ONE VICTORY WILL GIVE HARVARD SQUASH TITLE

Union Boat Club Victory Over B. A. A. Eliminates Latter--Team B Defeats Milton Club 5 to 0

As a result of the squash matches in Class A on Saturday, the University's claim to the state championship is more secure than ever before. Harvard must win but one match in the meet with the Harvard Club of Boston next Saturday to clinch the title. This development came when the B. A. A. lost four of its matches to the Union Boat Club Saturday and was thereby eliminated as a contender for the championship.

In Class B the University team B defeated the Milton Club on the latter's courts, 5-0.

The summary:

J. D. DuBois '24 defeated G. N. Hurd, 15-10, 9-15, 15-11, 15-9; F. I. Carpenter '24 defeated Appleton King, 12-15, 16-13, 15-11, 15-12; P. R. Pease '26 defeated C. P. Clifford, 12-15, 15-12, 15-12, 15-17, 17-15; J. H. Finley '25 defeated J. Richardson, 16-18, 18-17, 18-15, 16-17, 16-13; G. M. Laimbeer '26 defeated J. B. Ayer, 7-15, 9-15, 15-7, 17-14, 17-14.
