Sent. 7 m It was with good many qualms that the United States Lawn Tennis association decided to go through with its second wartime championship tourna ment. At the conclusion it was agreed that the only thing really wrong with the event was the finish of the most important maicn. Limited to six days and with fields only half their usual size. the tournament produced brand of tennis after the first few rounds that didn't suffer too much by comparison with or. dinary standards. The end, however, was marred when Jack Kramer, tha Los An geles coast guardsman, virtually collapsed under the double stress of heat and illness and Lieut. Joe Hunt of the navy went on to a 6-3, 0-8, 10-8. 8-0 triumDh in the men's singles final. Kramer suffered an attack of intestinal flu a few days ago and lost 20 pounds. He apol ogized afterwards for "fluffing out" but for three sets it was anybody's match and Hunt might have won even if Jack had been at top form. The titles In the other divis ions were decided entirely ac cording to form. On Sunday Paulino Betz of Los Angeles won the women's title for the second year and Kramer and Parker took the men's doubles crown. Yesterday, Louise Brough of Beverly Hills, Calif., singles runner-up, and Margaret Os borne of San Francisco teamed to win the women's doubles from Miss Betz and Doris Hart. Miss Osborne then teamed with Tal- bert to beat Miss Betz and Se gura In the mixed doubles final.
