in the fourth set. COchet got the
upper hand at last. but not with
any certainty. He came to the net
on the vol1eys and by crashing
through with telling placements ran
off four games, to lead at 40 be-
fore Hunter awoke. The American
became fully aroused after Cochet
had won his lead to 81, and then
came that rally which will live for
ever in the memories of those who
saw it. For pure courage and
gameness no one ever played before
as Hunter played in a match or
similar Importance, and 1t was des-
tiny and destiny alone that pre-
vented the American from coming
through to victory. Fate should
have treated such a courageous one
more kindly.
Cochet takes the title back to

might be able to afford the !oSs OF
one game in three to the Reds and
one in four to the Cubs, provide
they know they will beat the
Cardinals in the big series. How
ever, they don't know anything in
advance, except that ALL remaining
games are with staunch w-s-ern
clubs, from whom they have won
thirty-eight and to whom they have
lost thirty-seven this season. Some
how. that kind Of a past hardly
creates any confidence at all in a
ten-out. of-twelve future.
Much Of resident hope is
vested in the Cardinal-Giant
series late this week, because
New York has won eleven out
Of eighteen from the league
leaders. including five straight
during their last two series.
This means something but not
much.
With clubs as evenly balanced
az this pair it will be expecting

10 repeat their performance in ST.
Louis last month and win three
straight this week and take the
final game between the teams on
