r, v.o- the uncertainty of his volleJs
ND sr,ashes that caused Maurice Z.
Mclaughlin, the playing through tito
,ol6er from the Pacific Coast, to become
..o centre Of interest yesterday upon the
..s,rption Of the competitions in the
,..,. York state lawn tennis champion
mi, on the courts Of the Crescent AtE'
r,,,c Club at Bay Ridge, In both TIE
.,,,les and doubles the net was a COM
ant source Of apr aren't irritation 10 the
r.ualI, brilliant player. Mclaughlin did
rot exhibit his propensity to be trl1e
n range against Richard II. Paifner IN
.ha' Singles. as the lattr played the ball
-,~bt into The champions hands, GLOWING
lin, 20 win by the smothering score OF
Il 20 Thomas c. Bundy, the othcr

r,b,s match courled the Pacific Coast pair
With RAYMOND Z. Little and Gustave /.
.,o,chard. tl,e national champions and IT
e more than likely that the latter VII
default. as the Same pairs VIII meet AT
Hovport for The national title.
The playing of Mclaughlin and Bunny
Was essily the star feature OF day which
vas filed with spirited racquet work. II
held the main stretch Of turf. Hackett
leading of with the service. His slow
floating ball for the time puzzled the
California players, so that the old ma
,ioraI champion scored his game. Then
NcI,ou-hlu. Williams and Bundy followed
IN the order named for the service. Bundy
was going Ike lightning, taking his game
AZ love. while, altogether, McLoughiin
md Ruudv reeled Of four games In order
before Hackett and Williams checked
them. There were sizzling rallies at this
stage. Bundy and Hackett each playing
wonderful crossing shots for the alleys
NcIoushiin was welding his racquet like
battleaxc at the net but the ball was
a. -oing oyci Because Of general az
.cs .vaness IN. Pacisc Coast men finally
Prevailed. taking the set at 6--4, with the
POINTS at 20 TO 90.
Vltl very enc OF the men on uptoe
the second set opened with three deuce
games. of which Hackett and Williams
cot two. Mclaughlin brought of SEN
sstlonal get in the first game that set the
crowd aUplauGing. But he showed his
rl..rtaiuty by making three nets OF
si,s,el, returns At the beginning Of the
se..o1i Eante. uackett and Williams man
s-..l 20 take the lead al 80 on games
sa Ills set That was the last, however,
..r Guudv got 20 work at his crossing
s,ots. scoring four games and the match
al &C..
in br.nging the singles level 70 the last
eight survivors out Of the original neIa
Of eighty aspirants for the title two up
,ets were marked on the card. The hrst
was the defeat Of Frederick {. Imam
former holder OF the championship. VINO
WELDED up his place 70 Lyle +. Mahan AZ
- IS. Mahan was having one OF his
good DAYS lie placed surely and stead
uy always covering court well, despite
The fact That Inmar had him running
miles and putting Ike porpoise al uhle".
Thu other reversa! was the defeat OF
Wallace (. Johnson. the former INTERIOR
lsgste champion Of the University OF
psprsvlvania. who fell before the steady
Dst attack Of .'harles VI. Bull, Jr., at ID
Go. Ct As Johnson said after the
match. 1T seemed to me that Bun was
always sitting on the net. Every time
hit the ball he spread himself out. and II
vas impossible 10 pass him, while he
PLAYED me 10 d standstill in no time at
