Forest Hills, Aug. 22. The results of today matches were in the nature nf an areump.nr, for marriage. Mrs. Eileen Bennet Whittingstall took a hard fought contest from Miss Betty Nuthall by a score of 6-2, 3-6.

6-4, while M-rr. Helen Wills Moody defeated Miss Phillys Mudford, 6-2, 6-4, after rather a nervous start. Miss Mudford came back in the second set and, for a player with little except a forehand drive and a stout heart, gave the queen of the courts considerable exercise. The final will pit against each other two young matrons who not only were the best tennis players in this tourri. ment, but who are perhaps the best looking oair in the (tame.

To be a bit classical, one might say it will be a contest between Juno and Venus, and if the lovely Britain plays her game against the statuesque A erican, the spectators are likely to get an afternoon of thrills. Mrs. Moody will be in quest of her seventh singles championship and on the trail of Mrs. Molla Mal-lory. the only woman to win eight national titles.

Miss Nuthall did not relinquish her title, won last year, of champion of the United States, without a struggle. The match betwen the sturdy, likeable, young Briton and Mrs. Whittingstall was ot quite as exciting as thestruegle between the latter and Helen Jacobs but struggles such as that rarely are seen on any tennis court, Mrs. Whittingstall is a fine, fr3e hitter, ith a corking serve and wide variety of strokes. Miss Nuthall, her doubles nartner, managed to keep her from the net, which Miss Jacobs failed to do but made too many errors in the first set to win it.

She took tho second set, varyin- the depth of her strokes and occasionally to the herself. Then she took the first gume of the final set, but lost the next two. The breaks came in the fourth game and tenth. The fourth game, which would have put Miss Nuthall on even terms again, went repeatedly to deduce. Finally, Miss Nuthall double-faulted and then Mrs.

Whittingstall took the deciding point with a beautiful placement. With the score -4-1 against her, Miss Nuthall rallied and took three names out of the next four. In the final game, she ran the score to 40-0, on her score, and hit the top of the net with a ball which might have fallen either way. It wavered and fell back into her court. Mrs.

Whittingstall then ran the score to deuce, and had the vantage point three times, only to have her game little opponent fight her off. The fourth time was too much ana Betty Nuthall ran forward to shake hands wiUi the victor. Against Miss Mudford. Mrs. Wills ran.

off the first five games in jig time. Miss Mudford took the next two games and then Mrs. Moody took the set). In the second set, Mrs. Moody was somewhat harder pressed.

Miss Mudford was hitting with more confidence and using with advantage soft shots which just cleared the net She finally worked the score to 4-4. but at that point Mrs. Moody put on bit more effort and wound up the day's proceedings. Permitting Miss Mudford onlv three points in the last two games. Helen Wills Moody plays with so little apparent effort and such efficiency that she always ap-nears to be working no harder than is absolutely necessarv.

In spite of tne great tennis Mrs. Whittingstall has been playing, Mrs. Moody is a strong favorite to regain the title she so often has held. (Copyright. 1931.) Jess Sweetser Wins Cape Cod Open Title By One Stroke Edge Chatham, Aug.

Saratoga Springs, N. Aug. 22 (AP.) The silks of the Whitney cla.i flew high today as Mrs. Payne Whitney's Twenty Grand scored a galloping victory in the ancient Travers and C. V.

Whitney's Top Flight again asserted her claim to the championship. Twenty Grand, making her first start since being dethroned as the three-year-old titleholder by Mate in the Arlington classic, convinced a crowd of nearly 30,000 that he is again the Twenty Grand of the early-season. The winner the Wood memorial, the Kentucky derby, the Belmont and Dwyer slakes completely outc'assed four capable rivals in earning $33,000 mul boosting his total earnings to $211,575. Mrs. Whitney's Gleentrec Stable; never before had finished on top in the 62 runnings of the Travers but tlv; famous colors dominated the race today.

St. Brklcaux. a stablemate of Twenty Grand, finished second, a length and a half back of his illustrious stablemate and lour lengths 111 front of Mrs. Kathenne E. Hilt's Sun Meadow.

The Beiair stud's Sir Ashley and Mrs. Jonn D. Hertzs Risque, the only i illy in the race, were completely outc asscd. Linus (Pony) McAtee, riding Twenty Grand in place of the injure i Charlie Kuitsincer, sent the big bay son of St. Germans over the mile and a quarter in the fairly good t.mc ot 2A)i i-j.

tin: victory was miici more of a financial itsset to Mrs Whitney than to the large crowd as Twenty Grand was held at the pim-hi'oiUve edds ot 1 to 8 w.th Jew-takers. St. Bridtaux aso picked up $4000 for running second. Top Flight Had an easy task winning tne Spinaway ami $8400 lrom a smart band fillies, it was the fmirtn victory in as many starts for the of Dis Done, which threaten qx in the footsteps the groat Whitney filly, Hegrel. The Whitney Turf Miss was mean at the gate and fina ly was pliici-d on the outside but she broke fiying ai.d never once left the result 111 doubt.
