interest was shown by the large gathering

doubles
The club was entertained last Monday
night in it's regular monthly business meet
ing at the home OF DIR, Cobey, president,

cellent standing of the club is due largely to
the efforts of Its president.

conditions were perfect for the game, and

The tennis tournament for the champion

Washington for several years, will probably

would boom the game here very much.
One Of the arguments the local people ad-

more of a southern city than Washington.

FIVE SENSATIONAL SETS.
Ward and Wright Defeat Alexander

NEW YORK, June Toward and Wright.
the national champions in lawn tennis dou
bles and the pair Of the challenging Ameri-
can team, won the final contest today on
the turf of the Crescent Athletic Club at
Bay Ridge. They defeated Alexander and
Hackett, the Princeton-Yale combina don,
after five fast and sensational sets, the
score being SO, Ga 6-3, 2-6 and o.
Only the splendid team work of the cham
pions saved them from defeat, as Alexander
and Hackett played a rapid volley!ng game
that was unusually strong and aggressive.
Wards lobbs were poor at the start, and
the Princeton-Yale pair took advantage of
every short ball, killing and smashing for
the points, that they kept on even terms
with their opponents. On the champions
side of the net Wright played a faultless
game, and at the end his support of Ward
brought about the final victory.
Wright won the first prize of the tourna-
ment in the singles he did not meet with
defeat, and Ward and Wright took the
prize for doubles also with a clean score.

Messrs. A. Y. Leech and T. r. Heath against
F. R. Proctor and l. /. Doyle. The match
went to the latter pair by scores Of 6-3.
8-a 8-3. OF the entire tournament this
match was possibly the most interesting.
Individual and team work was excellent,
and where advantage existed 1t was on ac-
count Of good plays and not errors. All
sorts Of tricks Of the game were resorted
to in order to win. from the high lob, which
defied the opponent at the net. to the hard
driven placed ball, carrying the back line
man from side to side in quick succession.
Heath's smash at the net was sure point
for his side. This coupled with Leech's
skillful service, kept their opponents ever
witchful and anxious. Proctor's placed
ball at the net made up In accuracy what 1t
lacked in excessive speed, and Offset the
strength of his opponents deliveries. HIS
partner WAS almost everywhere he was
not expected, and spoiled a lot of pies that
looked like sure things for the other side.
1t is expected that several members of the
club will enter the coming District cham
pionship tournament, and will no doubt
make a good showing.

B. Hoge after having puzzled several of
the clubs best players into submission.
