...trophy is valued at $500. The change from the rather worn-out idea of a cup to something new and different is a good one. The plaque will be less unwieldy than a cup, and will make a very handsome ornament for the wall of the Athletic Club that wins...
...RACKETS.- We have the best thing in this line that has yet been produced-waterproof stringing. Dampness is the great enemy to racket strings and the prolific cause of much looseness and breakage.

In the second round Marquand forced the fight at first, but toward the end fought as the defensive and Grew did the forcing. Grew worked...
