tain his title for three reasons.
He beat Behr, the man who
trimmed Mclaughlin, then beat
Mclaughlin himself. II has
been shown Mclaughlin can
be beaten II he can be made to
play an underhsnd game and
Williams is the chap who can
force him to play returns from
short bounds at the back Of tho
court; Mclaughlin will have 10
play thru the tournament while
Williams, on account Of hold
ing the title. will rest.
II Mclaughlin goes 70 the
challenge round, he probably
will be pretty we'll worn out.
for TO get that far he will have
TO stand off the attack Of Behr,
who has already beaten him.
