Employing his entire repertoire of strokes, knowledge of craft and subtlety in tactics, S. A. Rumjahn yesterday outplayed E. C, Fincher in the nut of the open singles tennis championship i to win the title in four sela, the scores reading, 6-2, 6-1, 1-6, 6-4.

Fineher, but a shadow of hits normal self, could do nothing.,lo withstand the splendidly directed attack of the Indian, and in con- erding the first two nets, lost all chances of achieving an ambition which has eluded him for the past |

ree years.

the

Rumjahn's stroke work was the best he has produced this year. He drove magnificently on both hands deeply to all corners of the court, keeping Fincher strictly on the defensive for three-fourths of the game, and following up his ground shots with accurate over- head smashes and well dirceted volleys. He completely routed to force Fincher's endeavours

him baseline. leaving

or entirely out of position.

Fincher, defeated on tactics, almast lost his head, and mitted many blunders. Even his chop and slice strokes went pleces and failed to remain effective defensive weapon.

He occasionally pulled out a nice looking passing shot in the third Rumjaha 19218 rush set, when enough to go up to the net on straightforward return, but he could not compare with the Indian' in the other phases of the game, his lobbing in particular being short and offering easy points.
