The famous Call- fornia Comet, holding the court with his old partner, Thomas C. Bundy, led off with a splendidly won victory in the national lawn tennis cham- pionship doubiés tournament on the turf of the Longwood Cricket Club. McLoughlin apd Bundy, as the win- ners of the Pacific Coast champion- ship, defeated Willis E. Davis and Van Dyke Johns, two young Pacific Coast stars who gained the Western sectional titles. The veterans defeated their rivals in four sets, scored at 6—4, 9—7, 4-6, 6—4. Watson M, Washburn and Richard Norris Williams 2d, the New England champions, won the other math, which ushered in ‘xe first of the doubles championships to be decided among qualified sectional winners in this country, The team work ind amoothness of concerted action on tho part of Washburn and Williams ac- counted for the overthrow of Ichiy: Kumagae and Harold A. Throc! morton, Middle States champions, a tite which they gained at Orange, N. J. The score was 6—4, 3-6, 6—1, 8. The playing of McLoughlin and Bundy was the same old systematic partnership, the Comet executing the spectacular shots and Bundy fill- ing up the holes by his steadiness. McLoughlin was in far better fort than he displayed at Newport week. He covered the court fast making recoveries that were dup! cations of the ones that made him | ¢, famous. He brought off many of his mous smashing placements, His volleying was also good as he worked with great speed and shot the ball deeply into the opposite court. The match between the two pairs trom California was easily the feat- ure of the day, and it was so closely fought that the respective points totals were 150 for McLoughlin and Bundy to 140 for Davis and Jobns. In the second set, which Davis and Johus lost at 9—T,’ they had 53 points to 48 for their opponents, Twelve of the forty-six games of the match went to deuce points. Washburn and Williams wi it played th great brilllancy, On the oppo- ide of the net Kumagae, the anese, thrilled the croWd by his astonishing recoveries. He was quick in anticipation, often outguessing Williams, who ‘seemed to take de- light in giving the Japanese chasers to recover, Williams was unsteady at times and the majority of errors on his side were charged to him. The point totals were 186 to 126 for this match, Norman E.
