HAIR YARD STAR SHOWS
HE HAS REAL NERVE
Texas Tennis Player Fails to Win From Leon de Tmenne
after Playing Match Point -Four Times--Intercole.
giate Tournament Begins at Merton Cricket Club
Ry SPICK HALL

T EON DE TURENNE, captain of the
~ Harvard lawn tennis team, gave one
OF the greatest exhibitions Of nerve yes
terday afternoon at the Merton Cricket
Club, eyer seen In this vicinity. His
work was an inspiration to any faint
hearted athlete and II was a spectacle
that the few. who saw It will always
remember, De Turenne was playing
Mcneil Drumwright, Of the University
OF Texas, In the first round Of the In
tercollegiate tournament. No one paid
much attention to the match Mt first
because while everybody admits that
Texas Is our most extensive state II
cannot compare with our smallest
Rhode Island In point Of tennis. ex-
perts. Hence no one. with the possible
exception of Drumwright himself knew
that the Lone Star state had a player
that could put UP real battle against
one of the best college players in the
East. But that's where Drumwright
fooled them all, just as Colonel House
used to do.
De Turenne got a running lead Of
So in the first set, which by the way
only the players and the umpire knew
at the time. Then Drumwright buckled
down to business, yes sub he did. De
Turenne got one more game In that set
but lost 1t to the sub Mason Dixon
liner S-6. This caused something. of a
stir among the college clans and most
of the gallery proceeded to go up closer
and get look at this youth from the
Sunny South.
Use the Chop
What they saw was this: A sandy
haired, .wiry athlete, possessing sound
tennis ideas, but no orthodox stroke
except the chop. His speed was noted
generalship was quite visible when he
went to the net, which he did at every
opportunity. His volleys lacked pace,
but they were cut ut such an acute
angle that they scored points just as
though they had been hit with the final
ity Of a Billy Johnston.
The spectators also saw a perfectly
sound service, American service that
had good speed on both the first and
second deliveries, to say nothing Of a
fine chop which time and again passed
de Turrenne on his backhand as he
raced into the fore court. These shots
cut the side lines and We're deeply
placed, which gave them added effec-
tiveness, even when de Turenne was
lucky enough to get his racquet on
them.
All Of these things were observed in
the second set, which De Turenne at last
won. rs. by his superior ground
strokes and strong overhead play. But
that loss didn't seem to worry the
Texan. He continued in his even,
phlegmatic way until the game had
reached 4-all in the third set.
Match Point
Here Dc Turcnne faltered for a mo-
point for the Texan. But Turenne
came to the fore and played the point
as though the match had only begun.
smashing out a clean placement and
deucing the score. Drumwright got the
advantage on the next stroke and again
was within point Of the match. And

Girard Field Club gave North Phillies
their worst defeat Of the season Sunday,
trouncing them by score of 6 to 2.
Wilbur Schmidt almost had his name in
the Hall of Fame when he held the
sluggers of North Phillies hitless and
runless up until two men were out in
the ninth inning when North Phillies
secured their only hit combined with an
error and scored two runs. The spec
tacular fielding of Powell was the best
seen on these grounds. On four differ
