Divisional winners and runnerS-up
who compete in the west section finals
next Wednesday on the Fillmore play
ground will have conditions much bet
ter than prevail on the Georgetown
playground, where the sectional matches
originally were scheduled. A court as
perfect as 1t is possible to make it is
being put in at Fillmore and surround
ing conditions are close to ideal.
The east section play-of will be held
at the Plaza.
There has been hitch in the George
town division play-off and the horse
shoe editor today was looking into the
adviSability of reopening competition
there. In what was listed as the final,
Robert Davidson of Georgetown de-
feated Andrew Tallmadge of Fillmore,
21-12, Pol, 21-20, but up bpbbed
an eligible player who declared the
Georgetown director had refused to let
him compete. He was a runner-up in
preliminary. 1t appears the director
had not understood the rules and
Thoughts only winners of preliminaries
were eligible.
