Nebraska lino put forth men In the past who have attained much more than merely local fame, and no uneasiness is felt that Minnesota will not have her hanclB full In meeting us In tennis this year.

The first day will be devoted to singles, and the second to doubles. Three-games will bo played In singles, witiriwo men on' a side. There will be bit one contest, of courao, In the doubles.
