burn and washington Golf and Coun-
try Club teams will take place on the

Princeton certainly upset the dope
in its match with the Racquet Club
in the Suburban Tennis League last
Saturday, when it took six out of
seven matches and went in the lead In
the club standing. Lou" Doyle's
team Is now in front by one full
game. This lead is small but IL the
Princeton representatives play their
remaining matches like they did in
the one against the Racquet Club,
they should win rather handily.
Lee Crandall, jr., who recently lost
out to DR.. ]. r. DeFarges in the Will
iams-Henry event at Bannockburn
after winning the event last year. will
be in Washington for the remainder
of the season and will no doubt figure
prominently in coming club events.
Crandall usually spends the summer
and fall out of town. but expects to
be here this year and to spend a
great deal of time on the links,
The last match of the Washington
Tennis Association schedule will be
played next Saturday between Chevy
Chase and Dumbarton. Representa-
tives of the two clubs will draw lots
to see on which courts the match
will be played. This match is of no
importance in the team-standing, as
Columbia, with five wins and only
one defeat, is an easy winner. Chevy
Chase Is sure of second place, as il
has won two and lost three matches,
while Dumbarton has a single win to
its credit and four losses. Even should
the latter win the coming match, 1t
cannot get out of last place.
Although last Sundays professional

was an exceptionally interesting one.
the quality of golf shown was not
as high as was expected of the four
local paid players" OF the eighteen
holes, low score for four of them was
over par figures. ten holes were won
in par. while in only four holes was
''the general beaten. Spencer, who,
incidentally, was playing his first
round over the Virginia course. sur
prised the gallery by playing the best
game. OF the nine holes which were
not halved, the Town and Country
Club player won four OF them. Nc
Leod captured two, Beckett one. and
Burgress one. while another was won
by Mcleod and Beckett, who were
playing on the same side. The only
exceptional golf shown was on No. II,
which Burgess won. The Chevy Chase
player ran his approach putt from the
outside edge of the green to within
an inen OF the hole and made an easy
