result of a recent mishap to my shoulder In trying to save the ahouidcr I was throwing too big a strain on my right leg I first felt the injury to my shoulder in my semifinal match against Alice Marble and Dr Dunning bad to give me special osteopathic treatment before I could move Hurt In Practice I aggravated this injury while practicing with Bill Tilden III yesterday For a moment I thought I would not be able to play today but the doctor bandaged my leg and I felt able to go on the court What artually happened was this: When the match stood at 4-4 in the first set and 40-30 with Mrs Moody serving I tried to reach a very fine passing shot on my right leg I felt as though something had torn Mrs Wightman (Mrs Hazel Hotchkiss Wightman) asked me if I wanted to change the bandage but 1 declined and continued playing although 1 was in very great pain Ta Nail July 9 I am sorry I could not play better but the pain was excruciating Before the match despite my bandage I felt full of confidence but I never thought the result was a foregone conclusion I am going home aboard the Georgic on July 9 and will be playing in the championships at Forest Hills where I hope again to meet Mrs Moody If I don't beat her I hope at all events to give ber a belter game than this afternoon has the most doubles 24 and Doc Richmond of the Oackera and i Majrfiii 2b Hhm Skinny Graham of the

she said but please don't rub that in" Mrs Wightman close friend of both girls thought it was shame that everybody seems to be blaming Mrs Moody for finishing Miss Jacohs off so quickly" "I think that is unfair" she continued waa the only thing to do under the circ*mstances" Remember 1933 Incident Many in the crowd however recalled the now historic meeting between the two Helens in the 1933 American championships at Forest Hills On that occasion Miss Jacobs offered to stop play when Mrs Moody obviously was in distress Mrs Moody suffering from a back injury subsequently defaulted with the score 3-0 against her in the third the only time in 12 matches that Miss Jacobs ever beat her On one other thing all unbiased critics that Mrs Moody in superlative form had never played 1 first had hurt it in her semifinal round match with Alice Marble on Thursday After undergoing treat-men that night she injured it again in practice yesterday Dr Dunning explained tha Injury was the indirect result of the shoulder injury Miss Jacobs suffered some weeks ago forcing her to withdraw from the Wightman Cup matches and lending to her fainting apell in tha Wimbldeon Clubhouse just before her oeroud round match Dr Dunning said thaf Miss Jacobs favoring her injured shoulder had placed undue strain on her ankle The argumentative aftermath of the nintch between the two Helens still was

the game No Other Choice There was no other choice for me If the game was to have been stopped by request it would have had to be made to the umpire according to the rules snd obviously I was not the one who could have made the request I did not know whether Miss Jacobs would make the request or not It was up to her to make the choire She chose to remain A similar incident happened several years
