TO-DAY'S MATCHES
Tam Yoo Fong showed up to even better advantage yesterday against Goldman than against Yew Man The Kit in the previous round. newcomers again demonstrated his ability to break up his opponent's game, as Goldman after a stern re- sistance in the opening set cracked up badly in the second to enable Tam to win in straight sets. The first get produced a series ofIu snappy forehand driving duel, at which both proved to be in form, although the Chinese place his shots, which had plenty of sting, more cleverly and consistently. Goldman's efforts to force the pace did not met with success, as Tam was able to retaliate with impunity, but when the score renobed 4-8 in the first set, the former brought his. tournament experience to bear, by bleverly drawing his opponent to overhit an obvious weakness of the newcomer. Goldman, at this stage nise effected some good netplay with the result that he took the load at 5-4. An exciting struggle followed, but at 6-all Thm: forged ahead to take the first set.
Goldman seemed upset at this reverse and attempted to outplay Tam nt the net, but the Chiness passed him repeatedly in the first three games of the second set by. a barrage of pretty drives, The latter maintained his pressure...and• did not encounter much resistanco from his opponent, who only took one game,
