...second singles, captain Charlie Hamm won the only quick match of the day, 15-5, 15-7, 15-6. On courts as hot as those in Annapolis such a score is astonishing. The squash ball heats up and bounds like a ping-pong ball around the court, making the put-away shots which are so necessary in regulation courts almost impossible.

Below Emmet, captain Charlie Hamm met equally little opposition in winning 15-5, 18-16, 15-4, but Fred Vinton, playing third in place of the injured Tim Gallwey, dropped a game before downing his man 15-7 and 15-8 in the last two games.

Below these two, Barnaby will have Tim Gallwey, Fred Vinton, Pete Lund, John Davis, Charlie Poletti, Wally Stimpson and Tony Lake rounding out one of the most balanced, powerful lineups he has ever put on a court. Of the seven men below Hamm and Emmet, almost one one of them could hold down the third position without greatly impairing the Crimson's effectiveness. However, the elements at Annapolis...

The power and consistency of Hamm's shots kept his opponent in constant trouble, and the Crimson captain ran out the match with little difficulty...
This afternoon, however, Amherst will not have the depth or experience to cope with the Crimson's powerful forces. The varsity will use its usual lineup, with captain Charlie Hamm at number one, followed by Gerry Emmet, Pete Lund, Tim Gallwey, Fred Vinton, John Davis, Tony Lake, Wally Stimpson and Charlie Poletti...
