Marie Wagner and Mrs. Marshall Nc
Lean both former holders of the title.
won their places yesterday i'm the final
round Of the New Jersey State lawn ten
mis- championship tournament on the
courts Of the Morristown Field Club. at
Morristown. y. ]. OF the two Miss Wag
ner played the stronger and more con-
vincingly. In her semi-hnal match the
national indoor champion had as her OPP
ponent Miss Theresa r. kuser. the
sprightly young player from Trenton.
who. by persevering steadiness. managed
TO pluck set from the contest before
she yielded to Miss Wagner at SO, 6-3,
90
Mrs Mclean did not meet with the
same dashing and answering opposition
from Miss Edith NJ. Condit. The latter
was content to maintain position from
deep court From there she placed her
drives rather well, but with no great
amount of speed AS a result. all Mrs.
Mclean had 10 do was TO force the rallies
and win by the score Of 81, 60. AT the
close of this contest Mrs. Frederick
Schmtz. the referee. arranged that Miss
Wagner and Mrs. Mclean would meet

I'm the narrowing Of the field in the
women's doubles. as she also came into
the championship round with Miss Clare
Cassell as her partner. The two dis
played Iivelier. faster. and withal hard
or hit game than usual. Miss Cassell has
learned TO fairly pound the ball, and she
appeared TO take keen delight in so
doing. especially when directing her re-
turns 10 Mrs. Mclean. The other player
on the opposite side of the net was Miss
Edna Wildey. and with Mrs. Mclean she
put up a splendid and stubborn defence
Miss Wagner's alertness in finding the
spots TO shoot the ball through and the
smashing play of the pair at times helped
them 10 win at -. 81.
The other semi-hnal match was won by
Mrs. William H. Pouch and Miss Alberta
Weber who defeated Miss Helen kahle
and Mrs. Schmitz at s.. 6-3. both sets
