Winning all five matches, the Harvard squash team on Saturday at New haven found little trouble in defeating the Yale racquetmen.
The slowness of the courts at New Haven particularly suited the Crimson style of play, and was undoubtedly an important factor in the success of the Harvard team.
The first three matches were won comparatively easily by Harvard. W. J. Iselin '29, playing in excellent form, had no difficulty in taking three straight games from his Eli opponent, Gillespie. Ogden Phipps '31 and B. H. Whitbeck '29, playing respectively against Goodwin and Ingram of Yale, both won by comfortable margins. The last two matches, however, were much more even. In what proved to be the closest contest of the day, G. T. Francis, ocC, succeeded in vanquishing Patterson, 3 to 2, while S. B. Myers '29 avenged his defeat in the National Tourney at the hands of Mabon of Yale, by defeating his former opponent in a hard fought combat which went to five games.
The summary:
W. J. Iselin '29 defeated Gillesple (Y), 16-5, 15-11, 15-8; Ogden Phipps '31 defeated Goodwin (Y), 15-4, 15-9, 13-15, 15-10; B. H. Whitbeck '29 defeated Ingram (Y), 15-9, 15-12, 15-4; G. T. Francis, ocC. defeated Patterson (Y), 17-18, 18-17, 13-15, 18-15, 15-13; S. B. Myers '29 defeated Mabon, 12-15, 15-12, 11-15, 15-13, 15-11.
