The varsity tennis team trimmed Dartmouth, 6 to 3, Friday in its last match of the season on indoor courts at the Brookline Country Club and the Badminton and Tennis Club. The Yardling match with the freshmen was rained out meanwhile, so that the Crimson freshmen ended the year with a perfect record, the first for any postwar freshman team.
Captain Bob Bramhall at second singles won the hardest match of the day, 15-13, 6-2, for his last varsity victory. Seniors Bayard Robb at five and Paul Tobias at six also played their last matches with Tobias winning and Robb losing in three sets.
Charlie Ufford, the captain-elect, also won a three-set match at one from Captain Joe Welch of Dartmouth. But Art French and Dave Watts at third and fourth singles respectively lost to tie up the match, 3 to 3, going into the doubles.
The Crimson swept the three doubles, however, to clinch the victory and a 5-3 Eastern Intercollegiate Tennis League record. Bramhall and Bill Goodman at one, Ufford and French at two, and Watts and Hugh Nawn at three all won.
