! however, the worlds champion made up
! his mind that heroic methods must be
adopted to save the situation, and then
began real battle for the points.
Tilden brought into play ali his ter
rife speed and pace on his bullet
service and raced about the court with
tremendous strides as he sought to
take the burden from his little part
ner's shoulders. His play was sensa-
tional at times, although the dim light
was apparently responsible for some of
| the errors that the national title holder
made as some of his shots just failed
to clear the net.
Both Hartmann and Ewing played
sterling tennis all the way, taking Til
den's wicked service with surprising
success, and playing for position so
cleverly that Tilden often found it i'm
possible to get his racquet on the ball.
Little "Sandy" Wiener acquitted him,
self we'll in the face Of the attack he
was subjected to, and brought off some
/ splendid shots. His youth and lack of
weight, however, prevented him from,
finishing off his points decisively, and
it was this failure TO put the ball
away" at critical stages that made de-
feat inevitable.
