with the great Norman Everard Brooks,
Patterson won the national doubles ti-

:.rfght on this occasion.
Two other teams reached the round

lot of mediocre play upon the part of
the latter team.
Task for the Anzacs
Patterson, and Wood had their work
cut out from the start, when they
faced the young Western champions,
Waiter Wesbrook and John Hennessey.
Ii was only after three nip and tuck
sets, et 75, SIS, SIS, that the Aus
tralas.ans were able to leave the courts
as vicjors. -Four times in the second
set did WesbrooG and Hennessey come
within @ eingle point of winning the
set and tquaring the match, and they
led at 81, 5---3, and 6--5 in this set
and also at 81 and 6--5 in the last
session; yet each time Patterson and
Wood saved themselves by turning on
added speed and power. 1t was this
ability to come through with added
force in their attack, when the situa-
ton placed the most urgent demands
upon them, that saved the pair from
the Antipodeans.
The Kinseys were never In danger
In their match with Beekman and
Kslleher, and Willisms and Washburn

Continues Meteoric Career
Mrs. Mallory continued on her me-
ssoric career through the field to-day.
ii her first mstch the national cham
pion defeated Mrs. j. S. Quimby at
81, Go, and in the third round she
won from Mrs. w. Fl. Trumbull jr., by
the crushing margin Of 60, 60. In
the three matches she has played thus
far in the singles Mrs. Mallory has
lost total of two games. No other
comment on the power of her game is
needed. In this particular case. the
figures do not lie. they adhere to the
strict truth.
Miss Wills, on the opposite side of
the draw, won her match practically
as decisively. eliminating Mrs. J. D.
Corbiere, of Boston at 60, 81. How
swiftly fame travels! When the Cali
fornia school girl came out to play
her match there were not fifty per-
sons around the court. Miss Wills
before he gallery had jammed itself
not only on the club house veranda,
but also stood ten or twelve deep in
the aisle to the east of the court.
That's her, the girl with the white
yizor-she was runner-up to Mrs. NAL
Tory for the national championship last
week and she's only seventeen years
oldp
Such was the general tenor Of the
remarks heard on all sides.

whelming Miss Jessie Grieve, of Cali
