Uncertain Weather Menoces
Junior and Boy Matches
In Star Net Tourney

Todays uncertain weather condi-
tons menaced play in The Stars
Junior-boy tennis tournament at Co.
lumbia Country Club.
Unless rain forces postponements
this afternoon, competition In both
singles and doubles of the Junior
draws will be in the semifnal brack-
cts by dusk, with the boys final al

Only one title match definitely is
scheduled tomorrow. the boys sim
giles final between Defending Cham

will be played tomorrow depended
upon the progress made this after
noon. Byron Matthews. seeded third,
still has to meet Dick Mayfield in a
quarter final engagement, while four
quarter-flnal doubles matches were
scheduled. 1t was thought the best
officials could hope for was to reach
the final round in both singles and
doubles by tomorrow afternoon, with
the two Junior matches being played
Sunday.
Whenever competition is resumed
David Kay of Roosevelt High is Ger
tain to be the marked man. Kay
raised few eyebrows on Monday
when he eliminated sixtn-seeded
Maurice Cowan in straight sets, but
his 6-3, 81 rout of frst-seeded
Leonard Sokol yesterday catapult-
ed him into the front ranks of
junior circles. Kay won by fol-
lowing one of tennis oldest tenets:
Keep the ball in play and you can't
lose. Content merely to return So
kol's hardest drives, Sokol grew dis
couraged when he found his snots
consistently coming back, and most
every point ended with Sokol wildly
driving the ball into the net or out
of bounds.
Kay now awaits the winner of
the Matthew's -Mayfield match, while
