Victory Over BrOokes in Tennis
Singles Match Would Be
Turning Point.
DOUBLES VICTORY DECISIVE
Team Work of AustraIasians
Big Factor in Downfall of
Yankee Pair.

With the Australasian team lead
Ing, to l, for the possession of the
Dwight T. Davis Cup and the 1914
worlds team championship on the
courts, Maurice E. Mclaughlin and
r. Norris Williams, I'd, representing
the defenders today faced the diff
cult task of overcoming this lead by
taking both matches in the final sim
giles. at the West Side Tennis Club,
Forest Hills. American followers Of
the game, who have witnessed the
matches thus far In the challenging
round, expressed the opinion that the
defenders chances of retaining the
famous cup in this country another
year depended largely upon the abil-
fty of Williams to come back after his
slump of Thursday and defeat Nor
man e. Brookes. Little fear was ex-
pressed but that Mclaughlin could
repeat his performance of Thursday
against Brookes and win from An
thony f. Wilding If the champion
ship depended upon his efforts.
The challengers were confident that
one or the other of them would win
his match and the round. After the
match yesterday the Australasians
began making preparations to sail for
home as soon as possible because
England is at war.
victors in Straight Sets.
Brookes and Wilding won three
straight sets in the tennis doubles
yesterday from Mclaughlin and
Bundy. The challengers took the
first set, 6 to 3, the second, to 6, and
the third. 9 to Z.
AS a team Mclaughlin and Bundy
were completely outclassed by the
challengers, the teamwork and the
all-around generalship of Wilding
and Brookes being of the highest
class. No finer exhibition of the
doubles game has ever been seen be-
fore in this country.
Recognizing that Bundy was the
weaker player of the American pair,
the challengers directed their hardest
volleys at him.
Although he handled the rain of
shots in a manner beyond the ex-
pectations of the tennis association
officials, he was unable to hold the
veterans across the net.
With the game seven all in the last
set, the challengers won a love game
in McLoughlin's service. In the next
game, with Wilding serving, Bundy
and Mclaughlin had their opponents
forty love- In this critical stage the
challengers showed their class by
taking five points in a row and the
game, set and match.
Throughout the three sets Nc
Loughlin and Bundy were always on
the defensive, rarely getting a chance
to advance to the net. The fierce and
sustained attacks of the challengers
kept the Americans far back of the
base line. where they did the best

RETENTION OF DAVIS CUP
DEPENDS ON N. r. WILLIAMS

they could to turn terrific smashes
into lobs.
Time and again these lobs fell and
invariably the challengers swooped
down on them for kill.
Mclaughlin Poor Overhead.
McLoughlins overhead work was
very poor. The majority of his
smashes found the net or went out.
His tennis at times was wonderfully
brilliant, while at other times the
Australasians carried the defenders
off their feet.
The Americans tried every style of
game in their repertoire in an en-
deavor to stave off defeat, but with
out avail. If they played in deep
court the invaders rushed to the net
and cut off every return, frequently
leaving their opponents flatfooted in
their perplexity as to where the ball
would be placed.
The attempt to dislodge the chal-
longing pair from the net by lobbing
was a distinct failure. Most of
Bundy's lifts were short, and either
Brookes or Wilding smashed them
back for placement aces or put such
a bound on the ball that a return
was impossible.
At times Bundy and Mclaughlin
appeared to be demoralized, so far as
team work was concerned, and either
interfered with each other or permit
ted the ball to pass between them
without return.
In the general handling of the ball
the victors did by far the cleaner
work. They netted fewer returns and
did not drive out of court with the
81 he 1ncnra n r,Io ~ n
shots, also, they outpointed the Cali
fornians.
Bundy Progressed in Form.
1t was a noticeable feature of the
contest that while Bundy opened in
poor form, he improved In all-around
play as the match progressed. while
the contrary was true of Mclaughlin.
The national tennis champion had
many opportunities to win games in
the closing set, but failed In his shots
at the most critical times. This
break in his form was due to the hard
sets against Brookes yesterday and
his early efforts to win the doubles
matches when Bundy was faltering
under the attack of Brookes and Will
ding.
The contest was witnessed by more
than 1900 persons, who filled every
available seat and aisle in the stands
and gave a scenic setting to the play
never before equaled in Davis cup
match, either in the United States or
abroad.
1t was also a more demonstrative
gallery than that which gathered for
the opening matches. Thrilling and
sensational rallies aroused the enthu-
siasm of both men and women.
