HAVERFORD, PA., Oct. 2, 1907.--In the first round of the twenty-seventh annual tournament of the Intercollegiate Laws Teennis Association here today all the members of the University team came through without a defeat. N. W. Niles '09 had a hard three-set with Spaulding of Yale, which was regarded as the best contest of the day, and makes Niles appear to have a good chance to win the tournament...
...Hall is a player of unusual ability and will command the confidence of all. His football experience has been exceedingly varied, for he has played on teams representing the Malden High School, the Hopkinson School and the 1907 Freshman class.

We do not mean that a defeat today will detract from the credit which the team has earned in previous games; but it cannot be denied that the final series is the most important factor in determining whether the season shall be considered successful or not. We are confident that our team at its best...
