Charest Faces Moorehead
In D. G.. Net Tourney

Todays District tennis championship play will provide high
class tennis and thrills galore in each quarterna singles
match at Rock Greek Park courts.
The Washington times., 1931-07-08

The majority of the courtesans
will hang around the SidelineS OF
the court where Clarence Charest,
great veteran and former cham
pion, is attempting to tame the
exuberant J. Upton Moorehead.
MOOrehead Watched
Moorehead is suffused with
uper-brilliance because of his
spectacular conquest of young
Don Morrison, who had elimi-
mated Bob Considine, defending
champion, in straight sets Mon
day.
Among MOorehead'S previous
victims were Hickey Willis,
runner-up for the d. C. junior
championship, and MuscOe Gar
nett.
Moorehead, who is around o.,
and a member of Chevy Chase
Club, played in the District tour
nament last year, where he bowed
to Dooly Mitchell in the third
round. He has been doing most
of his playing in New England.
with Yale's tennis team, of which
he is captain and No. l player.
Due to his victory over Morrison
yesterday, he is favored over
ChareSt.
Much interest is centered around
the Eddie Yoemans-Bob Elliott
affray. It is the first real test
Yoemans faces in the tournament.
Elliott roasted high among Balti-
moreans last year, and doesn't
seem to have lost any of his cum
ming, since he came southwark.
Crack Doubles Advance
Both the Dooly Mitchell and
Bud Markey scuffle and the Tom
Mangan-Frank Shore tuSSle are
humdingers, with the two under

triumphing, should Mitchell or
Mangan be off their game.

great experience according to Captain

plane and glider which made 1t posi-.
BILE, we never should have reached

The glider and towing plane were
connected by telephone so that Duke"
Jernigin, pilot Of the plane, and Cap.
tain Hawks, could be in constant com.
munication with each other. The tele-
phone equipment was installed by the
Western Electric Company. By means

500 feet to the rear, to issue orders and
