She waaaocuaed then of quitting, of depriving Miss Jacobs of a chanoe for a clean-cut, undisputed victory. Today, however, she gave a con clusive rebuff to any one who ever questioned her fighting heart. Almost as though she willed It, Mrs. Moody again gave her fighting adversary a three game advantage In the third set, the same advantage Miss Jacobs bad enjoyed at Forest HUls. She even spotted Miss Jacobs a 8-2 lead later In the set and once, In the ninth game, had match point staring her In the face.

"X Just couldn't get that match point.1 Also tuckered out but In imich better shape than her rival, Mrs. Moody said: "Helen played gloriously. I never expected to win." One linesman vouched for the fact that Mine Jacobs played the last three games In a virtual daze. "We had to tell her It was her service in the final game, he arid 'What a wonderful fighter she la." Had she been fresh. Miss Jacobs undoubtedly would have won the match In the ninth game of the final set when she went to the net for what appeared to be simple cllt or Mrs. Moody's weab lob. But, at mntch point, Mlas Jacobs seemed unable to lift her racquet high enough for the decisive stroke and hit futllely In stead Into the net. Later with the count at 8-8, MUs Jacobs needed only one point to break Mrs. Moody's service and what might have been a decisive 6-8 lead, but once more ehe drove Into the net. She never had another chance as Mrs. Moody poured terrific drives Into the back corners. The entire picture of the match in retrospect was of Mrs. Moody hitting out bravely, clipping the sidelines ' snd controlling play throughout On the other aide of the net Miss Jacobs shuttled endlessly across the base line, getting her racquet on whet seemed to be Impossible drives, never conceding a point until she hsd given every ounce of effort she could mus ter.
