increase
of 19 per cent, had an entry of 860.
In the East, the Cleveland classic
Jumped 20 per cent to a total of
1,370, while Morris and Essex, the
largest show in the country and the
largest outdoor show in the world,
increased 18 per cent over last year
and totaled 3,751 entries.
The territory between Baltimore
and Washington is known as the most
dog-minded section in the country.
Here dog shows, both in the Spring
and the Pall, are numerous, with a
light sprinkling of shows in Summer
and Winter. All these showed a con
sistent Increase in both entries and
attendance.
In many sections new shows have
taken their places on the various cir
cuits. One of these, the Baltimore
County show of last Spring, broke all
records for size of entry at a first
show, with a total of 852. The grand
total of 298 shows in 1935 probably
will be bettered by 10 to 15 per cent
In 1936.
]VEWS comes of the death of Re;.
p. Sparkcs1 international cham
pion bulldog Bunje. This dog was
well known to show goers in this
country, although he was owned by
the Canadian sportsman and Judge.
Bunje was extremely susceptible to
heat, like many of his breed, and
this weather proved too much for
him.
William H. Doherty announces the
arrival of four little bulldogs sired
by Ch. Royal Drum Major ex his

class at Washington, Baltimore and

Has your dog a shady place to rest?
How many times did you give him
fresh water today?
Have you combed out his undercoat
or had him stripped or plucked?
Does he have any fleas or lice?
How long since he has had a swim?
And how would you feel if you
could not do things for yourself and
nobody would do them for you?

^ «r GEORGE RUBER.
IT'S nothing to get excited about,
but a few blues have been caught
in the bay above the Middles.
These were caught trolling Satur
day evening around Hooper Island.
Understand that we do not recom
mend going after them Just yet, as
those caught were just small ones,
averaging 3 pounds, which probably
were driven to hunt for food far
afield from the pack because they
didn't have a chance around the
larger fish.
It shows, though, that they have at
least thought of going North, and be
fore many mere v.ccas have i -ssed
the hlg schools themoeJvec will be <jx
the move. Well let you know.
Now, as per usual hardheads and
trout are the main show. Skipper
Harry Woodburn at Solomons tells
us that nearly every boat was loaded
up with them over the week end,
especially those boats going over to
Hooper Island and cut In the channel.
He also noted that the rock around
Cedar Point are somewhat larger,
those caught lately weighing between,
2 and 3 pounds ns compared to pre
vious averages of 1 and 2 pounds.
’E'OR the really large rock—that is,
large for this part of the coun
try—you must go Into fresh or brack
ish waters. Tall Timbers and Piney
Point catches are averaging S to •
pounds, with an occasional 12-pounder
showing up.
Further on up the bay it’s the same
story, with the exception of rock.
Capt. T. E. Jones and V. F. Cannon
at North Beach report a high heat of
107, mostly croakers, garnished here
and there with a trout. They haven’t
caught any rock yet.
So many butts were operating at
*
the Gooses Saturday night and early
yesterday that it look id like a water
carnival, Jimmy Speller tells us. In
the boat with him were Charles Mil
ler, Evan Rosen, Doc Hubert and Nor
man Lee. Together they accounted for
87 hardheads, several of which were
double-headers, and three trout.
AUR own Potomac River Is more or
^ less out of the running this
time of year for anything except cat
fish. Plenty of these are being caught,
however, mostly between Fletcher’s
boat house and Chain Bridge. Sev
eral bacs were taught yesterday
around Little Falls, and oue small
mouth exhibited in Capper's store by
It & Shorter weighed Just a shade
under 3 pounds. Live bait Is being
used exclusively for bass, but there is
no reason why plugs should not get
results If care is used in their selection
and manipulation.
Weekly weather outlook — Some
probability of showers In Virginia
early part of week, otherwise gen
erally fair except for showers about
Friday. Cooler at beginning of week
and moderate temperature until about
Thursday, when it will become warm
er. Cooler again Saturday.
INDIA IN OLYMPICS
Will Defend Hockey Title, Enter
Races, Wrestling.
BOMBAY (£■).—India has decided
to send four runners and seven wrest
lers to the Olympic Games In addition
to the 17 hockey players already chos
en to defend the title in that sport.
Runners Include Swaml, the In
dian marathon champion, who has

hours 47 minutes. Swami also will par
ticipate in the steeplechase. Others
are Whiteside for the 100. 300. 400 and :
800 meters, Raunak Singh for the
1.500, 5.000 and 10,000 meters, and :
BhaUa, who now is in England, In
the middle distance*.
[OUGH ROW AHEAD
FOR NEMN DECK
Main Rival, N. Ritzenberg,
Has Reverse Prospect
in Parks Play.
BY BELL DISMER, JR.
PPRO ACHING the quarter
final round in contrasting
fashion, Pat Deck and Nate
Ritzenberg, first and second
shoices in the current Public Parks
ennis tournament at Rock Creek, to
lay found their lots reversed over the
remainder of the route to the final
urtth Deck being on the spot instead
>f the foremost contender.
Whereas Ritzenberg has been forced
■jo come from behind in each of his
,hree preliminary rounds while Deck
las dropped only nine games in two
matches, the latter now faces the op
position of three stem foes before
altering the title round.
Ritzenberg, on the other hand, ap
parently faces easy sailing until the
semi-final, where undoubtedly he will
meet bis younger brother, Allie. Deck,
Incidentally, faces one of the Rltzen
Perg brothers, Hy, today, after which
he must meet either Art Simmons,
Johnny Yeomans or Kent Boyle, de
pending upon the outcome of matches
Involving those three.
Before meeting Allie, Nate plays
Charles Heacock today and either
Eddie Jacob or Charles Groff In the
quarters. Jacob unquestionably will
give him his most difficult session,
Happy being the first of the seeded
players he will have met.
Old-Timer No Set-up.
OUT the lower halves of each of
U Rltzenberg's and Deck's brackets
reveal interesting possibilities before
seeded stars of each reach the next
to-last flight. While Allie Ritzenberg
meets Joe Baker today, Deane Judd
fangt UarK Sh«nlrin on ftlH.tlmbf tp
turning to the courts for the first
time in four years. The latter should
produce action belying the ages of
the contestants.
In Deck’s bracket two seeded stars
face foes who have come through their
first three matches In impressive fash
ion. Ray Stocklinskl, third ranking
player of the tournament, meets Felix
Silva, the hard-working little Filipino,
in this afternoon's first match at 4
o'clock, while Billy Contreras, play
ground champion, who Is seeded six,
meets Maurice Goubeau. Goubeau
has polished off three victims with the
loss of one set, that coming yesterday
at the hands of Erwin Niemeyer.
Half of the six favorites to play
yesterday had a load of trouble across
the net, which took them three sets
to put away. Larry Sherfy squared
his match with Deck when he took the
second set at 6—4, after dropping the
first, 6—2, Deck winning the final,
6—2. Contreras also found a tartar
In Stan Haney, playground depart
ment official, who took the first set
from the seeded star at 6—2. Con
treras grabbed the last two, 6—2, 6—1.
Nate Comes From Rear.
OIT2ENBERG, although he won
his first match of the day in
straight sets, showed unusual rallying
abilities against Bob Bradley, who had
fought him to a 9—9, darkness-ended
tie the previous day. Behind, 1—4,
Ritzenberg ran off five straight games
to take the first setto and almost
duplicated the performance in the sec
ond when Bradley had a S—1 lead,
only to see the favorite win. 7—5.
Braoiey's conqueror continued his
irregular play by dropping the first set
to Ted Pierce, former George Wash
ington University net captain, in the
afternoon at 6—8, only to stay in the
running with scores of 6—4. 6—1.
As expected, Sara Moore was the
outstanding performer as the women
started play, although Dorette Miller,
Dot Kingsbury, Joan Bransford, Peggy
Keyser Smith, Gladys Schellin and
Frances Walker Bassett all scored
opening round victories in straight
sets. Mrs. Bassett, a former cham
pion of the city, Is competing in her
first tournament of the year.
Six of yesterday’s victors meet this
afternoon, Mrs. Bassett facing Mrs.
Bransford, Mrs. Miller meeting Miss
Kingsbury and Mrs. Smith encounter
ing Miss Schellin. The presence of
Mrs. Bransford gives the Bransford
family a full representation in the
tournament, inasmuch as Joan's hus
band, Tom, was in the tournament up
until yesterday, when he was elimi
nated by Silva.

G. U. ECLIPSE PARTY
RETURNS TO U. S.
“Went 10,000 Miles to See a
Rainstorm,” Dr. McNally
Says.
“We went 10,000 miles to see a
rainstorm,” Rev. Dr. Paul A. McNally,
S. J., commented today in describing
the results of the Georgetown Uni
versity - National
Geographic Soci
ety expedition he
led half way
around the world
to observe the
eclipse of the
sun In Northern
Asia on June 19.
The eelipee lasted
3 Vi minutes.
Dr. McNally,
director of the
Georgetown Uni
versity Observa
tory, said "the
sun was almost
Dr. McNally. totally obscured
by the clouds and there were few
expeditions that weren’t completely
disappointed.”
Taking 5 tons of equipment, the
expedition left New York on April 10
and departed from Moscow May 3 to
establish a base of operations at
Kust&nl, 325 miles east of Abkulak,
but west of the Ural Mountains. For
three weeks the expedition prepared
for the eclipse, building concrete bases
for apparatus and setting It up.
Dr. McNally hoped to duplicate the
feat of 1932, when outsandlng pic
tures of the eclipse were taken at
Fryeburg, Me.
"We did get some accurate deter
minations of the second and third
contacts with a special electrometer
which we carried,” Dr. McNally said.
"The results have not been fully
determined, however.”
Dr. McNally led the Maine expedi
tion four years ago. His group ob
tained valuable experience In rapid
photography during the brief period
of darkness and planned to bring this
experience to bear in this year’s
eclipse had conditions been normal.

Grandson Is Picking Up
Lots of New Words
in Traffic.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 20.—Cele
brating his 5th birthday anniversary
the other day, my small grandson and
namesake met another gentleman of
like age, who
bragged that his
nurse brought
him to the party
In » car.
"Can your
Nana drive a
car?" Inquired
the guest.
“No," answered
m y descendant,
“but I'm going to
teach her. All
you do is start off
and keep going
till you have to
stop, and then
you say, ‘Damn
those red lights.’"
It would appear that Cobby has
