Stoclier Wins From Wilson
Another pretty nntch for a time was that
between Vnux Wilson and P J Steelier.
Until lioys lut out brllllantl.v In the earlv
part nf the flr-t set the latter In particular,
showing the fastest drive yet dlsplnved b
nnv of the inntestRiild After having a
seemlngl.v safe lend Steelier faltered to
ward tho end of the llrst set. nnd Instead of
attacking tho bill fomented himself with
defending It, which tactics resulted In bis
dropping tho set to Wilson Tho latter was
now hilling with great soverlty. going Into
the lead at 2 to 1 in tho second set Steelier,
nt this point began hitting hard once 'more
nnd, regaining his confidence. Increased his
paie until ho had Wilson all at sea.
The latter did not seem to realise that he
was pei mlttlng his opponent to play nil of
his shots from his strongest side, the same
Ik Ing the best forehand drive I bavo ever
seen in the possesion of 11 voungstcr Prop
ping iitilv a point here nnd there Steelier
tan through ten successive games for the
set and match Pespllo the apparent de
clsiviness of tho finish of this match, it
exemplified the Importance of using the
head Had nung Wilson done so ho would
not have permltttd Steelier to take so mnnv
of his nhotfl on his forehand, and It Is quite
probable that this would have had a de
elded tendency to keep tho Central High
School boy from gaining confidence, which
ho did so successfully With a little more
experience, the bos will lenllze that when
ever one's opponent gets on 11 brllllnnt
streak It la always nccessarv to make him
take thn ball other than the manner in
whUh ho has been so successfullv accom
plishing their defeat, if It Is to be broken up.
