Each of the players contributed much to the exeltement of the game when first one and then the other rolled in a good shot.
C. G. Silva must be credited with much of his pair's victory but his partner was in the picture Just as much as he was: „
L. G. Silva sent in some smart backhand shots while Alves, after holding the upper hand up till the 13th head, Anally had to give in to a better pair.
Although the difference of the score was six shots the score does
not give a fair indication of the run of play.
