Buckily for me, her driving today
was little too forceful, and gave
me many points. Miss Browne
does what so few women players do,
even today. She comes up to the
net at the right time, and her re.
coyeries and those back-hand, cross.
court shots-oh, there weressome Of
them / did not like bit, I assure
you.
1 hope we shall meet again, for
should hate to bid good-by to
such a great player and great
spottswoman.
The great match of the day and
the game which thrilled everyone ia
the crowd around the center court,
the event which seems to come out
of the skies and kept the tea tents
empty, was that between Vincent
Richards, brilliant young American,
and my own countrymen, Cochet.
Rightly, think, it was looked
upon as having a great bearing
on the championship itself. Who
ever Of these great players won,
he must go far. That Coclaet viii,
is, in my opinion, certain. Now
am not surprised, because he
was i'm extraordinary form when
he played in Paris lately.
It was briIliance opposed to bril-
lance with battle ever moving.
Both are always ready to go In,
to do and dare, but here was what
you call it-the rub. Here was,
what made the match just bubble
with interest. Both were brilliant
and daring voIleyers, but both
were players of perfect passing
shots as well. No ordinary player
is going to volley up to Cochet or
Richards. He will be passed. That
is certain.
There is no good In stepping back,
either, for then he is certain to be
volIeyed. -
What would happen. then when
these two champions at both games
met? l am not quite sure what
happened, because there was so
much of it and it all happened so
quickly. At the first, perhaps.
Cochet who was being outplayed
was doing as he Salways does
taking the measure Of his opponent.
He went up, was passed. He stayed
back and smashing volleys We're
put miles out of his reach.
But he was doing one thing.
He was taking that cannon ball

service. There was but the
smallest fraction Of D second
between the sI1acIx-smack Of the
ball ON the ground and the
racquet, but the ball went back.
Then, I. knew that Cochet was at
top form. His eye was sure. But
ever more surely he began to gov
ern the game. He chose the right
shot on which to 80 UP and he
went up, and he was not passed.
I Some of Richards recoVeries were
just as wonderful. Thers cannot
be another player in the world who
could have achieved many Of them.
His very .brilIiance heat him At
times, though, before having
brought off a desperate chance he
would rest content, while Coehet
plodded on--not from the hack line

MISUNDERSTANDING the filing Of
a restraining action in the state u
preme court to obtain a decision as
to the extent Of the authority Of the
state board of examiners over the mill
and a half special state levy for the
states higher educational institutions,
discussion among state officials has
turned TO the means which will be
taken by the attorney generals office
in combating the action.
The complaint, which will be heard
January IS, seeks a declaration from
the court to the effect that the en-
tire proceeds of the special levy shall
be devoted to the use Of the four
teaching units of the University Of
Montana. It suggests that the ex-
penses Of the experiment stations and
extension work now carried on through
