head. reaching The final bracket by VIC
tories in the, semi-fnal round yesterday.
In the upper half Moore continued his
good work by winning from Cuthbert
Brown in a very closely contested match.
I63 and 10-S, while Moorhead had little
or no trouble in coming out ahead In the
lower half with Dudley Morgan as his
opponent. :.
The Brown-AIoore match was easily the
best Of the day, both men showing some
brilliant tennis. Moore has q strong
serve, covers lots of ground, and is very
| good overhead, but he is somewhat er-
| ratio in that he is liable to make an ex-
ceptional shot and then follow 1t up
with poor one. This is undoubtedly
due to his lack Of tou. nament practice,
| as, In his desire to win. he gets careless.
Brown plays steady game, and also
|;covers the court well, and had he won
the second SET he probably would have
| won the match, he is a veteran at
| the game, and was improving all the
time. Both players we're within q
point of the set several times before
1t was finally won.
| In the handicap event. J. H. Hopkins
| (minus 15} and c. Harding, jr. (minus
800 finished an interesting go in the
| first roHHn;. the former winning a<ler
| three E3H sets, "a 4-6 and 11-9.
| This clnatsh, calling. for forty-two
games, sdsxH hardly have been much
closer ,&Ssording to the handicap.
| Harding had to concede his opponent
fifteen points. in each game, and Hop
opener was a deuce set, and it was
that Hopkins was able. to4take 1t. The
second went to Harding, and when the
third was started 1T could easily be
seen that this deciding one would be
| for blood" After deuce was reached
| Hopkins invariably took the odd game,
| only to lose the next and tie things
| up again, and it was not until the
| eighteenth game that he was able to
4 win two in, succession.
Several matches IN the women's event

the best of this class. This victory
