AT FOREST HILLS.

Mrs. Wills-Moody, who delighted all with whom she came in contact when visiting Hong Kong less than a year ago, has incurred the displeasure of the United States Lawn Tennis Association by not defending her American National title at Forest Hills,

She wins the title, and then finally decides not to defend it.

Notable Absentees From Chelsea Team

Alex Jackson Leaves

BRIGHT PROSPECTS THIS SEASON

CONSISTENCY IN AWAY MATCHES IS REQUIRED.

(By Charles Buchan).

There will be several notable absentees from the ranks of the Chelsea team this season. First and foremost Jackson, the Scot- tish international outside-right, is no longer a member of the Stam- ford Bridge brigade, while old servants in Irving, Townrow and Donald have joined Bristol Rovers and Weaver has been-transfer-
