...dopesters by defeating Arnold Jones Jr., who has been under the special tutelage of William T. Tilden, who is now second in the National ranking list, in two close sets, 7-5, 6-3. Only last year Jones defeated Ingraham for the National Boys' Championship. Beside being the mainstay of the Woonsocket team, Ingraham plays on the Providence Tennis Club sextet, which triumphed over the University last Wednesday. Next fall he intends to enter Exeter for a year's preparation before coming to the University...
...fastest match of the afternoon was that in which Tilden encountered Captain G. W> Helm '20, and in two hard sets defeated him 6-3, 6-2. In an exciting three-set match, L. A. deTurenne '21, conquered Dana, a mainstay of the Providence raqueters...

Duane was the mainstay of the yearlings, and by his succession of well-placed ground strokes and steady all-round play, and ably seconded in the doubles by A. D. Knox, wrested both of his matches from his opponents...

The feature of the meet is expected to be the mile run, when Captain O'Connell opposes Thomas McDermott, Cornell's veteran...
...which the seven-man team was used. The University defeated Princeton 6 to 3. If the scores be compared and allowance made for the differences between the Pavilion and the Philadelphia rink, the Yale and University teams would seem to be nearly equal in strength. The centers are the mainstay of the Yale forward line, playing a very aggressive game, being especially brilliant in short passing. Carson and Ingalls are the most spectacular individual players on the Yale team, and their ability will meet its test in the effort to slip through the Crimson defense...
