In the first day, Bridgers and Bryson, of Univ. of North Car olina, drew Colby and Ilerrick, of Princeton, and were defeated by the latter, 6-2, 1-6, 2-6. Yale won the first prize in both singles and doubles. This makes four times that Yale has won the beautifulaird costly Inter-eollegiate Cup, which was given by Hunting ton '89. It is to become the prop erty of the college first winning it seven times. Harvard has won it times, Yale 4, Brown 2, Columbia 1, Cornell, 1, As for the individual playing and Bryson, Briderers drew Miles, of Columbia, and was defeated by him, 19 games to 15. Bridgers played his usual, steady: game, while Miles played a hard, driving game, using the ''Lawford stroke" entirely. Brid gers gained most of his points in "lobbing." As for Bryson, he was very unfortunate in drawing Chace, who ranks 2nd in the United States and is a strong player. He defeat ed Bryson in two straight sets, win ning 12 games to Bryson's 3. , Bry sori's ieft hand drives were all en tirely new strokes to Chace but the latter was "death on lobbed balls," driving them into the back of the court. .' In doubles, Bridgers and Bryson, were also very unfortunate in draw ing Colby 'and Herrick, of Prince ton. They were defeated by 14 games to 9. They won the first set with hands down, (6-2) then the Princeton team caught onto their style of playing and rallied, taking the next two sets without anv trouble. The playing of Yale, Princeton, and the other colleges is entirelv different from our style, they using the Lawford stroke and having perfect control of the ball. Bridgers and Bryson,. both report having had a splendid time, and to have caught "onto" a few points of how tennis should be played. Y. M. C. A? Conference. The president of the Y. M. C.
