The playing of Miss Pollak and Miss
Gilleaudeau in the doubles was one Of
rf h.
match they defeated Mrs. Lewis Gou-
verneur Morris and Mrs. ". H.
Pritchard at 6-1. e., driving fur
iously and with great accuracy
throughout. They relied upon the same
tactics to take the measure of Mrs.
Rawson Wood and Miss Goss. in the
next round.
Mrs. Wood and her partner are both
more at home up at the net than in
the back of the court, but Yesterday
they could not stop the continual hail
OF hard, low drives that kept tearing
through their court. Miss Goss KILLED"
several high lobs with decisive
smashes, but she did not get manv on.

at her.
