Babcock and Curnick Lose In Doubles At Net Tourney.

William Babcock and Dwight Curnick, who entered the Indiana state tennis tournament at Indianapolis this week, were defeated in doubles by the Garland brothers, of Pittsburg, Thursday afternoon. The Garland brothers are both rated as having a great chance to annex the Indiana state tennis title and the defeat of the Rensselaer boys at their hands should not reflect on the ability of the local youths. Tn commenting on this match, the Indianapolis News says: “The Rensselaer boys showed the right spirit. After their defeat by the Garlands, one of them said, ‘We learned more tennis in these two sets than we have in the last two years.’ ”
