Washington University tennis team.
Martin kept the Augusta champion
ship at home, winning the cup at the
end Of five sets of hard fought. bril-
liantly played tennis by. margin of

Martins victory of yesterday was
due largely to superior court strate-
gy, for his younger opponent is in
many ways the fastest singles player
seen for years on an Augusta court.
Ladd eXcels in the net game, and it
was with this dashing style of play
that he defeated Samuel Titcomb.
1920 champion, and won his way
into the finals. Martins constant
lobbying. and hard lofts to the back
line forced the George Washington
star from the net to the back court,
where he had to adopt himself to a
less accustomed style of play.
While the game scores were not
close in any set. the points were
hotly disputed throughout. There
were but five love games out of the
r. played to decide the champion
ship. Both men made beautiful
placement shots. recovered quickly,
and covered their courts in a man
ner that brought salvos of applause
time and again from the large gal
lery present to watch the play. The
match was efficiently refereed by
Principal Clarence Quimby of Cony
High.
The match in detail follows: Ladd
won the first set, 6-3: Martin took
the second, g.. and the third, SO.
Ladd took the first game of the
fourth set, and lost the next two to
his opponent. He then made a Won
derful rally, and won the next five

game of the final set, after deuce had
been called three times. Laid took

closer to the net than formerly.
Martin again drove him into the
back court, and took the next five
games in order, winning the set, g.

DISPUTE ACCURACY or CLOCK
Heirs Of Danish Nobleman Stand to
Win or Lose Large Amount Of
Money by Decision.

What time was 1t when the castle
clock struck twelve?
Ten thousand pounds, normally
about $4,000, hangs on the answer to
this question, explains the London Elk
press correspondent in Denmark, which
has been the subject Of lively argu-
ment In the eastern civil court, Copen-
hagen.
The clock 10 question Is In the tower
Of Lystrup castle. the seat Of one OF
Denmark's greatest landlords. the late
Count Moltke, a life member OF the
ancient house OF lords.
Count Moltke died on the night Of
December l9-20,l9ls, few seconds
after the castle clock struck twelve.
The Danish parliament recently APP
proved a new and increased scale OF
death duties, applicable to the estate
% all persons who died after midnight
on December 1920
II is contended 10y the counts heirs
that the castle clock was fast and
struck minute too soon. The count,
they say, died on December 10 and
therefore his estate is exempt from
the increase Ia The death duties.
