the same experience all over again. For
two sets Cedric Major played him to a

In national rank and another of the
seeded players dropped a set to Hugh
G. NJ. kelleher. but this was not so great
surprise. for Kelleher on occasions in
the last two or three seasons has flashed
some brilliant tennis and is no easy
opponent for any of the top ranking
stars. Although 1t took Voshelrs best
speed to recover after the loss of the
second set he succeeded in doing so
dmpressively, and his margin OF 6-3
was convincing enough.

Ddvis cup player checked the Califor-

another. and Washburn soon learned
to anticipate the strokes and come in to
block them.
Regains Confidence.
X Washburn, starting at 1-2 in the
second, won the first three games in
row. taking lead of 4-2. but Davies
rallied and by some brilliant court COW
.ering and passing shots brought the
score to ALL. 1t was nip and tuck
then to the fourteenth game when
Washburn broke through for the set
After that Washburn rapidly gained
back his confidence, and not only his
volleying but his driving improved in
power and accuracy. He ran quickly
into lead of 40 in the final set and
held that lead to the end.
N Shimizu, playing with great cunning
and his usual marvellous accuracy, won
three matches with comparative ease
