...most spectacular match in the doubles was between R. L. Lipman 3L and L. A. de Turenne '21 against G. C. Guild '23 and R. W. Hoskins '23.

Only the greater experience and careful play of the veteran players enabled Lipman and de Turenne to win 6--1, 6--4. In the other doubles contests C. Hyams '20 and J. B. Fenno '21 won from R. Weaver '21 and C. E. Dickerson '20 by a score of 6--3, 6--4, while the match...
