Emmett Pare
Annexes CLAW
Court Crown
Defeats Hall in Finals;
Double Teams Compete
70 Title.
BY DICK MILLER

Emmett Pare, of Chicago, is the
national clay court singles tennis
champion today. Pare won that
honor Tuesday by defeating j
Gilbert Hall of South Orange. N. j.,
in the final matchi at Woodstock.
The final contest was started and
finished under ideal conditions and
the Chicago player won, GA, 6-3, As,
3-6 and 81.
The doubles title is still at stake
although some progress towards
final settlement was made Tuesday.
Berkeley Bell Of Austin, Tex, team
ing with Louis Thalheimer Of Chi
cago, finished out lingering
quarter final match with D. K Muir
ray and Clifford Suffer of New
Orleans and won Sc, as, 6-3
and Sd
They then took the courts against
Ben Gorchakof and Arthur Kuss-
man Of Los Angeles, but lost a long
drawn-out match, 60, 68, 2-6, 81
and rs.
The victory put Gorchakof and
Kussman into the finals. Wray
Brown of st. Louis and Harris
Coggeshall of Des Noines, Ia, who
we're to play J. Gilbert Hall and
Fritz Mercus Of Bethlehem, Pa, in
the other semi-fnal match were
forced to leave the city and de-
faulted. However, before the Hall
Mercur and Gorchakoff- Kussman
match could get under way q cloud
burst caused a pOStponement until
this morning.
Pare reached the finals against
Hall in some sort Of an "error-ot
Judgment" manner. A seni-flnaI
match between Pare and Bryan
Grant Jr. Of Atlanta, Ga, was I'm
ished Tuesday noon.
Grant had led from the start,
getting away to a tWo-sets-to-one
lead Saturday and led in games,
go. when rain halted the match.
Play resumed Monday long enough
for Pare to even the third set but
rain again halted the fray with
each holding eleven games.
Someone talked Grant out of the
match Tuesday when it was Sug-
gested that the third set be started
all over again. Grant agreed and
then went out and won the first
two games. Had he been con-
tinuing the third set, the games
would have been given him the set,
1911, and the right to meet Hail
in the finals. He won games four
and five Of the set before he finally
began making errors which cost
him the set, Ga, and the final and
deciding fifth game. 6-3.
