SEABRIoHT, N. J., July S1.-Play was
brought down to the final rounds in both
tho singles and doubles Of the invitation
tennis tournament at the Seabrisht Lawn
Tennis and Cricket Club here to-day in
All afternoon of tennis that was over
upsets. The first OF the surprises was
the defeat of Frederick b. Alexander,
former internationalist, In the semi-final
round of the singles by Leonard Beck
man. the Princeton player, at SIS. e-1.
Ga. Incidental to this match was the
fact that nineteen Of the twenty-five
games went to deuce and one of them
required ~ points before q decision was
reached.
Internationally the next thing that
stood out was the brilliant doubles play
of Robert Kinsey and Axel Craven, the
young California players, who. after get
ting away to a bad start, made a grand
stand finish and very nearly defeated
the national champions, William T. TIL
den I'd and Vincent Richards The
champions pulled out on top in three sets
at 60, 4-6, "a.
Then came the banner. event of the
afternoon, the defeat of Frederick b.
Alexander and S. Howard Voshell, the
Tri-State doubles champions in the other
semi-final round doubles match by Hall
and Beekman in straight sets at s-as
l21-1s. The second set OF this match
required almost two hourf Of play.
There was n total Of s5s points In the
set and long raflies both from the base
line and at the net ware frequent
The last twenty games Of the match
were played In showers and this prob
ably was the only thing which kept
the four players from dropping from ex-
haustion-

There was a large crowd Of tennis
lovers out to see the matches In spite
OF the fact that the weather. was
| threatening from early in the afternoon.
Once the crowd had taken up It's posi-
| ton around the court on which the
combinations were competing in their
match. which Is bound to go down in
tennis history as a classic, not even
the heavy rain showers could bulge II.

they were mighty qrlickly forgotten.
Beekman, by his surprising victory
over Alexander, earns the right to play

afternoon. Tilden came through by de-

round match two sets to ono at 6-s

doubles. The singles matches were
both rather disappointing. In his match

Here Are HIS Full scores.

This Is Edgar's first season In Amer
lea. He came over early in the spring
with his leading recommendation as a
topnotch golfer the fact that he had won
the last open tournament played in Eu-
rope. the French open. Just before the
outbreak of the war. In that tournament
he distanced Harry vardon by eight
strokes. Chiefly because of this fact he
was considered a possibility to push the
winner In the national open at Brae
Burn. However. he never reached his
top stride on the Boston course. Nor
did he show anything especially note
worthy IN the Western open at Cleve-
land recently.
New York will get an opportunity to
watch Edgars work in the Professional
Golfers Association tournament at the
Engineers Club the last week in Au-
gust, provided that date is kept for this
event. At any rate. Edgar will be on
hand for this contest. He already has
qualified, along with Freddy Mcleod and
Emmett French. for the Southeastern dis
trict.
Anent John Doyles contention on the
use of one hand only in making short
puts, the record OF Louis Martucci the
one arm player. at Shackamaxon
Wednesday Is rather Interesting. Forced
to Doyle's methods by misfortune. the
White Beeches professional announced.
after finishing his second round, that he
had not taken more than two puts on
single green. On several he ran his ap-
proach near enough to let him get down
IN one.

| leather, and that snow was clinging 1 to them. She made a little rush toward him, and, as one of his feet rested on the iron step of the machine, in mounting, she began to clean the snow from his shoe with her almost aerial lace handkerchief. You mustn't catch cold!" she cried.
 "Stop that!" George shouted, and furiously withdrew his foot. ''For heavens sake get in! You're stand ing in the snow yourself. Get in!"
 Isabel consented, turning to Morgan, whose habitual expression of appre- | hensiveness was somewhat accentu- ated. He climbed up after her, George Anderson having gone to the other side. "You're the same Isabel I used to know" he said in a low voice. You're a divinely ridiculous woman"
 Am I, Eugene?" she said, not dis pleased "'Divinely' and ridiculous just counterbalance each other, don't they? Plus one and minus one equal nothing; so you mean I'm nothing in particular?'
 "NO," he answered, tugging at lever. "That doesn't seem to be pre- cisely what I meant. There!" This exclamation referred to the subterra- mean machinery, for dismaying sounds came from beneath the floor, and the vehicle plunged, then rolled noisily forward
 "Behold" George Anderson ex- claimed. "She does move! It must be another accident"
 'Accident?" Morgan shouted over the din. "Nol She breathes, she stirs; she seems to feel a thrill of life along her keel" And he began to sing "The Star Spangled Banner"
 Anderson joined him lustily, and sang on when Morgan stopped. His nephew, behind, was gloomy. He had overheard his mothers conversation with the inventor: it seemed curious to him that this Morgan, of whom he had never heard until last night, should be using the name 'TsabeT so easily; and George felt that it was not just the thing for his mother to call | A'ASA oeAi i1uSCIC lIt ICStHlLclI Ol l the previous night came upon George again. Meanwhile his mother and Morgan continued their talk; but he could no longer hear what they said; the noise of the car and his uncle's songful mood prevented. He marked how animated Isabel seemed; it was not strange to see his mother so gay, but it was strange that man not of the family should be the cause of her gayety. And George sat drowning.
 Lucy turned to him. "You tried to swing underneath me and break the fall for me when we went over," she said. ''I knew you were doing that, and--it was nice of you."
 "Wasn't any fall to speak off," he returned brusquely. Couldn't have hurt either of us"
 "Still it was friendly of you-and awfully quick, too. I'll not-TH not forget it!'
 Her voice had a sound of genuine ness, very pleasant, and George be- gan to forget his annoyance with her father. This annoyance of his had not

1 the house Major Anderson had built for Isabel as wedding gift. He i frowned as they passed closed car l riage and pair. The body of this com. | fortable vehicle sagged slightly to one l side; the paint was old and scanned with hundreds of minute cracks like little rivers on black map; the seemed to drowse upon the box; but | the open window afforded the occu- pants of the cutter a glimpse of a tired, fine old face, silk hat, a pearl tie and an astrachan collar, evidently out to take the air.
 "There's your grandfather now" said Lucy. "Isn't it?"
 Georges frown was not relaxed. "Yes, it is; and he ought to give that rat trap away and sell those old horses. They're disgrace, all shaggy not even clipped. I suppose he doesn't notice it-people get awful funny when they get old; they seem to lose their self-respect, sort of"
 ''IIe seemed a real Brummell to me-" she said.
 "Oh, he keeps up about what he wears, well enough, but Another thing I don't think he ought to allow: a good many people bought big lots and they built houses on lem; then the price of the land kept getting higher and they'd sell part of their yards and let the people that bought it build on it to ~live in, till they haven't hardly any of lem got big, open yards any more, and it's getting all bspilftt Tlhfe way it used te be 1t was a gentleman's country estate, and that's the way my grandfather ought to keep it. He lets these people take too many liberties: they do anything they want to-"
 "But how could he stop them" Lucy asked, surely with reason. ''If he sold them the land it's theirs, isn't it?"
 George remained serene in the face of this apparently difficult question. ''He ought to have all the tradespeople boycott the families that sell part of their yards that way. All he'd have to do would be to tell the tradespeople they wouldn't get any more orders from the family if they didn't do it."
 Prom the family?' What family?"
 "Our family" said George, unper- turbed. "The Ambersons."

Cleveland County herald., 1919-10-23

"No. nor" she cried. "You'll catch cold; you mustn't catch coldi !" And she continued to brush him.
 Anderson had brought Lucy's hat; Miss Fanny acted as lady's maid; and both victims of the accident were presently restored to about their usual appearance and condition of apparel. In fact, encouraged by the two older gentlemen, the entire party, with one exception, decided that the episode was after all merry one, and began to laugh about it. But George was glummer than the December twilight now swiftly closing in.
 'That darned horse!' he said.
 q wouldn't bother about Pendennis, Georgie," said his uncle. You can send <, gman out for what's left of the cutter tomorrow, and Pendennis will gallop home to his stable: he'll be there long while before we will, be- cause all we've got to depend on to get us home is Gene Morgan's broken down chafng dish yonder."
 They were approaching the machine as he spoke, and his friend, again un- derneath it, heard him. He emerged, smiling. Shell go," he said.
 "What !'
 "All aboardn'
 He offered his hand to Isabel. She was smiling but still pale, and her eyes, in spite of the smile, kept upon George in a shocked anxiety. Miss Fanny had already mounted to the rear seat, and George, after helping Lucy Morgan to climb up beside his aunt, was following. Isabel saw that his shoes were light things of patent
