HasM'Loughlin Begun
To Falter in Tennis?|
Comets Game of Today Is Nothing Like the Star of
Davis Cup Competitions-Player Old Spirit
Seems To Be Lacking.

What Is the matter with McLoughlin,
10 the question uppermost In the minds
OF tennis followers. Although the Cali
fornian has no. excuses to offer for
his defeats this season at the hands Of
Karl H. Behr and Richard Norris Will
liams. End. those who have seen him
play In other years when his brilliance
and speed earned him the title Of
Comet are looking for some excuse for
Macs showing. Most Of those who saw
him beat Norman e. Brookes and the
late Anthony F. wilding in the chal-
lenge round of the Davis cup matches
last year and saw williams fall before
the same pair with scarcely a struggle
nnd 1t hard to believe that the Phila-
delphian Is the better player.
Seemingly the most logical reason for
McLoughlin's poor record this season
1t Is poor only because he has educated
followers OF the game into believing him
,lnvincible--is the change in his style Of
game. The McLouRhlin who defeated
the great Australasians last year wal
spectacular net style Of play that thu
same has ever produced The McLough-
lin, who was beaten by Behr In Sea
bright and by williams in Newport wal
Ialrly goOo deep court piayer.
1t IL true that when McLougElin wa
sweeping everything before him his bacl
court game was weak. his ground
strokes mediocre and his backhand pass.
able. These defects did not bother Nc
Loughltn a great deal. however. He did
not need the back court game. He wal
80 agile and powerful at the net thai
only strokes extraordinary passed him
Nor did he need to be any better OF
his ground strokes. for he was a vol
leyer without peer and when he wantet
to there were mighty few strokes to hi
backhand that he could not run around
He has apparently sacrificed all Of thes'
qualities for little or nothing. His bocl
hand. ground strokes and deep cour
game have improved. but not enough I,
take the place OF his other game.
