interest in tho gamo.
Tennis is a gamo that appeals to
a much larger class of students than
almoat any othor form of inter-col-Jegiato
athletics for tho reason that
it does not make such a severe tax
upon tho physical endurance of tho
player as othor sports and can bo
thoroughly enjoyed even If tho player

letics that has been .almost entirely

At other western colleges tennis oc
cupies a place among those coljogo
athletics that attract the attention of
tho students through tho honor that
attaches to tho successful player.

that a bureau be established to givo
