Play in the University fall tennis tournaments has progressed steadily without interruption from the weather, and with only one upset recorded. Three men have reached the fifth round in the singles play, Captain J. F. W. Whitbeck '27, B. H. Whitbeck '29, and Frank Donovan 1L. Joseph Van Ende 1 G.B. furnished a surprise by defeating M. T. Hill '30, a seeded player, to enter the fourth round. All other seeded men have advanced without difficulty.
In the doubles tournament, the four seeded teams have reached the third round without mishap. J. H. Appleton '29 and Robeson Balley '29, last year's Freshman combination, have showed up strongly.
In the Union tennis tournaments, the matches with few exceptions have not progressed beyond the second stage. The four favored doubles combinations, C. R. Hamlen '29 and G. H. Perkins 1G., P. M. Lenhart '27 and T. E. Jansen Jr. 1L, T. O. Kingsbury 27 and Stephen Thompson '27, M. T. Hill '30, and Edward Ward '30, have reached the second round without being extended.
