VETERANS IN UPSET
Washburn Williams Team
Shows Lack of Practice
During Spring.

- MMETT PARE and Gregory Man
- gin of Georgetown University,
upsetting the dope, won the
~ Chevy Chase invitation double
net tile yesterday afternoon, de-
feating Watson F. Washburn and r.
for the past three years, in decisive
final. GO, 60, 2-6, 6-3. Except in the
third set, the veteran pair were not
even close contenderS. WaShburn
showed his lack of early Spring practice
in the number of shots missed along
the backline and on the backhand. Will
liams, too, was cratic in the opening
set, but settled down to his old stride
as the match progressed.
Wet courts and lack of time made it
necessary to cancel the singles tourna-
ment which was to have been played
in conjunction with the doubles.
Exhibition Matches Today.
Informal exhibition singles matches
are scheduled for this morning and this
afternoon, however, featuring the visit
ing players. These will begin at about
IL or 1880 this morning, and will be
resumed again between 3 and 4 o'clock,
according to Lawrence Baker, chairman
of the tournament committee.
Mangin proved the star of the tour
nament, driving and lobbing with deadly
consistency. His service, too, was bril-
liant. He lost but one game on his own
delivery during the entire event, and
won most of them with the loss Of but
single point Pare gave him excellent
support in the final, but his usually per-
feet lobbing was falling short earlier in
the day.
The college team romped through the
first and second sets against the de-
Tending champion in a manner so i'm
-
third seem doubtful possibility. Wat
son and Williams frightened up, how
ever. heartened by a 20 lead gained
when Pare dropped his service and
Williams won his. They continued to
stay on top until this set was sewed
up, but were unable to hold the pace
set by the youngsters in the fourth
bracket. Mangins only service-loss of
the tourney came in the eighth game
OF love count, giving his opponents
the set.
Downed Hardy and Baker.
In advancing to the title round, Will
liams and Washburn first downed Sam
Hardy Of the West Side Club, Forest
Hills, and Lawrence Baker, Chevy
Chase Club. 8-6, 81 and followed
this by a win over Walter Merrill Hall
Gin SOLAA ~ NANSAOy III OH dlSLlb ocGo,
81, 60. The Hall-McCoy team
scored over Walter Pate and Julian
Myrick of New York to reach the semi
final round.
In the lower bracket, Pare and Man
gin drew a bye which advanced them
to the semi-f1nals, where they met Ed
ward Herndon and Cedric Major, both
Of New York, trimming them in straight
sets, Ga, Cd. Herndon and Major
entered the eemi-f1nal bracket at the

reasons the Aeronautic Review can adj
vance on behalf of Admiral Moffett's
reappointment. His record Of tangible,
specific accomplishments Is too
lengthy to be recorded here: further
more, they are well known to every one
identified with aeronautics.
1.-THE status of the Bureau Of Aero
nautics today, with its record of eff
cheney and accomplishments in the face
of conditions and circumstances brought
about by the organization of the naval
establishment, can be laid at the door
Of Admiral Moffett's Office as the great
est of all arguments on behalf Of his
retention.
"In hoping for the retention of Ad-
miral Moffett for another appointment,
the Aeronautic Review does not cast
any reflection on the three or four pos
Sible candidates for the post who have
been mentioned in service gossip. It is
obvious that none of them, high rank
ing officers though they be, kcS the
background that Admiral MoffGts has
acquired through long years of pioneer
ing for naval aeronautics.
Admiral Moffett retires on account Of
age on october 81, 1888. 1t would be
a splendid tribute to him If he could
be permitted to complete a brilliant
career in 1888 as chief Of the Bureau
of AeronauticS. Then it will not be a
matter of great importance to the Navy
who succeeds to his office. The mo-
mentum generated by Admiral Moffett's
wise and efficient administration will
carry the bureau along, just as momen-
tum, tradition and precedent play a
large part in keeping the other bureaus
OF the Navy moving smoothly and
efficiently"
