...playing a strong game at the net. One of the best played matches of the afternoon was that between F. J. Sulloway and F. W. Cole. Although Sulloway won in straight sets, the play was much closer than the score indicates. The cross-court drives of both men were fast and sure. Sulloway won by playing a more accurate and steadier game than his opponent. A. J. Wertheimer won the first set of his match with P. L.

Throughout the game the Yale backs appeared to be too fast for their line, in spite of the fact that the Syracuse attack was especially weak...
