CHEVY CHASE TENNIS
TOURNEY NEARS END
Dom and LittIefieId Winners in
Doubles Over Gr0SvenOr
and McCIung.

Three important matches were gotten
out of the way in the closed Chevy Chase
tennis tournament yesterday afternoon
when the semi-finals and finals of the
mems handicap doubles and the SEMI
finals of the mems handicap singles We're
decided.
The most interesting match OF the day.
although not the most important. was
that between Grosvenor and McClung
fminus 800. and Dom and Littlefield
minus one-haif 1o) in the semi-final
round of the doubles event, the last NAM
ed pair gaining the decision after three
fast sets had been played, 81, 6-3 and
rs. The handicaps placed these pairs
on an equal footing and excellent ten
mis- resulted. For the winners, Littlefeld,
a former Annapolis champion, played the
better game showing unusual speed and
being accurate in his placements. Dom
supported him in the most approved man.
ner and pulled off any number of re-
turns of what appeared to be impossible
shots. He was best at overhead play.
For the losers. Grosvenor put up the
best game, as McClung was badly off at
overhead play and lost point after point
for his side on account OF this weakness.
The winners of the match. Dom and
Littlefield. Immediately took on Du Bose
and Land (plux Y Is, for the finals,
which carried with it the title for the
year. The latter pair are two naval
constructors who have never played on
the Chevy Chase courts before, and who
received the benefit of too large handi-
cap. Yesterdays match, which they won
6-4, +6 and 6-3. was closer than has
usually been the case and the large hand
leap allowed them Is directly responsible,
as they play very strong game and
were not entitled to such a large one.
The other match played was the remain
ing one of the semi-ieta!s OF the men S
handicap singles between w. u. Wilcox
(minus 3O) and Lee McClung (mfnus 3d.
the latter winning after three sets had
been played, 6-3. 46 and 6-3. McClung
took the first set, which was the best of
the match, 6S. Both men appeared to
he about equal in it. McClung being more
fortunate in making the most points at
critical stages Of the game. His service
seemed to be much improved. although in
gaining more speed he has lost little in
accuracy.
This virtually ends the mems events, as
McClung is going to leave town this aft
ernoon for two-week absence and his
match in the final round with Cuthbert
Brown winner of the lower half, will not
be played until his return.
