HAVERFORD, PA., Oct. 3, 1907.--All the Harvard men in the intercollegiate tennis tournament won their matches again today. This leaves four Harvard men, three Pennsylvania men, and one Yale man still in the play. N. W. Niles '09 played a poor three-set match against Gordon of Princeton in which the latter was defeated, 2-6, 6-3, 6-3. Dabney did not have to play as he drew a bye.

The tense tragedy of the final moment is well done. Mr. Simon's "The Blue Coat" tells the story of a poor Russian peasant woman following with high hopes on the trail of the husband who has sought a new home in this country. She discovers he has found a new bride and forgotten the old. It is an elemental bit of tragedy well handled...
