Although forced to extend themselves
for the FIRST time in the tournament,
Miss Marion zinderstein and Miss
Eleonorat, Sears OF Boston won the final
OF the Heights Casino invitation tennis
doubles tournament yesterday. defeating
Mrs. Rawson Wood and Mrs. De Forest
Cardee, g. SIS It proved to be not
only the closest but by far the most
spectacular match of the series, splendid
getting on both sides accounting Tor
we'll sustained rallies.
The victorious pair after more or
less easy time Of 1t in the opening set
were inclined to slacken their speed III
the second division of play. and the
lapse almost cost them a set Mrs.
Wood and Mrs. Candee came through
with determined squirt just about the
time that the Boston team deeidei 10
lag a bit. and the score was o. III
favor of the New York women almost
before their rivals realized it. Then
came an answering rally on the part
of the visitors, who. tightening their
defence and attacking more aggressively,
drew up quickly to Sail. Again Mrs
Wood and Mrs Candee went into the
lead In the next game, but their ad-
vantage was short lived. Miss Under
stein and Miss Sears taking the next
three games In short order for the set
and match.
Throughout the contest the brilliant
playing Of Miss Zinderstein stood out
prominently. She was all over the court,
anticipating returns and reaching the
right spot at the right time AS usual
she forced the net to get full advantage
of her effective volleying and accurate
overhead play Her opponents loboed
and lobbed again in every game in an
effort to keep her out of the forward
court. but they could not lob deep or
high enough to gain their object Miss
Zinderstein would either jump Into the
air and bring her racquet down for a
decisive smashing stroke or she would
run back a stride or two and take the
ball more conservatlvely. The important
thing was her surprising accuracy. TINS
coupled with world of speed whenever
she cared to call on it proved TO De
an unbeatable combination.
In the early set Mrs. Wood and Mrs
Cardee showed by the way they directed
their attack toward Miss Sears's side of
the net that they considered Miss Sears
the weak member of the Boston. COM
bination. They proved to be mistaken.
Miss Sears was not as brilliant nor as
effective as her partner. but she was
very steady and she surprised her op-
ponents and the gallery by the way she
borc the brunt of the attack game after
game, getting everything back that was
within reach.
On the losers side Mrs. Wood showed
the better Judgment Of distance and
angles, and earned a majority OF her
points either by volleying or by swift
low drives along the side lines. She was
bothered. however. by an injury to her
foot that caused her TO limp during the
match and rendered 1t impossible for her
to cover as much ground as usual. Mrs.
Candee played aggressively, but lacked
control at important stages.
