RORY MACPHERSON BECOMES COLONY SQUASH CHAMPION
By “ARGONAUT”
!
In a closely contested final that was a fitting con- clusion to the 1953-1954 Colony Squash Open Champion- ship, Rory Macpherson yesterday edged out the holder, Cmdr. J. L. Rigge by 9-6, 4-9, 9-4, 3-9 and 9-7 to become the new Champion.
Featured by long and hard-hitting rallics, the match reached a thrilling fifth set when the score stood at 7-7.
