Jack Stone played number four dur ing the latter part of the season. Lack ing in experience his won and lost record was not so • impressive but he improved rapidly daring these match es. He is the only member of the team not graduating and by next year he should be an excellent player. The doubles team, composed of Campbell and Hay lost only two sets during the season. They formed a great, combination at the net. This combination could always be depended on for a needed victory. South Georgia State College at Douglas was challenged by West Georgia for the mythical Southeaster Junior College Championship but they did not accept.

Undefeated West Georgia Tennis-Team Claims State Championship AMERICUS DEFEATED 4-0 BY GREAT W. G. C. TEAM The West Georgia .tennis team de feated Georgia Southwestern 40 at Amertcus on May 18. Each member of the team played the best tennis of which he is capable in this match. Beverly Campbell probably starred as he played the best.tennis of his col legiate career to defeat Dan Grahl b-3, do, dI. Grahl did not have a chance against Campbell’s terrific forehand, brilliant backhand and general all around steadiness. Beverly jumped into an early lead which he maintain ed throughout the entire match. Harris Hay played his usual excel lent game and defeated llayes Mc- Math 0-4, 63, 6-3. Me Math was a splendid player but he was never in the game so far as a chance at victory was concerned. This match did furnish some pretty tennis for the rather large crowd of spectators that witnessed the matches. Norwood Plovd defeated Clarence Graddick in a terrifically hard-fought encounter 63, 26, 6-4, 5-7, 0-3. In every set Floyd had to try to over come a 2 0 lead that Graddick always managed to gain. Graddick was lead ing 3-1 in the fifth set when Floyd suddenly regaTlfed his form, lie Won 5 straight games and, incidentally, the match. Campbell amd Hay defeated M'c- Math and Grahl <512, 0 3 to demon strate again that they are one of the host doubles teams in any junior col lege in the state. Their team-play was faultless, and they covered every inch of the court perfectly, with con fusion. Both Campbell amd Hay play ed extremely well at the net. Georgia Southwestern fell victim to the undefeated West Georgia tennis team 3-1 on the Carrollton courts on May 11. These matches furnished two five set encounters, Beverly Campbell win ning his match from Dan Grahl and Norwood Floyd losing West Georgia’s one match to Clarence Graddick All of the matches were well played and they were all hard fought with the exception of the May-Mc- Math match which Hay won 6-2, 6-2, 6 1. Hay didn’t give McMath a chance at any time during the match. He was good on the back line; he was excellent in midcourt; and, he couldn't be passed at the net, so it was just a case of McMath trying to do the im possible that day at least. Hay was decidedly the superior player. ■ Campbell simply outsteadied his op ponent. to win. Gralil gave him a tough fight. He carried him to five sets be foro losing, but Beverly just kept im proving throughout the match. If he had played as well all through the match as he did in the fifth set the match would have been much shorter. Clarence defeated Norwood Floyd in another Marathon match that ■lasted several minutes over three hours. The scores were 9-33, 8-6, 5-7, 6-0, 6-2. Floyd was almost exhausted in the final two sets after being forced to run from one side of the court to the oflM>r by Graddick’s excellent plac ing of shots. Hay and Campbell won the doubles 6-3, 6-4. They defeated McMath and Graddick. This was just another case of Campbell and Hay’s being just too good for the opposition.

C. NET MEN In the final match of the season the men's tennis team defeated Alabama State Teachers’ College in Jackson ville to the tune of 3-0. Harris Hav easily trimmed Edward Howell the rival Number one man 6 2, <5 1. Hay played excellent tennis throughout" the match. He made se veral beautiful returns of balls that loooked impossible to get. These re turned seemed to break Sewell’s spirit. Beverly Campbell defeated James Williams 10 8, 4-0, 7-5 after ho was apparently beaten, Beverly was trail ing 4-1 in the last set with Williams serve coming up. At this point he broke through Williams’ serve, wiu ning his own, this time breaking through he tied the score at 5-5. With the score tied he didnot feel the pres sure so keenly for he quickly ran out the set by winning the next two games. Norwood Floyd defeated his number three opponent, Glenn Nelson, 6-2, 6-3. There w'hs never much doubt as to the outcome of this match as Nelson lack ed the steadiness to compete with Floyd. With the score 4-3 Floyd broke through Nelson and then won his own serve t u w 7 in tho set and the match. The doubles were called on ac count of darkness with West Georgia leading 2-love in the third set. I guess you all heard about the mess Screws got into.

Thelma Andrews defeated her south paw opponent, Tiny Cordell, 6-3, 10-8. Thelma easly won the first set as Miss Cordell could not compete with her hard driving game. She ran into trouble in the second set. Miss Cor dell, playing a steadier game of tennis than she did in the first set, had two set points but she was never able to win them. Thelma rallied ond tied the score at 5 all and then finally the set and match at 10-8. Imogene Allgood defeated Pauline Longin 0 6-2, 1-6, 6-3. Pauline gave Miss Allgood a terrific battle before being defeated. After losing the first set Pauline played a superior brand of tennis but she seemed exhausted for the final set. She was not able to cover the court as well as she had been doing and Miss Allgood, by ex cellent placing of shots, won the de ciding set. Grace Wing defeated Margaret Ware in a number three singles en gagement 6-1, 6-1. Grace played ex cellent tennis throughout the match, and she didn’t give her opponent a chance. She was simply unbeatable for that day at least. Ruth Staples defeated Martha All bright for West Georgia’s third singles victory of the day 6-2, 6-2. Ruth was in every way superior to her oppon ent. The scores are just about a true measure of tho difference between the two girls. i Miss Andrews and Miss Longino COMPLIMENTS OF H. C.

Grace Wing and Ruth Staples de feated Katherine Bishop and Lucy Carlton for West Georgia’s doubles victory 6-1, 6-3. From the first game until the last one it was just a ques tion of how many games the West Georgia girls would let their victims have. The girls’ tennis team defeated Oox College on the College Park courts 2-1. Thelma Andrews defeated Imogene Allgood 62, 6-3 to take the number one singles. There was not much ex citement to this match as Thelma was the decidedly better player. Grace Wing lost to Sara Cordell 7-5, 6-3 in the No. three angles.
