Fall tennis was brought to a close yesterday afternoon when R. N. Williams, 2d, '16 won the Interclass Tournament for the Seniors by defeating H. G. M. Kelleher '18 in the final match by a score of 6-3, 4-6, 6-0. Williams superiority lay chiefly in his ground strokes. Both men were hampered by the cold weather and brisk wind.
Tennis this fall has been unusually successful, the record number of 142 men entering the singles tournament. This event not only proved its value by providing excellent practice for the players, but brought forward several new men of marked ability. The chief of these was R. C. Rand '19 who worked his way into the final round of both singles and doubles tournaments. Thirty-one pairs entered the doubles tournament which was finally won by S. M. Stellwagen 4L. and R. Kennedy uC. in four sets of hard play.
In the Interclass Tournament the Seniors easily defeated the Juniors, while the Sophomores took all but one match from the Freshmen. The matches between the Seniors and the Sophomores stood four matches to two at the beginning of yesterday's play, Williams' victory giving the Seniors the tournament.
The championship courts on Divinity Field which have just been finished will make it unnecessary to play important matches at Longwood in the future.
