BY HENRY M’LEMORE Oillied Pr*i* Staff Cnrrr*oondent FOREST HILLS, N. Y., Aug. 20.—Play in the forty-fourth annual women's national tennis singles championship today was devoted to “catching up."

Today’s schedule calls for Mrs. Marion Z. Jessup of Wilmington, Del., to oppose Mrs. D. C. Shepherd-Barron of Great Britain. Mrs. Sarah Palfrey of Boston, to meet Miss Phyllis Nudford of Great Britain and Miss Betty Nuthall, Britisher and defending champion, to engage Miss Josephine Cruickshank of California.

Z* * j -*• to j[Sales Leadership Four people have purchased the Buick Eight to every one buyer of any other of the thirteen eights in Buick’s price range during the twelve mouths since its introduction. This four-to-one preference —in days when America is scrutinizing values more closely than ever before fully confirms the value leadership of The Eight as Buick Builds It. It is this outstanding value which causes 89 per cent of all Buick owners to buy Buicks again and again. * Buick has sldfour times as many eights as the next most popular eight in its field, August 1,1950, through July, 1951, according to official figures by R.

The Jessup-Shepherd Barron match has but one set to go, as two sets were completed before Wednesday’s rain. Mrs. Jessup won the opening chapter 8-6, and dropped the second 0-6. Today's winners will join Mrs. Helen Wills Moody, Miss Helen Jacobs, Miss Dorothy Weisel, all of Caifornia, and Mrs. Eileen Bennett Whittingstall of Great Britain in the quarter-final round. The championship round will be played on Sunday. It is just as well for Great Britain that Wednesday’s storm hit when it did. For until its arrival America, or rather California, was spreading death and destruction in the ranks of the British favorites. Miss Dorothy Round, who bowed to Miss Weisel, was seeded No. 3 in the overseas delegation, while Mrs. J. P. Pittman, who bowed to Mrs. Harper was seeded No. 7. The third British star to fall by the wayside was Miss Joan Ridley, seeded No. 6. Miss Ridley was unfortunate enough to meet Mrs. Moody. The champion of them all won 6-3 and 6-0.
