Crimson Defeats Lions in Tennis, To Meet Quakers

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The varsity tennis team easily gained its sixth victory yesterday, swamping Columbia, 9 to 0, in New York, and should win the seventh today when it faces Penn in Philadelphia at 2 p.m.

At one, Ham Gravem played an attacking game, frequently coming to the net behind his powerful serve and forehand to beat Columbia's captain, Pete Chase, 6-3, 6-2.

Captain Alex Haegler, at two, lost only three games in beating Chauncey Bartholet, but Brooks Harris was extended to three sets before taking Chauncey's brother Paul, 9-7, 1-6, 6-1. Conrad Fischer, Dan Mayers, and Maynard Canfield all won handily for the Crimson in the remaining singles matches.

In the first doubles, the Bartholet brothers bowed in three sets to Ben Heckscher and Gravem, and Mayers and Harris disposed of Dick Stendel and Ernest Crocker in second doubles, 6-3, 6-3. Fischer and Canfield beat Norbert Wagner and Erick Eybye in the final match.
