An unusual interest was manifested in the fall tennis tournaments this year, both those under the auspices of the college team and of the Hanover Country Club attracting a large number of entrants. S. B. Smith ' 10, captain of the, college team and winner of the New England Intercollegiate championship last spring, easily won the college championship by defeating F. H. Harris 'll in the final round, 6-2, 6-3, 6-0. In the Country Club tournament, however. Smith met defeat at the hands of Dr. E. H. Carleton, in one of the longest matches ever played in Hanover. The match lasted four hours without intermission, while seventy-one games were necessary before Doctor Carleton was returned the winner. The score was 7-5.. 5-7, 6-3, 4-6, 15-13.
