Y., Aug. 26.—Play in the annual national singles tennis championship tournament opened here today on the turf courts of the West Side Club with a record-breaking match between two youthful racquet wielders, Harold Throckmorton of Elizabeth, N. J., and Harold L. Taylor of New York. Throckmorton, who has passed out of his teens by just a year defeated his 17-year-old opponent in a gruelling five-set matcn which re- quired more than three hours to de- cide by scores of 6-8, 6-2, 11-9, 7-9, 13-11, making a total of 81 games playedA This supplants the national singles championship tournament rec- ord of eighty games made by Suffern Taylor and Palmer Presby, who, in the tournament of 1888 at Newport went 80 games. The match here this afternoon threatened an upset several times, for Taylor more than once was within a stroke or two of winning only to be outgamed by Throckmorton. The lat-- ter, who was one of the second rank- ing ten in 1916 showed his lack of practice early in the match and did not get his strokes working well un- til the contest was well into the third set. Taylor played remarkable tennis for so youthful an entrant and re- peated fore-court rallies in which the players battled with dut a few feet intervening across the net brought rounds of applause from the galleries. Both victor and vanquished tired rap- idly under the strain toward the end of play and Throckmorton's greater gameness and endurance were the winning factors. The entire first round and a por- tion of the second was completed with the favorites in the various quarters cf the draw coming through safely although the afternoon contests were featured both on the grandstand and outer courts by a number of matches contained deuce sets, some of which went into double figures. 'The two Japanese entrants, Ichiyia Kumagae and Saiichiro Kashio, won their matches without being extended to the limit of their court resonrceful- ness. Kashio defeated Fred son, one of the youthful the metropolitan district, & Kumagae disposed of Walter L. a tournament player of considerable ability, at 6-0, 6-4, 6-0. Kumagae's speed and placing was entirely too much for Pate, while Kashio's steadi- ness and backhand play proved the undoing of Anders Saergeant Alex Gravem, Pacific coast intrcollegiate champion, fell before the greater ex- h and power of Lyle E. at 6-1,'6-3, 6- M. Kelleher of Seat- Anderson, a broth- at0-6, 6-4, 6-4, two promineant Chicago pla; Raiph H. Burdick and Walter T. s, advanced by easy victories over Herbert L. Bowman and E. B. Cum- il respectively. R. Lindley Mur- winner of the 1917 patrio! tour- nament, also came thrcugl: the first round without trouble, defeating Jack New York Lieutenant H. G. tle defeated J. of Kashio's vict The g v Dudley of Washington with the lo:s of but one game in three sets, Mur- however, showed nis lack of practlce and was both wild and er- ratic but his. speed was -entirely too great for Dudley. E Czintz | of Atlanta, soutnern junior champion, was_eliminated by A. H. (hanln in traight sets, while A. Montreal, the only Carldl.m en(ran!, worked his way into the third round at the expense of J. S. O'Boyle at §-1, 6-3, 6-4, A number of players also moved forward by default, including W. T. Tilden, Jr., of Philadelphin, national doubles champion with Vincent Rich- ards; his partner, Richards, the vres- ent sensation among the' younger set of players; Beals ‘Wright. former internationalist and ch’lmpwn and E. C. Simmons of the California Tennis Association, Many of the players appeared at the club house in army or navy dni- torms and the play generally showed that the great majority of the more prominent of the tournament experts were short of practice. This deficien- cy was so widespread that it did not make the matches in fany cases one- sided and the gallery, which was larger than at the opening day during the past few years of the tournament, was given an opportunity to follow exciting matches on many courts. Weather conditiong were hard on the piayers, the temperature baing high and the atmosphere very humid.

We are even dis- couraging Chicagoans from making the trip to Boston.” The suzgestion of the national com- mission that players donate ten per cent of their share of the receipts to war charities met with prompt action with members of the Chicago club, champions of the National League, who unanimously voted to comply with the sugeestion, President Johnson said he would donate the $250 alloted him by the commission for his personal expenses to thé charity fund.

SPORTING NOTES. Julian S. Myrick, vice president of the U. S. N. L. A, has issued an appeal to all tennis clubs to send their alls, nets and racquets tc Paul . Williams, No. 20 Broad street, New York city, so that the game can be enjoyed by the men in the service. Over a hundred courts have been built in the various cantonments qnd about three times as many will built. Ask the fellows in khaki to name the greatest fellow in baseball they will shout the name of Clark Griffith. Griff with his bat and ball fund, has done more than any one else in balldom to hearten up tke ball loving soidier. and Many close followers of sports be- lieve that they will have the greatest boom in their history after the war owing to the general participation in sport of men in the service.
