NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Captain Langdon. B. Gilkey '40 and David S. Burt '40 entered the finals of the University tournament yesterday as the seedings hold true to form. Hurt defeated for the right to meet Gilkey who had already entered the finals by his victory over Al Dickinson (2B) 3-6, 6-2, 6-0.

There were two upsets in the earlier rounds. Howard Kahn third seeded John Palfrey in a quarter final round grueller, while unseeded Dickinson ousted Chester Legg '40 in an earlier round. Another surprise came when Arthur Brooks '39 defeated Jack Stewart '40 to gain the distinction of being the only senior in the quarter finals. Walter Muther '40 gave Burt his stiffest battle before succumbing in three sets.
