Only number one player Corky Graham looked sharp for the Midshipmen; he tripped Frank Ripley, 6-4, 6-3, and then teamed with John Owens to beat Ripley and Bob Inman, 6-4, 6-2, at first doubles. But Dave Benjamin, Clive Kileff, Chum Steele, and Dean Peckham won straight-set singles matches, and the teams of Steele-Peckham and Benjamin-Kileff won the last two doubles to clinch the match...

...Fitzgibbon and his erratic partner, Speed Howell, to preserve the lead and Princeton's unbeaten season against Chum Steele and Dean Peckham. Steele had beaten Howell in singles, 7-5, 4-6, 6-3, rallying from a 5-1 deficit in the first set and upsetting Howell with needle-sharp passing shots...
