Davis Cup Doubles Team
Wins in Brilliant Match
Voshell and Hardy, New York Veterans, Give
Williams and Washburn Hard Battle
Tilden and Richards in Form.
BY II. e. HARLOW
,.;., s.rvios STAFF Correspondent.)

LoSGwooD CRICKET CLUB,
CHESTNUT HILL, Mass, Aug. "a
Brilliant tennis was played on the
Longwood courts today in the
fourth round of the National doubles
championship.
Three of the four teams to sur
vive for the semi finals have mem
hers of the United States Davis Cup
selections on the list.
r. Norris Williams and watson
washburn, who Will represent
America in the challenge round OF
the Davis Cup as doubles partners
had a difficult time today in dis
posing of Howard Voshell and Sam
uel Hardy, veteran New York play
ers. 1t was a five set match and
in the middle of the fourth set IL
looked as If Vosnell and HARDY
might win.
Williams was far from being at
his best. He exhibited but little
control of his stroke and smashed
the ball into the net or outside.
Voshell and Hardy made deter
mined effort to win and never
played better than against the
Davis Cup pair.
Voshell evidently figured that the
only chance his team had to win
would be by hard hitting. And ne
and Hardy called forth all their
power in smashing the ball. There
were times in the match when they
hit with such speed that Williams
and washburn were completely
slowed up. 1t was this free and
hard hitting which won for them
the second and fourth sets.
williams and Washburn played
with too great care and this de-
tracted from their ordinary style
of play.
Fearing that their hard-earned
reputation as a doubles team might
SUDDENLY be taken from them, they
steadied in the final set and won at
6-3.
William Tilden, End, the worlds
tennis champion and Vincent Rich
ards showed in their match with
Lawrence Williams and Fritz Bas-
tain, the Western doubles cham
pions, that they are going to be
hard to beat in this tournament.
Williams and Bastain surprised
Yesterday by beating the British
Davis cup players, and they gained
that victory because they employed
the hard hitting American style Of
nlay. Today they were against the
'ardest hitter in the world in Bill
Tilden. and some of the singles
champions smashers took Williams
and Bastain off their feet. The West
erners made a very commendable
showing, making four set match
Of II. when they won the second at
six games to four.
William Johnston. another Ameri-
can Davis cup player. and Willis
Davis went into the semi-finals by
beating NJ. j. Hutchinson and C. w.
Sanders of st. Paul, in straight
sets, 6-4, Cd, rs.
The fourth team to reach the
semi-fnais is composed of Robert
and Howard Kinsey of California,
who defeated Burnham Dell, and H.

sets, at 6-2, 60. 6-2

and the Giants drove Babe Adams to
cover In seven innings. Whitley

In the second game, y Phil Doug
las also held the visitors to five
hits, while his mates dubbed Will
bur Hooper into submission in six
innings. Lyle Bigbee. brother of the
Pirate left fielder, relieved Cooper.
Three home runs figured in the
Giants two-ply triumph. Irish Meu-
sci made his thirteenth homo run
of the season in the second inning
of the first game and George Kelly
got his twenty-second in the sixth
round of that combat. A four base
slam by George Burns was the final
blow delivered at Cooper in The
sixth irning of the second game.
