A Few Stayed at Home to Play
in the Local Courts
Yesterday.
Some Good Games Put UP by KILL
gallon, the Denver Champion.
Future Events.

While many of the handball enthusiasts
were at the Ocean View coursing matches,
the yacht races or on the several picnics
which marked yesterdays holiday, there
were a sufficient number left behind to put
up some good games in the various courts
Killgallon, the Denver player, put in an
appearance at McManus court in the
morning, and in the afternoon he played a
couple of games in the Occidental court.
KiIlgallon's tossing is his strongest point,
particularly hrs service into the left court.
He has a beautiful stroke with his right
hand, but is noticeably weak in COMPARE
son, with his left. He never uses his left,
however, unless he cannot help it. He is
booked to play at the San Francisco court
next Sunday with ]. McKevlin against
Harlowe and Pat Kelly, and also at Nc
Manus' court with Jim Wren against R.
Lehman and j. Feeney.
Games were iiveliest yesterday at Nc
Manus' court. The best games of the day
were between Pennoyer and Nelson against
Feeney and Moroney. Pennoyer is one of
the old-time players, and his face has been
a familiar one in the brick-walled court for
several years. He has a clean, swift right
hand, and few of the local men have bet
ter left. He and Nelson, who is compar-
paratively recent player, defeated Feeney
and Moroney in four games by scores of
same court Terry McManus and J. Lynch
defeated H. Batzner and ii. McKenna by
2l-19 and 21-20.
Owen Doherty and Charles Long de-
feated B. Hughes and Ed McGlade by 21-
Is and 21-l4, and James McGuinn and
Thomas Farrell defeated NJ. Morton and
NJ. Leahy by 21-17 and 21-18.
Killgallon and Dillon played Feeney
and Lehman by 81 to 10 and u to 49, The
losing team is the same one which will
play Killgallon and Wren next Sunday,
and in view of the close games PLAYED
yesterday speculation is rife as to who will
win although Killgallon and Wren are
generally expected to carry off the honors
At the Occidental court T. f. Bonnet
and [. Fennissey defeated Killgallon and
J. French by a score of 21-17, 18-21 and
21-19, after Killgallon and Fennissey had
easily defeated Bonnet and French
c. Balling defeated Ben Clements bv
21-11, l0-21 and 21-16. P. H. Gansel
and Charles Bauer defeated A. Westerfeld
and IL. Schneider by 21-14, 1921 and
21-17. II. Stanley defeated Ben Clements
laney defeated M. Solan by 21-16 and
21-13 W. Jacobs and P. f. Mccormick
defeated p. II. Vaughn and 2. Sullivan by
2l-14 and 2l-19. Dr. Ed E. Hill defeated
w. Coonan by 21-19 and 2l-11.
AS finish to the day at the Occidental
court DR.. L. j. Greedy tried to play rackets
with I. Clements and B. Collins and was
easily defeated.
Terry McManus and George Ackerson
are in active training for their match,
which will be played at the Union court on
June 9.
At the San Francisco court next Sunday
John Jones, the doughty little local cham
plon, Will play Atchison and Lawless, and
hot game is expected.
On Wednesday evening next, at the Occi-
dental court, J. G. Nealon and John Pur-
cell will play I. F. Bonnet and J. Fen
nissey.
