The boys have been working out for a couple of weeks, but Leigh ton withheld the official season in order that several players on the Nut House squad would be able to compete in the National AAU tournament in Oklahoma City, Okla. Three returning lettermen will provide the backbone for this year's squad. Robert Slezak, Jack Cady and Woody Ostergard will all be back for another fession on the courts. Leighton has four other men who he feels will bolster the team in the coming conference season. Don MacArthur. who was ineli gible last year, was one of the best high school tennis stars who ever played far Lincoln high. Jamie Curran, up from the fresh man team from last year, will be a strong contender.
