III. THIRD SCORING, OR THE EQUAL SERVICES GAME.

This scoring was invented by Mr. Eustace H. Miles.

In this way of scoring, every rally which is won counts as an ace to the winner.

A serves two services, one from each side of the court, according to either set of rules (see I [il or [ii]).

Then B serves two services, similarly; and so on, the players serving alternately until one of them has scored 15 aces.

N. B.—The first server, if Rule I (i) is chosen, /. c, if the service is to pitch (first bounce) into one of the back sections of the court, should only be allowed one service.

IV. FOURTH OR LAWN TENNIS SCORING.

A serves for one game, scoring as in lawn tennis, except that it is better to have "vantage-all" and then a single point to decide the game, than to have "deuce," "vantage," "deuce," "vantage," indefinitely.

B serves for the next game; and so on, until either A or B has scored the set of 6 games.

If "5 games all" is reached, it may be better to play "deuce and vantage games, but to have "vantage-all" if the players score 6 games all, and then to let a single game decide the set.
