A 9 to 0 shut out over M. I. T. gave the Varsity courtmen an undefeated collegiate season Friday. To take the sting out of this feat, Harvard graduate Don Budges returned to set the racquetmen down with a 7 to 2 defeat.
The Engineers showed little power as Mal Moley, losing only one game, took their number one man in two short sets. Captain Don Daniels won two out of three sets to hoist another marker for the Crimson netters. Both Jack Lynch and Charlie Greenspan were forced into three sets to win. Tom Baker completed the singles sweep by an 8-6, 6-0 triumph.
The singles men teamed together to sweep the doubles match from the Tech men. The contests took only two sets and attested to the effectiveness of the Crimson doubles combinations. The Harvard netters added the Red and Grey to their collection of scalps which includes the University of Maine, Andover, Exeter, and Tufts. Members of the squad will travel to New Jersey in June in a bid for individual honors in the Intercollegiate Tennis Tournaments.
Tom Baker and Jack Lynch were the only players who were able to surpass the ability of the graduate courtmen.
