Game Reports.
There was even bigger attendance
than usual at the Casino courts today,
Los Angeles, Riverside and Pasadena
sending large contingents OF spectators on
account of the fact that they are repre-
sented in the tournament. The defeat of
Frank Garter by A. Q. Twiss in the all
comer's singles has been the sensation of
the day, but the Carriers may yet capture
the event, for R. P. Carter, by virtue Of
having won it last year, is to meet the
victor of this weeks contest.
The gentlemen's doubles resulted, as
was anticipated, in victory for the Car
ter team, though 1t was dearly bought,
for Barnes an 1,ihindsay did some warm
work in the last round. Continuing the
score from the point at which yesterdays
report ended, the results we're as follows:
F. and R. p. Carter beat Kinney and
Harrison 60, 6.1; Barnes and Lindsay
beat Ellis and Cosby 6.3, GA; Frank and
r. P. Carter beat Barnes and Lindsay
by 6,2, 6 4, 63, and won the event.
The ladies' doubles was also productive
OF some very good playing, as is attested
by the following results Miss Shoemaker
and Miss English beat Miss Gorham and
Miss G. Gi.liland beat Miss Wilkes and
Miss Gilliland 6.3, 65; Mrs. Waring
and Miss G.. Gilliland beat Miss Shoe
maker and Miss English by 63, 6.5, and
won the event.
The all-comers' singles is now being
played, and is the event of the week,
for, in addition to the importance of the
contest, very handsome prize, consist
ing OF silver shaving cup and brush, is
to be awarded to the victor. 1t is impos-
sible to give the scoring today, as there
is no wire communication with the
grounds, but the following are the results
of the first round Lockwood beat Barnes
by default; Woodhouse beat BowriDg;
