MARTIN BEATS
DARK HORSE
Belfield Tennis Player Puts
Californian Out of
Running
OTHER GOOD MATCHES
By PAUL PREP

II was a tired but happy bunch that
sat down to partake of the dinner
rendered by the Cynwyd Club to the
tennis players participating In the an
nual mems singles and doubles cham
pionship Of eastern Pennsylvania last
evening in the clubs dining hall.
why shouldn't they be joyous? 1t
was true some Of them had fallen by the
wayside in the preliminary round. But
weren't they and the others to have
fine meal and hadn't. one Of the un-
known dark horses" or something OF
the tourney been eliminated from fur
ther play?
The dark horse referred to in the
above Is Ensign whelan. OF California.
now stationed at the Philadelphia Navy
Yard. When whelan appeared at the
Cynwyd Club yesterday with his fan
neIs and racquet he virtually was un-
known to the other players and COM
mittee.
Rumor Spreads
But when some one informed friend
on the quiet that the ensign was from
California. the rumor spread quickly
among the clubmen that n coast star
with a great reputation was on hand to
win the eastern Pennsylvania State
singles title. One contestant claimed
that he remembered seeing a name some-
thing like Whelan in coast paper as
having played a great match with
Maurice Mclaughlin. This couldn't be
proved. but 1t had its effect on the other
players
T. H. Martin, OF the Belfield Club. was
drawn to oppose the invader. Several

by offering their sympathy. This match
drew the attention of the gallery. and
the opinion was that Martin was in for
a drubbing. When Whelan lost the first
set, 6-2, 1t was thought that he hadn't
struck his proper stride. This appeared
to be the case. for In the second frame
the Californian played better and cap
tured six Of the ten games.
Martin however, was far from being
all down and out. He came back strong
and by staging several successful coun-
ter-attacks gained the upper hand and
won the third set and the match. Per-
haps Martin won't advance much fur
ther In the tournament. but the fact re-
mains that he eases the minds of many
others by eliminating sc-called dark
horse" .....
Dornheim Defeated .-. ......
There was only one upset in the open
ing days play. but it was some sur
prise. Herman Dornheim. captain o.
the Frankford High School team ant
one Of the best junior players developed
in this section for some time, was thu
victim.
Dornheim made a great showing II
this tournay last year. and during thu
last spring defeated the best JUNO
players In this section and New York
He won his flrst-round match yesterday
by default from G. Stiteler. Of Cynwyd
and advanced to the second round b
meet L. Tremaine.
Tremaine is member Of the cham
pionship Greenpoint team, but the ma
Jority thought that Dornheim woul
have little trouble in defeating his NOR
experienced opponent. Such. however
was not the case. for by sticking to hi
job and falling to quit at any stage o
the match Tremaine earned a notabl
victory in a hard-fought three-se
match, 1-6, 6-3, Ga.
