A. J. Boyden '95 and H. R. Simonds '96 defeated E. H. Pool '95 and A. S. Pier '95 in the final round of the doubles yesterday.

Boyden and Simonds won chiefly through their steadiness. Boyden's lobs were effective and during the first two sets both frequently passed their opponents when the latter were at the net. Pool and Pier, although they played the faster game, were wild and showed lack of practice. Pier put up the best game of all four of the men. His net game was good and his long, low drives from the back-court were very effective.

Boyden and Simonds easily won the first two sets. They gained their points partly by their steady play and better team-work, and partly by the wildness of their opponents. The third set was close. Pool and Pier took a brace and won the first three or four games. Boyden and Simonds went to pieces a little and made several errors in team-work; they regained their confidence, however, and made the score 4 all by good play. Pool and Pier then won the next two games and the set, 6-4. Boyden and Simonds improved in the last set and won it by careful and steady all-round work. The score by sets is as follows: 6-2, 6-1, 4-6, 6-3.
