By Ray Gott« 7 TO 2 IN HARVEY CUP MATCH Take First Contest * In Five To Hand HS lst Defeat Of Year; Rendueles In Upset The Convent tennis squad Saturday won its first Harvey Cup match from the high school girls’ team, 7 to 2. This was the fifth meet- ing in the seven-match ser- ies for the Harvey Cup. The high school won the first four straight. ) Remarkabley enough, no match went over two sets in Saturday’s lopsided ‘ af. fair. The closest contest of| the day was the third doub-| One Will Crown The Queen Alonzé scored; Rios pointy to: i les which the Convent’s Judy Trevor and Betty Fairfield won, 6-3, 6-4, from Terry Ann Parrish and Vita Barrosa. The high school’s top star, Helen McDonald was ill and couldn’t play. In her place, Terry Ann Parrish took to the court against Eleanor Gato. The Con vent’s Gate had little trouble walking away with the match, 6-1, 6-1. Elea- nor’s superior experience and power simply over- whelmed the game Terry Ann. In the number two singles, the high school’s ravored June Yates was upset decisively by Maria Rendueles, 6-2, 6-2. The big ad- vantage that Mafio had was sup- erior speed on the court. Her op- ponent apparently had not been practicing as much as she should because she let some easy one: get by her. Barbara Twiehaus of the Con- vent downed Faye Curry in the number three singles, 6-1, 6-3. Her advantage lay in a superior net game and better service. The number four single: saw Betty Fairfield ride past Dolores Villate, 6-2, 6-2. It was Betty all the way, principally because of the forehand which she used most of the time. It had plenty of power and had Dolores completely baf- fled. The high school took its contest of the day when Vita rosa defeated her sister, Gay Lou, 6-3, 6-2. Vita never stops driv- ing; her spirit on the court is the real advantage she has whenever she plays. Added to this was thej.ed fact that she had _ considerabl) more experience than her sister. In the final singles match, Judy Trevor of the Convent had little toruble with Alice Vila as she won, 6-2, 6-3. The first doubles matched Alice Vila and June Yates of the high! school against the Convent’s Elea- nor Gato and Barbara Twiehaus. It- looked as if duo of Villa and Yates weren't trying very hard as the Convent pair won, 6-1, 6-0. Dolores Villate and Faye Curry of the high school took the second match of the day for their team as they downed the Convent’s Marie Rendueles and Gay Lou Barrosa, 6-4, 6-0. The third doubles, closest match of the day, saw Terry Ann Par- rish and Vita Barrosa bowing to Judy Trevor and Betty Fairfield, 6-3, 6-4. The Convent pair were hard put to it to seek out a victyro in the second set. Saturday’s play on the navy courts was over much quicker than usual. The matches began about 9 a.m. and were over by 2:30 p.m. This was the high schools first + Kittie eo wan t | Putter to Otto Graham (second Sheridan (left), as queen.
