Seixos Says He and Trobert

Seixas would be on the sidelines

do a thing right and let everyone
know he was annoyed with him.
self by bouncing his racket
around the turf. Seixas won by
not making quite as many errors
as Rose.
Clark seemed to get stronger
as his match with Trabert pro-
gressed and he played some
championship tennis in spots. He
was especially effective in the
third set when Trabert was at
match point three times. The
slim Californian pulled it out.
Then in the final set, he
seemed to have Trabert, who is
the first to admit he's still rusty,
on the run. But Clark double
faulted, then made errors on
some easy returns and lost it.

But for the gift of a tennis
racquet by friends a few years
ago, Joyce Leek, recent winner
of the Public Parks women's
singles tennis championship,
would never have taken up the
game.
The racquet was given as a
Christmas present in 1850 when
Joyce, now IT and a senior at
Coolidge High School, was at
tending Paul Junior High.
Two months after taking up
the game, the following summer
and with no formal instruction
or coaching, she entered the
Middle Atlantic Grass Courts
tournament for girls Is and
under in Baltimore.
II never would have played the
game" she said, ''if I hadn't been
given a racquet as a gift. I fooled
around with it a few months
early in the summer and then
entered the tournament in Bal
timore. I lost my match but the
fact my racquet was heavy didn't
help. I've since bought a lighter
model"
Practices Daily.
Since entering Coolidge, Joyce
has been coached by Carnegie
York, a retired Government en-
ploye who won several champion
ships in foreign countries while
working at the State Depart
ment. She practices four or five
hours daily and in addition re-
ceives coaching from York and
members of the Junior Wight
man Cup squad, an organization
of tennis players in the Metro
politan area. Coach York sup
plements his coaching with NOV
les of leading professional and
amateur tennis players in the
country. All of this in the last
three years has contributed con-
siderably to the improvement in
.Joyce's game.

Cards H Hope To Snap
Losing Streak Friday
Night At Tiger Gym

Still smarting from two straight
Lake Erie League defeats, Shaw
Highs Cardinals will fight to stay
in the running for circuit honors
when they tangle with Cleveland
Heights tomorrow night friday
on the Tigers court starting at
7 p. m.
This game could we'll be the key
contest in the Lake Erie League
championship action.
Despite the fact that Shaw lost
a heartbreaker to Lakewood and
were outpointed at the four-line by
Euclid, the Cards cannot be count
ed out of contention.
AS it stands now, Euclid heads
the circuit with 81 record,
Heights has a Al mark while
Shaw and Lakewood are only one
game behind.
The Tigers will be favorites in
Fridays game in that they will be
on the home court. However, if
the East Clevelanders can upset
the dope, the number two spot in
the Lake Erie League can become
overcrowded and if Lakewood
can get by Shakers unpredictable
quintet.
Some 1000 fans packed the
Euclid gym last Friday night in
the transplanted game which saw
Shaw drop a 67-55 decision to the
towering Panthers.

1t was nip and tuck battle for
most of the first half with Euclid's
height and uncanny accuracy at
the foul line the big difference.
The Panthef's managed to hold
1922 lead at the intermission but
it wasn't until the closing minutes
Of the game that Euclid was as
sured victory.
AS it turned out, Euclid made
good on 19 out of % free throws
(some of the called fouls drew
jeers from the spectator) and the
big boys on the Panther squad,
Myron Cooper (6 #. 5 in.) and
Latt Winder (6 ft. a in.) made the
difference.
Floyd Kregenow was held to 13
points, somewhat below his better
than 20 per game average of ear
lier games. Dick Kohagen plunked
in II. For the victors, Copper had
16 while Winder swished in 22.
The IL point loss to Euclid was
no real indication of the Cardinals
strength. AS mentioned previous
ly, it would have been a different
story if the foul lane situation had
been more equal on the accuracy
side.
Let's get out Friday night at
Heights and show the boys we ere
with them all the way.
Come on Cardinals, beat the
Tigers.
