ONLY nine of these were but two pitchers

Another good match in the singles was
when Harold E Doyle defeated the
second man on the Baltimore team, Clar-
ence Fisher, 60, 2-6 and 7-5. Doyle put
up his usual brilliant game, showing lots
OF speed and being able to place the ball
just about where he wanted to. His op-
ponent also put up strong game and
the match attracted lots of attention.
The local man won the first set, e. and
lost the second by the same score The
third found both men playing their best
game and some unusually fast tennis
was shown, twelve hard games being
necessary before the Washington man
was finally able to gain the decision.

first time this year in competition, and
he did well, taking an interesting match

don was able to take the necessary con-
secutive games to give him the victory.
About the closest match of the day was

WINS 1OOUT OF IL MATCHES
Frederick Colston Beats Connie
Doyle in Feature Battle Of
the Day.

A large and enthusiastic gallery was
on hand at the Chevy Chase Club when
the first of the fnter-city tennis
matches was decided yesterday after
noon. Washington Overwhelmingly de-
feating the Monumental city repre-
sentatives by winning ten out or the
twelve matches played. While q VIC
tory, for the local men did not come
as any surprise. yet the most sanguine
did not look for such a one-sided
score. The local men showed up
strongest In the doubles. as they cap
tured every match. In the singles,
they took six out of the eight played.
The feature match of the day was, of
course, that between Conrad B. Doyle
and Frederick w. Colston of Balti-.
more. the latter winning, 6-S. 81
and 60. Colston is one Of the best
PLAYERS in the United States. being
ranked among the first ten, and hav-
ing reached the finals of the national
championship tournament at Newport
in 1910 Doyle is the local lad who
has been having things his own way
around these parts for years, and he
needs no Introduction.
Throughout this match great speed
was shown by both men. Colston play
ed an almost perfect game. being able
to place the ball to nicely without
experiencing the slightest let-up in
his speed He had beautiful stroke,
was equally strong with his fore and
back hand, and was splendidly strong
and severe at overhead play. Doyle
was every bit speedy and if any
thing his service mad little more
sting to 1T, he managing to get his
first ball over frequently for clean
hard as his first. He covered the
court well, but was not quite as steady
in critical places his opponent. He
lost any number of points which de-
which either went out of the court or
into the net.
Colston opened the tournament by TAX
ing the first set Doyle could not seem
to get started. losing five out of the
first six games. He took the seventh
and eighth, but lost the ninth. which
carried with it the decision for this SET
The second set was the best of the
three. the local player having found
himself, and being at his best After
four, making the score fl. At this
stage of the game his admirers began
claiming a victory. but Colston by bril-
liant work took four out OF the next
five, and looked to have struck win
ming streak which could not be stopped.
Doyle managed to check him just in
time by taking the next two games, one
Of which was a deuce one, which Colston
lost by drive which went out but by
few inches.
In the third set the men divided the
first four games. and with the score at
two all, the visitor gave one of the
finest exhibitions Of the game ever
shown on the club courts, taking the
next four by sheer force, and outplay-
ing the local crack at every angle of
the game, and winning every point on
merit alone. He was given a rousing
cheer at its conclusion. The card for
