The number of entrties increased considerably at the last minute, though it is still belosw what was hoped for. It was thought by some that interest in tennis had died out somewhat this year and that the spring meet would not be up to the ene last year. However, the play yesterday was lively and for the most part sharply contested. Danforth defeated Warrener 7-5, 6-4; Wilbur defeated Benson 6-2, 6-1; Mee defeated Woods 6-4, 3-6, 6-3.
