Rallies in Deep Court
There were several stirring rallies
| from deep court in the match between
Mrs. Mallory and Miss Sigourney, bu.
the Boston girl was not as effective
yesterday as she had been in her
| previous matches during the week, and
the reason for this lay in the fact that
Mrs. Mallory's forcing tactics, and
vented Miss Sigourney from doing her
best. Under the lash of the national
| champions drives and aggressive vol
leying, the Longwood girl was hurried
in making her shots and consequently
| was continually forced on the defen-
sive.
Mrs. Raymond was slow to get
started against Miss Wagner, but once
she had gained control of her shots and
had gagged the length of the court, she
overwhelmed her opponent, winning
five of the games at Glove" and romp-
ing through the match in less than half
an hour. The winners placing was
brilliant and her generalship far su-
perior to that Of Miss Wagner, who
was frequently caught out of position
by Mrs. Raymond's deadly accuracy.
