She played Mrs. Wallach 10 a stand
still. forcing the latter's weaknesses
from beginning TO end, and never losing
sight of the main point. Mrs. Wallach
is very weak on the back hand and Miss
Sears worked away at this persistency.
To handle 1t, Mrs. wallach was obliged
10 run around the ball. and the sustained
effort to do this was too much for her.
Miss Sears. as well as her opponent. re-
lied entirely on the ground stroke, there
being but two or three volleys in the
whole match, and she worked the corners
with remarkable accuracy. Overhead she
was safe in what little she was called
upon to do, and her main reliance was
straight-forehead driving. from the
ground, almost always with the corner as
the objective point
In the first set Mrs. Wallach made her
best stand. and In standing out. met with
quite a bit of success Miss Sears at

not vary her attack until near the end
OF the set, and then by shooting them
over 10 the other alley got her opponent
running.
