is just as strong at the finish as she is
on the opening service and this is an
advantage that will carry her far in
tournament play.
Looking Ahead
There was lot of speculation at
Merton yesterday as to the probable
winner after Mrs. Harvey had been
eliminated. Miss Thayer certainly had
good chance, although she will have
to be at the top of her game to beat
Miss Townsend If the latter continues
to play in the same form that she did
yesterday, and there is no apparent rea
son why she shouldn't. Miss Thayer
has beaten Miss Townsend once this
year, Mrs. Harvey defeated Miss
Thayer in the opening match of the
Interclub League and now Mrs. Harvey
has bowed to Miss Townsend SO there
you are, choose and make the books.
And, by the way, there are still some
other players left in the tournament
Miss Mary Law, Merton. has reached
the third round and Is going well; so
has Mrs. w. p. Newhall, German
town; Mrs. Robert Herold. Belfield I;
Mrs. j. s. Disston. Jr., Cricket Club |;
Miss Phyllis Walsh, Country Club I;
Miss Peggy Ferguson and a couple of
others. Maybe one of these will sur
prise, you never can tell.
This morning the second round will
be completed and the doubles will start
this afternoon. Tomorrow the singles
will be continued and the mixed doubles
will begin.
