to clear up the thing the men were
brought together to talk 1t over. The
point was then made, which was
brought out at the first meeting of the
tournament committee at the West Side
Tennis Club, that this is II benent tour
nnment TO raise money for the War and
Navy Departments Commission on
Training Camp Activities and that the
championship is relatively incidental
In other words, the players feel that
they are helping a worthy enterprise,
and their entries are given with that
understanding. When this argument was
put to kumagae he recognized Its force
and said that on such basis he would
be glad to help make the tournament a
success. Consequently he has accepted
the invitation to compete. rendered by
Julian S. Myrick as vce-president OF
the United States National Lawn Tennis
Association and has agreed to play In
the championship.
Murray VIII Compete.
b In some quarters Kumagae's decision
to compete for the national title will he
regarded as a decision to accept the
championship. There is tendency to
underestimate the calibre of the field
which will play at Forest Hills. Suffice II
to say that the entry will be up to the
standard OF two years ago, and that 1t Is
not at all certain that the title will go to
Japan. Robert Lindley Murray. winner

FIRST SET.

There was keen regret because OF
kashio's inability TO meet Taylor. There
were many OF the opinion that Taylor
would have given him the hardest battle
Of his career. The youngster must be
given serious consideration. as he dem
onstrated his prowess by his two VIC
tories on Friday, when he defeated
Chambers and Claiming Burrows IN easy
fashion. However. Taylor will be put
tc a severe test when he clashes with
kumagae. Taylor should use his dash
ing net game TO advantage. Besides he
10 cool in the pinches.
How he will act In his match with
Kumagae is a matter OF conjecture. 1t
is safe to say that n Taylor plays up to
tho form he showed on Friday the Jap
will have his hands full in order to .ore
a victory.
Doubles Full of Action.
The semi-hnal doubles contest be-
tween Chambers and Mollenhauer and
Donaldson and Ritchle was replete with
action. Spectacular exchanges featured
the competition at all times. Chambers
and Mollenhauer won because they de-
l'vered telling blows at the psychological
noment. Mollenhauer stood out con-
spcuously among tho players He
seemed TO be everywhere and seldom
lost a chance to score when the ball
came in his territory, Donaldson played
brilliantly for the losing side. His SEN
sational drives aroused favorable COM
ment Were he little less anxious to
score he would have showed to better ad-
vantage.
Mollenhauer and Chambers will meet
DR.. Rosenbaum and Baggs in the final
this afternoon.
DR.. Rosenbaum and Baggs won their
semi-final match from Anderson and
Burrows on Friday.
A. r. Neill. chairman OF the tennis
