The University second team was snowed under, 8 matches to 1, by the Yale scrubs Saturday afternoon on the indoor courts of the Longwood Cricket Club at Chestnut Hill. All three doubles contests went easily to the Elis, while the Crimson secured only one singles. C. P. Holmes '22 was the only University victor, defeating Minis of Yale in straight sets, 6-3, 6-4.
The competition was closer than the total score would seem to indicate, five of the matches drawing out into three sets, and six sets being deuce. Briggs of Yale and Morss of Harvard played the longest and closest match of the afternoon, the Eli finally winning in three deuce sets, 7-5, 8-10, 7-5.
This match is the concluding contest of the season for the scrubs, who in their short career have suffered defeats in all of the three matches they have played.
The summary follows:
Singles--Bundy (Yale) defeated C. Wakefield '22 (Harvard); 6-3, 8-6; Clark (Yale) defeated H. B. Brown '22 (Harvard), 6-1, 3-6, 6-4; Foss (Yale) defeated W. I.
