the edge over the local pair as
they swept through the first set
60, but by scoring ga victories ~
the remaining sets the Hall-Briggs
duo won the match.
The No. l doubles. was. how
ever. the smost closely contested
match OF the day with Jim Miller
and Bill Rowe battling to a 81,
3-6, S-6 win. This was their third
straight victory and their fourth
OF the year. They were opposed
by Odds and Daley.
In the singles matches Ellis

ing play with a 60, 6-2 win over
Lorenz In No. 1, while L. d. Har.
mon took his No. match easily
from Brit so, ga. At the third
singles post Bill Strang had to
fight hard to take the first set
SO from McAIlister but the second
and deciding one saw Bill annex
six games in quick succession to
complete the process of blanking
the Plymouth squad.
