s MUNICIPAL FINAL IS STIRRING SCRAP Mitchell and Markey Fall in “Marathon”—Woman’s | Crown to Moore. BY BILL DISMER, JR. GIRL and two men ‘won the right to have their names in- scribed on two Evening Star championship trophies at Rock Creek yesterday in stirring pre- ludes to the final act of the public parks tennis drama to be run off this afternoon. Sara Moore, who will team up with Dorette Miller to seek their second major doubles championship of the season in the opening match of this afternoon’s play, which will start at 1:30 pm., was crowned the local public parks woman champ yester- day when she defeated a much-im- PORTS.

"A T 3 O'CLOCK this afternoon, Welsh | and McElvenny will take oppo- | site sides of the court, with the latter given more than an even chance of | giving Barney his first local defeat | in two years. A bit stale at the end | of three weeks of tournament play, | Welsh must face a player who proved | his mettle during the last week by | defeating Dooly Mitchell and Bill | Breese on successive days. Frequently drawing applause by her continual sensational recoveries, Mrs. ‘Turney provided Miss Moore with all the competition she desired in the | first set, which ended 7—5 and in | which the winner outpointed Bobsey | by only 7, the point-score reading 43—36. Sara ran off the first three | games, dropped the fourth, won the fifth, saw Bobsey take the next two. ‘went ahead at 5—3 and then lost the | next two games, dead-locking the score | at 5—5. The highlight of the set | came in the ninth game, when the score was deuced four times, with Sara | unable to take the second point after | winning the advantage on three occa- | sions. When Mrs. Turney took the | “ad” for the first time she seized the | opportunity to take the next point to | finish the game. But it proved to be | the “shot bolt,” as Sara rallied to take the next two games, winning the last game at love. Crowd Pulls for Mitchell | THE second set went with service for | the first six games, the new champ | breaking service for the first time in| the seventh game for a 4—3 advantage. ' She passed Bobsey with a burning, placement two games later for the| match point. ! Mitchell and Markey were blasted almost off their feet by bomblike shots | which exploded at the toes of their white sneakers and were on the de- fensive all afternoon. | Judging from the reactions of the ! 200 in the stands and the countless | others looking over and beneath thei canvas that hid the court from public | view, the sympathies of the crowd | were with Mitchell. Probably realizing that the perennial favorite was play- | ing his last match in public parks| competition, the most applause rang out when the conclusion of a point favored Mitchell or his partner, Markey. And on one occasion, Dooly showed | atrikingly why he has held the affec- tion of local fans as the “perfect gen- tleman of the courts” when he forced Umpire Hugh Lynch to over-rule & decision of a linesman which favored his team but which Mitchell'lnslawdi should have been called in favor of | Welsh and McElvenny. The point in | question was replayed and won by McElvenny. Win 10 Games in Row. HOW long the blow-up lasted when | Dooly and Markey cracked near | the end of the first set is shown by the | statistics which reveal a string of 10 consecutive games which were won by Welsh and McElvenny. After break- | ing the 9—9 tie in the first set, the repeating champs romped through six straight games in the second and the | first two games of the third before the | Josers broke McElvenny’s service. At this juncture, they aroused the hopes | af their supporters by alternately tak- ing and dropping games, gaining 8 lead of 3—2, but from then on they | never were on better than even terms. After Markey tied the count at 6—6 on his service, Welsh gave his side a 7—8 advantage and when Dooly’s last public parks service fizzled the match ‘Was over. .

The sight of this energetic little Filipino rushing from court to court, answer- ing questions, giving orders and occa- sionally acting as umpire when an important match is being played or where a couple of girls can’t agree as to whether the score is 40-30 or 30-40, gives him plenty to do. Besides the tournament activities, Felix {s “in” on all pre-tourney ar- rangements, assisting in the seedings and the draw. In fact, Silvia is & mighty handy man to have around. Nice going, Felix. T'S too bad that the tournament couldn't have had a story-book ending, to have wound up in a “nat- ural”’—a singles final bringing to- gether Dooly Mitchell and Barney Welsh. In all probability this was Dooly’s last public parks appearance, for it is rumored he will join a club before long. Anyway, we'd give to Dooly the recognition of being the whitest (least tanned) player in the tournament. The fact that the perennial favorite is not more burned by tha sun is due o the fact that Dooly is finding less and less time to play. When Dooly does most of his playing it's too early in the morning for the sun to exert much of its influence. A"Wo!theot.hernetmendh- tinguished from their fellow play- ers by characteristics during the past week are: Tannest—Frank Shore. Neatest—Tom Markey. Smilingest—Hugh Lynch.
