Youngsters Proved Too Much. For Rowles Court Tennis Club.
A splendid, tennis tournament last Saturday afternoon between the Rowles court tennis club and the'Washburn court tehnis club resulted in a decided victory for the latter, who won all six' sets played. It is quite probable that other contests will follow if the Weather permits. The Rowles court-club was represented by Superintendent Dean, Principal Sharp, Profs. Coe and Burchard, of the high school, and James Warner and Elvyn Allman. The Washburn court by Alfred Thompson, Rev. J C. Parrett, Harry English, William Babcock, George Healey and Sani Duvall. Duvall and Healey defeated Coe and Burchard; English and Babcock defeated Allman and Warner, and Thompson and Parrett / defeated Dean and Sharp. The last named played a spirited duece set in completing the tournament, Thompson and Parrett winning. Tennis is fine sport and several of the players are becoming quite expert at it.
