Feature Editor) The girls' national indoor tennis championship has just . changed hands, but it didn't stray far, for it is still in possession of the fam- three years. Beyond the mere statement thal Miss Mianne Palfrey of Brookline defeated her sister, Miss Sarah Palfrey, in the final singles and teamed with her sister to win the doubles title, there is a chapter in American sports history that has few, if any, precedents. Year ago John G. Palfrey, an at- torney of greater Boston, and his wife' were tennis enthusiasts, they are to this day. they only “played at” the gawe. But as their family of six young- sters grew, each was. taught to hold a racket and was instructed in the rudiments of the game. Polly - was the eldest. Then n order were Lee, Mianne, Joanna and John. In the earlier years superior age and experience counted for everything and vic- tories, therefore, were in order of seniority. But presently Sarah and Mianne forged to the front as the family champions in doubles, while Sarah became the leader in singles play. Their supremacy was indicated back in 1926 when Mianne was a st in the girls' national in- championships. That same she and Sarah won the Mas- | ye: tied up the girls’ national indoor tennis. titles. 50,000 caw the Cubs lose to the visitors.

The spring of 1927 found Mianne, Sarah and Lee all playing in the girls' national indoor champion- ships. Mianne and Sarah got to the finals and Sarah won. They teamed together in the doubles and won that title. In the summer of 1927 Sarah won four titles in the Massachusetts juvenile tourney. Sarah and Polly as|entered the Essex county club tour- They say |nament and were only eliminated respectively, by Helen Wills and Molla Mallory.
