Forest Hills. N. Y., Aug. 20. Mrs. Molla Bjurstcdt Mallory of New York today retained her title as wo men's tennis champion of the United States 1y defeating Miss Mary K. "Browne of Santa Monica, Cal., 4-6, 0-4, 6-2, in the final of the national tournament here. The victory of Mrs. Mallory gave her the title for the fifth time, a new record in American women's lawn icnnis. She first reached the peak in 1915, the year aftqr Miss Browne, then the champion, retired from tournament competition. .The Norse woman repeated her national tri umph in 1916, 1918 and 1920 and in 1917 won the national patriotic matches. ) An erratic lapse in Miss Browne's 1 play drove three balls out in the IjAlrd game of the final set, giving "the champion a lead of 2-1. Mrs. ). Mallory apparently solved the pe culiar spins of Miss Browne's soft strokes, thereafter increasing her M eeping speed and raced all over the court to victory. , Several 'thousand tennis fans were in the galleries when Mrs. Molla Bjurstcdt Mallory of New York de feated Miss Mary K. Browne of Santa Monica, Cal. Mrs. Mallory captured the first game on her own service, but lost the next three to Miss Browne. Both stroked the hall cautiously and the furious driving which marked the Norse woman's victory yesterday in the semi-finals was missing. In the fourth game Miss Browne's - midcourt balls drew Mrs. Mallory in from back court and she netted sev eral returns. Miss Browne took the first set, 6-4. WThe Pacific coast veteran puzzled J Airs. Mallory with a shifting pace, mixing easy chops with furious driv ing. She kept the title holder on the run with chop shots that barelv skimmed over the net. The crowd . cheered so en thusiastically that the referee cau tioned spectators against noise mak ing while play was in progress. ) The first set point score follows: ' Mrs, Mallory '. .4 2 4 6 4 2 7 1 4 2 36 4 Miss Browne 240814652 4 41 6 Miss Mallory captured the second set, 6-4. v Mrs. Mallory took the first game .
