FAULTLESS TENNIS
AT START
But Collapses After The
Second Set
(By "Veritas")
Wimbledon, June 26.
After playing faultless tennis for two sets on a court rendered heavy by torrential rains which had fallen 24- hours earlier, Jiro Yamagishi eliminated himself from the Wimbledon championship to-day, when opposed to Gene Mako, the new American "Hope".
It would be more accurate to any that Yamagishi font by 20, 2—0,! 0-2, 6-1, 6-2 than to aver that h was beaten by that score. The bel ter player, that in judged by standards of pure tenulk, font on, the day's dis- play.
But full credit must be given to Mako for a spirited fight against odds which included some curious umpiring decialone.
