...three closely contested matches in doubles. The match between Mathey, of Princeton, and E. H. Whitney '14, was considered the most important of the singles. Mathey won this match, 7-5, 7-5, showing excellent from and an especially strong forehand, while Whitney's game was unsteady and lacked snap and precision when points were most needed.

Huntington's injury interfered much with his playing and his brilliant following back was not nearly so much in evidence as in previous games. Duncan and Sortwell were the bright spots on the Harvard offence, the latter scoring three of the goals, the former getting the other...
