UNIVERSITY TENNIS FOUR BEATS LAWYERS SOUNDLY

Lincoln's Inn went down to a decisive 5-1 defeat yesterday before the four ranking University tennis stars, in a practice match on the Divinity Courts. This four man combination, which will also encounter Dartmouth next Saturday, proved itself almost invincible against opponents of reputation and experience.

After winning the first set from Kunkel, Middle Atlantic doubles champion, Ingraham, playing number one for Harvard, dropped the second in eight games. Hopes for a victory waned as the deciding set dragged on to the six all. Finally, however, Ingraham snatched the match from defeat by winning 8-6. Against Coleman, a semi-finalist in the University fall tournament, Captain Pfaffmann went down to a bad defeat. Briggs, playing third for the University against Auger of Lincoln's Inn displayed brilliant tennis in rapidly disposing of his rival. A fast three set match between the number four men started strong for Lincoln's Inn, then the outcome balanced, and finally fell on the Harvard side, Cummings had defeated Farnham, a member of the University team two years ago, 4-6, 6-3, 6-0.

The doubles combinations worked surprisingly well, especially in view of the fact that it was the first time Briggs and Cummings had played together. In the first doubles Ingraham and Pfaffmann played both sets as they played the second against Anderson and Lang of Columbia.
