Predictions Of the experts that a
score of 164 would qualify were
knocked into a cooked hat on the ba-
sis OF the scores turned in today.
AS II stands tonight, 160 will be re-
quired to qualify, given the same
weather conditions and about the
same brand of golf.
The experts were pesSimistic about
F1ossmoor before the tournament
opened. but their scores today belied
their pessimism. Flossmoor proved
under the test Of competition that
It is not as hard as 1t looks, but the
scores VIII not be phenomenally low,
as at Brookline. The course is too
long for the sharpshooters to be
nirting with 20 unless they run on a
wild putting rampage.
DuEphy Played the Card.
Chris Dunphy evolved a scheme Of
campaigning before he started out
today that worked out fine in prac-
tice. Chris announced before he left
the frst tee that he was going to
may the card; that is, play against
paS-play for five on five hole, a
Iour on four hole and a three on a
three hole, always with the chance
that a. putt may drop and the assur-
ance that mistakes made by this. kind
OF golf Will not be unduly penalized.
Chris finished I'VE over par. He
made few mistakes, but every one
makes those. On the whole he per-
formed very creditably and deserves
commendation for his fine showing.
Dunphy got out in forty with a. six
on the par five third hole, where he
half hit his second shot and reached
the ditch. He was one over par at
the fifth and again one over at the
sixth, where puts for fours failed to
drop, but he finished 9, 4, T. Chris
got a par four at the fourteenth
went one par on the fifteenth. where
he could not get over the ditch with
his second shot. but got par four
at the sixteenth, a hard hole. He
pushed his drive to the rough at the
seventeenth, and took five against the
par of five. where a fine Second shot
would have secured him a birdie four.

the eighteenth, II looked as II he

Eighteenth FoiIs Standifer.
Guy NJ. Standifer; the 1921 District
champion, got away to a bad start
which nevertheless might have work
ed out all right, but for an eight az
the eighteenth hole, which ran his
score up to 81, Standifer was put
ting very badly. He took four puts
at the fourteenth hole. and three
puts on five other green's, combined
with a few shots through the fair
way which ran his score way up.

gone serenely ahead, apparently IN

liant strokes and no less brilliant

The result came as distinct shock
to the followers of tennis all over the
country, for at their last meeting
Johnston had simply blown Anderson
off the court. II was at once realized
that the cup was in danger. that he
contest was not TO be a tame, one
sided affair, and, accordingly, the
gate receipts mounted rapidly.
Johnston has for years been looked
upon as the one Davis cup player
who not only could win, but who
could win in such an oyerpowering
manner that crushing victory was
almost a certainty. 1t has always
been Tilden who caused anxious mo-
ments for his supporters. t is true
that the latter always has managed
eventually to win all his singles
matches, but he has on a number
of occasions refused to exert him
self to the utmost until the match
was in danger. thereby causing his
adherents TO undergo much agony Of
mind and reducing their nerves TO
rags and tatters.
Johnston Uncertain This Time.
Johnston's scores against the same
players that Tilden has defeated
always have been better than Tildens
until this year. This time II was
Johnston who was the uncertain
player. In his match against Ander-
son the Californian displayed such a
lack of confidence in his own game
that the Australian assumed the
offensive almost from the beginning
and won the last set with the loss of
but single game. Johnston's ia
again, especially when played to the
left court. Consequently he played
mostly from the base line, where An
derson outsteadied him. Tilden. on
the contrary. had an easy time with
Hawkes. in the following match. He
fhrnllRh
almost as he chose, playing nnasterful
tennis and stroking with confidence
and power at all times.
The only time that Tilden played
badly throughout the entire contest
was in the doubles. For three sets
in execution, but Tilden has SO often
begun badly and finished strongly
that he somehow. even in his worst
moments, inspired the feeling that
he would come through at the finish.
This he did after the rest period,
when he was the outstanding figure
of the four. In justice to Tilden il
should be known that there was q
good reason for his faulty play dur
ing the first part Of the match. Both
ers. and the champion gave UP his
| favorite side to Williams He was.
therefore, obliged to play his strokes
from the right court, with which
he is quite unfamiliar in doubles.
Took Time to Adjust Himself.
1t is not surprising that he took
some time to accustom himself TO
this new position. Tilden said after
the match that he was so intent upon
returning the bah safely he did
not realize that he remained in the
back court so much of the time, when
an advance to the net was indis-
pensable. He was thus caught out
