ChampionS>Kept Busy.
Taking everything into consideration,
the doubles champions had a busy day
of It. They had to play about every
kind of tennis that can be played. They
started in the singles and unfortunately
because the way the draw turned out
the girls had to oppose one another. At
any rate they both had to play and Miss
Goss proved the better. Their match
was hard fought one and brought out
what ordinarily would have been enough
tennis for a day. But then the national
title holders were scheduled to play in
both the doubles and mixed doubles. In
cidentally, in the mixed doubles, Mrs.
Wightman and Miss Goss had to play
twice during the course of the afternoon.
The singles match was the occasion
for great IDEAL of conjecture on the
part Of the followers Of the game. It Is
known that both Miss Goss and Miss
Zinderstein play the same type of game
Miss Goss was slightly favored by the
experts because of the fact that she had
won the Pelham tournament and also
because her early season game had
shown up to better advantage than that
of Miss Zinderstein.
Miss Goss was at her best yesterday
and made everything count. Miss Zin-
derstein. however, although strong ordi-
narily on her service, was very weak In
this department OF the game yesterday.
She made nine double faults during the
course Of tho match, and six Of these
we're crowded into the first set That
this weakness worked strongly to her
disadvantage is evident from the fact
that on the total of points for the match
Mfrs Goss was only five better than Miss
Zinderstein, at 81 to 70.
On a total OF errors. exclusive OF
double faults. there was absolutely no
difference. Each one of the players
made fifty-six slip ups Miss Goss drove
25 into the net and 81 out of bounds.
Miss zinderstein just reversed the order
and made 81 nets and % outs. Miss
Gos6s service was far better than that
OF Miss Zinderstein. but neither one Of
them made a service ace.
Champions Win Easily.
The champions had no trouble at all
In the doubles. There was not a time
in the course of the match when the
result was in doubt During the open
ing set Miss Goss and Miss Zinde-stein
seemed able TO make points at will In
spite of the fact that Mrs, Wightmsn
was felt to be the strong member of the
Boston team, the champions showed
their disdain for strength by directing
their attack straight at her.
Mrs, wightman played some excep-
tional tennis, but she could not cope with
the steady stream OF cannonball like
drives that came her way, and could not
offer a great deal of opposition to the
national title holders. In the second set
the champions took II easy for spell.
During the first four games OF this set
the Boston team forced Miss Goss and
Miss Zinderstein to extra points In each
game The champions. however, won
those four and one more before they
slowed I'd enough to lose a game. Then
their slowing up was only momentary
and they finished the match with love
game.
