NET DOUBLES
TITLE QUEST
WIDE OPEN

UIUL VI EU
The scuffle for the city Of
washington mems doubles net
title is wide open, and interesting
battles are in view.
Both the No. and No. 2 D. c..
ranking doubles teams have been
broken up, by the absence OF
Bob Considine and Eddie Yoe-
mans and though the survivors
of these two combinations have
hitched up and are powerful
threats, they lack experience to-
gether.
Veterans In Battle
Veteran teams such as Dooly
Mitchell and Bill Buchanan, Pat
Deck and Bill Seidell, Frank
Shore and Anthony Latona,
Gene Herman and Hugh Trigg,
Grant and Haney, O'Neill and
Love, Allan Staubly and FREQ
Sendel. are very much in the
turmoil.
Doubles play opened today
at the Rock Greek courts at
5 o'clock. A second squad was
to get under way at 6 o'clock.
The outstanding scrap is ex-
pected to be the one in which
Hunt and De Land. Eastern High
aces, are involved with Bob FL
lott and Decker.
Tom Mangan meets a stern
test in Bill Seidel in singles to-
day. Seideu sparkled brilliantly
in the Wardman Park tourna-
ment last year.
Clarence Charest's defeat at the
hands of Bob Elliott, while sur
prise, was not an upset. Elliott
scored many notable victories II
Baltimore last year, while Charest
was idling. Elliott also put ir
many hours of indoor play during
the winter.
Mitchell Flashes
Anthony Latona's defeat of Bill.
Buchanan also was wen within
reason. Latona has been coming
along fast and is an earnest stu
dent of the game. He hung up a
fine record last year and is on the
way of improving on it.
DOOly Mitchell swept to the
fourth round, moving down
three opponents in rapid success
sion, relinquiShing only IL
games in all.
Dorothy Kingsbury'S passing at
the hands of Miss Butler was ar
upset. Miss Kingsbury is seventh
ranking District of Columbis
player. Mrs. Ruth Martinez
seeded No. /, reached the thiro
round. Clara Tabler easily scored
in the first round.
