Tennis Tournament I FOREST HILLS. N.Y.. Aug. 29- (AP) -- Lightning knocked a. six- toot concrete eagle off the top of the tennis stadium today a matter of minutes after Althea Gibson, 23- year-old Negro girl from New York city, had come within an ace or two of striking the tennis world speechless. i Miss Gibson, the first of her race ever to play in the title meet, was leading blonde Louise Brough of Beverly Hills, the reigning Wimble- don queen. 7-6, in the third and deciding set when nature took a hand. The skies opened like a sluice gate for some 15 minutes. As 6,000 fans huddled under the stands, a vivid bolt cut one of the huge ornamental birds cleanly from its pedestal and uttered it on the walkway 50 f (below. No one was injured. But if the tall Miss Gibson con- tinues to play tomorrow as she was playing just before the storm hit. she will knock the national wom- en's tennis picture into pieces. Playing only her fourth match on grass. and nervous. the girl from Florida A. and M. dropped the first set to her famous opponent", I-6 before 1,500 fans in the grand- stand court. She trailed 2-:( in the second set, and then she began banging her backhand with the same speed as her fine forehand. She ran it out at 6-3 as the crowd plauded. Miss Brqugh looked a determin- ed woman as she slammed her way to a 4-1 lead in the third set. some of the fans started to leave but Miss Gibson broke service as she mcved up to 6-5. squared it at 5-5 with another break and then led 6-5 and 7-6. That is how they will resume play at 12:45 P.M. lE.D.'I. tomormw, with Miss Brough serving. Whatever the e. i i outcome. it is clear that another tennis star has joined the women's flrmament. Within another year. at the latest. Miss Gibson probably, will have moved high into the ranking of the U 5. first lt).'
