Where Johnson fought to the finish
on sheer nerve the champion seemed
as strong in the final game as he
stamina, coupled with the champion s
mastery of stroke, was too much for
Johnston.
The Californian had his oppor.
tunities, many of them, but somehow
Tilden always rose to his best when
danger was closest Thus 1t was that
he turned back Johnston In the long
second set. The crisis here came in
the eighteenth game, when Johnston
fighting his way to a lead of 9--S, led
at 400. and subsequently hadsad.
vantage point twice.
TiIden Braces Each Time.
Each time, however, with only q
point separating him from the loss of
the set. Tilden came through. A serv-
ice ace deuced the game, an out on q
forcing drive saved him the second
time. and a similar error by Johnston
forfeited the third chance. Then TIL
den, with two smashing drives, one
producing an error by Johnston and
the other going as a clean placement,
ended the struggle that had gone six
times to deuce.
Safely past this emergency, Tilden
faced the menace OF fresh rally by
Johnston in the third set. The Cali
fornian ran into a lead of al before
the champion settled down to his work
and ran through Ave straight games
with the loss of only single point in
each.
The titleholder now seemed to have
his rival on the run. Johnston 8
strength had waned rapidly, but he
gained a new store In the interval
before the next set, and carne out to
put up another great fight. Tilden,
apparently in the belief he had victory
within reach, let down in his game.
and before he could check himself
Johnston had swept into a lead, which
he held, winning the set and squaring
the match.
Johnston's Rally Is Futile.
Johnston put everything he had into
a desperate finish, but II was suffi-
cient only to give him two of the first
three games in the deciding set. The
crowd roared its encouragement to the
little Californian, but he had given
his last bit in courage and strokes.
He continued to take one more game
as Tilden, spurred on, came from be-
hind to take the lead, but he could not
stop the champions drive. Valiaptly
Johnston tried to check the stream of
shots that bombarded him from all
sides. that kept him running from side
to side, but in vain. In IL minutes
Tilden ended the struggle that had
taken two hours altogether. and
settled the question of his supremacy
for at least another year.

johnston. since his last national
championship victory over Tilden in
1919, has been closer to dethroninS
the champion than he was today.
Three years ago the Californian was
within few points of triumphing
after he had taken the first two sets.
Today he was far from having Tilden
that close to defeat, but he was three
times within n point of taking the sec
ond set and gaining an advantage,
which, with the impetus of his attack,
might have beaten down even Tilden'S
brilliant resources.
As it was, Tilden's coolneSS in this
crisis saved him and turned back
Johnstons greatest bid in a struggle
for points that had the eapacitg
crowd of 13 900 in the West Side club s
stadium on edge and breathless with
excitement.
Johnston Spurts Again.
This setback. heartbreakinG to John
ston at the time. might have un-
nerved any one but the plucky Cali
fornian. Instead of yielding. as it
seemed he would after Tilden had
swept through the third set, John
ston came back with another hurri-
cane squirt to win the fourth set and
square the match. He had the big
crowd again in an uproar as he gain
ed a lead in the final set, but his
strength was unequal TO the task
of keeping up the pace.
Tilden. again rising to the emer-
gency with startling flights of ten
mis-, called on his apparently mex
haustible store of reserve energy to
gain the victory. He was irresistible
In this final drive which eliminated
typically when he aced Johnston with
a terrific cannon-ball service shot for
the final point.
Tilden's attainment of his sixth
straight championship-givin him
permanent possession of his second
title trophy-leaves no doubt that he
still had full command of the genius
which has lifted him to an Anparallel-
ed place in tennisdom.
Tilden Is World Champion.
Tilden emerged from the forty
fourth annual tournament of. 1.-The
United States Lawn Tennis Associa-
ton not only the national title holder,
but the recognized champion of the
world For his victory was gained
in a field that included the leading
stars of the most important tennis
nations of the globe-France, Aus
tralia. Japan and Spain, besides this
country.
Johnston staked everything today
in what may prove to be his last
bid to overthrow Tilden. But Tilden,
even when the tide was going against
him. kept up the steady barrage that
finally spelled the downfall of his rival.

SENTENCED
To JAIL
Daughter Of Wealthy District
Parents Convicted of Gem
Theft in Baltimore

Mrs. Mabel Moore, daughter of
Robert Lyon, Of lyon. ConkIin
Co, $50 E street northwest today
was found guilty by the criminal
court in Baltimore on charges of
larceny after trust and given six
months in jail.
On December 8, Mrs. Moore is
alleged to have purchased $4,000
worth of diamonds from the jewelry
firm OF Butcher q Sons, of us
N. Carol street; Baltimore. purchas
ing them on the strength of her
fathers and mothers names.
She subsequently pawned and sold
the bulk. of the diamonds, the police
charge and went to California TO
enter the movies.
Robert s. Leech, her attorney, de
clared that the case would be car
ried to the Court of Appeals, and
Mrs. Moore was released on $1,000
bail to await the appeal hearing.
An effort to secure Mrs. Moore's
release was made by her father,
who told Judge Henry Duffy that
he would make full restitution.
Judge Duffy declared that the.
court would not accept the offer
but that the court would be dis
posed to leniency and consequently
assessed the minimum penalty.
