Surprises come IN tennis rs we'll as
in any other athletic events, and to
the devotees or tennis real surprise 1
came yesterday afternoon at the
Moana courts when Alan Lowrey and
8. Kennedy defeated Billy Hogs and
Billy Warren in the first round OF
the mems doubles. .,..... -.
The winners should feel unusually
happy today, as not one person could |
be found yesterday who figured that
they would win from the favofites.
There were many who. stated that
they expected a hard match, but none
were brave enough to make a direct
prediction. With the exception OF
the first period in the second set the |
winners outplayed Hoogs and Warreni
throughout. 5. .....
EoWrey stars In Play.
Alan Lowrey played a sensational
game throughout and his hard shots
really earned the victory. His game
of yesterday was better than he has
exhibited before in the local tourra;j
ment. Dashing back and forth across,
the courts he made pretty returns and
his audacity in playing his shots drew
much applause from those who had |
gathered 10 witness the match.
Hogs played close to his usual |
standard, but Warren was on .his1
game and failed to return the hard
shots of his opponents. He made a |
number Of cuts and his general stand
ard Of play was far below his usual.
Lowrey and Hoogs we're thel
stars of the day, although s. KEN
needy made O number OF good shots, |
and with the exception Of the first
few games In the second set played
fairly steady tennis. e.. !
o'Dowda and Llttiejohn Win. /
O'Dowda and Littlejohn' had no !
trouble in winning from Waterhouse,I
and Norton, taking the match inJ
straight sets, winning every game OF |
the match. These two players played |
sterling tennis yesterday, but they |
will be forced to meet Castle and Elk
lund this afternoon in the semi-l
finals and hardly expect to win
against the partners who are picked
to win the doubles title. = ~. /
Dillingham; and Castle captured /
their match from Savage and Steere |
at the Pacific courts aud will meet |
Lowrey and Kennedy this afterneond
In the semi!finals. Earlier in the aft.
ernoon the ladies will begin the play |
in the first round OF the doubles at |
