University Squash Title Is Taken by George Hartford

In an exceedingly close match at the University squash courts, George H. Hartford '34 defeated John M. Hall 2L yesterday afternoon to win the University squash championship. The scores of the three individual games comprising the contest were respectively 15-6, 17-16, and 17-16.

During the first game Hartford was able to place his shots with accuracy and to maintain an early lead with comparatively little difficulty. Hall, however, drew his opponent into a fast, hard-hitting rallies in the last two games. Then the outcome depended largely on the endurance of each contestant. Hartford won the final point of both of the last two games by dropping the ball on the tell-tale, far out of reach of Hall.
