In the course of the annual North and South Tennis Tournament Avhich took up the week of April 10 to 15, Mrs. Marion Zinderstein Jessup of Wilming ton, Del., regained her championship singles title when she defeated Miss Martha Bayard of Short Hills, N. J., by a score of 6-1, 6-1, in the final round, but the men 's singles title remains to be settled . S. Howard Voshell of Brooklyn, former national indoor champion, and C. Carlton Shafer of Philadelphia, former holder of the national indoor doubles title, who AAere the general favor ites for the championship finals, fought their Avay to the final round on Satur day last, and after indulging in a strug gle that lasted more than four hours and long after the shadoAvs of eA-ening had fallen the match Avas called on ac count of darkness, all even. As the participants were scheduled to play in a tournament at White Sulphur Springs this Aveek it AA'as necessary for them to leave Pinehurst that night and the match Avill be replayed at that resort this week. The final round between Voshell and Shafer Avas one of the greatest tennis "duels ever played on the local courts. When they Avere forced to leave the courts on account of darkness the score stood two sets each and at nine games all in the fifth set. Shafer won the first two sets at 6-2, 8-6, and Voshell then pulled up on even terms by Avinning the next tAvo sets at 6-4, 6-3. It Avas evident soon after the start of the match that Voshell Avas going to have his hands full. His ground strokes Avere weaker than usual, and when his service began to falter and go wrong it left him without a real forcing shot behind Avhich he could go in to the net position for the volley. Shafer Avas in particularly good form in the early stages, placing his main reliance in placing, without sacrificing accuracy for the sake of more speed. Time after time he caught Voshell out of position by shooting his returns of ser vice doAvn the side lines, and in the ex changes from deep court, the Philadel phian almost always came off Avith the honors. In the third set, hoAvever, Voshell, after losing the first two sets, gathered all his forces, knoAving it must be then or never with him, and started to speed up in his stroking and his footwork. He fought his Avay through to a. Avinning 6-4 and (Continued on Fage 9)
