“WILKIE COLLINS =
Makes Walter Hartright, in “The Woman in White,”
present the whole subject of Life Insurance in a
5 nutshell:
‘My father was a drawing master before me. His exer-
PROF IT-SHARING tions had made him highly successful in his profession, and
. his affectionate anxiety to provide for the future of those who
POLICIES were dependent upon his labors had impelled him from the
time of his marriage to devote to the insuring of his life a
UP TO much larger portion of his income than most men consider it
necessary to set aside for that purpose. Thanks to his admir-
$59,000.00 able prudence and self-denial, my mother and sisters were left
after his death as independent of the world as they had been
during his lifetime.”
THE PRU DENTIAL will help you to apply this
to yourself. Write for information.

INTERCOLLEGIATE TENNIS,
Harvard by Superior Play, Retains
the Cup—Poor Yale Showing.
The Seventeenth Annual Intercol-
legiate Tennis Tournament was held on
the grounds of the New Haven Lawn
Club during the past week. Play began
on Tuesday, October 4th, and continued
each successive day through Friday,
October 7th, when the finals were
played.
The preliminary round on the morn-
“ing of the first day resulted in the
defeat of Yale’s three representatives.
twin “of Harvard, the champion of
the United States, beat Dodge of Yale
6-1, 6-4. The latter had not been play-
wing. all Summer and was easily out-
classed by Whitman. ‘Davis of Har-
vard defeated Hackett of Yale in a
well played match, it requiring the three
sets to decide the outcome. ‘The score
by sets was 4-6, 6-3, 6-4. Little of
Princeton put Wagner of Cornell out
in a rather easy fashion in a two-set
erg: the score by games being 6-3,
-T.
In the first round Auchincloss of
Cornell defeated Linen of Princeton,
7-5, 11-13, 6-3. Little of Princeton
defeated Alexander of Princeton 6-3,
6-1; Ware of Harvard defeated Allen
of Yale, 6-0, 6-4. It was expected that
Allen would make a better showing
than this, but as he had not played
much in large tournaments, he was
nervous and lacked judgment at times,
but occasionally played brilliantly. It
is thought that a few tournaments like
this will give him experience and he will
be a good man another year.
The surprise of-~ the tournament
occurred when Davis of Harvard de-
feated Whitman of Harvard, the
National Champion, by the score of
2-6, 9-7, 6-0. Although Davis played
splendid tennis, still Whitman was un-
doubtedly off his game and besides is
not at his best on dirt courts.
‘Ware of ‘Harvard also defeated
Auchincloss of Cornell rather easily in
a two-set match; the score was 8-6, 6-3,
leaving two Harvard men to fight out
the finals.
Ware won rather easily from Davis
in a four-set match, the score by sets
being 6-0, 6-1, 4-6, 6-4.
The new intercollegiate champion
played by far the steadiest and most
consistent tennis in the tournament and
his drives and place shots were most
accurate. Davis suffered from a sore
foot, which handicapped him somewhat,
so did not play the strong game he did
the day before. |
The doubles began on Thursday
morning and in the first round Whit-
man and Ware of Harvard defeated
Little and Alexander of Princeton, 6-1,
6-o. In the same round Hackett and
Allen of Yale defeated Auchincloss and
Wagner of Cornell rather easily in a
two-set match, 6-4, 6-4.
In the semi-finals Whitman and
‘match by. sets was, 6-0, 1-6,
Ware of. Harvard defeated Dodge
and Noyes of Yale, 4-6, 6-3, 7-5.
The next match in this round was
a big surprise,. because the. Yale
team, Hackett and Allen, defeated
Ward and Davis of Harvard, who were
looked upon as sure winners, -since
Ward was one of. the pair, Sheldon an
ex-Yale man being his partner, who
won the National Tennis Champion- .
The score of this
-4.
In the final round, Whitman and
Ware of Harvard won from Hackett
and Allen of Yale, by the score of 6-0,
6-3, aes 6-2.
By winning both the singles and
doubles Harvard keeps the cup this
year and gets two points on the final
total.

Fora Miller Memorial,
A meeting of Ninety-Seven men was
held in the office of the Law School
Journal on Oct. 7th, to take action on
the death of Theodore W. Miller, who
‘died on July 8, from wounds received
on the charge on San Juan Hill. At
this meeting, over which Nathan A.
Smyth presided, the plan of erecting
some suitable memorial -was discussed,
such as a scholarship, bronze tablet,
gateway, or stained glass window.
Nothing definite, however, was decided
upon. Charles H. Studinski and Knox
Maddox were appointed to confer with
Ninety-Seven men living in New York,
and obtain their views.
Aye saad, Jr.GacP. Katchel and
H. H. Townshend, who were the com-
mittee appointed to draw up resolu-
tions, have reported that it seemed
more advisable to send a private letter
to Mr. Miller’s family, as the true feel-
ing of the Class could not be expressed
in formal resolutions.
