PLAY AT FOREST HILLS TOURNEY WINS FOR AUSTRALIANS (Recd This Day, 10.25 a.m.) NEW YORK, September 11. In the American Lawn Tennis Championships at Forest Hills, A. K. Quist (Australian) Beat Ballagh, 3/6, 6/3, 6/4, 6/3, H. Hopman (Australia) beat Cooke 6/2. 4'6. 6/4, 10/8. In the women’s singles Miss T. Coyne (Australia), beat Miss Hirach, 6/1, 6/0. Ballagh's tremendous service troubled Quist in the first set. but thereafter, although Quist still took his opponent’s devilery with difficulty, Ballagh’s extreme weakness on the backhand simply gave him no chance against the Australian. Cooke’s chief equipment is a perfect backhand and this accounted principally for Hopman’s difficulties with him, resulting in the loss of the second set and a real contest of strength in the fourth.
