...Cochet's misplays, as much as Bernard's, cost the French team a long listless match with Vines & Gledhill, 16-14, 3-6, 4-6, 9-7, 6-2. Almost everyone expected, on the showing of the teams in the semifinals, that Van Ryn & Allison would reverse the beating they took from Vines & Gledhill in the Newport final last fortnight. Instead, Vines suddenly went to the very peak of his game, dominated the match completely, poured into court a stream of bullet serves, volleys at incredible angles, drives that caught Van Ryn & Allison ankle-high...
...match put them in the semi-finals against Ellsworth Vines & Keith Gledhill, Vines's best friend who he thinks should have been on the Davis Cup team. The other semifinalists were George Lott Jr. & Frank Shields and the defending champions, John Van Ryn & Wilmer Allison. It often happens, despite careful seeding, that the best match in a national tournament comes in the semi-finals and it happened last week, when Van Ryn & Allison played Lott & Shields. Lott is undoubtedly the ablest doubles player in the U. S. Van Ryn & Allison have been teamed so long that their games mesh...
...Carolyn Babcock was paired against Joan Ridley. She beat the English girl again in three long sets that took an hour and a half 4-6, 7-5, 6-3. On the other side of the draw, muscular Helen Jacobs had had one shaky afternoon against Marjorie Gladman Van Ryn, who interrupted the match frequently to inquire of press telegraphers about her husband, playing Ellsworth Vines at Newport (see below). Both Van Ryns lost. Two days later Helen Jacobs took the step penultimate to what she hoped would be her first U. S. championship by beating another British semifinalist...
...Henry Ellsworth Vines Jr.: two final matches in the Newport invitation tournament; 6-4, 6-3, 6-3 in the singles against his Davis Cup teammate Wilmer Allison; 6-8, 13-11, 8-6, 6-2 in the doubles, paired with Keith Gledhill, against Allison and John Van Ryn, U. S. champions. ¶ Fred Tomlin, professional trapshooter of Glassboro. N.
