Score on Indoor Courts.

Miss Nora Iselin and Mrs Barger-Wallach, OF
Newport, won the doubles and the latter the
singles in the women's intercity indoor lawn
tennis championship tournament the canvas
covered courts Of the ST. Nicholas Rink, 66th
street. near Columbus avenue, yesterday.
The singles title was won by Mrs. Barger-
Walach in the opening session of the day. She
played a remarkable match, similar to those
which carried her through the national cham
pionship last season on the court at Wissahlckon
Heights, Philadelphia, where she finished as
runner-up to Miss Helen Romans, In this con-
test Miss Emily Scott. representing this city
opposed Mrs. Barger-W allach, but, despite
splendid racquet work in the final set, lost at
Sc. 70.
Miss Nora Iselin and Mrs. Barger-Wallacn
won the doubles by defeating the Philadelphia
pair, Miss Phyllis Green and her sister. Miss
Marjory Green. by the score of So, Ga
During the singles contest Miss Scott vainly
attempted to Outplay her opponent by rapid
volleying at the net Only the wonderfully
placed drives of Mrs. Barger- Wallach caused
her TO successfully bring of this set after the
game had twice touched at deuce. MIS- BaTSer-
WaIach won the first game Of the second set
on her service But Miss Scott made a dazzling
squirt, and, by some spectacular smashing and
driving, fairly rOmped away from her opponent
in the next five games Despite the score OF hne
games to one against her, Mrs. BarGer- w allach
never wavered in her steady returns of the ball,
and, settling down. won six straight games and
the set.
In the final round of the doubles Miss Iselin
again distinguished herself. She cut her cross
court shots off so sharply that the Philadelphia
girls never had a fair chance al a return. Both
sets We're played at a lively pace. but the New
porters were much too swift for the Philadel-
phans. and won, although by close scores.
SIX teams We're drawn for the mixed doubles
tournament. which viii begin this afternoon.

New Haven. April l2.-Captain Biglow Of tho
Yale football eleven has ordered the candidates
for the team TO report for spring practice on
Monday.
William H. C'Pa'D Corbin. the old centre rush,.
came out strongly to-day in favor of spring prac-
tice as necessity. in view of the new code. He
said. in part:
The game played last fall called for much
larger amount Of running than. in previous years
This requisite in the condition of the team will be
very important in the future and every candidate
should train If possible for the greater part OF the
spring.
Accuracy in place kicking and drop Kicking will
be much more necessary for a successful team
than heretofore, account Of the difficulty al
tached to making touchdown under the present
rules. The former should be attempted by all men
for the line, as well the back field and many
developed as possible.
