LARNED AND LEROY
IN TENNIS CHAMPIONSHIP

NEWPORT, r. l.. August 28.-The strug-
gle for all-comers' national lawn tennis
championship rests between William A.
Larned and Robert Leroy. The veteran of
many tournaments and twice holder of the
title ably sustained his position yesterday
in the semi-final round against Clarence
Hobart, whom he overwhelmingly defeated
by the straight set score GO. GO and
6-1.
The surprise of this round was the splen-
did stamina displayed by Leroy. the inter-
collegiate champion who with Henry II:
Mollenhauer four times within a stroke OF
winning the match, fought him or and
outplayed him until Mollenhauer was ex-
hausted and in such a state of collapse tnat
he wished to default the final and deciding
set This last set proved walkover for
Leroy, whose complete score was ". "a.
SL6 and Glove. At the close OF the fourtn
set Mol!enhauer suffered from cramps IN
his racquet arm and his legs. 1t was with
difficulty that he got around the court. tor
the match was hotly contested for fully
three hours of play.
William ]. Clothier yesterday formally
registered his default Of the champion
ship because Of the injury to his right leg:
Clothier went to Boston Monday night ana
was examined by specialist, and was
told that any athletic competition might
