trate the sterling net game of the Aus tralians today. Parke was particular ly weak in his returns, while Mavro- gordato, who was a target throughout the match. upheld the British side for a time by his catlike work in court covering. His play was spectacular but cratic. Many of his recoveries bordered on the marvellous.
 Brookes' errors were more numerous than Wfldings. for he tried for appar- entity impossible balls. His service was also uncertain. and he started the match with a couple of double faults.
 It was only in the third set, when with the score to 0 against the n, that the Britons rallied
 In the ninth game of the deciding set both Brookes and Wilding became unsteady, but in the last game, on Brookes' service, they resumed then marvellous teamwork, and quickly end ed the one-sided match.
