As the Pacific Northwest Ten
mis- tournament reached the half
way point Wednesday at the Ia
coma LawnsTennis club il became
fairly apparent that Dick Bennett
would bring Tacoma the mems
singles title and that the other
titles probably would be divided
up among out-of-towners.
Bennett outelasses every
one in the field and. barring
accident. should win handily

pion last year: John Howard.
Los Angeles, or Pierpont VIII
son, Oakland.
Patty is top-heavy favorite 10
cop the junior singles crown. while
Jim Brink of Seattle is virtually
cinch to take away the boys
singles trophy.
Only 15-year-old Patty Greenup
remains a Tacoma threat in the
women's and junior girls singles
events, but the promising young
ster is not rated at the same
caliber as Joann Brooke, Santa
Monica. who is seeded first in both
events
