In the French tennis championship: Crawford was in great form. He toyed ; with his opponent. j The score does not indicate the. desperate fight F. Merlin (not the Davis Cup player) put up against : Perry. The Frenchman saved six i match points and Perry was fully ex- ' 1 MeGrath found the Polish player m • S brilliant form ,in the early stages. -,\fornicr would have been beaten had, i \e not accepted the advice of his felNw Australians and slowed his play : winning the last two sets with - thfe loss of only two games. 3 Mn-lin playing decisively, beat • ! Quist. vvho tried all he knew to get jiihe Frenchman out of position, but; ,! Merlin returned shots that were seem- '' iiißly imposijble. 1 Turnbull rrnde a brave show against 1 Boussus, but had "a piece of bad 3 ; luck when two games stood between 1 : him and victory The linesman re- ; | corded as good a ball from Boussus \! which flew beyond the baseline. This j : faulty decision gave \he critical eight.li, ! game to the Frenchman, who after-: ; wards retained the initiative. ; Miss Hartigan was down one set and behind 3-5 in the sec oral when she [ cleverly slowed the game and beat America's fifth ranking woman player. ■ | Details are:— ' Men's Singles Third Round ' ; .1.
