MISS HiLDA JAMES

twice In mems singles. Between showers
the officials managed to complete three
matches.
Gerald Patterson OF Australia, VIM
bledon winner, after an erratic first set.
during which he netted with startling
frequency, finally struck his stride in
the second set of his match with Philip
Neer. the University OF California col
legian. and fairly overwhelmed his op-
ponent in the latter half of the match.
The score was g.. 60. Patterson s
service had much freak and momentum
for Neer to handle accurately. and the
Australians forehanders had a world
of power. Behind these forcing shots.
Patterson advanced to the net and I'm
ished the points off in a hurry.
William M. Johnston dropped a set to
Hugh @. NJ. Kelleher. but won the other
two so decisively that 1t was apparent
he was content to play only as hard as
it was necessary. He fought II out
completely from back court. Kelleher,
however, deserved great credit for the
decisive manner in which he blocked
Johnston's best drives after storming
the net In the second set.
Francis T. Hunter, national indoor
champion. defeated Watson NJ. Wash
burn, OF last years Davis cup team,
6-2, CA, but the result could not be
determined an upset. not on the compar-
ative showing of the players this season.
The conditions hampered Washburn con-
siderably. the rain befogging his glasses
and affecting his accuracy. Hunter.
however. forced swifter pace from
start to finish, and brought off his
strokes with far greater fnality and
precision than his opponent.
Johnston to Meet Anderson.
And now the interesting stage has
been reached Billy Johnston meets
James o. Anderson of Australia in one
fourth round match Hunter plays Ger
aid Patterson in another; the winner
of the williams-G ebert match faces
Howard Kinsey OF California, and Law
renee Rice will have the winner of the
Robert Kinsey-Shimizu tussle as an
opponent.
With one exception the victories in
women's singles were scored quickly
and decisively Miss Helen Hooker,
who has been coming along rapidly OF
late, defeated Miss Ceres Baker. after
dropping the first division of play, but
the rest triumphed In straight sets. not
one of the sets being closer than 6--3.
