New-York tribune., 1920-03-28

All thc OUTSTANDING 1dVOIiVeS came :
through the ordeal successfully, al
though in some cases they were forced
d extra sets to retain their places. Six
,layers advanced to the fourth round.
William T. Tilden I'd. of Philadelphia.
aud Fred C. Anderson of Brooklyn, be-
;ng among the number.
There will be ne play to-day, but the
urvivors will get busy again to-mor-
+ row morning at 10 o'clock and proba-
SIv M reach into the round before the
,emi-hnal. The doubles will start
either on Tuesday or Wednesday.
Richards was not able to get a
match yesterday, having drawn a bye
/ IN the first round and getting default
+ from F. H. Robinson in the second
bracket. Tomorrow he will take the
court against Karl Joliffe and then we
shsll be able to get some kind Of line
On his present form.
Tilden Has Easy Time
Tilden, who finished as runner-up to
Richards in the singles last year and
won the doubles, paired with the same
player, won two matches yesterday
without being extended. In the second
round he eliminated Henry S. Parker
at Cd, 60, and then vanquished
little Jerry Lang at 6-1, GO. In both
Of these matches Tilden seemed more
interested In trying out his strokes
than in any mad rush after the points.
s. Howard Voshell, twice winner of
the championship and determined to
win permanent possession of the ti.le
trophy by scoring again this year, took
both his matches with plenty to spare.
In the first round he fairly swept AL
bert ]. Ostendorf off the court at 6-1.
60, and then took the measure Of
George G. Moore jr. by score Of Cd,
81. Voshell looks a trifle heavy just
now, but the matches he must play to
get into the final bracket (should he
reach there) are calculated to place
him at pretty close to top form.
One Of the best matches of the day
resulted in the clash between Frank T.
Rosenbaum, of this city. Anderson had
to 60 three sets before he could claim
the victory, the score being 3-6,
60, e.
In the early stages Of this struggle
Rosenbaum had all his shots working
beautifully. 1t is a rather unusual
thing to find Rosenbaum steady over
head but he was yesterday in the first
set of the match, fairly cannonading
smashes through the youthful Ander-
sons court. The medico's forehand
Fdrive also had world of power behind
1t and his volleying was finely exc
cuted.
First Set to Loser
Anderson was slow ITO get started.
His strokes were made with plenty of
snap and speed, but he was just hit
ting the top OF the net or going just
over the lines. Toward the latter part
Of the opening set he began to acquire
control, but Rosenbaum was still going
at full speed and ran out the set at
6-3
In the second Anderson soon made it
plain that he was going to reverse mat
ters. He was up on his toes every sec
ond and uncovered very severe and
aecurate overhead game, his smashes
being spectacular and deadly. At vol
leying, too, the brilliant Brooklyn
junior improved immeasureably, and
bis footwork was treat to watch.
Rosenbaum, bit overanxious when
ne saw how things were setting against
him, began to waver and to make er-
rors that before he had not been guilty
Of The pace of the match kept in
ereasing. with Anderson fairly rev.
cling in the lightning rallies and de-
lighting the gallery by the speed and
accuracy of his fore and backhand
drives. Straight through the second
ret ne raced, Rosenbaum being unable
a /" win game.
Although the elder player regained
partial control of his overhead game
70 the third and final set, he could not
xas hitting everything beautifully and
making few mistakes. Rosenbaum got
Mo games and that was his limit, for
Anderson closed with wonderful
Ourst Of speed and hard hitting to take
Ms set at 6-2, and the match.
IN his second round encounter Frank
vas opposed by ]. L. Anderson. not re-
a.ed to him except by the bond that
astracts them both to lawn tennis, and
!ook the match in straight sets at 6-1,
81, flashing the same brand of tennis
mat mad vanquished Rosenbaum. To-
morrow Anderson will face Voshell in
wnat should prove one of the feature
aslcnes of the tournament. The win
aSr OF that match will have to struggle

Few Upsets Expected

sstson-Voshell match. the tournament
.aouid proceed without unlocked for
stS until the survivors are we'll out
%ward the semi-fnals. 1t is difficult to
Eek to-day as between Anderson and
'.osnell. The latter is player with
'o's Of reserve strength and should i'm
plove with every match. but as they
q rayed yesterday l should incline to-
"rd young Anderson.
Alchards got in little practice dur
as the afternoon, and his shots
';s Ssmed to be doing we'll. The cham
ron assured me that he was in fine
laying condition and seemed quietly
sssin s"ssaindaent as to his ability to perform
