Bryn Mawr Defeated
By Vassar In Tennis
Perry, Doubles Team Victories
Bring Final Score: To 2-3
Loss for Varsity
‘MERION CRICKET LOSES
_
Saturday dawned bright and clear,
a perfect day for tennis, exeept for
‘the breeze, which was cool enough to
discourage. sun backs and _ strong
enough to whip up little dust storms
from. the courts. It was a day that
inspired some feautiful tennis, al-
though Var bowed .to Vassar by
the score of 3-2. However, scores are
not everything and Varsity as a.whole
played extremely good tennis, though
their Boston rivals proved just a lit-
tle better.
Betty Faeth was tip against the
most formidable opponent she has met
this season, Helen Jones, a champion
from the regions of Boston. Although
Faeth lost both sets, 6-3, 6-3, she play-
ed excellently, time and again. making
neat placement shots that called forth
enthusiastic clapping from the specta-
tors.
Betty Perry, as seems to be her
custom, drew her match out to three
hard-fought sets, but finally came
through to victory, the only successful
singles: player of the day. She and
her opponent, Margot Lee, were two
of the most perfectly matched players
that it has ever been our lot to see.
Both played a deliberate, steady game,
and each slowly rolled up her score
until it ‘seemed as though the. games
would mount to the twenties before
either gained a lead or two.
Peggy Jackson, in spite of many
admirable plays, was finally defeated
after running her match up to three
sets.
steadier player, lost to Miss Wright,
whose hard drives made up for her
somewhat erratic playing.
Because of Perry’s lengthy match,
it was almost one o’clock by the time
Faeth and Perry faced Jones and
Ellis for the doubles match. In spite
of the fact that both, Betty Faeth and
Betty Perry had had real work-outs
in their singles matches, they man-
aged to down the Vassar team in short
order, thus bringing the Bryn Mawr
count up to two. against. Vassar’s
three.
Summary:
First Singles—Jones, Vassar, VS.
Faeth, B. M., won by Jones, 6-3, 6-3.

Wednesday, May 8.—The Varsity
Tennis Team defeated the Merion
Cricket Club with .the decisive’ seore
of 5-0. Many of the matches were
one-sided; Miss Perry’s game, how-
ever, Was carried to three sets. Miss
Faeth won her two sets; the first one
had the easy score of 6-0, but the sec-
ond one, in which Miss Faeth seemed
somewhat tired, had: the closer score
of 6-4. Miss Faeth as usual played a
steady, even game, making profitable
use of her favorite stroke, which is a
deep, strong forehand ‘drive.
Betty Perry, playing Ruth Gum-
mery, of the Merion Cricket Club, lost
her first set with a score of 6-4. She
managed to get into her game early in
the second® set and kept the lead
throughout that and the third sets,
making scores of 6-3 and 6-4, respect-
ively. :
The score got both of Miss Jack-
son’s sets was 6-1. Miss Jackson’s
steady playing and accurate placing
easily overeame an able opponent.
Miss Little also defeated her oppon-
ent by using the same sort of neat
placement shots. Her scores were 6-1
in the first set and 6-3 in the second.
Only one doubles match was played
with Faeth and Perry playing for
Bryn Mawr against Gummery and
Daly, of the Merion Cricket Club. In
spite of the fact that they had al-
ready played their singles matches,
Faeth and Perry played a strong, fast
game, which ended with the score of
6-1 in both sets.
