The Rumjahn's, possibly a little out of practice, could never reach the same heights as they attain in subduing local opponents, but they displayed their usual courage and pertinacity, and were at their best in the third set.
LESSONS OF THE MATCH.
The match demonstrated once again, the point I stressed in the, Telegraph on Saturday. Inst, of the wonderful value to our local play- ers of contact on the court with ex- ponents of the Andrew's calibre. The Rumjahns and Fincher.could not help but gain now and im portant ideas in many phases of the game, and if these lessons are reflected in their future play, then we shall seo an improvement in all three players..
