Special Dispatch TO THE New YosK HERALn
NEWPORT, r. l., Aug. 1s.--After being
virtually defeated In straight sets yes
terday by N. w. Niles and Henri Co
chet. the Kinsey brothers came back
strongly to-day. to win thrilling f1ve
set match from r N Williams I'd and
w. NJ. Washburn. 81. 6-4. Ga.
2-6, 6-3, thus taking first honors in
the team event in the invitation tennis
tournament at the Casino. Williams
was the scintilIating star of the match
making some amazing shots at SEEM
ingly impossible angles. But he also
contributed costly errors twice. losing
his service through double faulting and
netting for the final point when victory
was still a possibility.
Robert Kinsey did the most valuable
work for his side, and his steadiness
and quickness to take advantage OF
openings really turned the tide in favor
OF the Californians. Howard ktnsey
made some sensational recoveries. but
was too inclined to put the ball out OF
play on comparatively easy chances.
Washburn. however. was the weakest
OF the quartet. and his uncertain play
overhead contributed directly to the de-
feat Of his team. Williams did more
work than any one else on the court
and his high percentage of earnings as
compared with errors was truly aston
fishing. Bob Kinsey showed even better
in the statistics. but did not take so
many chances.
First Set Service Battle.
The first set was battle OF service,
with Williams opening for his side and
keeping the odd games up to to 8,
when a break was achieved through
