Singular Reuenge Is Gained
As Treasury Netmen Triumph;
Default of 1885 Is Recalled

practically sewed up, Treasury found
its team scheduled to play league
match on the day that four Of its
leading players were slated to play
quarter final matches in q major Dis
trict tournament. Frantically, they
sought to effect a postponement of
the match with their Departmental
League rivals.
But the latter refused to delay. de-
claring that their team would be on
the courts at the stated hour and that
if Treasury's representatives were not
there they would claim q default. 1t
was case of choosing between the
league and the tournament for the
Treasury quartet, and the choice of
the latter resulted in the default.
1t is pertinent that the Treasury
team finished in second place, three
matches behind the winning P. W. A.
team. to which it had defaulted four
matches-which, had it won, would
have given it the championship!
Just a fortnight ago. the same sit
uation arose. Stan McCaskey and
Larry Phillips, the No. doubles team
Of the champions, were scheduled to
play crucial match in the Middle
Atlantic doubles tournament on the
day their Treasury mates were to play

opponents refused delay. but this
time McCaskey and Phillips met the
challenge by playing both matches,
