I remember at home we had an
unmatching set, but imagined it
was because of necessity. When
things are broken the original
could not be matched.
Answer: I have certainly never
discouraged matching china. In
fact, I think it beautiful. The
reason why people use odd sets
is because they haven't a sufficient
amount of matching china, and
because odd sets are given to
brides.

After an upset victory over
seventh-seeded Phil Nef1 yesterday
for q tuneup. Fred McNair was
shooting for even bigger game TO-
day In the annual City Of Wash
ington tennis tournament at Edge
moore Tennis Club where he was
to meet Barney Welsh in one Of
three singles matches.
The accurate and seemingly in
exhaustable McNair, who wore
down Georgetown's net coach in
three gruelling sets, SIS. 70,
6I3, advanced to the quarter
final round along with Welsh. Don
Leavens, DR.. David johnson. kahl
Spriggs and Hugh Lynch. all
hardy perenniels in local tennis.
Defending Champion Jim Thack-
ara and Capt. Robin Hippenstiel,
third-seeded in the tourney. were
expected to JON the group In the
round of eight today. Thackara
was to meet Jim Antignat and
Hippenstiel faces Spriggs. who
beat Ed Filipek, SIS, 81. That
will arrange the trappings for
what Is expected to be one Of
the fastest finishes the tourna-
ment has witnessed in recent
years.
McNair supporters thought he
had the strokes and stamina to
take the Rockville seige gun into
camp today. but Welsh's followers
believe yesterdays match may
have taken too much out Of him.
Welsh had a comparatively light
afternoon in ousting the veteran
Frank Shore in straight sets, Ga,
Cd, and should be In the pink.
Leavens. Lynch and johnson
served notice that they must be
Ireckoned with in divvying up the
spoils by their aggressive work
yesterday. Leavens' 81. 81 tri-
umph over the capable Buddy
Adair was particularly impressive.
while Lynch showed good staying
power In coming back to over
power the reliable Sam Hayes.
As, 6-l. 6-l. johnson solved
Mack Taylor's ambidextrous swing
ing to win without undue effort.

Willie Herbert. the defending
