MACON—ATLANTA.
SIGMA ALPHA EPSILON
FRATERNITY WON
Defeated All Competitor. In Mercer’s
Annual Tennie Tourney and Now
Holds Championship — Final Gama
Played Yesterday Afternoon.
After a number of postponements on
account of rain and pold the final game
of Mercer’a tennis tournament was
played yesterday between the Sigma
Alpha Epsilon and the Fhl Delta Theta
teams. The match was handily taken
by the S. A. E.'s In two straight seta.
Score: 6-4; 6-2. The result proved
quite a surprise. Those who had bqen
supporting the S. A. E.’s from the open,
lng of the tournament were surprised
at the play yeaterday. No matter to
what point Capers and Nichols, the
two Theta players, smsahed the ball,
either Ogburn or Welker were on hand
to receive IL After five minutes of
play had expired It was seen that the
Thetas were outclassed, both at ser
vice and In the returns. The Kappa
Alpha court, upon which the match was
played, was In good condition and the
attendance was large and fully appre
ciated the play.
Great interest was centered In the
outcome of the game aa the two teams
have for yeara been rivals. Up to the
opening of yesterday's match the
Thetas' team had a percentage of 1000
having defeated in turn five of the
other clubs entered. Tho winners also
entered the match with a clean record.
Now that the tournament has been
completed the governing board of Mer
cer's Tennis Association will begin the
task of arranging for a trl-meet be
tween the champlonahlp teams in
doubles of Emory College. Mercer, and
the University of Georgia. Overtures
for such a meet have been made in
previous years but little has been the
result The main object of the tourna
ment Just completed was to arouse In
terest In the sport nmong the Mercer-
lans so that a triangular contest, should
one be arranged, would be firmly
backed by the student body.
As soon as the students return to
college at the expiration of the Christ
mas holidays the secretary of the gov
erning board will bo instructed to cor
respond with the tennis men of Georgia
and Emory In order to ascertain Just
how those Institutions view the pro
posed meet. Mercer wishes to play in
Macon and It is very probable that the
teams will meet here.

Lemon Juice
Varioua experiment* by em
inent scientists have proven the
great value of lemons in de
stroying the germs of typhoid
and other fevers. Germs of
diseases are deposited in the
system by the failure of the
bowels to act regularly. MOZ-
LEY’S LEMON ELIXIR is an
ideal laxative, made from the
juice of pure lemons, and has
no equal for oleaneing the eye-
tern of all impurities.. It acts
promptly on the bowels, liver
end kidneys, and does not gripe
or cause any unpleasantness.
