courage before passing on Obviously

match, finding difficulty in catching

parent relief at first, but Just when

Williams, naturally, gave the new
champ more Of a fight in the final
match. With each stroking we'll. and
with power which belied their tender
years, games went with service for
the first seven of the first set, and
as suddenly went against the server

at sail, Walden again captured his

Williams for first blood.

retaliated by breaking Williams serv-
ice for the championship. Despite
his loss, it was a fine showing for
the Episcopal High School student
who completed the first tournament

AS to the juniors, surprises came
IN both Semi-finals singles matches.
None had expected Billy Turner to
wage the kind of fight against
Hef1ner that the scores of rs, 3-6,
6-2 indicate. and only q few had
rentured to predict that David John
sen would trim Harry March, the
scores being 60, 2-6, GO.
To close followers OF the sport, how
ever, the johnson victory cannot be
viewed as an upset. Davey has been
playing tennis all Spring, whereas
March, although the runner-up last

returning home from college early

elimination furthermore removed
the necessity of a special match to
determine Washington's representative

young men from the Uni

written a new page in the history of
American rowing by making q clean
sweep OF the intercollegiate regatta for
the second successive year.
Studding the three victories Of the
Far Westerners on the Hudson yester-
day were two records, 1874 in the
junior varsity event and 1888 SIS in
the varsity. The previous records,
mad by California, had stood since
1928.
Don Hume, who has stroked the
Huskies to victory in the Olympics
and twice on the Hudson, told the
story for the crew:
I'VE had a break with those condi-

nice run in the tide. We kept the

In one corner Of the room sat Al Ul-
Erickson, the tall, courteous coach of
the Huskies. He, as usual, had little
to say:
They're good boys. all Of 'em.
They don't get puffed, this bunch.
That's why they made it two in a
row. That boat knows they can row,
but they don't let the idea run away
with them"
Both the freshman and junior var
slty races were repetitionS Of the Husky
parade in these events The Huskies
started winning the freshman race in
1884 and the jayvee in 1885. They've
been repeating ever since.
Yesterday the freshman boat took
the lead away from Syracuse a half
mile from the stake boat and held it
without difficulty. The Huskies nm
lshed in 9:l525, length and quarter
ahead Of California, with Syracuse
third. Cornells giant frosh eight was
fourth, Nays highly-regarded boat
fifth and Columbia sixth.
The Huskies drove ahead at the start

over a surly river to set the new record
