Two new records were established in

Doyle's behalf that he was not at his

doubtedly due to the fact that he is so

District that he is not able to get in anv

Bull Looks Strong.

II Bull continues throughout the year
playing the game he showed in yester-
days match he will Undoubtedly be
ranked among the first ten in the coun-
try. as his game could hardly have been
improved upon. Such passing as he
showed has never been seen in Washing
ton before In this respect he played
Doyle right off his feet. and he counted
time after time on cleverly executed
shots down the side lines or just out of
Doyles reach. which kept the gallery
keyed up to a high pitch. His ground
covering ability was also much in evil
dence, and he was always with every
play, handling his backhand shots with
as much precision and grace as he did
his fOrehand. and showing not a single
weakness, unless his service could be
called weakness. 1t appeared to be
rather easy for Doyle to handle, and he
did not count single ace, losing two
more games than he won.
Both Doyle and Bull are great net play
eis and their games were somewhat SINH
lar in that each worked his way to the
net as often as possible, from winch place
to score on or kill well directed shots
through any holes in the opposing sides
defense. Bull won out two ways in this
game, however, as it was when Doyle
most of his passes and he was the more
successful in working his way to the front
himself.
The opening game of the match went to
the local player. Bull taking the next two
which were both deuce ones. The next
game. which was the longest of the
match, went to Doyle. tieing things up

fourteen games being necessary before he

his old-time form and took three straight

them He let down a peg or two and
lost the next two, but went in the lead
again by taking the ninth game. Bull
tied him up on the tenth. and from this
time on it was anybodys SET each being
within one or two points of it on several

A summary of the game shows that
Bull made twelve double faults to Doyles
seven. and that Doyle is credited with the
only two aces OF the game. Bull passed
Doyle forty times and was passed by his
opponent twenty-eight times. Bull drove
twenty EIGHT balls out of the back Of the

into the net, while Doyle's figures were

Play Becomes Faster.

In this set and in those which followed
the play was much faster than that
shown in the opening number, by this
time both players having gotten warmed
up and also familiariZed themselves with
the others style The third set was the
shortest of the match, Bull winning out
in eight games. In the fifth game or this
set he scored on four successive passes.
and in the two following games he count
ed on three.
The fourth and what proved to be the
deciding set was the best of the match, rs
each played as If his life depended on the
result. Doyle realizing that its loss meant
that of the match also and Bull being
just determined to end matters as
quickly as possible. With both playing
their hardest. some dazzling tennis was
bound to be the result, and the set was
rapid rallies. The challenger jumped to
the front by taking the first three games.
Doyle counting but point in each of
them. Doyle took the next three. lost
one of the next two, and then went into
the lead. a. by winning the ninth. In
the tenth game, which was a deuce one,
twice he was within a point of winning
the set, on one occasion losing out on
a poor decision by the linesman, and on
the second occasion giving his opponent
another chance on double fault. This
seemed to take the life out of him and
Bull won the eleventh and twelfth, there
by ending one of the best matches of the
year and taking the cup away from
Washington.

No Condemnation.

Among the striking passages that bring
message of comfort, consolation an6
unspeakable privilege to believers are
those that speak of deliverance from the
body of sin and death.
In Romans. Sill, we learn the condi-
tons under which we may escape CON
domination
1t is not stated that we do not deserve
condemnation or that no accusation can
be made against us, but that there Is mo
condemnation to them which are in Christ
Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but
after the spirit.
Here we have the great truth of Justi-
fication and how it may be gained. We
know that the law cannot free us from
sin or its punishment The law has no
power of pardon or grace.
No one is able to keep the law, and
there is no escape from condemnation ex-
cept through union with Him who
stands in our room and stead and imputes
to us His righteousness for our justifica-
ton.
1t is a great lesson to learn that the
law of the spirit of life or the cove
nant of grace, can make us free from the
law of sin and death, or the covenant of
works.
