In a challenge match yesterday, Mrs. Sauers de feated Miss Mildred Sheesley, of Paxtang, 6-2 and 6-3. The match was interesting. The winner, how ever was never in danger of losing. Her experience and splendid tennis form was in evidence throughout the play. Miss Sheesley played well at times, but was a trifle nervous. It was the second time Mrs. Sauers has defeated Miss Sheesley. It was a great day in the Greater Har risburg Tennis Tournament. The match was played at Reservoir Park. Mrs. Sauers won the first five games playing almost perfectly. Miss Sheesley showed brilliant work at periods. It was the general be lief that the serving of Miss Sheesley was more accurate than that of the champion, but the serving of Mrs. Sauers was speedy and carefully placed. Miss Slicesley Comes Hack After losing five games straight in the initial set, Miss Sheesley showed improvement and by a series of clever placements and corner shots, succeeded In annexing two games. At times, however, Miss ! Sheesley played brilliant tennis and J forced her opponent to the limit. | Mrs. Sauers' superior generalship counted. At no time did she appear I much concerned about the ultimate j outcome, though apparently some what surprised at her challenger's flashes of brilliant work. The second set was much a repe tition of the first, with the exception I that Miss Sheesley seemed more at ease and played a surer game than at the outset. The final result, however, was little in doubt after the initial set. I This is the second time that Miss ! Sheesley and Mrs. Sauers have met lin the challenge round, owing to war conditions, no city tournament was run off last season, but two years ago Miss Sheesley also won the ladies' singles and opposed the champion in the challenge round. Two years ago Mrs. Sauers won from Miss Sheesley by scores of 6-1 and 6-2, and-, the year before that she took two straight sets from Miss Kuth Starry by scores of 6-3 and 6-3. This is the fifth time that Mrs. Sauers has wone her right to the I title of city champion in ladies' singles. Bacharach's Play One Game With Klein Team The famous Bacharach Giants.
