Many Youthful Tennis Experts Engage
I'm a Doubles Tournament.

The third of series of handicap
doubles tournaments for the Managers
trophy was played by the boys of the
Golden Gate Junior Tennis Club on the
park courts yesterday. Miles McLough-
lin and Robert Strachan, the most
heavily handicapped team. won rather
easily They played from 10 40 behind
scratch and did not lose set. Their
hardest match was with Harold Getz
and L. Levinson, the cup holders. The
latter annexed the first and second
tournaments and made a strong bid for
the third, but Mclaughlin and Strachan,
despite the odds, proved too strong for
them They won two straight sets,
both of which were close.
Sixteen teams participated in the
tournament, and although many. of the
matches We're won in straight sets they
were close and interesting. The vic
tory of Mclaughlin and Strachan was
largely due to the efforts of the former.

organization of the club, and although
heavily handicapped usually wins about
as he pleases.
