Finalists Play
Hard to Limit
OF Five Games
Champion for Third Time
Keeps Honors He Won
From Challenger i'm 1915
By lack Masters

Clarence C. Pell, of this city, who
has held the racquets championship
OF America since 1915, when he won
the title, from S. G. Mortimer, also
local player, successfully defended his
laurels for the third time yesterday
afternoon, when he again defeated
Mortimer in the final of the national
tournament. The issue was decided in
FIVE games. The meet was not held
in 1918 and 1919.
Mortimer put up great fight in his
third attempt 20 regain the crown, and
up to the halfway point in the fourth
set it appeared that he would defeat
Pell, but with victory in his grasp he
cracked wide open. In the last set the
former champion, who has played un-
usually fine racquets throughout the
meet, was held scoreless. His collapse
!. was complete. The score was 15-6,
I2-l5, S-15, 15--6, 15-0.
Pell welded his bat with the high
standard of efficiency which has marked
his play since his entry into Glass A.
His work was not sensational, but he
was consistently good, whereas his op~
ponent scared to the heights IN one hand,
only to be held helpless in the next,
Both players made any number of
brilliant gets, and during his spurts
Mortimer covered the court with amaz-
Ing speed and agility.
Title Holder Takes Lead
The champion took the first game by
getting away to an early lead which
Mortimer could not overcome. although
he drew up fairly close in the closing
innings.
Again in the second game Pell took
the lead but with the score 81
against him, Mortimer came with
rush that nearly swept the champion
SIS in his favor in a single hand.
From this point on Mortimer had no
trouble and took the game with three
points to spare.
In the third session Mortimer main
tanned the speed he had shown in the
second and nearly swamped Pell. It
was here that many of the galleryites
anticipated new champion, and had
Mortimer continued at the same pace
Il. the next two games he undoubtedly
would have attained the honor, but in
the fourth he weakened badly, losing
in only six innings.
The fifth and last set-to turned oyt
TO be one of the quickest ever played
II a national tournament. Pell went
cut at dazzling clip and scored seven
points in the first hand. His place
ments were exceptionally good and
he played the ball along rhe side
wall with equal deceptiveness either in
slams or with tantalizing slowness.
Mortimer on Defensive
Mortimer was on the defensive en-
tirely. He could do nothing at all with
the ball, and in the second hand Pell
gathered three more points, making the
score 100. Pell changed his tactics
somewhat in the next hand, resorting
to around-the-court play, which was
even more effective than his previous
method for he ran the necessary five
points, this completing the fifteen in
three innings and at the same time
holding his opponent scoreless. 1t was
an impressive victory.
