 William T. Tilden and Arnold Jones, of America, defeated NJ Blanchy and Jean Sama zeuilh, France. 6-2. 6-5. s4. TIden did not extend himself in his match against Flaquer. his opponent was | consistently ztesdy Ihrf1ghos1t the match but earned very few points. All the games won by Flacuer were the re- suit of Tilden's errors, the worlds grass court champion running into streak of | netting at one point. and also frequent | ly hitting outside. In the last set. with l Tilden leading, five games to three, he l made a succession of errors which en- abled the Spaniard to bring the score i to deuce but Tilden finally won the ] long drawn out set by superior placing | and court strategy when forced to ex-
 ert himself.
 The large crowd of spectators. with | the exception of the Americans, seemed
 to favor the Spaniard after the first set,
 which TilGen won with con7ummate
 ease, cheering Flaquer each time point
 was scored for him. The American was 1 given a great cheer when the Spaniard
 had Q point called gainst him for an out
 when the ball in fact had struck inside, | Tilden purposely landed one outside, to even things up, as it apepared.
 Mrs. Mallors did not encounter seri-
 ous opposition from Mile Amb,ard. She
 displayed a better service and more
 diversified game than her opponent. con
 sistently outplaying the Belgian cham
 pion. Her game marked an improve
 ment over her play yesterday in the
 doubles and raised the hopes of her sup i porters for her against Mile. Suzanne
 Lenglen.
 Miss Sigourncy had an easier time de feating Mime. Danet than the score in , dicates. the American woman playinl
 well within her game at all times. Hel
 play also was an improvement over yes terday's as was the case with Mrs Mallory. Mime. Danet is rated smont the first ten of the women players O q France
 . The Americans wen a clean victor, Q in the second round today of the world I hard court tennis championship, whic Q attracted great crowds to the courts her' Q William T. Tilden, who holds the Ameri |, can and British championships on tn Q grass courts, was the great attraction : and he defeated the Spanish expert ed ] uardo Flaquer in a four set match, i
 which his superiority was marked.
 Mrs Mola Biourstedt Maliorey anc
 Miss Sigourney of the American conting |. ent, showed good form and won thei . matches handily
 Tiden dominated in the match in whic
 he and Arnold Jones met the FTenc
 champions Jean Samszeuilh and h ' teammate NJ Blancny. another well rate V French player. Tilden displayed sl perior form to anything he had show Q thus far in France and broke up 9 IT the attacks of the French pair, whic = were largely directed against youn V Jones.
 1T His boy partner ably seconded him, d T though Tilden made two thirds Of tf $ shots and covered .hree fourths of 1T # court. the crowds frequently applaudin
 his magnificent drives and placements. Il Andrew Colbert, the former Frenc SC champion who watched the game wit l. keen interest, said that he never ha D. seen better tennis.

 mans French championship. won again 10 Madame Reborman, with consummat h ease, so. so. in such quick time tn: 1e the players scheduled to follow her -h the courts were still dressing in u
 clubhouse when the match was over.
 The championships today attract
 more attention from the Parisian pub
 than on the opening day because of t iS appearance of Tilden and also the Spa gs ish team, and despite the threatenil mt weather the crowds assembled were t ed largest that ever attended tennis match Il in France.
 to The members of the American colo ty in Paris hurried away from the ci il. after attending the Memorial day eel ng mony and occupied practically an . te. tire side of the main grandstand. Tn eil cheered Tilden heartily as he took t ly, court against Flaouer. It. The drawings for tomorrow are as f as lows:
