J. Heinz, Gus Ruana and F. l.. Kah-

ing especially troublesome to the Ha.
zenites, and they scored manv aces.
J. ]. Heinz won in the finals of the
singles event from Wernlie in straight
sets. In the semi-finals Sprecher and
Wernlie battled to score OF 3-6. 6-2,
81 and 6-3, when Sprecher. who had
already played some ocer 100 games
being too exhausted to continue the
play, defaulted to Wernlie. Heinz
then put Wernlie out by a score OF
GA, GA, Ga, the old champion never
once being able to take set. Warn
