FREDDY WATSON WINS A LEG
On the Famous Tennis Cup Miss
Bogart Wins Championship Again
James and Dundy Too Fast for 8 aim
and Arpnjl tn Doublet-91 Id
Winter Tournament
FEEDDY WATSON,
playing from the West
chester Country Club
added one more to his
innumerable champion
ships of his busy life
with the racquet, and
engraved his name on
one leg of the Pinehurst
Cup, with evident intentions o finstal
ling it in his crowded trophy room in
due course . However, he had his work
cut out for him before ever he got safely
away with it. Whitehead pushed him for
fifty-two games in the semi-final of three
sets, and in the final round Nathan Bun
dy of Norfolk ran the match into deuce
sets. Watson started the offensive, and
rushed the play until he had both the
first two sets in his locker, 6 4, 6 4.
But the game had just started. Bundy
took to the net, and in spite of a long
drawn and beautiful exhibition of lob
bing in Watson's best style, smashed
down the defense to such good purpose
that he won the third set 6 2, and the
fourth 6 4. So far it was certainly
an even thing, with the chances on form
a little with Watson, and on mathematics
a little with Bundy. It seemed to be a
case of reserves. For at this stage Wat
son let loose an altogether unexpected
fury and swept into victory 6 1.
Miss Carolyn Bogartf of the Magnolia
Farm, and sometime of Elizabeth, New
Jersey, title holder and challenger in
the Women's Singles, held her own and
repeated her triumph in the annual Mid
winter Tennis championship played on
the Country Club courts this last week.
She defeated Miss Marjorie Lake in the
final round gently but firmly 6 0, 6 2,
having already disposed of Mrs. Jay
Hall and Miss Judith Jenks of Detroit
in straight games, in which she lost at no
time more than one game in a set.
Nathan Bundy and E. L. James of
Saratoga won the men's doubles, in final
contest with George Aranyi and Count
Otto Salm, 16, 61, 62, 64. We
despair of making better analysis than
the inimitable account sent in by the
A. P man, so let us quote:
' ' Aranyi and Salm, inseparable part
ners in many tournaments during the
past two years, are of course thoroughly
acquainted with each other's game,
whereas Bundy and James played as
partners for the first time in this tour
nament, and lack of team work cost
them the first set by the discouraging
odds of six to one. Then they pulled
together and started an aggressive joint
attack on the one weak spot of their op
ponents ' armor Salm's defensive work
in the back court. They got to Salm,
so to speak, and hammered him so un
mercifully throughout the balance of the
match that Aranyi and he lost three sets
running and only won seven of the con
cluding twenty-five games.
Miss Marjorie Lake and Salm had
their innings and revenge in the mixed
doubles, where they met Miss Bogart,
the singles champion, and N. A. Eose,
the Longwood expert, in the final round,
and trimmed them 6 4, 6 2.
Putting Contest
The weekly putting match . held for
women on the big clock before the Coun
try Club was won from a large field last
Sturday by Mrs. E. C Bliss, who made
the twelve positions in 22 shots.
and hence dropped from the running at
each of the eighteen holes, and hence
duly determined that the old champion
was left alone and in undisputed com
mand by the time he reached the club
house then his troubles began. The
question was, having won whatever he
chose to select from an entire bazaar of
porcelains and silverware, coffee cups
with golden filigree and embossed and
engraved percolaters, which to select
As far as we know the problem is still
unsolved and insoluble.
Sharing the perplexity is II. G. Street
of Wykagyl. He survived in the second
division as Truesdell survived in the
first.
