Tilden was master Of the situation
practically at every moment this after

periortty over his former doubles part

accuracy of his shots had Richards on
the defensive during the greater part OF
the clash.
Richards gave Tilden keen battle at
the beginning Of the first set, leading at
2-lcve and again at 80. Tilden evened
the count at 3-all on his own service,
broke through Richards's delivery in the
seventh game. which proved the turning
point of the set. and was never headed.
In the ninth game Tilden was leading
by 40-15, but hit two into the net.

in his eagerness to take prompt advan-
tage of this slip, made a double fault
and his last chance went glimmering.
