GORDON IS DEFEATED
Gore Beats Chevy Chase
Champion in Mems Singles.
SHOWING CAUSES SURPRISE
Splendid Progress Made in Clubs
Tourney-Play to Be Re
sumed Tomorrow.

Probably no other Chevy Chase tennis
event has been run off with such speed
as this years. which is being played
on the clubs courts, Harold l.. Doyle
having gone all the way through to
the seiLi-iina round of the mems sin
giles event. The brand OF tennis shown,
too. has been exceptional and all things
being considered the event will at
least hold its own by comparison with
those Of previous years.
Friday, the opening day, was devoted
20 the mems singles event only. but
yesterday mems doubles and wome n S
singles also were on the card and
good matches in all three classes were
played.
In the mems singles Albert j. Gore
sprung what probably will be one Of
the greatest surprises of the year when
he defeated Spencer Gordon. two out
of three hard sets. SIS, 6-3 and SIS.
To those who are familiar with Cores
game and nave watched his work he
has been underrated. but the general
opinion has been for years that Gordon
could beat him any time they met But
the defeat Of the Chevy Chase player
was no fuke and Gore deserves great
credit. Gordon started off like a win
ner, taking the first two games of the
set. but Gore overlook him at the
eighth game. making the score fall
AT the twelfth game they were still
on even terms. when Gore rallied and
by some exceptional work took the next
two games, which gave him the set. In
the last game Gordon scored the first
three points only 10 lose the next five
Gore Hangs on Well.
The second set went to Gordon. who
appeared to much better advantage
than his opponent. and most OF the gall
lery thought that this was the begin
ming of the end, but Gore showed that
he had plenty of nerve and plenty Of
strength IN reserve by taking the third
and deciding one after fourteen OF the
hardest kind of games. At the eighth
game. he had the small end Of a 5-3
score. but he managed to make it sail
by two wins. As in the first set, Cor
lose out. when he was beaten the next
three. The card was as follows:

In the mems doubles. Shannon and
Heaton received a flying start, and
have reached the fourth round by draw
ing bye. beating Stanley and Miller
III the second round and getting the
best of Simmons and Taylor in round g
Miss Elizabeth Bryan won the most
Interesting match in the women's sin
giles. when she beat Mrs. Gardner Bell
in three hard fought sets, IS. 10
and Cd. After losing the second set,
she seemed to improve, and. although
the match was close throughout she
was just enough better to get the de
cision.
