.FAVORITES WIN
At EDGEMO0R

Favorites came through with
coIors flying in the first two rounds
OF play in the District of Columbia
open tennis tournament on the
Edgemoor Club courts yesterday.
Today, however, may be different
story for many a nlenacing figure
still remains in the fight for the
crown which Major Robert c. Van
Vliet is defending.
Although it was the largest and
bulkiest field which ever presented
itself to officials in a local tourney,
the matches were run off eXpedi-
tiously with very few defaults mark
Ing the days play. In fact. so
speedy was play that one man,
Maurice O'Neil, finds himself in
the fourth round already, having
drawn one bye and won two cther
matches.
From all indications IL looks
like another Tom Mangan Major
VanVliet final. These two are
both playing fine tennis and
should emerge victorious In
their respective brackets.
Louis Kurland is an oninous fig.
ure in the local meet. After win
ming his first round match here he
hurried back to Baltimore and
yesterday won the public PARIS
championship in three sets from F.
Taylor. The former Maryland Z.
star will bear plenty of watching,
as will young Billy Jacobs, another
Baltimorean.
