He took the. initiative at the start and. though lie could not get going smoothly at first and Johnson piled up a lead of five games to three in rapid the youngsters never gave up, but only fought the harder. Finally he began to reach the net successfully to volley Johnson's remarkably ac curate sideline passing shots and to l kill the local contender's lobs. And how that yellow-haired youg ster did cover the court. lie was here, there, everywhere. lie took them forehand, backhand and full hand with equal case.
