NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Beckman Pool '32, state and intercollegiate Squash Racquets champion, added another championship to his rapidly mounting string on Sunday, when he won the Gold Racquets tournament at Cedarhurat, Long Island. This tournament, held every year at the Rockaway Hunting Club, is one of the more important ones of the season, many of the leading players of the country competing.

Pool won the tournament by defeating W. P. Dixon '25 in the semi-finals, 15-11, 15-12, 15-13, and by beating Jay Iselin '29, 15-7, 15-9, 15-12. Although Pool had no trouble in winning from Dixon and Iselin, he had a close five game match with Perry Pease of the New York Tennis and Racquet Club earlier in the tournament. Iselin entered the finals by defeating George D. Debovoise '26 in a close match, 17-14, 18-14, 15-13, having defeated the present National Champion, J. L. Pool '28, Beckman Pool's brother, on Saturday.
