The finals of the University singles tournament yesterday produced a brilliant and hard-fought match between J. F. W. Whitbeck '27 and L. H. Gordon '27. The Harvard captain defeated Gordon, 6-3, 4-6, 6-0, 6-3 by virtue of his reserve power at the deciding points of each set.
Gordon was the aggressor during most of the play, although Whitbeck stroked to his back-hand consistently.

His strokes were accurate and fast throughout the final play of the University's largest tournament.
