In the third set the German player became more aggressive, risking excussions to the net whenever a chance came, He also served extremely well, scoring a number of outright aces, By these methods he won the third set in relatively short time by a score of 6-1.
In the fourth set, Pallada made supreme efforts, winning many long rallies by his steady driving and capturing the set 6-3.
The fifth set was an extremely long deuce affair with many long rallies. The German finally won 12-10 and the first point for Germany.
As it is regarded as virtually certain that Germany's No. 1 man, Henner Henkel, will win his second singles match tomorrow when he will meet Pallada, the doubles match which will be played today will probably be the decisive match of the European zone finals.—Trans-Ocean.
