the college were hefcontestants Mr.. Hey
wood is by far the best man that the State
College. has yet sent to tournament. His
method of play was entirely up to date and
almost equal to that of Champion Dana. He
played coolly and skilfully throughout. and
made splendid fight against the long ex-
perience of his opponent in winning games,
which of course counts, for a good deal.
Dana won the first game, Haywood the
next. Then Dana took four straight, but
none of them came easy. Haywood began
to play better at this dangerous point, and
got three straight. Dana won the next and
the set-o to 4.
The next set was a splendid contest
throughout. 1t was nip and tuck all the
time and both men made many brilliant
plays. 1t was a. 'deuce'tset and the score
below indicates the five games that the
State College Sophomore put up against the
Bowdoin Senior and champion.
Mr.. Haywood has the making of a
champion in him, and as he has two more
years in college and this is Mr.. Dana's last
year, there are great expectations for him
in the future among State college men. OF
course, yesterdays contest did not decide
the championship and Haywood still has
chance for second place, if Dana holds the
championship. In case Haywood gets second
place, he will take to Orono for the first
time the cup that Bowdoin now holds, and
that was given two years ago by L. A.
Southland, Esq, of Boston, an alumni of the
State college. If Bowdoin holds second
place this year, it will be the third year she
has won that cup and it then becomes the
property of the college. Following is the
score:

The seconed event in the forenoon was
contest in singles between P. Dana, '96 of
Bowdoin, and Hilton, 96 of Bates.
The first set was close and was won by
Hilton, but P. Dana won the next two sets
easily. Both men are Sophomores. p. Dana
is very young player, but his playing was
SO brilliant that it created more applause
than any of the others. Following is the

Mr.. A. W. Tolman of Portland referred

In the afternoon there was a larger at

was only one match, because in the doubles
Smith and Randlette, of the State college,
forfeited to Tilton and Boothby, of Bates,
Pettigrew and partner. of Bates, forfeited to
Dana, '94 and Pickard of Bowdoin.
The one match was most interesting The
two Danas of Bowdoin who defeated their
opponents in the forenoon..were matched. The
veteran of '9i was too much for his younger
nd smaller antagonist of '96, but the playing
was contest throughout. Dana. '94 won
the first set-6to 2; Dana, '96, won the
second set-2 to 6. and Dana '94, won the
third set-6-3, and therefore is still in the
lead in the race for the championship.
Today there will be a great deal of play
ing, and it will be highly interesting also.
Among the events that will take place or be
forfeited are. in singles: Gibbs, M. S. c.;
versus Whitman of Colby and Pettigrew of
Bates versus Foss of Colby. In doubles,
Dana '96. and Fogg of Bowdoin will play
against Colby team. If they win they will
then be matched against Dana '94 and
Pickard, '94 of Bowdoin. This event will be
the liveliest of the tournament, probably.
The same teams have played together at
Bowdoin, and the two champions, (Pickard
was champion in doubles last year with
Pierce) have found that the under class
men are no mean antagonists; in fact are
quite likely to win games unless very care
fully prevented. Dana, "a of Bowdoin, has
been playing unusually well at the college
this spring. Only two men have been able
to win even one game from him. Those two
were Pickard, who has won eight games,
and P. Dana, who has won four
