No Let

Last week in Detroit, Myles Baker of Boston met W. Palmer Dixon of New York in the finals of the national amateur squash racquets tournament. Mr. Dixon was defending his title. The match was hotly contested but as it progressed spectators realized that Mr. Baker would soon be the new champion. What seemed to be the last point was played; Mr. Baker seemed to have won it. "Let!" called the referee, thereby giving Mr. Dixon an opportunity to replay the point. The falling title-holder smiled; displayed excellent sportsmanship by crying, "No let!" rushed across the court to congratulate his conqueror.

In New York Clarence C. Pell of that city met Hewitt Morgan also of that city in the finals of the national amateur racquets tournament, Mr. Morgan having previously disposed of Stanley G. Mortimer, defending champion. Mr. Pell smashed hard drives to the front wall; drove the ball close to one side wall and then close to the other; employed a baffling change of pace; overwhelmed his opponent, 15-4, 15-9, 15-7. Winning is no novelty to Mr. Pell. At the conclusion of this tournament he found himself U. S. singles champion for the eighth time, co-holder of the U. S. doubles title, Canadian singles champion, co-holder of the Canadian doubles title. He and Mr. Morgan have sailed for England where they will represent the U. S. in the English doubles competition.
