through only once in eight times while
Van Ryn lost his delivery three times.
The latter, however, was unbeatable in
the third set. Cochet dropped his
service four times, as did Borotra.
The players were late In taking the
courts, and spectators began q demon
stration Of impotence until diverted by
the arrival Of Alain Gerbault, round
the-world navigator. The French sailor,
just back from his globe encircling
trip in q 30-foot Sloop, received an ova-
ton.
Allison began serving in the FIRST set,
and the Americans captured the OPEN
ing game after q succession Of whirl-
wind rallies. All four players volleyed
so skillfully that the ball frequently did
not touch the ground until after a
half dozen exchanges. The American
pair broke through Borotras service to
win the second game. The Americans
won the first set, 6-l.
AllisOn's Delivery Is Too Much.
The crowd cheered the American
boys enthusiastically as they quickly
piled up big lead over the redoubtable
French team. They displayed not the
slightest fear of Cochet's rife shot vol
leys and broke through his service TO
lead at 81. Allison's delivery was too
much for the Frenchmen, who obtained
only one point as the Americans won
the fifth game.
Van Ryn and Allison took the last
two games of the set with astonishing
rapidity, completely upsetting the de-
lenses Of the Frenchmen. The point

Concentrate on Borotra.
The American collegians started the
second set without any let-up in the
terrific pace. They broke through
Cochet's service in the first game and
led at 20 when Allison's smashing de-
livery again prevailed over the best
that the Frenchman could offer In re-
turn.
The Americans began concentrat-
ing their offenseS against Borotra after
a few undesirable experiences with
Cochet's smashing returns. The Basque
was forced into many errors by low vol
leys that he tried to pick OF his shoe
tops. Borotra's service was effective in
the third game, but the challengers
forged into O 81 lead on Van Ryn's
delivery.

fifth game.
The Americans won the second set,

The French staged q big rally and
took four successive games to force the

as he checked the American rush for
the first time.
Borotra also was steadier and the
Frenchman made five games in row to
lead 6-5. Allison appeared upset by a
foot fault called on his service by Count
5alm Won HoogStraten, one Of the judges.
The Americans regained command in
the twelfth game, which they won to
square the count at 6-6, again concen-
trating their attack upon Rorotra. The
Basque was unsteady and Cochet, in
efforts to cover extra ground, also was
LED into errors. The Americans led at
rs as they broke through Cochet's
service for the third time in this set.
They pulled out the set on Allison's
service at 8-6.
