Mclaughlin Must Battle
DOuSt in Final Round
Captain of Australians Davis
Cup Team Beats the
German Star.
WINS IN STRAIGHT SETS
American Player Now a Strong
Favorite to Earn the Lawn
Tennis Championship
of All England.

Wimbledon, England. July STANLEY y.
Doust, captain of the Australian Davis
Cup team, defeated oscar Kreutzer, the
German champion, in the semi-fnal round
of the all-England lawn tennis cham
pionship tournament on the turf courts
here to-day The victory came in straight
sets and with unlocked for ease at 6-3.
So 6-3.
The German had been regarded as the
contender who would meet Maurice f..
Mclaughlin. the American title holder in
the final round of the tournament The
willy Doust however, had carefully meas
ured the play of Kreutzer, with the result
that he never allowed the German to
start the kind of play at which he shines.
Eventually this somewhat stirred the
wrath of Kreutzer and when he lost his
temper Doust had plain sailing.
As a result Doust will face Mclaughlin
in the final round to decide which Is 10
meet Anthony +. Wilding. the famous
Australian. who holds the all-England
championship
In the preliminary series Of the Davis
Cup matches in New York Mclaughlin
defeated Doust in straight sets at q
ca. So. The match will be played either
tomorrow or Thursday.
Doust. playing a steady game, had little
difficulty in winning the first two sets
from the German lefthander. The Aus
tralian had learned few lessons while
in America, and he put them to good use
He was far quicker than Kreutzer and
flashed all over the court for remarkable
gets. while he came up to the net with
wonderful alacrity. and swept the Ger
man before him by the rapidly Of his
assault
Throughout the match II was the uni
form custom OF Doust 10 follow all his re-
turns 10 the net in the American fashion
and he scored practically all his points
by splendid placing and crossing shots AZ
sharp angles.
In the second set Kreutzer gained a
lead OF two games 10 love. lie then
