At Southampton, New York, Davis (San Francisco) defeated Brookes (Austi/lia) in the semi-finals for the Meadow I Club's Cup; A COMING STAB. Willis Davis, a six-footer from the ■University of California, who defeated P. M. Davson, the English National covered court champion 6—2, 5—7, 2—6, 6—2, and S—2, has a drastic servioe that compares favourably with the deliveries of any rival in the tournament (says tlio "Sportsman," commenting on tho form at one of the recent English tennis tourneys). One shrewd observer thinks the American good enough for anybody. This elongated athlete from tho Pacific Coast, with all th« drives and a pross-court volley Shot, like an Australian, is a difficult problem.
