Inc greatest shock OF the day was
the decisive beating Of Richard Norris
Williams I'd, Of Boston. by Johnston,
the match going in straight sets at
81, 60, 6-3, and at no time did
Williams have chance of gaining the
honors. The cherubic Griffin handed
the big gallery another stunning sur
prise on an outside court by defeating
Watson M. Washburn, of New York,
winner Of the Seabright bowl last
week, by score of 7--5, Is, 6-3.
In the mean time, Roberts was waging
stubborn battle against S. Howard
Voshell, Of New York, finally taking the
match by score of 4-6, Cd, 6--3,
4-6, 81, and the fourth match saw
the tall and cyclonic Davis humble the
taller but less cyclonic G. Colket Gamer,
OF Boston, the sets going at 3-6, 7-5,
6-3, Is. That was ali for the morn
ing session Of play, but California
scored again in the afternoon when
Johnston and Griffin went into the final
round of the doubles by defeating their
fellow NATIVE sons" Davis and Rob-
erts, by score Of 81, 3-6, Cd, Is.
Williams and Harte Win
In the other match Williams and
Richard Harte, of Boston, defeated
Wallace ]. Johnson and Stanley w.
Pearson, of Philadelphia, at 7-5, GO,
6--3. The program for tomorrow calls
for Roberts and Griffin to meet on the
famous championship stretch of turf
at 1880 o'clock, while Davis and John
ston will settle their little dispute on
the clubhouse court at the same hour.
The final round match in the doubles
will be played tomorrow afternoon,
with Johnston and Griffith facing Will
Jams and Harte.
The final round match in the singles
will be played on Saturday afternoon,
following which the final round in the
mixed doubles event will be played,
bringing the tournament to an end.
The championship court was still
heavy when Johnston and Williams
came out this morning and began to
warm up" Heavy fogs and occasional
drizzling rain that prevailed right up
to the time of play were not sufficient
to keep the galleries away from the
Casino, and the seats were we'll filled
when the men started the match. Hon.
Fred Mansfield, Of Boston, sat in the
umpires' chair.
| confess that Williams is the enigma
of the courts to me. Yesterday in the
doubles match against Biddlc and Gar
land he was superbly brilliant at times
and all his many shots were being
rceled off with the touch of the wizard.
To-day this same Williams went down
before the wonderfully aggressive play
Of little ] Johnston, practically with out q
struggle. Shots that were scoring
placement aces yesterday were hitting
the net or going wide of the court with
distressing regularity to-day.
Williams Plays Poorly
And Williams actually threw points
away when he most needed them in
the ninth and final game of the last
set. AS an example, Williams was
trailing in the games score at 3-5,
but he was leading on points at 40
on Johnston's service. All he needed
vas one point to make the games 81,
and then with his own SerYice he mi CHIT

have won the next game and made the
score Gall. But what did he do?
Following the return of his service
Johnston popped up a weak backhand
!oo from his base line with the ball
barely clearing the net. Williams was
right on top of the ball as it landed,
and with almost the entire opposite
court open, almost any shot would have
won the point and the game for him, but
Williams elected to try to "shave" the
net with soft heavily chopped fore
hand stroke. The ball hit the top of
the net and fell back into Williams's
court and his last chance was gone.
for Johnston took the noxt two points
one with a splendid drive to his op-
ponent's deep backhand and the NEXT
with truly herculean smash of a deep
lob. bringing the points to "deucc. !"
Williams made two nets and an "out"
after that and the match was John
ston's.
Johnston's Brilliancy
A notable feature Of the champion's
game to-day was the steadiness and
aggresslveness of his backhand and his
superb overland volleying from inside
the service court lines. With Johnston
1t was largely matter CT keeping the
ball in play and allowing Williams
to make the errors, and yet when Will
iams showed signs of staging rally
IN the final set Johnston accepted the
challenge with alacrity and began to
"stroke" his dreaded forehand drives
with furious speed and to charge for
the net with all his old fire. He seemed
ready for anything Williams might at
tempt and he looked champion indeed.
Washburn was an odds-on favorite
Wh6n he sta rtaH (1,,iA,p
the little Californian proceeded to
walk away with the match in convincing
style. For one thing, Griffin refused
to play Washburn's game of hard,
steady hitting from back court. In
stead, he softencd his stroke to suit
the occasion and kept his man con-
stantly on the run by bewildering
change of pace. Voshell put up a ter
rife struggle against Roberts, who
showed great improvement to-day, but
in the fifth set the New Yorker tired
badly. Davis had the ledge" over
Gamer most of the way, his service and
great volleying forming potent weapons
of attack.

finished the last twelve holes in an
average of even As by fine, sound
golf
Long Jim Barnes, after taking 76 in
the forenoon, came back brilliantly for
the afternoon struggle. He moved
along as serenely and as evenly as 81
white cloud across blue summer sky
His brilliant 70 was obtained without
effort, the result of long straight hit
ting and sound gol + in every way. And
when he reached trouble he took fate
by the throat At the sixth he was
bunkered close against the side Of
green guarding trap. His recovery
was a masterpiece
BY wonderful wrist work the ball
came out struck four feet from the
cup and jumped in at right angles to
within two feet Of the hole from the
amount of cut he applied. 1t was q
rare skill, for if the ball had not
arisen quickly he would have buried it
against the bunker's bank.
Young and a Fighter
Diegel went out to win from the
start. The homebred from Chicago is
only twentythree years old, but they
make no better fighters. With a To
in the forenoon, he was out in 35 for
the 522-yard twelfth.
A 7 is a heart blow in any medal
round championship, but the youngster
showed his nerve by playing the next
six holes in one under As, finishing
with a spectacular g. Don't overlook
this second edition Of J. ]. McDermot
in any final summing up.
Now for Vardon and Ray. Stroke
for stroke these two great British vet
Grams moved around the course. VAR
don, with his uncanny ease and steadi-
ness, with his supreme grace and un-
ruffied certainty, was as steady as his
own English cliffs. Here and there,
with his quick, nervous jab on short
putt, he missed few twofooters, but
outside of this he made only few
mistakes. His thirty-six holes con-
sisted of five IS, twenty three As and
eight SIS.
Ray, in his double round, proved two
things beyond doubt. He proved con-
clusivcly that he is the longest driver
in the world and the best putter now
playing golf. In his afternoon round
he holed a thirty footer for 4, after
being trapped at the first; twenty
footer for a at the second, after get
ting into trouble; a forty-footer for o
2 at the short third, and so on until
after taking four shots to reach the
green at the long twelfth, he again
holed a sliding thirty-footer for his

Takes But Little Time

He takes but little time over his putt
lunches in bit with his right hip as
he hits the ball, and away it goes for
the bottom of the cup from stroke
as delicate as any one could wish to
see.
His driving was worth far journey.
Coming to the 340-yard seventh he
carried the trees and landed his ball
in the middle of the green, twelve feet
beyond the pin, where he barely missed
d g His greatest efforts were at the
ninth and the twelfth. The ninth hole
is 492 yards long.
In the morning round Ray was home
with drive and mashie. In the
afternoon round he carried tree to
the right, fifty feet high and 240 yards
from the tee, the ball finally stopping
fifty yards beyond road that only.
fine drive could reach. And in the
morning, after hosting his tee shot, he
reached the long 522-yard twelfth with
a brassie shot that carried close to 300
yards before it stopped fourteen 1eet
beyond the pin. Any one who can drive
900 wards and tap in puts of thirty
feet is not to be overlooked. The
British peril is far from being checked.
