The doubles will also be brought
down to the final round this afternoon,
and Harry McNeal, the Casino pro-
fessional in charge of the tourney, has
scheduled the singles final for 9 o'clock
tomorrow afternoon and the doubles
to follow On Saturday there will be
special team match between the men
players of the Casino and the team of
the Longwood Cricket Club. 1t is pos
sible that Mrs. George w. Wightman,
national champion, and Miss Marion
Zinderstein, national doubles champion,
may accompany the Longwood team and
compete in a special mixed doubles
match.
There were not any reversals of form
yesterday, as had been the case on the
preceding days of the tourney, unless
we should regard the quick defeat of
Miss Jessie Gott by Mrs Waring as an
upset The latter triumphed in unex-
pectedly easy fashion, at 6-1, 60,
and the identical scores were made by
Mrs. Mallory against Mrs. Albert
Miss Lillian Scharman, the promising
brooklyn schoolgirl. Miss Goss de-
ton, by q score of 60, 50. playing
with irresistible speed all the way.
Mrs. Waring is a player who has
come along gradually and "sanely," if
l may use the word in this connection.
ihat is, there has been nothing sem
sational about her rise from the ranks.
Hers has been a logical development,
the result of unremitting study and
practice. She was always too steady
TOT Miss Gott yesterday, placing her
drives with fine precision down the
side lines and following in to the net
to voi!ey when the openings had been
made BY forcing shots.
MISS Gott, who had created a sensa-
ton on Monday through her successive
defeats Of Mrs. lingo Hartmann and
Miss Phyllis Walsh, was too nervous to
90 herself justice against Mrs Waring.
and showed no such control of her
strokes as on her previous appearances.
!h1s Is not to be wondered at, under
the circumstances. bdt she will do much
better the coming summer
In the match between Mrs. Candee
ana MISS Scharman it was another case
OF tournament experience and all
around strength proving too much for
ambitious and reckless youth. Miss
Scharman is almost totally lacking in
q knowledge of correct court tactics.
put she has a natural, free swing of
the racquet and q daring that will
carry her far if she sticks to the game.
Her grip of the racquet is wrong, as
she grasps it at the extreme end, vet,
even so, she gets an enomous amount
OF pace" in her forehand drives, and
with the correction of q few faults will
develop rapidly.
1t was the young girls misfortune to
meet Mrs. Candee when the former
Casino champion was going her best.
Not only did the latter drive with
splendid depth and speed, but she was
also in deadly mood overhead and
scored on spectacular kills" of short
lobs.
Mrs. Mallory continued her ,unin
terrupted march of victory yesterday,
her path with the same ease that dis
tlnguished her work all through the
tourney. One game was the best that
MRS. Humphries could do, and this
came In the first set Thereafter the
Morse "whirlwind" swept the court in
lmperious manner, and her opponent
went down swiftly before the tremen-
dous driving attack.
Miss Goss brought to bear a splen-
didly diversified game in taking the
measure of Miss Sigourney, alternat-
ing between powerful driving off fore
and back hand and brilliant low vol
leying from inside the service court
lines. She showed no hesitation in
closing In at the net at every oppor-
tunfty, something she was either un-
able to do or fearful of doing against
Mrs. MALLORY last week.
Two matches were played in the dou-
bles, Miss Caroma Winn and Miss
Walsh defeating Miss Scharman and
Mrs. E. C. Sohst in the first round by
q score Of As, 81, 6-1. In the
second round Mrs. Waring and Mrs
Hartmann defeated Miss Adele Cragin
and Mrs. Percy Wilbourn at 6-2, 6-2
