WIN IN STRAIGHT SETS. Great Crowd Sees Americans Make Desperate Fight in Uphill Match. (Special to The Brening Work!) FOREST HILLS, aug. 14.-~Aus- tralia took 2 commanding lead over the United States in the International Davie Cug tennis matches here this afternoon when Anthony Wilding and Norman Brookes defeated Maurice McLoughlin and Tom Bund¢y-in the doudles in three straight acts, &—f, &—4 and 8—". ‘The ecore in matches now stands! Australians 2, Americans 1. If the Davis Cup is to remain here for un- other year Williams and McLoughlin must win thelr matches to-morrow against Brookes and Wilding, a feat that now seems to be almost impos- sible. ‘The defenders lost the doubles match use of Bundy's great weakness ihe little Californian was not of in- ternational calibre and was a targot and Brookes from frat ‘te last. ‘The defeat was especially disap- pointing to the 13,000 tennis fans, for almost all fejt the Cup Committee made a gravé mistake in not playing Behr instead of Bundy as McLough- Mo's partner.

After the International match Dean Mathey and George Church, former Princeton champion, entertained the record gallery in an exhibition match against Stanley oust and Alfred Dunlop, the Australian reserve play- ors. A wind that chased the sun behind threatening clouds didn't promise favorable weatber conditions here this afternoon for the second day's play between Australia and the United States for the Davis Tennis Cup. A stiff breeze made things do- Ngbtfully agreeable for spectators, and the Australians, who dread the heat, but ominous looking signs io the eastern sky gave a warning of a poasible interruption to the Interna- (Continued on Sporting Page.) —_—_—_—_—_—_ THE WORLD'S GUIDE TO MAROONED AMERICANS The New York World's list of ar of two age, er may be and’e branch eWices, AM BEATS HIGHLANDERS, | Stallings’s ” Pennant HIGHLANDERS, a. | Drive Tesreau Out of Box a in Fifth Innin, -1 0 3 0 0 ne: -O 10 21 «0 alee -2 tb 4 89 0 GIANTS. | Mullen, 1b. -2 2 1 0 R.
