youth when Alrick II. Man. jr., the lead
err OF the Yale forces, won his place In
the seml-hnal round of the New York
State championship tournament on the
courts OF the Crescent Athletic Club, at
Bay Ridge, yesterday. In the same man
ner the open brackets in the fifth round
were filed, Frederick c. Inman. the for
ue- holder Of the title S. Howard Voshell
and Frederick c. Baggs coming through
as the vctors.
The success Of the starting OF the dou-
bes was literally dampened by the i've
ly little shower that drenched the courts
just at the hour Of beginning play. AS
consequence there was a sort Of desul-
tory attempt TO push the event along
bit. II was a scattered lot Of competi-
tons. however. with no attempt TO keep
the lines Of the rounds uniform. and this
resulted in c. Frederick Watson, jr.. and
Lyle f. Mahan arriving in the round be-
fore the semi-fnal. while eight matches
remain unplayed in the first round and
nine in the second and seven In the third.
