For the last few years Ton.
Mangan, stocky veteran and Bob
Considine, elongated youngste::
would look over local tennis
tournament doubles fields. yawn
sleepily, and after good long
stretch, such as was recommend
ed by the late Walter Camp,
would mutter:
"Huh! Huh! Jes' .anuther Of
them thar doubles champeen-.
ships fer us to win, dern et!"
They started their triumphal
march in 1928, when they cap
tured their greatest prize, the
Middle Atlantic doubles title.
Last year they added the District
of Columbia and City OF Wash
ington titles and repeated in the
City of Washington this season.
But now, as they contemplate
the uuarterfinal survivors IN the
District of Columbia tournament
at Edgemoor courts they are
beset with misgivings. The com
bination of Dooley Mitchell ano
Billy Jacobs, two undeniably
superlative competent courtesans,
looms nightly across their paths
It is a Mt. Everest among several
pesky tho less formidable cragS
and it bulks unaSSailably before
them.
DooIey Mitchell is playing
devastating tennis at present
and Billy Jacobs, a cool,
crafty court wizard, Is
tougher than FOggy Bot
tom beef-Steak.
Standing squarely before these
two, and making unmistakably
defiant gestures with racquets.
boding no good for their oppo-
nents. are Ensigns Jimmy Farm
and Bill Howard, of the U. s.
Navy, who yesterday toppled
,Charest and Phillips. 6-3, 10-8.
In spite of this and that and
few other things the ballroom
boys are laying the cabbage
leaves on a repeater for the old
young duo, figuring that years of
combine play through many Cruel
ling matches will tell over
merely makeShift alliance be-
tween two spirited but not thor
oughly tested youngsters. EX-
perience is beaten only through
an upset and you can't count
on upSetS.
But neither Bob nor Tom show
an inclination to yawn or stretch
or make any but ultra a-conserva,
tive remarks.
Yesterdays singles play found
Clarence ChareSt defending
champion. quietly tucked away by
Dooley Mitchell, whose determine.
smartly-played game had the
+ great veteran swinging like a
creaky garden gate and with just
about as much effectiveness. Nit
chell flew through the first set
at love, and dropped two games
in the second when Charest mo-
mentarily rallied.
Bob COnSidine brushed
/ Colin Siam aside nor chalant-
/ ly, 60, 6-2, though Siam
made things warm on Occa-
siOnS, forcing Bob to Scamper
for recOverieS.
Tom Mangan found young
Eddie Yoemans very, very indis
posed, but sudbued him ga,
6-4, after the raven-locked lad
had given him a terrific run for
match point. Court generalship
was the winning factor.
Billy Jacobs. the Oriole wizard
! dropped Maurice O'Neil in straight
sets, Ga, 90, without expe-
riencing undue trouble.
A battle of SidekickS features
the semifinal singles, with Jacobs
assaulting Mitchell and Considine
tackling Mangan, both pair Of
oponentS being doubles partners,
and likely finalists in that event
