Sterling Easy Winner
Over Brooks at SQUASH


Mortimer NJ. Sterling (plus 1-acc)
won surprisingly easy victory over
Leonard Brooks (scratch) in a semi
final match of the Class A squash ten
lis handicap tourney of the Crescent
Athletic Club yesterday. The score
vas lid, l5--9. Sterling faces N. F..
Torrence (scratch) in the final round
match this afternoon.
Brooks's lack of practice was made
evident in his failure to solve his OPP
roncnt's cross-ccurt shots. Sterling
also forced matters at fast pace and
scored often when Brooks failed TO get
the hall up over the tell-talc.
In the second game, Brooks did bet
ter, but weakened under the terrific
smashing and placement shots Of his
rival toward the end Of the game.
