.DRESSEL.bENS0N
 WIN TENNIS GROWN
Doubles Team Cops Champion
 ship for Second Time

The tennis doubles team of Henry Dressel and Edwin Benson success fully defended their city champion ship title Saturday afternoon in the final match of the tournament being staged under the auspices of the New Britain Tennis club. The cham pions defeated Harold Van Oppen and Arthur Benson three straight sets.
 From the start Of the match the winners showed superiority. Edwin Benson smashing the ball across the net at his brother Art was d tower Of strength on the defense and his work on the otcnse was of high order Dresscl starred in the back like a vhirlwind. The scores of the match were 6-4, 6-i and S..
 Van Oppen and A. Benson failed 10 show any extra ordinary tennis and they were below standard in their quest for q victory over last years champions. They failed to even show the same brand of tennis that brought them through to the finals.
 Tn the elimination in the singles play, Dick Lcinhard defeated M,lr- dock S-6 and 6-2. This brings Lein- hard further along in the play. He is being favored by a large number ,o cop the singles title and if he keeps up the same line of play that be has shown so far. his backers are confident that he will come through in the finals.
 The rain of yesterday prevented further play in the tournament. The quarter final matches and semi finals probably being played on Wednesday.
 The cups to be awarded to the winners will be awarded possibly oA Wednesday. A new champion will be crowned in the singles play this year because of the fact that Kirk ham, winner last year. has gone 10 Texas to teach school.
