Well Played Five Set Match Winner
20 Meet Harold II. HsckctS for Title.
The final round OF the New YORK State cham
pionship lawn tennis tournament was played
yesterday nj Travers Island. two Of the MEM
bers OF the Kings County l.. T.. c. struggling
to meet Harold II. Hackett Of the West Side
7. e. In the challenge round. Frederick G..
Anderson. a veteran at the game. played
against Herbert T.. Westfall. comparatively
a newcomer. There probably was small
expectation that Anderson would be beaten.
He is so much the older and calmer player
that IL was figured that he would be able TO
defeat Westfall on headwork. IL in no other
way. The result therefore was in n way a
surprise. After a hard FIVE set match West
fall carried Of the honors, 90, rs. O,
6-9, 8-3.
Looking back. those who noticed the ease
with which Westfall defeated Nathaniel W.
Niles Of Harvard in the semi finals after the
Cambridge man had put out Henry VI. Mol
lenhauer there were some who had sn idea
that Westfall would make good Mollen-
h8uer IL also a Kings County man and he
is rated as a better player than Westfall on
the club courts. However, in meeting Ander-
son yesterday the younger player steeled him
self against being Influenced by comment
on his play and thus was able TO hold ont
against being ratified. a fate that has spoiled
the chances of younger players hitherto,

remarkable because he lost the first set to
Anderson after a good fight by 6-i. The
second set was battled for even harder and
went to 5 all before Westfall's hard driving
made an impression and he carried of the
next two games and the set. lie was hav-
ing harder work to hold Anderson merely
than Anderson had in gaining points. Those
who we're of the Anderson contingent we're
sure that they had made the right choice
when the former Canadian champion fairly
ran away from his younger rival in the third
act. The score of this was 6-i. a very COM
plete reversal of the issue in the other sets.
Westiall was simply utplay yea at this Stage.
Anderson has rarely played better tennis
than he showed in the third set yesterday.
and those who admired and 'applauded his
gaining OF points had not the slightest idea
that he could he beaten.
In the next two sets. however. IL WIS simply
an illust ration of the truth Of the saving
that youth will he served. Wcstfall Wa
everywhere on the courts and the hard driN-
ing for which he has become known had i-
effect. Anderson played his usual drlNln:
game for length, but he could not hold tie
younger hlngs county player from The res.
Westfall pounded the balls about in the most
vigorous style and eventually had Amber
son very tired. Five sets made a long route
for the older man TO 40. and the more he
showed the effect the more brilliant dUI est
falls tennis become. When the fourth set
went to Nestfall there VAS still u slight IDEA
that anderson might pull himself together
for the fifth. The first two or three games
