I, Aug. 17—The new name on the no Bowl for the an- nual invitation tennis les tour- nament was assured today when R. Morris Williams. 2nd, of Philadelphia, the former national champion, who won last year's competition here, was climinated by the sweepine strokes of Clarence J. Griffin of San Francisco. To some extent the downfall of Wil- liams was accounted for by a weak ankle, which compelled him to play a back-court game. In this style of play alone he was unable to meet the ac- curate drives of the versatile Califor- nlan who was able to place the ball just where Wiiliams, unable to move Tapidly, could not réach it. Harold A. Throckmorton, schoolboy champior N.'J., who in the earli of the tournament eli- minated William J. Clothier, former national champion, and H. Mikami, the Japanese plaver, added to his laurels today by defeating N. W. Niles of Bos- ton. The match was the longest of the day, the flve sets taking up four hours In the semi-finals Throckmorton has to meet William M. Johnson. the na- tional title holder, while Grifin will ) against 1.
