TENNIS TEAM ELECTS INGRAHAM AS CAPTAIN

STRATEGY OF PAIRING STAVED OFF DEFEAT

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Arthur Ingraham, Jr. '30, of Oakland, Rhode Island, has been elected captain of the Harvard tennis team for the ensuing year, succeeding B. H. Whitbeck '29, it was announced last night. The election, as is customary, is subject to the approval of the athletic committee.

Ingraham prepared at Exeter, where he played No. 2 on the tennis team his senior year. On the 1930 Freshman team he was No. 3, a position which he held this year until the probation of M. T. Hill '30 moved Ingraham up to second ranking.

The fact that Ingraham won all but one of his doubles matches is an evidence of the tennis strategy which made this year's season so successful. Meeting the strong-Eastern teams, Columbia, N. Y. U., Penn, Williams, and Yale, Harvard would usually lose two or three of the singles matches to the luminaries of the opposing team, Yale's Ryan and Luce, Penn's Stanger and Lavine, William's Wolf and Chase, N. Y. U.'s Harte and Tarangoli as the case might be. But meeting the same men paired in the doubles matches, the Harvard team would come back to capture two or three of the trio of dual contests, to the same pairs that had originally quashed the Crimson players individually.
