PLAY GF YOUTH DEFEATS WILLIAMS AND WASHBURN Match, Though Decided in Straight Se?s, Is Bril- liant Affair, First Two Taking 46 Games for Decision. OSTON, August 27.—National champions at tennis in five classes were decided on the courts of the Longwood Cricket Club B today. Outstanding in importance and in the actual play was the match in which William T. Tilden, 2d, world’s singles titlist, and Vincent Richards little more than a boy, regained the national doubles crown. Largely ‘through the brillancy of Rchards they administered the hrs'l_ defeat ;)f the season to the eastern doubles champions, R. Norris Williams, 2d. and W. M. Washburn, regarded as America’s probable defenders in doubles in the Davis Cup match with Japan. The stralgh't set scores, | 13-11; 12-10, 6-1, constituted the greatest number of games in three sets in the history of the event. Tilden paired with a boy was able 1o do more than Tilden paired with the national woman's champion, Mrs. Molla Bjurstedt Mallory.

O. Anderson of Australasia by scores of 3—6, 7—5, 2—6, 6—2, 6—1 on the courts of the Casino here today. ) & This victory, combined with the two singles matches won by Ku- magae and Zenzo Shimidzu on Thursday, gave them the margin of one match necessary for a place in the challenge round against the United States team at Forest Hills next month. Later, however, Shimidzu de- feated J. B. Hawkes, 4—6, 6—3, 62, 6—2. The Antipodeans’ only victory was in - } lme doubles. EWPORT, R. I, August 27.—The stoical control of Ichiya Kumagae The match between Kumagae and Anderson followed the trend of all the singles. Kumagae was steadiness pe! sonified, sacrificing both brillianc and speed for control and direction in his returns. He drove the ball back continually to the tall depending most of the time for an er ror by Anderson to give him the point. While the volleys were protracted there were but few brilliant spots in the play, and these were made DOS- sible almost entirely by Anderson’s efforts at passing and smashing. At such moments Kumagae would un- limber his speed both with foot and racquet, and there would ensue a few seconds of really brilliant play. For the most part, however, the playing was slow and deliberate, and the match required two hours and five minutes before a decision was reached. M. Gibbons Would Fight Every Day for a Month ST.
