A preliminary measurement of the ratio W + 1 Jet/W + 0 Jets in {ital p}{ital {anti p}} collisions at {radical}s = 1800 GeV is presented. A comparison to next-to-leading order QCD finds the theory to be well below the experimental ratio even after accounting for the systematic uncertainties of the measurement. In addition, a study of both the measured and theoretical ratios as a function of minimum jet transverse energy (E{sub T}) shows that the theoretical predictions are systematically lower than the data.
