On many occasions play was ceedingly interesting. Sander tacked consistently all the time and at one stage in the second set when be wiped off a two game deficit to lead 3-2, his concentrated severity appeared to have upset the normal rythm of Goldman's game.

At this stage the former holder of the title was making innumer-

with drives on both hands which mu XIII8IRIGEILE were chipping up the chalk, of so

fine a length were they.

CHANGED TACTICS

Goldman, however, although giv- ing the impression of weariness, had lots of fight still left in him. He shortened his length and occa- sionally whipping across a sizzling crosscourt forehand drive, gener- ally hitting the ball much earlier and giving his opponent far less time in which to make his strokes, once again assumed the ascendency and thereafter produced his best foren to sweep the gallant Sander off the court in the last set, which he took at 6-1 after leading 5-0

Sander kept an excellent length with his driving throughout and put all the force he had behind all his strokes. Nevertheless, despite this energy, he made very little pace, either because of the top-spin he imparted or because of faulty timing, I couldn't quite make up my mind which it was.

The Army were the superior team in the first half and had the Navy on the defence for a long time, but in the second-half, the Navy for- wards settled down and were seen Hong in many combined movements.

PLAYER WITH FUTURE He is undoubtedly a player who will make his mark here as he has all the other attributes of a champion. Goldman was not as fast as of yore but his anticipation was a de- light to watch. Very rarely did he give the impression of hurry and if he did make a number of errors 10.00 which had no part in his game of 10.04 a few years ago, that was probably 10.12 due more to lack of practice than 10.32 anything else.
