Tilden may not be the best tennis player in the world, but he was good enough to triumph today over a field of 68 leading racquet stars of his own and three other natiogs. To make his victory in the annual invitation tournament at the Meadow Club all the more decisive, Tilden paired with Francis T. Hunter of New Rochelle, N. Y. to take the doubles trophy. In the finals today the lanky Phila- delphian mowed down youns George Lott of Chicago at 6—2. 7 6—: and achieved a second straight set victory, with Hunter, over the doughty Texans, Lewis N. White of Austin and Louis Thalheimer of Dal- las, The scores were 6—2, 6—3, 6—2. Strong foreign competition added zest to the tournament and glory to Tilden, the victor. French, Japanese and Spanish, be- ides Americans, were entered and all were eliminated, the two surviving Fre:chmen vanishing in the semi- final, en Tilden beat Brugnon, and Lott eliminated the great French star! Rene Lacoste, in a sensational upset. Despite the same remarkable play- |ing in his final match with Tilden, | Lott was no match for the man who |launched him on his career. He fought hard, with the remarkable agility and zeal for match play that makes him.one of the most spirited figures in tennis, but Tilden of today was a wizard of the court and proof 15ainst even the arrowy strokes of {the 20-year-old six-footer from Chi- | | " was the message young Lott sent home to Chicago as he left the court with a brave but disappointed smile. Once in his life—six months ago—he beat TILDEN DOUBLE WINNER IN SEABRIGHT TOURNEY Tilden, but since then the master has downed him with dispatch. Twice in the match Tilden souc hand his epponent a charity p two and twice Lott refused almost contemptuously. In some of his des- perate lunges from corner to corner {on the scent of Tilden's placements | he made marvelous returns, but the master's flawless play broke Lott's heart in the second set. There Lott made his rally, winning four games only to see the tide flowing uncontrol- labiy against him. Tilden's domination continued in the doubles match and he was the tower- | ing figure. Hunter had zipping ground strokes. White had whistling gerve ices. Thalheiner had brilliant "vol leys. Tilden had them all. White was the ruling figure on his side of the net, and the handsome nen- chalant youth from Texas was a favorite with the crowd, although his smashes lacked their usual bull eve accuracy. White has played ca the losing side against Tilden and Hunter twice in a week. He was paired with Richard N. Williams at Seabright and lost in the final. Their two tournament victories in succession on the heels of triumph in the English championships at Wimbledon puts Tilden and Hunter far in the lead for the doubles desig- nation in defense of the Davis Cup. While the singles probably will be ayed by Tilden and _Little Bill Jdhnston of California, Lott gained rating as one of the most promising young contenders by his work in beating Lacoste here. Eileen Bennet of England and Henry Cochet of France defeated Genevieve Fox of Southampton and Lott, 6—1, 6—1. in the final round of the mixed doubles. it to nt or BUCS AGAIN ALONE IN SECOND POSITION | By the Associated Pre | ST LOUIS.
