Rut when Helen Wilis Is defeat ed it will bp the greatest upset that can hapepn on nny field of sport. At the ase of 22 she is so completely the mistress of her athletic art that she ha3 no com petition. And when there is a pic ture, of Mrs. May Sutton Bundy, past the age of forty, playing a very fine same In major tourna- ment competition, there are rea sons to speculate that the charm ing California miss will rule for nl least ten more years. I She has the came, the physical Attributes nnd the love of the game to qualify her to reign as the queen of the courts nt least until she reaches the middle thirties, when an athlete generally begins to fade. Rut the lady athletes in ten nis last longer than the men. Mlsa Wills has been playing championship tennis for eight years and yet she has steadily Im proved her game. Rene Lacost observing her as she was winning the recent French and British championships, said that she had i vastly improved her game since nnt year. "There doesn't seem to be much ; nhout her game that can be im-j proved," he said. "Rut she keeps impressing you that she Is so much j better." Miss Mary K. Browne, one; of the best authorities in the i world, says "Helen is ohviously better every time I see her." This recognized improvement that sbo works in her game in lead-j Ing more and more of the critics to believe that the power of the Wills j game In its present form would nvercome the gkill of the Lenglen , game in its best day, but that Is a -mibiect of fruitless controversy. ! i ; s heiem lose, ? ; Lg -i Lr ..tT a rem. upjgt. . by an appendicectomy in Pari.

From p,-evloiM sho wines this Literary Digest Poll Gives, Hoover Lead in 42 Out of 48 States. Hoover Is leading In six of the ten states in the "Solid South" as more than 2.5UO.OOO returns from all of the lorty-eighl siateH are reported in The Literary Digest's huge national presidential poll which 1h published today. With the vote announced as not yet completed, Smith is carrying only Georgia. Louisiana, Missis sippi and South Carolina, while Hoover lias substantial margins over his rival In the democrutic strongholds of Florida, North Car olina, Texas and Virginia and sparing leads in Alabama and Ar-, kansas, which leads The Literary Digest classes as doubtful. The border states of Kentucky, Maryland, Oklahoma and Tennes see give the republican candidate a comfortable plurality. Of the total of 2.529.997 votes returned in this fifth week's tabu lations of The Literary I Ugest's poll. Hoover has 1.593.4:16 while Smith has 910.234. This gives a percentage of 63 for Hoover to 36 for Smith, which is almost the precise ratio of last week's re turns. Hoover at present shows n lend in this "straw poll In several of the states that are generally con sidered doubtful, os In Wisconsin, where he is ahead by 31,351 to 21, 841 ; In Nnrt h take t a. where he leads by 5.1S to 2.803; in Minne sota, where his ratio la 52.NS2 to 23.021; and In Montana, where he Is polling 6.750 to Smith's 3.152- The republican candidate Is leading in returns from all the F.astorn states from Maine to Hcieware-by ration of 2 to 1 and 3 lo 1 except in New York, where (hough hp has rr substantial bd In (hi slate as a whole, I lie New York Citv vote Is strongly favor 1 . ... able to the democratic side, show ing Smith with 1U,S22 to Hoov er's 93,974. An analysts of "how the same voters voted In 1924" offers the significant nhift that for the fititt time since thin " mint card election" was started Smith la polling more of his strength from voters who slate fiat (Ley voted democratic In the last presidential election than those who have changed from republican rauks, although the difference la rather slight. Previously he has had in bis col umn more 1924 republicans than 1924 democrats. In the South Hoover Is Indicated as obtaining tlia better part of his stipiKUt from democratic sources in the states where he shows a lead. In Individual polls of Chicago and Philadelphia, where the entire registered electorate is being poll- I ed. the same as In New York City. ! Hoover shows an advantage of 93.2S6 lo 67.H46 in the Illinois metropolis and 6K.594 to 47.K10 In Philadelphia. Against this Smith is shown polling more of hU strength from former republicans than from previous democrutic voters In both of these cities. "The poll establffthes a new rec ord this week," The Literary Di gest states, editorially, "with 2.529.-997 votes recorded, as against somewhat less than 2,000, om) when the poll of 1924 had reached the present Stage of de velopment. "With Hie present tabulation (he returns may be considered for the fit Ht time fairly representative of the country as a whole. The divi sion of the vote is slightly more favorable in Governor Smith than In the earlier tabulations. "The wide-spread breaking down of political fences, noted through out the previous reports, is even more evident In the present tabu bit Ion. It may be observed, however, that with fuller reports from the Southern states, there Is an Increasing switch of demo crats to Hoover, along with Mr. Smith's Increasing suffrage from former republicans, "For the first time In the poll. It will be noticed. Governor Smith draws more of his support from democrats of 1924 than from re- I publicans nf that year. Ho still has 334.931 of these 'switched votes, as against 233,555 former democrats who are now for Hoover. "The shift of former republicans. several authorities agree, means merely that democrats who voted for Coolidge In 1924 are now re turning to their home camp, but the fact remains, of course, that there has been a switch since 1924."
