Requiring only one point for victory
In his third round match with II. Oakley
yesterday, Harold A. Throckmorton, New
Jersey State champion and runner up
for the Metropolitan and Bronx County
titles, was forced TO default his match
In the Brooklyn championship tennis
tournament at the Terrace Club in Flat

Ga. 81 and 40--15 when his arm
gave out and forced him to retire.

some months ago, and although he
claimed that II never has been brought
back to condition, he has been playing
quite q bit OF tennis. Throckmorton
had to work hard to win the Jersey
championship a couple of weeks ago, and
then last week in the Metropolitan cham
pionship event. although the arm
troubled him little. Throckmorton
thought that IL was rounding into shape.

strokes with the result that when he
