EASTBOURNE, England, June 18. —America lost, three matches to two, in the threeday international tennis competition played against Great Brit- ain. The series of six matches was decided today by the final singles, in which J. B. Gilbert of Engiand de- feated Ray Casey of San Krancisco, 917, 9—7, 6—3. John Hennessy of Indianapolis earlier defeated W. D. Wheatley, 7—5, 6—2, 46, 5. Casey and Hennessy were beaten in the doubles yesterday by Godfree and Wheatley, 4—6, 6—4, 11—9, 4—6, 6—3. The American pair lost largely through errors on Hennessy's part. Throughout the match he was over- anxious to make kills, which resulted in frequent hits into the net and outside the court. The Americans played more bril- liantly than did the Englishmen, but Godfree and Wheatley hung on with tenacity, took advantage Of every error and concentrated on Hennessy. Casey was the star of the match. He plaved a dazzling game. In the critical games of both the third and the last sets the Britishers broke through Henne: service by concentrating their returns on him and waiting for him to make one of his frequent net shots from midcourt.

The other cords should then be tied to the ridge pole, using simple bowknots. take down the two rear corners. making sure that the bottom edge is fully stretched.

Tunney, wants to t Dempsey and can duce the champion to meet him, has every right to clinch turning a deaf ear td he meet any one, else. Then, of course, should he defeat the chumplon and take over the title his status would change and he would be called upon to listen to the claims of all challengers, Wills among others. Tunney's manager is busy picking up easxy matches for his man. That is all right, t00. As for Dempsey. Tun- ney probably would rather fight him a vear from now than, say, next Sep. tember. Just now there is a lot of easy monev in sight for the con- queror of Gibbons and besides he is picking up weight. When he is heavier he will gain more supporters of his standing as a rival of Dempsey’s than he now has. Tunney figures that by the time an other 12 months have passed he will bave brought his fighting weight up to 189 pounds, which he regards as the’ limit of his possibilities.
