first set, which Murray won with ap
parent ease. In the second set Will
lams went frequently to the net and
lost many points on errors, but im
proved greatly in the third set when
he had five to two games on his op

driving and clever returns turned the
tables and won the next three games,
tieir.g the score, and thereafter was
never headed..

ray played a much steadier game
than Williams throughout.

nament at Forest Hills next week.
